Metabolic strategies for alkane production. There are three distinct AD groups catalyzing the formation of alkane via different mechanisms. Both plant and insect ADs are membrane proteins, whereas bacterial ADs are localized in cytosol. AD aldehyde decarbonylase, FAS fatty acid synthesis, RBO reverse beta-oxidation
