Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for the utilization of ethanol.

Conclusions: This study demonstrated the possibility of using ethanol as the carbon source by engineered E. coli strains. It can serve as the basis for the construction of more robust strains in the future though the catabolic capacity of ethanol should be further improved. PMID: 31993378 [PubMed]
