An engineered microbial platform for direct biofuel production from brown macroalgae.

Prospecting macroalgae (seaweeds) as feedstocks for bioconversion into biofuels and commodity chemical compounds is limited primarily by the availability of tractable microorganisms that can metabolize alginate polysaccharides. Here, we present the discovery of a 36-kilo-base pair DNA fragment from Vibrio splendidus encoding enzymes for alginate transport and metabolism. The genomic integration...

Biofuel Production Based on Carbohydrates from Both Brown and Red Macroalgae: Recent Developments in Key Biotechnologies

Marine macroalgae (green, red and brown macroalgae) have attracted attention as an alternative source of renewable biomass for producing both fuels and chemicals due to their high content of suitable carbohydrates and to their advantages over terrestrial biomass. However, except for green macroalgae, which contain relatively easily-fermentable glucans as their major carbohydrates, practical uti...

Engineering microbial biofuel tolerance and export using efflux pumps

Many compounds being considered as candidates for advanced biofuels are toxic to microorganisms. This introduces an undesirable trade-off when engineering metabolic pathways for biofuel production because the engineered microbes must balance production against survival. Cellular export systems, such as efflux pumps, provide a direct mechanism for reducing biofuel toxicity. To identify novel bio...

Metabolic engineering of Pichia pastoris for production of isobutanol and isobutyl acetate

Background Interests in renewable fuels have exploded in recent years as the serious effects of global climate change become apparent. Microbial production of high-energy fuels by economically efficient bioprocesses has emerged as an attractive alternative to the traditional production of transportation fuels. Here, we engineered Pichia pastoris, an industrial workhorse in heterologous enzyme p...

Brown macroalgae flora on the coastline of Bushehr province counties

Marine brown macroalgae are an important part of the tidal coaste flora in Bushehr province with rocky, coral and sandstone beds. Brown seaweeds need a solid and stable support (natural or artificial) to be attached algae holdfasts to the them, ensuring their establishment for growth, multiplication and development against violent waves. Because of this, most macroalgae are not able to grow on ...
