Improved succinic acid production through the reconstruction of methanol dissimilation in Escherichia coli

Bioresources and Bioprocessing, 2022
Synthetic biology has boosted the rapid development on using non-methylotrophy as chassis for value added chemicals production from one-carbon feedstocks, such as methanol and formic acid.

Adaptive genetic traits in pelagic freshwater microbes

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 3, Page 606-641, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Pelagic microbes have adopted distinct strategies to inhabit the pelagial of lakes and oceans and can be broadly categorized in two groups: free‐living, specialized oligotrophs and patch‐associated generalists or copiotrophs. In this review, we aim to identify genomic traits that enable pelagic freshwater microbes to thrive in their habitat ...

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.

Methanol-essential growth of Escherichia coli

Nature Communications, 2018
Engineering synthetic methylotrophy remains challenging. Here, the authors engineer a methanol-essential E. coli by an in silico-guided multiple knockout approach and show a laboratory evolved strain can incorporate up to 24% methanol into core ...

Natural Selection in Synthetic Communities Highlights the Roles of Methylococcaceae and Methylophilaceae and Suggests Differential Roles for Alternative Methanol Dehydrogenases in Methane Consumption

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
We describe experiments that follow species dynamics and gene expression patterns in synthetic bacterial communities including species that compete for the single carbon substrate supplied, methane, and species unable to consume methane, which could only

Regulatory interventions improve the biosynthesis of limiting amino acids from methanol carbon to improve synthetic methylotrophy in Escherichia coli

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2020
AbstractSynthetic methylotrophy aims to engineer methane and methanol utilization pathways in platform hosts like Escherichia coli for industrial bioprocessing of natural gas and biogas. While recent attempts to engineer synthetic methylotrophs have proved successful, autonomous methylotrophy, that is, the ability to utilize methane or methanol as sole

A synthetic biology toolkit for the plasmid-dependent and thermophilic methylotroph Bacillus methanolicus

Cell Reports
Summary: Bacillus methanolicus, a unique plasmid-dependent and thermophilic methylotroph, is an ideal chassis for one-carbon (C1) biomanufacturing. Despite its evolutionary uniqueness and industrial promise, the synthetic biology toolkit remains limited ...

Constructing efficient bacterial cell factories to enable one-carbon utilization based on quantitative biology: A review. [PDF]

Quant Biol
Abstract Developing methylotrophic cell factories that can efficiently catalyze organic one‐carbon (C1) feedstocks derived from electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide into bio‐based chemicals and biofuels is of strategic significance for building a carbon‐neutral, sustainable economic and industrial system.

Resistance and Recovery of Crop Productivity From Contrasted Soil Fertility

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The balance between crop production and environmental sustainability depends on an adequate supply of soil nutrients, although changes in nutrient supply may initially have little effect on crop production due to the buffering effects of soil nutrients and the overall resilience of the system.
