    Publication date: November 26, 2015
    Inventors: Eric James Devroe, David Arthur Berry, Noubar Boghos Afeyan, Dan Eric Robertson, Frank Anthony Skraly, Christian Perry Ridley
  • Publication number: 20130273613
    Abstract: The present disclosure identifies pathways and mechanisms to confer improved industrial fitness on engineered organisms. It also discloses engineered organisms having improved industrial fitness. Synthetic biologic engineering modules are disclosed that provide for light capture, carbon dioxide fixation, NADH production, NADPH production, thermotolerance, pH tolerance, flue gas tolerance, salt tolerance, nutrient independence and near infrared absorbance. The disclosed engineered organisms can include one or more of these modules. Also provided are methods of using the engineered organism to produce carbon-based products of interest, biomass or pharmaceutical agents.
