Title:
CELL-FREE AND MINIMIZED METABOLIC REACTION CASCADES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHEMICALS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/029761
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Provided are enzymatic processes for the production of chemicals like ethanol from carbon sources like glucose, in particular, a process for the production of a target chemical is disclosed using a cell- free enzyme system that converts carbohydrate sources to the intermediate pyruvate and subsequently the intermediate pyruvate to the target chemical wherein a minimized number of enzymes and only one cofactor is employed.
