Fig. 2

a Schematic representation of procedures for extractive ester fermentation. b Heatmap results showed the ester production in various Clostridium strains with the overexpression of different enzymes. Empty plasmid: expression of pMTL82151 (for C. saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4-C, C. pasteurianum SD-1, C. tyrobutyricum cat1::adhE1 and cat1::adhE2) or pTJ1 (for C. beijerinckii 8052) as the control; EA: ethyl acetate, EB: ethyl butyrate, BA: butyl acetate, BB: butyl butyrate. Source data underlying Fig. 2b are provided as a Source Data file.
