Ethanologenesis and respiration in a pyruvate decarboxylase-deficient Zymomonas mobilis
Rutkis, Reinis; Strazdina, Inese; Lasa, Zane; Bruheim, Per; Kalnenieks, Uldis (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Objective Zymomonas mobilis is an alpha-proteobacterium with a rapid ethanologenic pathway, involving Entner–Doudoroff (E–D) glycolysis, pyruvate decarboxylase (Pdc) and two alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isoenzymes. Pyruvate ... -
Improvement of acetaldehyde production in Zymomonas mobilis by engineering of its aerobic metabolism
Kalnenieks, Uldis; Balodite, Elina; Strahler, Steffi; Strazdina, Inese; Rex, Julia; Pentjuss, Agris; Fuchino, Katsuya; Bruheim, Per; Rutkis, Reinis; Pappas, Katherine M.; Poole, Robert K.; Sawodny, Oliver; Bettenbrock, Katja (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Acetaldehyde is a valuable product of microbial biosynthesis, which can be used by the chemical industry as the entry point for production of various commodity chemicals. In ethanologenic microorganisms, like yeast or the ... -
Metabolic Profiling of Glucose-Fed Metabolically Active Resting Zymomonas mobilis Strains
Fuchino, Katsuya; Kalnenieks, Uldis; Rutkis, Reinis; Grube, Mara; Bruheim, Per (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Zymomonas mobilis is the most efficient bacterial ethanol producer and its physiology is potentially applicable to industrial-scale bioethanol production. However, compared to other industrially important microorganisms, ...
