Zymomonas mobilis as a model system for production of biofuels and biochemicals
نویسندگان
چکیده
Zymomonas mobilis is a natural ethanologen with many desirable industrial biocatalyst characteristics. In this review, we will discuss work to develop Z. mobilis as a model system for biofuel production from the perspectives of substrate utilization, development for industrial robustness, potential product spectrum, strain evaluation and fermentation strategies. This review also encompasses perspectives related to classical genetic tools and emerging technologies in this context.

Metabolic engineering of Zymomonas mobilis for 2,3-butanediol production from lignocellulosic biomass sugars
BACKGROUND To develop pathways for advanced biofuel production, and to understand the impact of host metabolism and environmental conditions on heterologous pathway engineering for economic advanced biofuels production from biomass, we seek to redirect the carbon flow of the model ethanologen Zymomonas mobilis to produce desirable hydrocarbon intermediate 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO). 2,3-BDO is a ...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Zymomonas mobilis subsp. mobilis NRRL B-1960
Zymomonas mobilis subsp. mobilis is an efficient ethanol producer with application for industrial production of biofuel. To supplement existing Z. mobilis genomic resources and to facilitate genomic research, we used Oxford Nanopore and Illumina sequencing to assemble the complete genome of the beer spoilage isolate Z. mobilis subsp. mobilis strain NRRL B-1960.
متن کاملComplete genome sequence of the ethanol-producing Zymomonas mobilis subsp. mobilis centrotype ATCC 29191.
Zymomonas mobilis is an ethanologenic bacterium that has been studied for use in biofuel production. Of the sequenced Zymomonas strains, ATCC 29191 has been described as the phenotypic centrotype of Zymomonas mobilis subsp. mobilis, the taxon that harbors the highest ethanol-producing Z. mobilis strains. ATCC 29191 was isolated in Kinshasa, Congo, from palm wine fermentations. This strain is re...
متن کاملEvaluation of Ethanol Production from Tannin-Reduced Carob Pod Extracts by Zymamonas Mobilis
Regarding some reported antimicrobial properties of tannins; Zymomonas mobilis was used to obtain ethanol from tannin-reduced carob pod extract (TR-CPE). Culture of 50 mL volume containing 7.5 g sugar at pH 5.5 and 0.03 g bacterial inoculums with shaking at 80 rpm was used. Using response surface methodology (RSM), the maximum ethanol concentration of 5.34 % w/v (higher than that reported earli...
متن کاملZymomonas mobilis: a novel platform for future biorefineries
Biosynthesis of liquid fuels and biomass-based building block chemicals from microorganisms have been regarded as a competitive alternative route to traditional. Zymomonas mobilis possesses a number of desirable characteristics for its special Entner-Doudoroff pathway, which makes it an ideal platform for both metabolic engineering and commercial-scale production of desirable bio-products as th...
