Reductive Glycine Pathway: A Versatile Route for One-Carbon Biotech
Abstract
Hong et al. heterologously expressed the metabolic core of the reductive glycine pathway (rGlyP) as a sink for the anaerobic conversion of glycerol. This recent study concludes several reports in 2020 on the ATP-efficient, one-carbon-assimilating rGlyP. Its engineering in diverse hosts could help the transformation toward renewable, one-carbon-based bioproduction.
