| Abstract | Biomanufacturing offers a potentially sustainable alternative to deriving chemicals from fossil fuels. However, traditional biomanufacturing, which uses sugars as feedstocks, competes with food production and yields unfavourable land use changes, so more sustainable options are necessary. Cupriavidus necator is a chemolithoautotrophic bacterium capable of consuming carbon dioxide and hydrogen as sole carbon and energy sources, or formate as the source of both. This autotrophic metabolism potentially makes chemical production using C. necator sustainable and attractive for biomanufacturing. Additionally, C. necator natively fixes carbon in the form of poly-3-hydroxybutyrate, which can be processed to make biodegradable plastic. Recent progress in development of modelling and synthetic biology tools have made C. necator much more usable as a biomanufacturing chassis. However, these tools and applications are often limited by a lack of consideration for the unique physiology and metabolic features of C. necator. As such, further work is required to better understand the intricate mechanisms that allow it to prioritise generalization over specialization. In this review, progress toward physiology-informed engineering of C. necator across several dimensions is critically discussed, and recommendations for moving toward a physiological approach are presented. Arguments for metabolic specialization, more focus on autotrophic fermentation, C. necator-specific synthetic biology tools, and modelling that goes beyond constraints are presented based on analysis of existing literature. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
