Estimating the term…
Microorganisms are genetically engineered to continuously produce fatty acids, fatty alcohols, cultured protein, or any combination thereof by microbial fermentation, particularly by microbial fermentation of a gaseous substrate. The microorganisms are C1-fixing. The production of fatty acids, fatty alcohols, and cultured proteins can be improved. This can be improved by varying promoters or nutrient limiting means.
A recombinant C1-fixing microorganism capable of producing at least one C6-18 fatty acid, at least one C6-18 fatty alcohol, or any combination thereof, from a gaseous substrate comprising a nucleic acid encoding a group of exogenous enzymes comprising thiolase;
