Title:
MICROORGANISMS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF 1,4-BUTANEDIOL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/030711
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides non- naturally occurring microbial organisms comprising a 1,4-butanediol (BDO) pathway comprising at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding a BDO pathway enzyme expressed in a sufficient amount to produce BDO. The invention additionally provides methods of using such microbial organisms to produce BDO.
