Acetic acid overproducing pathway
The natural function of phosphotransacetylase (PTA) is to reversibly convert acetyl-CoA into acetyl phosphate, whereas that of acetokinase (ACK) is to reversibly convert acetate into acetyl phosphate. The trait of PTA, together with the reversibility of the conversion catalyzed by ACK, gives them a potential to enhance acetate production when overexpressed. Moreover, this enhancement can be further optimized when the level of its precursor, acetyl-CoA is lifted. Following this strategy, we include fatty acyl-CoA synthetase (FadD), a key enzyme in beta-oxidation of higher fatty acids, to increase the yield of acetate to a further extend.

Properties
The function of this part is validated by comparing it to a negative control, as well as a system that only overexpresses PTA and ACK. As is shown below, the yield of acetate by this part not only remarkably lifted acetate production compared to control group, but also exceed the PTA-ACK system by nearly half fold (Fig. 1).
Experimental approach
1.Transfer the plasmid into E. coli competent cells.
2.Culture the strains in LB-ampicillin (50 ng/μL) at 37℃ for 5 hours.
3.Add 200 mM oleate to the medium and induce both groups by addition of IPTG to a final concentration of 5 mM.
4.Keep culturing at 37℃ and take samples at 0 hr, 2 hr and 4 hr after induction.
5.Measure acetate content using Megazyme acetic acid assay kit.
6.Three replicas are tested in each group.
