Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 (AM1), a model strain of methylotrophic cell factories (MeCFs) could be used to produce fine chemicals from methanol. Synthesis of heterologous products usually needs reducing cofactors, but AM1 growing on methanol lack reducing power. Formate could be used as a reducing agent. In this study, mevalonic acid (MEV) yield of 0.067 gMEV/g methanol was reached by adding...
Background
Methylorubrum extorquens AM1 can be engineered to convert methanol to value‐added chemicals. Most of these chemicals derive from acetyl‐CoA involved in the serine cycle. However, recent studies on methylotrophic metabolism have suggested that C3 pyruvate is a good potential precursor for broadening the types of synthesized products.
Methods and Results
In the present study, we found...
