High specificity of MsmCAR toward 4-hydroxyvaleric acid enables efficient 1,4-pentanediol production from biomass-derived levulinic acid
{{output}}
Alkanediols are industrial compounds with diverse applications. However, the biological production of C5 diols is limited by the low substrate specificity and efficiency of carboxylic acid reductases (CARs) toward short to medium-chain substrates. We developed... ...
