A most effective method for selecting a broad range of short and medium-chain-length polyhidroxyalcanoate producing microorganisms

A molecular approach was used for selecting polyhydroxyalcanoate (PHA)-accumulating potential Gram-negative bacteria from different genera by colony polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Three degenerate primers were designed for amplifying a fragment from PHA synthase gene (phaC) (Class I), phaC1 and ph...

Three degenerate primers were designed for amplifying a fragment from PHA synthase gene (phaC) (Class I), phaC1 and phaC2 (Class II) genes for detecting PHA-producing bacteria.

Four specific primers were designed on genes of Class II PHA biosynthesis operon. These primers were used for evaluating 9 strains from the old phaC+ collection; 6 showed Class II PHA synthase organisation. 34 from the old and new bacterial isolation were characterised by 16S ribosomal gene (16S rDNA) gene partial sequencing.
