Genome engineering Escherichia coli for L-DOPA overproduction from glucose
Genome engineering has become a powerful tool for creating useful strains in research and industry. In this study, we applied singleplex and multiplex genome engineering approaches to construct an E. coli strain for the production of L-DOPA from glucose. We first used the singleplex genome engineering approach to create an L-DOPA-producing strain, E. coli DOPA-1, by deleting transcriptional reg...
متن کاملOverproduction of α-Lipoic Acid by Gene Manipulated Escherichia coli
Alpha-lipoic acid (LA) is an important enzyme cofactor widely used by organisms and is also a natural antioxidant for the treatment of pathologies driven by low levels of endogenous antioxidants. In order to establish a safer and more efficient process for LA production, we developed a new biological method for LA synthesis based on the emerging knowledge of lipoic acid biosynthesis. We first c...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for production of valerenadiene.
Valeriana officinalis is a medicinal herb which produces a suite of compounds in its root tissue useful for treatment of anxiety and insomnia. The sesquiterpene components of the root extract, valerenic acid and valerena-1,10-diene, are thought to contribute to most of the observed anxiolytic of Valerian root preparations. However, valerenic acid and its biosynthetic intermediates are only prod...
متن کاملMetabolic Engineering of Escherichia coli for the Production of Xylonate
Xylonate is a valuable chemical for versatile applications. Although the chemical synthesis route and microbial conversion pathway were established decades ago, no commercial production of xylonate has been obtained so far. In this study, the industrially important microorganism Escherichia coli was engineered to produce xylonate from xylose. Through the coexpression of a xylose dehydrogenase (...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for the production of riboflavin
BACKGROUND Riboflavin (vitamin B2), the precursor of the flavin cofactors flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), is used commercially as an animal feed supplement and food colorant. E. coli is a robust host for various genetic manipulations and has been employed for efficient production of biofuels, polymers, amino acids, and bulk chemicals. Thus, the aim of this stu...
