Operon for butanoate pathway
| Types | DnaRegion |
| Roles | engineered_region Composite |
| Sequences | BBa_I725100_sequence (Version 1) |
Description
The butanoate pathway in Clostridium acetobutylicum from acetyl-CoA to butanol requires five (or six) enzymes. In order, these are acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase (thiolase in E. coli), B-hydroxy butyryl coA dehydrogenase, Enoyl-coA hydratase (from E. coli), Butyryl coA Dehydrogenase, Butyraldehyde dehydrogenase, and Butanol dehydrogenase. It is unclear whether the E. coli thiolase will be sufficient for butanol production in E. coli or whether overexpression will be required. Subsequently, it is not included in this version of the operon.Notes
Each gene is preceded by its own RBS. Transformation as the part gets larger becomes more difficult and efficiencies decrease accordingly.Source
