In the presentation I will visualize the concept green cell factories by introducing and discussing two examples: (i) engineering cyanobacteria to produce the important bulk chemical and potential blend-in biofuel butanol from sunlight and carbon dioxide, so called photosynthetic butanol, and (ii) generation of a functional semisynthetic [FeFe]-hydrogenase linking to the native metabolism in living cells of the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803.}, language = {en} }
