Thiolase gene thl from C. acetobutylicum.
The thiolase gene encodes an acetyl-coenzyme A acetyltransferases from C. acetobutylicum.
Usage and Biology
Thiolases are core metabolic enzymes involved in the melavonate pathway responsible for the conversion of acetyl-CoA to acetoacetyl-CoA. Results from our genome scale modeling suggested that exogenous thiolase was required for the production of acetone in our chosen volatile reporter organism C. sporogenes. Thiolase was therefore included in our acetone production pathway constructs in order to a volatile reporter for the prediction of botulinum toxin production following food manufacturing processes.
