摘要:
The present disclosure relates to recombinant host cells comprising one or more recombinant polynucleotides encoding enzymes in select pathways that provide the ability to use the cells to produce 1,3-butadiene. The present disclosure also provides methods of manufacturing the recombinant host cells, and methods for the use of the cells to produce 1,3-butadiene. The methods utilize recombinant host cells that comprise an engineered pathway of enzymes that provides for the conversion of naturally occurring intermediate crotonyl-CoA (or -ACP) to 1,3-butadiene through enzyme catalyzed steps involving the reduction of glutaconyl-CoA (or -ACP) to form the intermediate 5-hydroxypent-3-enoate. The disclosure provides alternative engineered pathway involving either decarboxylation of 5-hydroxypent-3-enoate directly to 1,3-butadiene, or phosphorylation of 5-hydroxypent-3-enoate followed by a phosphate elimination step catalyzed by a decarboxylase to produce 1,3-butadiene.
