Abstract
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) will significantly impact global warming in the aviation sector, and important SAF targets are emerging. Isoprenol is a precursor for a promising SAF compound DMCO (1,4-dimethylcyclooctane) and has been produced in several engineered microorganisms. Recently, Pseudomonas putida has gained interest as a future host for isoprenol bioproduction as it can utilize carbon sources from inexpensive plant biomass. Here, we engineer metabolically versatile host P. putida for isoprenol production. We employ two computational modeling approaches (Bilevel optimization and Constrained Minimal Cut Sets) to predict gene knockout targets and optimize the “IPP-bypass” pathway in P. putida to maximize isoprenol production. Altogether, the highest isoprenol production titer from P. putida was achieved at 3.5 g/L under fed-batch conditions. This combination of computational modeling and strain engineering on P. putida for an advanced biofuels production has vital significance in enabling a bioproduction process that can use renewable carbon streams.
期刊介绍:
Metabolic Engineering (MBE) is a journal that focuses on publishing original research papers on the directed modulation of metabolic pathways for metabolite overproduction or the enhancement of cellular properties. It welcomes papers that describe the engineering of native pathways and the synthesis of heterologous pathways to convert microorganisms into microbial cell factories. The journal covers experimental, computational, and modeling approaches for understanding metabolic pathways and manipulating them through genetic, media, or environmental means. Effective exploration of metabolic pathways necessitates the use of molecular biology and biochemistry methods, as well as engineering techniques for modeling and data analysis. MBE serves as a platform for interdisciplinary research in fields such as biochemistry, molecular biology, applied microbiology, cellular physiology, cellular nutrition in health and disease, and biochemical engineering. The journal publishes various types of papers, including original research papers and review papers. It is indexed and abstracted in databases such as Scopus, Embase, EMBiology, Current Contents - Life Sciences and Clinical Medicine, Science Citation Index, PubMed/Medline, CAS and Biotechnology Citation Index.
