Study creates bacteria that consume carbon dioxide for growth
Researchers have developed bacteria called Escherichia coli, which consume carbon-di-oxide for energy instead of organic compounds.
This creation in synthetic biology highlights the incredible plasticity of bacterial metabolism and could provide the framework for future carbon-neutral bioproduction.
The work appeared in the journal -- Cell.
