Method for the production of 1,3-propanediol by recombinant organisms comprisinggenes for vitamin b12 transport

摘要

Recombinant organisms are provided comprising genes encoding genes encoding glycerol dehydratase, 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase, a gene encoding vitamin B12 receptor precursor(BtuB), a gene encoding vitamin B12 transport system permease protein(BtuC) and a gene encoding vitamin B12 transport ATP-binding protein (BtuD). The recombinant microorganism is contacted with a carbon substrate and 1,3-propanediol is isolated from the growth media.
