Project description:The direct photosynthetic production of polyhydroxyalkanoate in cyanobacteria was improved by increasing carbon flux to biosynthetic pathway and introducing enzyme with higher activity. To understand the global transcriptional changes under photoautotrophic PHA biosynthesis conditions, RNA-seq analysis was performed. Transcriptomes of recombinant Synechocystis sp. with different PHA-producing potential (three strains, two biological replicates for each strain) were analyzed.
