isoprene production, isoprene precursors, and isoprenes with the use of acetoacetyl coa synthase

摘要

Abstract: This invention relates to a recombinant microorganism capable of producing isoprene and isoprene production with the use of such recombinant microorganism with good efficiency. in this invention, the acetoacetyl-coa synthase gene encoding an enzyme capable of synthesizing acetoacetyl-coa from malonyl-coa and acetyl-coa and one or more genes involved in isoprene biosynthesis which enables synthesis of isoprene from acetoacetyl-coa are introduced into a host microorganism. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ translation of the summary abstract patent "Production of isoprene, isoprene precursors, and isoprenoids with the use of acetoacetyl coa synthase".
