A non-naturally occurring microbial organism having an isopropanol, 4-hydroxybutryate, or 1,4-butanediol pathway includes at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an isopropanol, 4-hydroxybutryate, or 1,4-butanediol pathway enzyme expressed in a sufficient amount to produce isopropanol, 4-hydroxybutryate, or 1,4-butanediol. The aforementioned organisms are cultured to produce isopropanol, 4-hydroxybutryate, or 1,4-butanediol. |

1. A non-naturally occurring microbial organism comprising:
(i) a 1,4-butanediol pathway, wherein said microbial organism comprises at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding a 1,4-butanediol pathway enzyme expressed in a sufficient amount to produce 1,4-butanediol, wherein said 1,4-butanediol pathway enzyme is selected from the group consisting of an acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase, a 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase, a crotonase, a crotonyl-CoA hydratase, a 4-hydroxybutyryl-CoA reductase (alcohol forming), a 4-hydroxybutyryl-CoA reductase (aldehyde forming), and a 1,4-butanediol dehydrogenase; and (ii) an acetyl-CoA pathway, wherein said microbial organism comprises at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an acetyl-CoA pathway enzyme expressed in a sufficient amount to produce acetyl-CoA, wherein said acetyl-CoA pathway enzyme is selected from the group consisting of a corrinoid protein, a methyltetrahydrofolate:corrinoid protein methyltransferase, a corrinoid iron-sulfur protein, a nickel-protein assembly protein, a ferredoxin, a carbon monoxide dehydrogenase, a pyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase, and a hydrogenase. |
