Biological production of methanol by using pectin methylesterase (PME)

Methanol contains only one carbon atom (CH3OH) is the simplest alcohol that also known as wood alcohol. It is a colourless liquid, volatile, flammable and poisonous in properties. It is widely used in several industries such as plastic industry. It also been used as an original feedstock to make po...
