Polyhydroxyalkanoate production in recombinant Escherichia coli.
The bacterial species Escherichia coli has proven to be a powerful tool in the molecular analysis of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biosynthesis. In addition, E. coli holds promise as a source for economical PHA production. Using this microorganism, clones have been developed in our laboratory which direct the synthesis of poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) to levels as high as 95% of the cell dry wei...
متن کاملProduction of poly-b-hydroxybutyrateon molasses by recombinantEscherichia coli
Beet molasses successfully replaced glucose as sole carbon source to produce poly-b-hydroxybutyrate by a recombinant Escherichia coli strain (HMS174/pTZ18u-PHB). The fermentation with molasses was cheaper than with glucose. The final dry cell weight, PHB content and PHB productivity were 39.5 g/L, 80% (w/w) and 1 g/Lh, respectively, in a 5 L stirred tank fermenter after 31.5 h fed-batch ferment...

متن کاملFabG mediates polyhydroxyalkanoate production from both related and nonrelated carbon sources in recombinant Escherichia coli LS5218.
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) composed of a mixture of short-chain-length-medium-chain-length (SCL-MCL) hydroxyacyl monomers are biologically produced polyesters that have properties ranging from thermoplastic to elastomeric, dependent on the molar ratio of SCL to MCL monomers incorporated into the copolymer. Because of the potential wide range of properties and applications for SCL-MCL PHA copo...
متن کاملPolyhydroxyalkanoate production in Rhodobacter capsulatus: genes, mutants, expression, and physiology.
Like many other prokaryotes, the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus produces high levels of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) when a suitable carbon source is available. The three genes that are traditionally considered to be necessary in the PHA biosynthetic pathway, phaA (beta-ketothiolase), phaB (acetoacetylcoenzyme A reductase), and phaC (PHA synthase), were cloned from Rhodobacter ...
