RECOMBINANT MICROORGANISMS CAPABLE OF CARBON FIXATION

摘要

A microorganism which is genetically modified so that it produces a first essential biomass precursor by metabolizing C02 using a recombinant carbon fixation enzyme is disclosed. The microorganism produces a second biomass precursor by metabolizing an organic carbon source and not by metabolizing C02. The microorganism does not use the organic carbon source for producing the first essential biomass precursor.
