NJTech-China-B # 1,5-PDO factory：Engineering Escherichia coli for the de novo production of 1,5-pentanediol # 1,5-Pentanediol (1,5-PDO) is one typical C5 diol commonly used as a building block for the production of polyurethane coating and have a broad market. Currently, commercial manufacture of 1,5-PDO entirely relies on petroleum feedstock, which is constrained by the limited accessible C5 petroleum feedstocks. In our work, we developed a cell factoryĀto produce 1,5-PDO from glucose in Escherichia coli through the synthetic biology tools. ...
