Hi, we are students of Biotechnologic Engineering from Portugal and
we
have to make an article about the production of PHAs using
recombinant
E. coli. We have search several articles in NCBI but most of them are
not very recent. So, if anyone have some updated information about
this theme we appreciate some help...

Thank you in advance

João, Francisco and Tiago

I haven't kept up too closely, but here are a couple I have. Maybe no
more recent than what you have. The field is not all that active,
since the economics do not seem to be working out very well.

Neutral Lipid Bodies in Prokaryotes: Recent Insights into Structure,
Formation, and Relationship to Eukaryotic Lipid Depots
Marc Waltermann and Alexander Steinbuchel
J. Bacteriol. 2005;187 3607-3619, 6/05. Minireview. (should be
free online)

T Lütke-Eversloh et al, Biosynthesis of novel thermoplastic
polythioesters by engineered Escherichia coli. Nature Materials 1:236,
12/02.

Have you run citation searches on the articles you do have? That is a
good way to get updated. The topic is one where it is hard to know
what good search terms are.

You can often run partial citation searches from the journal web
sites, even if you do not have access to Web of Science. (And PubMed
will show you related articles.)

Contact me by email if you would like some help with this. Maybe I can
use this as a chance to update my info.
