High-efficiency production of 5-hydroxyectoine using metabolically engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum.

Background: Extremolytes enable microbes to withstand even the most extreme conditions in nature. Due to their unique protective properties, the small organic molecules, more and more, become high-value active ingredients for the cosmetics and the pharmaceutical industries. While ectoine, the industrial extremolyte flagship, has been successfully commercialized before, an economically viable route to its highly interesting derivative 5-hydroxyectoine (hydroxyectoine) is not existing.

Cascaded valorization of brown seaweed to produce l-lysine and value-added products using Corynebacterium glutamicum streamlined by systems metabolic engineering.

Seaweeds emerge as promising third-generation renewable for sustainable bioproduction. In the present work, we valorized brown seaweed to produce l-lysine, the world's leading feed amino acid, using Corynebacterium glutamicum, which was streamlined by systems metabolic engineering. The mutant C.

Metabolic Engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum for High-Level Ectoine Production: Design, Combinatorial Assembly, and Implementation of a Transcriptionally Balanced Heterologous Ectoine Pathway.

Ectoine is formed in various bacteria as cell protectant against all kinds of stress. Its preservative and protective effects have enabled various applications in medicine, cosmetics, and biotechnology, and ectoine therefore has high commercial value. Industrially, ectoine is produced in a complex high-salt process, which imposes constraints on the costs, design, and durability of the fermentation system.

Lysine production from the sugar alcohol mannitol: Design of the cell factory Corynebacterium glutamicum SEA-3 through integrated analysis and engineering of metabolic pathway fluxes.

The amino acid lysine is among the world's most important biotechnological products, and enabling its manufacture from the most attractive new materials is an ever-present challenge. In this study, we describe a cell factory of Corynebacterium glutamicum, which produces lysine from mannitol. A preliminary mutant C.
