Cyanobacteria have been proposed as a potential alternative carbohydrate feedstock and
multiple species have been successfully engineered to secrete fermentable sugars. To date …

Sucrose and glycogen syntheses in cyanobacteria share the common precursor glucose-1-
phosphate. It is generally assumed that lowering glycogen synthesis could drive more …

Biofuels and other biologically manufactured sustainable goods are growing in popularity
and demand. Carbohydrate feedstocks required for industrial fermentation processes have …

The capability of cyanobacteria to produce sucrose from CO 2 and light has a remarkable
societal and biotechnological impact since sucrose can serve as a carbon and energy …

Because cyanobacteria are photosynthetic, fast-growing microorganisms that can
accumulate sucrose under salt stress, they have a potential application as a sugar source for …

The bioindustrial production of fuels, chemicals, and therapeutics typically relies upon
carbohydrate inputs derived from agricultural plants, resulting in the entanglement of food …

Biorefinery technology serves as an important alternative route to alleviate the energy and
environmental crisis and to promote sustainable development. The sufficient supply of sugar …

Sucrose, a compatible osmolyte in cyanobacteria, functions both as an energy reserve and
as osmoprotectant. Sugars are the most common substrates used by microorganisms to …

It is important to obtain abundant sugar feedstocks economically and sustainably for bio-
fermentation industry, especially for producing cheap biofuels and biochemicals. Besides …

Cyanobacteria are attractive microbial hosts for production of chemicals using light and
CO2. However, their low productivity of chemicals is a major challenge for commercial …
