A microbial factory for lactate-based polyesters using a lactate-polymerizing enzyme.
Polylactate (PLA) is synthesized as a representative bio-based polyester by the chemo-bio process on the basis of metal catalyst-mediated chemical polymerization of lactate (LA) supplied by microbial fermentation. To establish the one-step microbial process for synthesis of LA-based polyesters, we explored whether polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase would exhibit polymerizing activity toward a ...
متن کاملMicrobial production of lactate-containing polyesters
Due to our increasing concerns on environmental problems and limited fossil resources, biobased production of chemicals and materials through biorefinery has been attracting much attention. Optimization of the metabolic performance of microorganisms, the key biocatalysts for the efficient production of the desired target bioproducts, has been achieved by metabolic engineering. Metabolic enginee...
متن کاملEffectiveness of xylose utilization for high yield production of lactate-enriched P(lactate-co-3-hydroxybutyrate) using a lactate-overproducing strain of Escherichia coli and an evolved lactate-polymerizing enzyme.
Xylose, which is a major constituent of lignocellulosic biomass, was utilized for the production of poly(lactate-co-3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(LA-co-3HB)], having transparent and flexible properties. The recombinant Escherichia coli JW0885 (pflA(-)) expressing LA-polymerizing enzyme (LPE) and monomer supplying enzymes grown on xylose produced a copolymer having a higher LA fraction (34mol%) than tha...
متن کاملLactate-to-pyruvate or pyruvate-to-lactate assay for lactate dehydrogenase: a re-examination.
The pyruvate-to-lactate assay for determining lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) can now yield linearity equal to or better than that obtained by the lactate-to-pyruvate assay. In addition, there are significant advantages to the pyruvate-to-lactate reaction: (a) a greater change in absorbance per unit time, which allows more accurate spectrophotometric readout; (b) lower reactant concentratio...
متن کاملRabbit muscle lactate dehydrogenase 5; a regulatory enzyme.
Lactate dehydrogenase isozyme 5 from rabbit skeletal muscle is activated by citrate, cis-aconitate, isocitrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, fumarate, malate, aspartate, and glutamate. In the presence of these activators the shape of the pyruvate saturation curve is changed from sigmoid to hyperbolic. Lactate dehydrogenase isozyme 1 from rabbit heart gives a hyperbolic pyruvate saturation cu...
