Cold stress negatively affects maize (Zea mays L.) growth, development and yield. Metabolic adjustments contribute to the adaptation of maize under cold stress. We show here that the transcription factor INDUCER OF CBF EXPRESSION 1 (ZmICE1) plays a prominent role in reprogramming amino a...
Isobutanol production has been demonstrated in E. coli and Z. mobilis using heterologous pathways, with titers reaching up to 60% of the theoretical yield under optimized conditions. However, these results often depend on impractical setups, such as continuous product extraction, oxygenation, or ...
Small volatile molecules are considered to play a role in promoting plant growth, with acetoin and 2,3-butanediol being representative examples. In this study, we employed metabolic engineering of Bacillus subtilis to enhance the production of acetoin and 2,3-butanediol, and investigated the...
