Integrated perspective on microbe-based production of itaconic acid: from metabolic and strain engineering to upstream and downstream strategies

ABSTRACT: The discovery of itaconic acid as a product of citric acid pyrolytic distillation in 1837 opened the possibility of using it as a polymer building block. Itaconic acid, featuring two carboxylic acids and an unsaturated group, can potentially be used as a building block in several chemical...
