제목 Direct conversion of CO2 to value-added chemicals using engineered cyanobacteria
초록 Concerns about energy security and environmental issues has focused attention on metabolic engineering photosynthetic microorganisms to convert CO2 to value-added chemicals. Thus, I present the recent research results of solar-to-chemical and solar-to-fuel using engineered cyanobacteria [1], including photosynthetic production of biodiesel (fatty acid ethyl ester), jetfuel precusur (farnesene), acetone, phytochemicals (amorphadiene and squalene)[2-3]. To achieve the goals using cyanobacteria, metabolic engineering has been applied to reconstruct the metabolic pathways by introducing de novo pathway and re-directing carbon fluxes in cyanobacteria. Furthermore, a perspective of the photo-bioprocess engineering will be discussed to achieve the industrial goals of carbon utilization.
