Iron metabolism in pathogenic bacteria.
Colin Ratledge,Lynn G. Dover +1 more
TL;DR: The biochemistry of the bacterial cell can accommodate the challenges from the host and agents that interfere with bacterial iron metabolism may prove extremely valuable for chemotherapy of diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid biosynthesis in microorganisms being used for Single Cell Oil production
TL;DR: While PUFA production in most microorganisms uses a conventional fatty acid synthase system followed by a series of desaturases and elongases, in Schizochytrium sp.
