Fig. 7From: When metabolic prowess is too much of a good thing: how carbon catabolite repression and metabolic versatility impede production of esterified α,ω-diols in Pseudomonas putida KT2440Alkyl (C6–C10) acetate ester (a) and diacetoxyhexane (b) hydrolysis test by resting-cell of E. coli-pET26b-EstX in 20 h. EstX represents each putative esterase gene. Glucose was used to provide energy for cell maintenance. 6HHA: 6-hydroxy hexyl acetateBack to article page
