摘要:
The invention provides a non-naturally occurring microbial organism having an adipate, 6-aminocaproic acid or caprolactam pathway. The microbial organism contains at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an enzyme in the respective adipate, 6-aminocaproic acid or caprolactam pathway. The invention additionally provides a method for producing adipate, 6-aminocaproic acid or caprolactam. The method can include culturing an adipate, 6-aminocaproic acid or caprolactam producing microbial organism, where the microbial organism expresses at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an adipate, 6-aminocaproic acid or caprolactam pathway enzyme in a sufficient amount to produce the respective product, under conditions and for a sufficient period of time to produce adipate, 6-aminocaproic acid or caprolactam.

摘要:
A non-naturally occurring eukaryotic or prokaryotic organism includes one or more gene disruptions occurring in genes encoding enzymes imparting increased fumarate, malate or acrylate production in the organism when the gene disruption reduces an activity of the enzyme. The one or more gene disruptions confers increased production of acrylate onto the organism. Organisms that produce acrylate have an acrylate pathway that at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an acrylate pathway enzyme expressed in a sufficient amount to produce acrylate, the acrylate pathway comprising a decarboxylase. Methods of producing fumarate, malate or acrylate include culturing these organisms.

摘要:
A computer-assisted method for identifying functionalities to add to an organism-specific metabolic network to enable a desired biotransformation in a host includes accessing reactions from a universal database to provide stoichiometric balance, identifying at least one stoichiometrically balanced pathway at least partially based on the reactions and a substrate to minimize a number of non-native functionalities in the production host, and incorporating the at least one stoichiometrically balanced pathway into the host to provide the desired biotransformation. A representation of the metabolic network as modified can be stored.
摘要:
A non-naturally occurring microbial organism having a methyl ethyl ketone pathway includes at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding a methyl ethyl ketone pathway enzyme expressed in a sufficient amount to produce methyl ethyl ketone. The methyl ethyl ketone pathway includes a β-ketothiolase, a β-ketovalerate decarboxylase and an enzyme selected from the group consisting of a β-ketovaleryl-CoA hydrolase and a β-ketovaleryl-CoA transferase. Alternatively, the methyl ethyl ketone pathway includes a 2-methylacetoacetyl-CoA thiolase, a 2-methylacetoacetate decarboxylase and an enzyme selected from the group consisting of a 2-methylacetoacetyl-CoA hydrolase and a 2-methylacetoacetyl-CoA transferase. Either pathway can further include a methyl ethyl ketone reductase to produce 2-BuOH. A method for producing methyl ethyl ketone or 2-BuOH includes culturing these non-naturally occurring microbial organisms under conditions, and for a sufficient period of time, to produce methyl ethyl ketone or 2-BuOH.
