Sustainable l-tryptophan biosynthesis by engineered Bacillus methanolicus utilizing methanol and mannitol
Bacillus methanolicus is a thermophilic, methylotrophic bacterium with well-established methanol-based bioproduction of value-added chemicals. It is also capable of utilizing mannitol as sole carbon source, a characteristic of relevance given that mannitol constitutes a carbohydrate fraction of waste and resid...
