Chassis strain engineering for e.cient gas
feedstock conversion

The objective of WP1 is to provide an optimized strain for the conversion of the gas feedstock by metabolic engineering, flux analysis and the engineering of transport systems. The design of molecular genetic tools and the comprehensive characterization of selected strains will be essential.
