Estimating the term…
The present application relates to recombinant microorganisms expressing a dehydratase useful in a one-step, direct fermentative production of one or more primary alkenes from one or more saturated primary or secondary alcohols. Known, well developed high-yielding pathways that use renewable feedstock can be introduced into the recombinant microorganisms to obtain the alcohol precursors. Also provided are methods of producing one or more primary alkenes using the recombinant microorganisms, as well as compositions comprising the recombinant microorganisms and/or optionally the primary alkene products.
A recombinant microorganism capable of producing one or more primary alkenes, each primary alkene having a structure as shown in Structure B, from one or more saturated primary or secondary alcohols, each primary or secondary alcohol having a structure as shown in Structure A,
A method of producing one or more primary alkenes, one or more saturated primary or secondary alcohols, or a combination thereof, wherein the method comprises cultivating the recombinant microorganism of any of the preceding claims in a culture medium containing a feedstock providing a carbon source until one or more primary alkenes, one or more saturated primary or secondary alcohols, or a combination thereof, are produced.
A method of producing a recombinant microorganism that produces or accumulates one or more primary alkenes, each primary alkene having a structure as shown in Structure B, from one or more saturated primary or secondary alcohols, each primary or secondary alcohol having a structure as shown in Structure A,
