Tools for genetic engineering and gene expression control in and .

Alphaproteobacteria have a variety of cellular and metabolic features that provide important insights into biological systems and enable biotechnologies. For example, some species are capable of converting plant biomass into valuable biofuels and bioproducts that have the potential to contribute to the sustainable bioeconomy. Among the Alphaproteobacteria, , , and show promise as organisms that can be engineered to convert extracted plant lignin or sugars into bioproducts and biofuels.
