A research group at KAIST presented a novel biosensor which can produce diverse, high-level microbial cell factories. The biosensor monitors the concentration of products and even intermediates when ...

Cells accumulate mass and grow by using nutrients and energy to build membranes, proteins, nucleic acids, and other macromolecular structures, through the coordinated action of various metabolic ...

In previous work (D. Post-Beittenmiller, J. G. Jaworski, J. B. Ohlrogge [1991] J Biol Chem 266: 1858-1865), the in vivo acyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) pools were measured in spinach (Spinacia ...

Malonyl-CoA is the precursor for fatty acid synthesis and elongation. It is also one of the building blocks for the biosynthesis of some phytoalexins, flavonoids, and many malonylated compounds. In ...
