enzyme overexpression in Clostridium thermocellum strain dsm1313 resulting in strains DS8, YD01, and YD02 Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information recombinant overexpression of the enzyme in Clostridium thermocellum improves carbon flux to ethanol in the transformed cells. Clostridium thermocellum strain YD01 with exogenous pyruvate kinase, in which phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase expression is diminished by modifying the start codon from ATG to GTG, exhibits 3.25fold higher ethanol yield than the wild-type Clostridium thermocellum strain. A second strain, YD02 with exogenous pyruvate kinase, in which the gene for malic enzyme and part of malate dehydrogenase are deleted, has over 3fold higher ethanol yield than the wild-type strain Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum
