BESC team engineers microbe for direct production of isobutanol from cellulose

Green Car Congress

MARCH 7, 2011

While cellulosic biomass like corn stover and switchgrass is abundant and cheap, it is much more difficult to utilize than corn and sugar cane. This work was on Liao’s earlier work at UCLA in building a synthetic pathway for isobutanol production. —Higashide et al. Wendy Higashide, Yongchao Li, Yunfeng Yang, and James C.
