摘要:
At least one fatty acid and/or derivative thereof is produced from a gas containing H2, CO2, and O2 by providing a genetically modified hydrogen oxidizing bacterium in an aqueous medium; and contacting the aqueous medium with the gas containing H2, CO2 and O2 in a weight ratio of 20 to 70 (H2): 10 to 45 (CO2): 5 to 35 (O2); wherein the fatty acid contains at least 5 carbon atoms and wherein the hydrogen oxidizing bacterium is genetically modified relative to the wild type bacterium to increase the expression of enzyme E1 that is capable of catalyzing the conversion of acetyl CoA to acyl ACP via malonyl coA and to increase the expression of enzyme E2 that is capable of catalyzing the conversion of Acyl ACP to the fatty acid.

摘要:
The present invention provides genetically engineered microbial strains, in particular genetically engineered yeast strains, that produce at least 0.5 mg per g CDW of a sphingoid base according to Formula I or a salt or ester thereof. The present invention provides a method to obtain genetically engineered microbial strains producing at least 0.5 mg per g CDW of a sphingoid base according to Formula I or a salt or ester thereof. The method comprises the steps of: a) increasing the expression of a polynucleotide encoding an enzyme having ceramide synthase activity and/or an enzyme having ceramidase activity, the latter being capable of preferentially, or even specifically, hydrolyzing ceramides containing a sphingoid base according to Formula I, and/or b) decreasing the expression of a polynucleotide encoding an enzyme having sphingolipid Δ8-desaturase activity and/or an enzyme having ceramidase activity, the latter being capable of preferentially, or even specifically, hydrolyzing ceramides containing phytosphingosine or dihydrosphingosine as sphingoid base, and isolating strains with the required productivity.

摘要:
The invention describes a process for preparing acetone starting from acetyl-coenzyme A comprising process steps A. enzymatic conversion of acetyl-CoA into acetoacetyl-CoA B. enzymatic conversion of acetoacetyl-CoA into acetoacetate and CoA and C. decarboxylation of acetoacetate to acetone and CO2, which is characterized in that the coenzyme A is not transferred in process step B to an acceptor molecule. In addition, process step B is surprisingly catalyzed by enzymes of the classes of acyl-CoA thioesterase, acyl-CoA synthetase or acyl-CoA thiokinase.A completely novel metabolic pathway is concerned, because the enzymatic hydrolysis of acetoacetyl-CoA without simultaneous transfer of CoA to a receptor molecule has never previously been described for any microbial enzyme.
