Polyhydroxybutyrate production by recombinant Escherichia coli based on genes related to synthesis pathway of PHB from Massilia sp. UMI-21

Abstract Background Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is currently the most common polymer produced by natural bacteria and alternative to conventional petrochemical-based plastics due to its similar material properties and biodegradability. Massilia sp. UMI-21, a newly found bacterium, could produce PHB fr...
