FDCA (2,5-furandicarboxylic acid) can be enzymatically converted from HMF (5-hydroxymethylfurfural). S12 is promising for FDCA production, but generating stable S12 is difficult due to its polyploidy and lack of genome engineering tools. Here we showed that coupling CRISPR and λ-Red recombineering enabled one-step gene integration with high efficiency and frequency, and simultaneously replaced endogenous genes in all chromosomes. Using this approach, we generated two stable S12 strains expressing HMF/furfural oxidoreductase (HMFH) and HMF oxidase (HMFO), both being able to convert 50 mM HMF to ≈42-43 mM FDCA in 24 h. Cosupplementation of MnO and CaCO to the medium drastically improved the cell tolerance to HMF and enhanced FDCA production. Cointegrating and (HMF transporter) genes further improved FDCA production, enabling the cells to convert 250 mM HMF to 196 mM (30.6 g/L) FDCA in 24 h. This study implicates the potentials of CRISPR for generating stable S12 strains for FDCA production.

Converting biomass-derived molecules like 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into value-added products alongside hydrogen production using renewable energy offers significant opportunities for sustainable chemical and energy production. Yet, HMF electrooxidation requires strong alkaline conditions and membranes for efficient conversion. These harsh conditions destabilize HMF, leading to humin formation and reduced product purity, meanwhile membranes increase costs.

Electrocatalytic biomass conversion using green electricity is regarded as an important strategy to meet the requirement of sustainable development. NiCo2O4 electrodes with different morphologies and electronic structures were fabricated by changing the precipitants used in the solvothermal process, and applied in the electrocatalytic 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation (HMFOR). The experimental and theoretical calculation results showed NiCo2O4 nanosheets (NCO-Ns) with low Co/Ni ratio exhibited larger adsorption energy towards HMF and superior intrinsic catalytic activity in HMFOR, while NiCo2O4 nanoneedles (NCO-Nn) with larger electrochemical active surface areas presented faster electron transfer kinetics and enhanced catalytic performance for 50 mM HMF with a higher conversion rate (99.
