Abstract

Ethanol is a renewable liquid fuel which has the most potential future. It is mostly produced by biofermentation. Many scientists pay attention to change ethanol metabolic network and increase ethanol productivity using the technology of metabolic engineering. This paper roundly illustrates that metabolic engineering is applied on fuel ethanol production from such as like extension of substrate use and design of new metabolic pathways.
