BIOSYNTHESIS OF 1-ALKENES IN ENGINEERED MICROORGANISMS

摘要

Various 1-alkenes, including 1-nonadecene and 1-octadecene, are synthesized by the engineered microorganisms and methods of the invention. In certain embodiments, the microorganisms comprise recombinant 1-alkene synthases. The engineered microorganisms may be photosynthetic microorganisms such as cyanobacteria.
