Design Notes

In C. tyrobutyricum L319, glucose is converted to acetyl-CoA which is then mainly converted to butyryl-CoA by the following enzymes: thiolase (thl), 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (hbd), crotonase (crt), and butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (bcd). Butyryl-CoA is subsequently converted to butyrate in the native strain. In the preliminary experiment, we discovered that the yield of butyrate and butanol increased efficiently through the overexpression of bcd and crt. Therefore, crotonase and butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase are considered as rate-limiting enzymes. We used the endogenous bcd and crt genes and Pthl promoter from C. tyrobutyricum L319 to construct the part of Pthl-bcd-crt to overexpress crt and bcd in C. tyrobutyricum to enhance the butyrate and butanol synthesis pathway.
