Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) release in the atmosphere from fossil fuel combustion has inspired scientists to study CO<sub>2</sub> to biofuel conversion. Oxygenic phototrophs such as cyanobacteria have been used to produce biofuels using CO<sub>2</sub>. However, oxygen generation during oxygenic photosynthesis adversely affects biofuel production efficiency. To produce n-butanol (biofuel) from CO<sub>2</sub>, here we introduce an n-butanol biosynthesis pathway into an anoxygenic ...[more]
