20100068773 | MICROBIOLOGICAL PRODUCTION OF 3-HYDROXYISOBUTYRIC ACID - The present invention relates to a cell which has been modified in comparison with its wild type in such a way that it is capable of forming more, by comparison with its wild, 3-hydroxyisobutyric acid or poly-hydroxyalkanoates based on 3-hydroxyisobutyric acid via methylmalonate-semialdehyde or 3-hydroxybutyryl-coenzyme A as precursors. The invention also relates to a method of generating a genetically modified cell, to the genetically modified cell obtainable by these methods, to a method of producing 3-hydroxyisobutyric acid or polyhydroxyalkanoates based on 3-hydroxyisobutyric acid, to a method of producing methacrylic acid or methacrylic esters, and to a method of producing polymethacrylic acid or polymethacrylic esters. The present invention furthermore relates to an isolated DNA, to a vector, to the use of this vector for transforming a cell, to a transformed cell, and to a polypeptide. | 03-18-2010 |

20110171702 | RECOMBINANT CELL PRODUCING 2-HYDROXYISOBUTYRIC ACID - The invention relates to a cell which has been genetically modified so as to be capable of producing more 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid or more polyhydroxyalkanoates containing 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid monomer units than its wild type, characterized in that 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid or polyhydroxyalkanoates containing 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid monomer units are produced via acetoacetyl-coenzyme A as intermediate and 3-hydroxybutyryl-coenzyme A as precursor. | 07-14-2011 |
20130164797 | PROCESS FOR THE IMPROVED SEPARATION OF A HYDROPHOBIC ORGANIC SOLUTION FROM AN AQUEOUS CULTURE MEDIUM - A process for the improved separation of a hydrophobic organic solution from an aqueous culture medium is provided. The process includes preparing an aqueous culture medium of a metabolically active cell having a decreased activity; contacting of the aqueous culture medium with a hydrophobic organic solution comprising a substrate for biotransformation; conducting a biotransformation of the substrate; and separating the hydrophobic organic solution comprising a biotransformed substrate from the aqueous culture medium. The decreased activity of the metabolically active cell is in comparison to a wild-type of the active cell and the decreased activity is of at least of one enzyme that catalyses one reaction of β-oxidation of fatty acids. The invention further provides a metabolically active cell that has a decreased activity, compared to its wild-type, of an enzyme that catalyses one of the reactions of the β-oxidation of fatty acids, including an enzyme selected from FadA, FadB, FadD, FadL and FadE as well as variants thereof. | 06-27-2013 |
