제목 Microbial production of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) by metabolic engineering
초록 Polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHAs) are polyesters accumulated in many bacteria. Among lots of PHAs, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HB-co-3HV)] is one of the important copolymer because of lower melting point and flexibility compared to P(3HB). So far, for the production of P(3HB-co-3HV), adding of second auxiliary carbon source was needed. However, due to the toxicity of auxiliary carbon source, it is very hard to maintain the balance between cell growth and P(3HB-co-3HV) production. Thus, we developed the E. coli can stably synthesize 3HB-CoA and 3HV-CoA in controlled ratio from glucose without feeding of exogenous auxiliary carbon source by metabolic engineering. This engineered strain can efficiently synthesize P(3HB-co-3HV) independent with exogenous auxiliary carbon source.
