摘要:
The invention relates generally to the field of industrial microbiology and butanol production. More specifically, the invention relates methods of reducing 2,3-dihydroxy-2-methyl butyrate (DHMB) in butanol production. DHMB can be reduced by inhibiting the reduction of acetolactate to DHMB, for example, by knocking out enzymes that catalyze the reduction or by removing DHMB during or after fermentation. Yeast strains, compositions, and methods for reducing DHMB and increasing butanol yield are provided.
摘要:
Yeast strains were engineered that have increased activity of heterologous proteins that require binding of an Fe—S cluster for their activity. The yeast strains have reduced activity of an endogenous Fe—S protein. Activities of heterologous fungal or plant 2Fe-2S dihydroxy-acid dehydratases and Fe—S propanediol dehydratase reactivase were increased for increased production of products made using biosynthetic pathways including these enzymes, such as valine, isoleucine, leucine, pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), isobutanol, 2-butanone and 2-butanol.

摘要:
Methods for the fermentive production of four carbon alcohols is provided. Specifically, butanol, preferably 1-butanol is produced by the fermentive growth of a recombinant bacterium expressing a 1-butanol biosynthetic pathway.

摘要:
A high flux in conversion of pyruvate to acetolactate was achieved in yeast through expression of acetolactate synthase in the cytosol in conjunction with reduction in pyruvate decarboxylase activity. Additional manipulations to improve flux to acetolactate are reduced pyruvate dehydrogenase activity and reduced glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. Production of compounds having acetolactate as an upstream intermediate benefit from the increased conversion of pruvate to acetolactate in the described strains.
