Title:
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING N-PROPANOL AND PROPIONIC ACID USING METABOLICALLY ENGINEERED PROPIONIBACTERIA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/099707
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A metabolically engineered propionibacteria, genomically modified to express a bifunctional aldehyde/alcohol dehydrogenase identified as GenBank Gene ID: 6062148; GI: 170080868, having activity on propionyl-CoA, is prepared and used in a fermentative process to biosynthetically prepare n-propanol, propionic acid, or a combination thereof.
