Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows researchers to create new microorganisms with improved ability to produce certain compounds through chemical reactions without producing unwanted substances or side products during their process. By deleting genes involved in these processes, this method could improve efficiency and yield compared to traditional methods such as breeding techniques.

Problems solved by technology

This patented describes various ways to modify certain types of organisms called clostraids like those from crops used worldwide to make them better suited for use as biofuels due to their unique structure. However, current techniques have limitations including low yields and excessive costs associated with modifying these species themselves. Therefore, it would be necessary to develop improved processes for making higher levels of specific compounds while reducing waste generated through conventional means.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to a mutant strain for increasing the content of ethanol produced by fermentation of synthesis gas, construction and an application of the mutant strain and a method for increasing the content of ethanol produced by fermentation of synthesis gas of the mutant strain obtained by genetic engineering means. The mutant strain is mutation obtained by deletion or inactivation of 2, 3-butanediol dehydrogenase in clostridium aerovorans. According to the deletion mutant constructed by the invention, the yield of a byproduct 2, 3-butanediol and the proportion of the byproduct 2, 3-butanediol in a total fermentation organic solvent are remarkably reduced under the condition that the normal growth of a strain is hardly influenced. The clostridium yangdaei is taken as an example, the yield of the 2, 3-butanediol is reduced to 2.4 g/L from 16.6 g/L, and the generation of ethanol is basically not influenced. According to the method, the content of the byproduct 2, 3-butanediol in the total fermentation solvent is reduced in a gene deletion manner, and meanwhile, the proportion of ethanol in the total fermentation solvent is increased, so that the separation cost of the fermentation liquor is reduced, and the method has important significance on industrial implementation of fuel ethanol production through synthesis gas fermentation.
