Scheme 2

Desired reaction from n‐butane to rhamnolipid through the three‐stage oxidation of butane to butyric acid (first step), catalyzed by the AlkBGT system from P. putida, followed by conversion of butyric acid to the final product using the intrinsic metabolic pathways of P. putida as well as the RhlABC enzyme system from P. aeruginosa.
