Genes have been isolated from a<i> Methylomonas sp</i> encoding elements of the exopolysaccharide biosynthetic pathway. The genes and gene products are the first isolated from an organisms capable of utilizing single carbon (C1) substrates as energy sources. The genes are useful for engineering other C1 utilizing microorganisms to make altered levels of exopolysaccharide which is used in a variety of commercial applications.
