Abstract:
Methods for increasing carbon-based chemical product yield in an organism by genetically modifying one or more genes involved in a stringent response and/or in a regulatory network, nonnaturally occurring organisms having increased carbon-based chemical product yield, and methods for use in production of carbon-based chemical products are provided.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods for regulating biosynthesis of at least one of pimelic acid, 7-aminoheptanoic acid, 7-hydroxyheptanoic acid, heptamethylenediamine, 7-arninoheiptanol and 1,7-heptanediol (C7 building blocks) using a pathway having a pimeloyl-ACP intermediate, the method including the step of downregulating the activity of BioF. Also disclosed are recombinant hosts by fermentation in which the above methods are performed. Further disclosed are recombinant hosts for producing pimeloyl-ACP, the recombinant host including a deletion of a bioF gene.

Abstract:
Methods and materials for the production of hydroxy fatty acid anions, including 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid (2-HIBA), and/or derivatives thereof and compounds related thereto are provided. Also provided are products produced in accordance with these methods and materials.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods, compositions, and hosts for synthesizing hydrocarbons, and derivatives thereof, comprising one or more isoprene units as well as salts or derivatives thereof. An aspect of the present invention thus relates to a method for biosynthesizing hydrocarbons in a recombinant host selected from non-pathogenic members of the genera Ralstonia, Wausteria, Cupriavidus, Alcaligenes, Burkholderia, or Pandoraea. Said recombinant host comprises an exogenous nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide having an enzyme activity selected from 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase (DXS) activity (EC 2.2.1.7) and isoprene synthase enzyme activity (EC 4.2.3.27).
Abstract:

Abstract:
Methods for increasing carbon-based chemical product yield in an organism by perturbing redox balance in an organism as well as nonnaturally occurring organisms with perturbed redox balance and methods for their use in producing carbon-based chemical products are provided.
Abstract:
Methods and materials for the production of beta hydroxy acids, such as 3-hydroxypropanoic acid (3-HP) and/or derivatives thereof and/or compounds related thereto, are provided. Also provided are products produced in accordance with these methods and materials.
