Genetic engineered bacteria and methods for promoting production of succinic acid or lactic acid
A genetic engineered bacteria without or comprising a plurality of important metabolic enzyme related genes is provided. When the by-product or waste of fruit and vegetable is used as the culture medium, a large quantity of succinic acid or lactic acid can be produced via fermentation. A method of producing succinic acid and lactic acid using the genetic engineered bacteria is also provided.
Method of screening gene for 1,4-BDO production
Provided is a screening method of discovering genes capable of increasing 1,4-BDO production on the basis of proteomics data. Over-expression of proteins screened by the method, NCgl0630 (citrate synthase) and NCgl2145 (hypothetical protein), increase 1,4-BDO productivity. The method may lead to screening of a protein associated with 1,4-BDO productivity, thereby increasing 1,4-BDO productivity, and thus, the method may be recognized as being industrially applicable.
USE OF MONASCUS IN ORGANIC ACID PRODUCTION
Tools and methods for producing organic acids using strains of Monascus which are tolerant to high organic acid concentrations at low pH.
RECOMBINANT MICROORGANISM FOR IMPROVED PRODUCTION OF FINE CHEMICALS
The present invention relates to a recombinant microorganism, to a method for producing alanine and to the use of the recombinant microorganism for the fermentative production of alanine.
ENGINEERING OF MULTI-CARBON SUBSTRATE UTILIZATION PATHWAYS IN METHANOTROPHIC BACTERIA
The present disclosure relates to genetically engineered methanotrophic bacteria with the capability of growing on a multi-carbon substrate (e.g., glucose) as a primary or sole carbon source and methods for growing methanotrophic bacteria on the multi-carbon substrate.
PROLINE AUXOTROPHS
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for making and using methanotrophic proline auxotrophs.
MUTANT MICROORGANISMS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING
This disclosure describes methods that allow for the uncoupling of microbial growth from product formation, which allows for maximal use of raw material and optimal end-product formation.
GENETICALLY MODIFIED YEAST AND FERMENTATION PROCESSES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF LACTATE
Disclosed herein are genetically engineered yeast cells capable of producing lactate from sucrose. The genetically engineered yeast cells comprise a polynucleotide encoding an exogenous lactate dehydrogenase enzyme: a polynucleotide encoding an exogenous invertase enzyme: a deletion or disruption of a native pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) gene: and a genetic modification resulting in overexpression of a native hexokinase gene.
ENGINEERING OF MULTI-CARBON SUBSTRATE UTILIZATION PATHWAYS IN METHANOTROPHIC BACTERIA
The present disclosure relates to genetically engineered methanotrophic bacteria with the capability of growing on a multi-carbon substrate (e.g., glycerol) as a primary or sole carbon source and methods for growing methanotrophic bacteria on the multi-carbon substrate.
