Metabolic pathway for PLA-like polymer production in engineered C. glutamicum . PLA-like polymers contained <1 mol% 3HB units. L-LDH, L-lactate dehydrogenase; D-LDH, D-lactate dehydrogenase; PCT, propionyl-CoA transferase; PhaC1STQK, lactate-polymerizing PHA synthase. The bold letters indicate exogenous enzymes. The dashed lines indicate the putative pathways. The dotted line indicates a very weak pathway. The gray ovals indicate significantly pooled metabolites.
