PROCESS FOR PRODUCING GLUTARATE AND GLUTARIC ACID METHYL ESTER

摘要

This document describes biochemical pathways for producing 2,4-pentadienoyl-CoA by forming one or two terminal functional groups, comprised of carboxyl or hydroxyl group, in a C5 backbone substrate such as glutaryl-CoA, glutaryl-[acp] or glutarate methyl ester. 2,4-pentadienoyl-CoA can be enzymatically converted to 1,3-butadiene.
