Background Zymomonas mobilis is a natural ethanologen with many desirable
characteristics, making it an ideal platform for future biorefineries. Recently, an endogenous …

Due to the unique Entner‐Doudoroff pathway, Zymomonas mobilis has been acknowledged
as a potential host to be engineered for biorefinery to produce biofuels and biobased …

2, 3-Butanediol (2, 3-BD) is an important platform chemical that can be produced
biologically. It is currently fermented below 40° C using mesophilic strains at acid to neutral …

Lactate is an important monomer for the synthesis of poly-lactate (PLA), which is a substitute
for the petrochemical plastics. To achieve the goal of high lactate titer, rate, and yield for …

Butanediol (BDO) is a bio‐derived building block available from biomass through
biochemical methods in high titers (> 120 g L− 1) making it an attractive target for production …

We previously engineered Enterobacter aerogenes for glucose and xylose co-utilization and
2, 3-butanediol production. Here, strain EMY-22 was further engineered to improve the 2, 3 …

Utilization of both C5 and C6 sugars to produce biofuels and bioproducts is a key goal for
the development of integrated lignocellulosic biorefineries. Previously we found that …

Zymomonas mobilis metabolizes sugar anaerobically through the Entner-Doudoroff pathway
with less ATP generated for lower biomass accumulation to direct more sugar for product …

Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 has recently been used for a variety of biotechnological purposes.
To rationally enhance its metabolic performance, a reliable genome-scale metabolic …

Butanediol (2, 3‐BDO) is a promising bulk chemical owing to its high potential in industrial
applications. Here, we engineered Klebsiella oxytoca for the economic production of 2, 3 …
