The lactic acid bacterium Limosilactobacillus reuteri (formerly Lactobacillus reuteri) is a desirable host for the production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) from glycerol when 1,3-PDO is used in the food or cosmetic industry. However, the production is hindered by strain instability, causing cell lysis, and difficult gene manipulation. This study rev...

Phosphoserine aminotransferase (SerC) from Escherichia coli (E. coli) MG1655 is engineered to catalyze the deamination of homoserine to 4-hydroxy-2-ketobutyrate, a key reaction in producing 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) from glucose in a novel glycerol-independent metabolic pathway. To this end, a computation-based rational approach is used to change t...

In this work, vapor liquid equilibria (VLE) data for the binary systems containing {water or methanol (1) + 1,3-propanediol (2)} are reported. All measurements were performed in the temperature range of (273.15–343.15 (or 363.15)) K over the whole composition range. The experimental data were correlated using the NRTL, UNIQUAC and Modified UNIFAC (...

The microbial production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) from raw glycerol, a byproduct of biodiesel production, is economically and environmentally advantageous. Although direct use of raw glycerol without any pretreatment is desirable, previous studies have reported that this could cause inhibition of microbial growth. In this study, we investigated ...

ABSTRACT Among the promising bulk chemicals, 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) and 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) are two bio-based diols, which have a wide range of applications in cosmetic and food industry, as antifreezes, lubricants, fuel additives, as well as in the production of polymers. The possibility to obtain diols from the waste glycerol is topical by ...
