PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To express an acyl CoA synthetase, a PHA synthase and a PhaG in an organism to produce PHA. SOLUTION: A method for producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) from fatty acid biosynthetic pathways using a 3-hydroxy acyl ACP thioesterase, a PHA synthase, and an acyl CoA synthetase, is provided. Methodology for enabling PHA production from fatty acid biosynthetic pathways in non-native bacterial PHA producers and plants using an enzyme having the catalytic activity of 3-hydroxy acyl ACP thioesterase, an acyl CoA synthetase (with substrate specificity for medium chain length 3-hydroxy fatty acids), and a medium chain length PHA synthase, is provided.
