additional information expression of Vibrio harveyi acyl-ACP synthetase AasS in Escherichia coli allows exogenous fatty acids to enter the Escherichia coli fatty acid synthesis pathway. The free fatty acids are incorporated intact and can be elongated or directly incorporated into complex lipids by acyltransferases specific for acyl-ACPs. Expression of AasS strains and supplementation with the appropriate fatty acid restores growth to Escherichia coli mutant strains that lack essential fatty acid synthesis enzymes Vibrio harveyi
