The TU Delft researchers Frank Koopman and Nick Wierckx discovered that the bacterium Cupriavidus basilensis is capable of breaking furans down into harmless waste products, while leaving the sugars untouched. As demonstrated in the present study, the HMF and furfural metabolic pathway can be functionally expressed in P.
