Cyanobacterial 1-butanol production is an important model system for direct conversion of CO<sub>2</sub> to fuels and chemicals. Metabolically-engineered cyanobacteria introduced with a heterologous Coenzyme A (CoA)-dependent pathway modified from <i>Clostridium</i> species can convert atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> into 1-butanol. Efforts to optimize the 1-butanol pathway in <i>Synechococcus elongatus</i> PCC 7942 have focused on the improvement of the CoA-dependent pathway thus, probing the in viv ...[more]
