Technologies are available which will allow the conversion of lignocellulose into fuel ethanol using genetically engineered bacteria. Assembling these into a cost-effective process remains a challenge. Our work has focused primarily on the genetic engineering of enteric bacteria using a portable eth
## Abstract Quorum sensing is a common mechanism used by bacteria to coordinate population behavior, and is involved in a variety of biological processes, such as bioluminescence, virulence factor synthesis, antibiotic production, and biofilm formation. To engineer the LuxI enzyme of the LuxIโLuxR
1,4-Butanediol (BDO) is an important commodity chemical used to manufacture over 2.5 million tons annually of valuable polymers, and it is currently produced exclusively through feedstocks derived from oil and natural gas. Herein we report what are to our knowledge the first direct biocatalytic rout
