초록

Here, we report the construction of a Clostridium acetobutylicum strain ATCC 824 (pCD07239) by heterologous expression of carbonyl branch genes (CD630_0723∼CD630_0729) from Clostridium difficile, aimed at installing a heterologous Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP). As part of this effort, in order to validate the methyl branch of the WLP in the C. acetobutylicum, we performed 13C-tracing analysis on knockdown mutants of four genes responsible for the formation of 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate (5-methyl-THF) from formate: CA_C3201, CA_C2310, CA_C2083, and CA_C0291. While C. acetobutylicum 824 (pCD07239) could not grow autotrophically, in heterotrophic fermentation, it began producing butanol at the early growth phase (OD600 of 0.80; 0.162 g/L butanol). In contrast, solvent production in the parent strain did not begin until the early stationary phase (OD600 of 7.40). This study offers valuable insights for future research on biobutanol production during the early growth phase. © 2023 International Metabolic Engineering Society
