Catabolism of diethyl ether as a sole carbon and energy source by Mycolicibacterium sp. ELW1
The model isobutylene (IB)-metabolizing strain Mycolicibacterium sp. ELW1 grew aerobically on diethyl ether (DEE) as a sole carbon and energy source. DEE supported an equivalent biomass yield to IB despite strong effects of DEE concentration on growth rate and lag phase. Differential expression analysis of the transcri...
