| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Rhodococcus erythropolis N9T-4 is a super oligotroph, which can grow on a minimum medium without any additional carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur sources. This bacterium can incorporate such nutrients from the atmosphere including CO2,while the mechanisms are still unclear. In the first part of this study, we identified some genes involved in the oligotrophic growth of N9T-4. In the second part, we attempted to construct low-carbon and low-cost bioprocess for biofuel, such as ethanol and triacylglycerol using the oligotrophy of N9T-4.
