Characterization of an extracellular lipase and its chaperone from Ralstonia eutropha H16 [PDF]

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2012
Lipase enzymes catalyze the reversible hydrolysis of triacylglycerol to fatty acids and glycerol at the lipid-water interface. The metabolically versatile Ralstonia eutropha strain H16 is capable of utilizing various molecules containing long carbon chains such as plant oil, organic acids, or Tween as its sole carbon source for growth.

Continuous feeding strategy for polyhydroxyalkanoate production from solid waste animal fat at laboratory‐ and pilot‐scale

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 295-306, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Bioconversion of waste animal fat (WAF) to polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) is an approach to lower the production costs of these plastic alternatives. However, the solid nature of WAF requires a tailor‐made process development. In this study, a double‐jacket feeding system was built to thermally liquefy the WAF to employ a continuous feeding ...

IN SILICO ANALYSIS OF PHAG-LIKE PROTEIN IN RALSTONIA EUTROPHA H16, POTENTIALLY INVOLVED IN POLYHYDROXYALKANOATES SYNTHESIS

Revista Politécnica, 2019
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are synthesised by bacteria as carbon storage material. The protein PhaG directs carbon from non-related carbon sources such as glycerol, metabolised through fatty acid de novo synthesis (FAS) pathway, with PHA synthesis.

Rational engineering of natural polyhydroxyalkanoates producing microorganisms for improved synthesis and recovery

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 262-285, February 2023., 2023
This review describes the attempts to rationally engineering the cellular operation of several microbes to elevate PHA production on specific substrates and waste products. We also delve into genome reduction, morphology, and redox cofactor engineering to boost PHA biosynthesis.

Leveraging substrate flexibility and product selectivity of acetogens in two‐stage systems for chemical production

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 218-237, February 2023., 2023
Carbon dioxide recycling is a compelling need and microbial carbon dioxide fixation in value‐added compounds is a valuable opportunity. Fermentation of CO2 gas streams using acetogenic bacteria is consolidating as a key biotechnology to move toward a cyclic carbon economy.

Poly-3-hydroxybutyrate production from acetate by recombinant Pseudomonas stutzeri with blocked L-leucine catabolism and enhanced growth in acetate

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Acetate is a low-cost feedstock for the production of different bio-chemicals. Electrochemical reduction of CO2 into acetate and subsequent acetate fermentation is a promising method for transforming CO2 into value-added chemicals.
