Synthesis of Poly-(R-hydroxyalkanoates) by<i> Cupriavidus necator</i> ATCC 17699 Using Mexican Avocado<i> (Persea americana)</i> Oil as a Carbon Source

<div>A simplified representation of fatty acid metabolism in<i> Cupriavidus necator</i>. In a nonlimiting growth media (left side), the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is active and the main product is biomass itself. Under unbalanced conditions (right side), caused by a noncarbon nutrient deficiency, C-source via fatty acid <i>β</i>-oxidation flows towards the poly-R-hydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biosynthesis pathway.</div>
