Metabolic engineering to enhance bacterial hydrogen production
Hydrogen fuel is renewable, efficient and clean, and fermentative bacteria hold great promise for its generation. Here we use the isogenic Escherichia coli K-12 KEIO library to rapidly construct multiple, precise deletions in the E. coli genome to direct the metabolic flux towards hydrogen production. Escherichia coli has three active hydrogenases, and the genes involved in the regulation of th...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of Arabidopsis for butanetriol production using bacterial genes.
1,2,4-butanetriol (butanetriol) is a useful precursor for the synthesis of the energetic material butanetriol trinitrate and several pharmaceutical compounds. Bacterial synthesis of butanetriol from xylose or arabinose takes place in a pathway that requires four enzymes. To produce butanetriol in plants by expressing bacterial enzymes, we cloned native bacterial or codon optimized synthetic gen...
متن کاملProtein engineering of the transcriptional activator FhlA To enhance hydrogen production in Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli produces H(2) from formate via the formate hydrogenlyase (FHL) complex during mixed acid fermentation; the FHL complex consists of formate dehydrogenase H (encoded by fdhF) for forming 2H(+), 2e(-), and CO(2) from formate and hydrogenase 3 (encoded by hycGE) for synthesizing H(2) from 2H(+) and 2e(-). FHL protein production is activated by the sigma(54) transcriptional activato...
متن کاملSystems Biology Approach to Discovery of Phenotype-Specific Metabolic Processes for Engineering Bacterial Bio-Hydrogen
Biological hydrogen is one of the most promising alternative energy and fuel resource today. Due to the ability of several naturally occurring microorganisms to generate hydrogen using different metabolic processes, engineered biohydrogen production is considered a feasible and sustainable technology. To improve upon current technological applications, biological and metabolic engineering appro...
متن کاملEngineering Yarrowia lipolytica to enhance lipid production from lignocellulosic materials
Background Yarrowia lipolytica is a common biotechnological chassis for the production of lipids, which are the preferred feedstock for the production of fuels and chemicals. To reduce the cost of microbial lipid production, inexpensive carbon sources must be used, such as lignocellulosic hydrolysates. Unfortunately, lignocellulosic materials often contain toxic compounds and a large amount of ...
