Stepwise metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli to produce triacylglycerol rich in medium-chain fatty acids

BACKGROUND: Triacylglycerols (TAGs) rich in medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs, C10–14 fatty acids) are valuable feedstocks for biofuels and chemicals. Natural sources of TAGs rich in MCFAs are restricted to a limited number of plant species, which are unsuitable for mass agronomic production. Instead,...
