Towards using bacterial microcompartments as a platform for spatial metabolic engineering in the industrially important and metabolically versatile Zymomonas mobilis
Advances in synthetic biology have enabled the incorporation of novel biochemical pathways for the production of high-value products into industrially important bacterial hosts.However, attempts to redirect metabolic fluxes towards desired products often lead to the buildup of toxic or undesirable intermediates or, more generally, unwanted metaboli
