Photosynthetic Constraints on Fuel from Microbes
THE WORLD ENERGY PROBLEM AND THE BIOFUEL ENERGY PROBLEM Oxygenic photosynthesis has been promoted as a system for fuel production on a global scale to replace fossil fuels. The fundamental requirement for this to be viable is that the energy output of the system must be greater than the energy input from fossil fuels. For biofuel production, this criterion is not always met. This issue is often...
متن کاملMicrobial Fuel Cells: Electricity Generation from Organic Wastes by Microbes

متن کاملMicrobes offer engineering strategies to combat cancer
immune cells exist with interactive networks that dictate good health and disease, including cancer, both within and beyond the gut1–3. This emerging paradigm linking gut bac teria with extraintestinal cancer builds upon earlier work that tumour microenvironments interact with systemic immune and metabolic networks4, and, more specifically, with microbial– immune networks2,5,6. In this way, gut...
متن کاملEngineering Corynebacterium glutamicum to produce 5-aminolevulinic acid from glucose
BACKGROUND Corynebacterium glutamicum is generally regarded as a safe microorganism and is used to produce many biochemicals, including L-glutamate. 5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is an L-glutamate derived non-protein amino acid, and is widely applied in fields such as medicine and agriculture. RESULTS The products of the gltX, hemA, and hemL genes participate in the synthesis of ALA from L-glut...
متن کاملEngineering Yarrowia lipolytica to produce biodiesel from raw starch
BACKGROUND In the last year, the worldwide concern about the abuse of fossil fuels and the seeking for alternatives sources to produce energy have found microbial oils has potential candidates for diesel substitutes. Yarrowia lipolytica has emerged as a paradigm organism for the production of bio-lipids in white biotechnology. It accumulates high amounts of lipids from glucose as sole carbon so...
