Cloning and sequencing of the alcohol dehydrogenase II gene from Zymomonas mobilis

Patent ·
OSTI ID:868535
The alcohol dehydrogenase II gene from Zymomonas mobilis has been cloned and sequenced. This gene can be expressed at high levels in other organisms to produce acetaldehyde or to convert acetaldehyde to ethanol.
