Patent

CA 2646641

Methods for the fermentive production of four carbon alcohols are provided. Specifically, butanol, preferably 2-butanol is produced by the fermentive growth of a recombinant bacteria expressing a 2- butanol biosynthetic pathway. The recombinant microorganisms and methods of the invention can also be adapted to produce 2-butanone, an intermediate in the 2-butanol biosynthetic pathways disclosed herein.

Cette invention concerne des procédés de production par fermentation d'alcools à quatre atomes de carbone. Plus spécifiquement, du butanol, de préférence du 2-butanol, est produit par la croissance fermentaire d'une bactérie recombinante exprimant une voie biosynthétique du 2-butanol. Les micro-organismes recombinants et les procédés de cette invention peuvent également servir à produire du 2-butanone, un intermédiaire dans les voies biosynthétiques du 2-butanol.
