5.4.99.13 | biofuel production |
the production of isobutanol, a branched-chain alcohol that can be used as a gasoline substitute, using a CoA-dependent pathway in recombinant Ralstonia eutropha strain H16. The designed pathway involves isobutyryl-CoA mutase activity. The engineered strain produces about 30 mg/l isobutanol from fructose |

5.4.99.13 | synthesis |
IcmF is potentially useful as a reagent for bioremediation of pivalic acid found in pharmaceutical wastewaters (pivalic acid esters are used as pro-drugs) and/or for the biosynthesis of a simple beta-nonfunctional alpha-quaternary carboxylic acid. Another potential application of IcmF is in metabolic engineering of pathways to produce branched C4 and C5 building blocks that can subsequently be converted to useful derivatives, for example, the corresponding isobutyl and pivalyl alcohols |

5.4.99.13 | synthesis |
the production of isobutanol, a branched-chain alcohol that can be used as a gasoline substitute, using a CoA-dependent pathway in recombinant Ralstonia eutropha strain H16. The designed pathway involves isobutyryl-CoA mutase. The engineered strain produces about 30 mg/l isobutanol from fructose. The carbon skeleton rearrangement chemistry demonstrated may be used to expand the range of the chemicals accessible with CoA-dependent pathways |
