제목 1-propanol production from overproduced amino acid in metabolically engineered Escherichai Coli
초록 1-propanol is considered as a promising new generation of biofuel that can substitute a gasoline. In this study, we introduced a novel biosynthetic pathway toward 1-propanol using L-threonine overproducing Escherichia coli as a base strain. The highest titer of 1-propanol (3.5g/L) was achieved by Atsumi et al., using recombinant Escherichia coli harboring heterogenous gene encoding Methanococcus jannaschii citramalate synthase (CimA), which directly converts pyruvate into 2-ketobutyrate. The previously reported E. coli TH20 which overproducing L-threonine was used as base strain in this study. To generate 1-propanol producing E. coli strain, competing pathways were deleted and carbon source was optimized by in silico flux reponse analysis. Further metabolic engineering of the final strain improved the production rate moreover.
