Abstract:
A genetically engineered yeast cell that produces a pyruvate-based metabolite from pyruvate, wherein activity of a mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) is reduced compared to a parent yeast cell and a method of producing the pyruvate-based metabolite using the yeast cell.
Abstract:
A recombinantly modified Corynebacterium glutamicum microorganism with an improved 1,4-butanediol (1,4-BDO) productivity relative to an unmodified Corynebacterium glutamicum microorganism, wherein activity of an enzyme catalyzing a conversion reaction between malate and oxaloacetate is inactivated or reduced relative to an unmodified Corynebacterium glutamicum microorganism, as well as a method of making and using same.
