摘要:
This invention relates to microorganisms that convert a carbon source to acrylate or other desirable products using homoserine and 2-keto-4-hydroxybutyrate as intermediates. The invention provides genetically engineered microorganisms that carry out the conversion, as well as methods for producing acrylate by culturing the microorganisms. Also provided are microorganisms and methods for converting homoserine to 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA, 3-hydroxypropionate (3HP), poly-3-hydroxypropionate and 1,3-propanediol.
摘要:
The invention relates to a micro-organism that is able to convert homoserine to 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde, wherein the micro-organism expresses a protein capable of converting homoserine to 2-keto-4-hydroxybutyrate wherein the protein is selected from the group consisting of: aminotransferases, an amino acid oxidases, and amino acid dehydrogenases.
