Figure 6From: Boosting the free fatty acid synthesis of Escherichia coli by expression of a cytosolic Acinetobacter baylyi thioesteraseOptimization of the expression level of ‘AcTesA. The ‘AcTesA under the control of T7 promoter (LL8, LL18 and LL28) achieved much higher FFAs production than it under the control of ara BAD promoter (LL38, LL48 and LL58). The strain LL18 using a medium copy number plasmid (pACYCDuet-1) achieved the highest FFAs production (551.3 mg/L).Back to article page
