Science and Technology, Microbial protein

Microbial protein machines can break down cellulose in plant cell walls into simple sugars that can be fermented to ethanol.

Although the process today is too inefficient for commercial production, fundamental knowledge gained in Genomics:GTL can be applied to develop more efficient methods. For more on the science behind the Genomics:GTL Program, see Website.
