synthesis | engineering of Escherichia coli for direct and modulated biosynthesis of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymer. An Escherichia coli strain with an activated sleeping beauty mutase (Sbm) operon is used to generate propionyl-CoA as a precursor. Two acetyl-CoA moieties or acetyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA are condensed to form acetoacetyl-CoA and 3-ketovaleryl-CoA, respectively, by functional expression of beta-ketothiolases from Cupriavidus necator (i.e. PhaA and BktB). The resulting thioester intermediates are channeled into the polyhydroxyalkanoate biosynthetic pathway through functional expression of acetoacetyl-CoA reductase (PhaB) for thioester reduction and PHA synthase (PhaC) for subsequent polymerization. High-level poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymer production ranging from 3 to 19 mol%, can be achieved | Cupriavidus necator |
