CELL-BASED SYSTEMS FOR PRODUCTION OF METHYL FORMATE |
摘要 |
Disclosed is a process in which a recombinant organism, such as a yeast, expressing a heterologous S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)- dependent methyl halide transferase (MHT) protein is combined with a halide and a carbon source in a cultivation medium under conditions in which methyl formate is produced. The cell may genetically modified to express methyl formate synthase, methanol dehydrogenase and/or hydrolytic dehalogenase at levels higher than a cell of the same species that is not genetically modified. The methyl formate may be collected and used in a variety of applications. The halide may be chlorine, bromine or iodine. |
