Colin PY - 2020 DA - 2020/07/16 TI - Genome Scale Metabolic Model of the versatile methanotroph Methylocella silvestris JO - Microbial Cell Factories SP - 144 VL - 19 IS - 1 AB - Methylocella silvestris is a facultative aerobic methanotrophic bacterium which uses not only methane, but also other alkanes such as ethane and propane, as carbon and energy sources. Its high metabolic versatility, together with the availability of tools for its genetic engineering, make it a very promising platform for metabolic engineering and industrial biotechnology using natural gas as substrate.
