Bacteria could make vitamins cheaper and greener
Bacteria could make vitamins cheaper and greener Bacteria can be engineered to produce more vitamin K₂, making vitamins cheaper and greener than traditional methods. A new study reveals how to rewire bacteria to overproduce vitamin K₂ by tuning substrate supply, enzyme expression, and gene order simultaneously. The researchers used a three-pronged approach: biosensing, genetic engineering, […]
