Acetaminophen synthesis (WP2886)

Escherichia coli

Synthetic biology approaches to acetaminophen production. The first reaction path in E.coli has been successfully tested experimentally. The second path in Synechocystis is proposed hypothetically by Menezes, et al. in a study considering synthetic biology approaches to resource utilization on future space missions.
