Resumen

Our overall ARPA-E project goal seeks to produce a renewable hydrocarbon feedstock by the genetic engineering of a C34 branched hyrdrocarbon of Botrococcus braunii into Rhodobacter capsulatus. We have shown the ability of this genetically engineered autotrophic organism to produce C30+ isoprenes from H2, O2 and CO2. My specific component of this project has been to examine fundamantal kinetics of autotrophic growth towards the production of bioreactactor systems and multiplexed autotrophic growth capabilities for screening the genetically engineered bacteria.
