INTEGRATION OF A POLYNUCLEOTIDE ENCODING A POLYPEPTIDE THAT CATALYZES PYRUVATE TO ACETOLACTATE CONVERSION

摘要

The invention relates to recombinant host cells having at least one integrated polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide that catalyzes a step in a pyruvate-utilizing biosynthetic pathway, e.g., pyruvate to acetolactate conversion. The invention also relates to methods of increasing the biosynthetic production of isobutanol, 2,3-butanediol, 2-butanol or 2-butanone using such host cells.
