Abstract
3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an important intermediate compound in the chemical industry. Green and environmentally friendly microbial synthesis methods are becoming increasingly popular in a range of industries. Compared to other chassis cells, Yarrowia lipolytica possesses advantages, such as high tolerance to organic acid and a sufficient precursor required to synthesize 3-HP. In this study, gene manipulations, including the overexpression of genes MCR-NCa, MCR-CCa, GAPNSm, ACC1 and ACSSeL641P and knocking out bypass genes MLS1 and CIT2, leading to the glyoxylate cycle, were performed to construct a recombinant strain. Based on this, the degradation pathway of 3-HP in Y. lipolytica was discovered, and relevant genes MMSDH and HPDH were knocked out. To our knowledge, this study is the first to produce 3-HP in Y. lipolytica. The yield of 3-HP in recombinant strain Po1f-NC-14 in shake flask fermentation reached 1.128 g·L-1, and the yield in fed-batch fermentation reached 16.23 g·L-1. These results are highly competitive compared to other yeast chassis cells. This study creates the foundation for the production of 3-HP in Y. lipolytica and also provides a reference for further research in the future.

Abstract
This review covers the operating conditions for extracting top value-added chemicals, such as levulinic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, vanillic acid, 3-hydroxypropionic acid, xylitol, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural, chitosan, 2,3-butanediol, and xylo-oligosaccharides, from common lignocellulosic biomass. Operating principles of novel extraction methods, beyond pretreatments, such as Soxhlet extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and enzymatic extraction, are also presented and reviewed. Post extraction, high-value biochemicals need to be isolated, which is achieved through a combination of one or more isolation and purification steps. The operating principles, as well as a review of isolation methods, such as membrane filtration and liquid–liquid extraction and purification using preparative chromatography, are also discussed.

Abstract
The recent decline of the international biodiesel industry has led to decreased production and therefore increased the price of glycerol, which is a major by-product of biodiesel but a substrate for production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP), that is, glycerol as a feedstock has no advantage over glucose in price. Hence, we engineered glucose to the glycerol pathway and improved 3-HP production by CRISPR interference (CRISPRi). To begin with, we cloned the genes encoding glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd1) and glycerol 3-phosphatase (gpp2) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which jointly catalyze glucose into glycerol. The genes gpd1 and gpp2 were co-expressed in K. pneumoniae with the dCas9 gene integrated in genome, and this recombinant strain produced 2 g/L glycerol in the shake flask. To minimize the glucose consumption by competing pathways including the EMP pathway, glycerol oxidation pathway, and by-products pathways, we developed an CRISPRi system in aforementioned recombinant K. pneumoniae strain to inhibit the expression of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (gapA) and 2,3-butanediol production gene (budA), resulting in a bi-functional strain harboring both glucose-to-glycerol pathway and CRISPRi system. Reverse transcription and quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) results showed that this engineered CRISPRi system transcriptionally inhibited gapA and budA by 82% and 24%, respectively. In shake flask cultivation, this bi-functional strain produced 2.8 g/L glycerol using glucose as the carbon source, which was 46.6% increase compared to the strain without the engineered CRISPRi system. Moreover, this bi-functional strain produced 0.78 g/L 3-HP using glucose as the sole carbon source. In fed-batch cultivation, this bi-functional strain produced 1.77 g/L 3-HP. This study provides insights for co-utilization of distinct carbon sources.

Abstract
Acrylic acid is a value-added chemical used in industry to produce diapers, coatings, paints, and adhesives, among many others. Due to its economic importance, there is currently a need for new and sustainable ways to synthesise it. Recently, the focus has been laid in the use of Escherichia coli to express the full bio-based pathway using 3-hydroxypropionate as an intermediary through three distinct pathways (glycerol, malonyl-CoA, and β-alanine). Hence, the goals of this work were to use COPASI software to assess which of the three pathways has a higher potential for industrial-scale production, from either glucose or glycerol, and identify potential targets to improve the biosynthetic pathways yields. When compared to the available literature, the models developed during this work successfully predict the production of 3-hydroxypropionate, using glycerol as carbon source in the glycerol pathway, and using glucose as a carbon source in the malonyl-CoA and β-alanine pathways. Finally, this work allowed to identify four potential over-expression targets (glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3pD), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (AccC), aspartate aminotransferase (AspAT), and aspartate carboxylase (AspC)) that should, theoretically, result in higher AA yields.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glycerol-based biosynthesis of 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) in Klebsiella pneumoniae involves two reactions: glycerol conversion to 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) by glycerol dehydratase, and 3-HPA conversion to 3-HP by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). The ALDH catalysis consumes a lot of cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), which constrains 3-HP production. RESULTS Here we report that intensifying niacin-based biosynthesis of NAD+ can substantially enhance 3-HP production. We constructed tac promoter-driven NAD+ synthesis pathway in K. pneumoniae. The strain only overexpressing nicotinate phosphoribosyltransferase (PncB) showed 14.24% increase in the production of NAD+ relative to the stain harboring an empty vector. When PncB was coexpressed with PuuC (one of native ALDHs), the recombinant strain exhibited increased ALDH activity but slightly reduced 3-HP production due to plasmid burden. When 30 mg niacin l-1 (a substrate for biosynthesis of NAD+) was added into shake flask, the strain produced 0.55 g 3-HP l-1, which was 2.75 times that of the control. In a 5-L bioreactor, replenishment of niacin led to 36.43% increase of 3-HP production. CONCLUSIONS These results indicated that intensifying niacin-based biosynthesis of NAD+ boosts 3-HP production.

Abstract
As climate change is an important environmental issue, the conventional petrochemical-based processes to produce valuable chemicals are being shifted toward eco-friendly biological-based processes. In this study, 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP), an industrially important three carbon (C3) chemical, was overproduced by metabolically engineered Escherichia coli using glycerol as a sole carbon source. As the first step to construct a glycerol-dependent 3-HP biosynthetic pathway, the dhaB1234 and gdrAB genes from Klebsiella pneumoniae encoding glycerol dehydratase and glycerol reactivase, respectively, were introduced into E. coli to convert glycerol into 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA). In addition, the ydcW gene from K. pneumoniae encoding γ-aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase, among five aldehyde dehydrogenases examined, was selected to further convert 3-HPA to 3-HP. Increasing the expression level of the ydcW gene enhanced 3-HP production titer and reduced 1,3-propanediol production. To enhance 3-HP production, fed-batch fermentation conditions were optimized by controlling dissolved oxygen (DO) level and employing different feeding strategies including intermittent feeding, pH-stat feeding, and continuous feeding strategies. Fed-batch culture of the final engineered E. coli strain with DO control and continuous feeding strategy produced 76.2 g/L of 3-HP with the yield and productivity of 0.457 g/g glycerol and 1.89 g·L-1 ·h-1 , respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest 3-HP productivity achieved by any microorganism reported to date.

Abstract
3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) can be converted into derivatives such as acrylic acid, a source for producing super absorbent polymers. Although Escherichia coli has often been used for 3-HP production, it exhibits low tolerance to 3-HP. To circumvent this problem, we selected the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as this microorganism has higher tolerance to 3-HP than E. coli. Therefore, we constructed S. pombe transformants overexpressing two genes, one encoding the S. pombe acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Cut6p) and the other encoding the malonyl-CoA reductase derived from Chloroflexus aurantiacus (CaMCR). To prevent the degradation of these expressed proteins, we employed an S. pombe protease-deficient strain. Moreover, to increase the cytosolic concentration of acetyl-CoA, we supplemented acetate to the medium, which improved 3-HP production. To further produce 3-HP by overexpressing Cut6p and CaMCR, we exploited the highly expressing S. pombe hsp9 promoter. Finally, culturing in high-density reached 3-HP production to 7.6 g/L at 31 h.

Abstract
3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an important platform chemical to be converted to acrylic acid and acrylamide. Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction of 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) to 3-HP, determines 3-HP production rate during the conversion of glycerol to 3-HP. To elucidate molecular mechanism of 3-HP production, we determined the first crystal structure of a 3-HP producing ALDH, α-ketoglutarate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase from Azospirillum basilensis (AbKGSADH), in its apo-form and in complex with NAD+. Although showing an overall structure similar to other ALDHs, the AbKGSADH enzyme had an optimal substrate binding site for accepting 3-HPA as a substrate. Molecular docking simulation of 3-HPA into the AbKGSADH structure revealed that the residues Asn159, Gln160 and Arg163 stabilize the aldehyde- and the hydroxyl-groups of 3-HPA through hydrogen bonds, and several hydrophobic residues, such as Phe156, Val286, Ile288, and Phe450, provide the optimal size and shape for 3-HPA binding. We also compared AbKGSADH with other reported 3-HP producing ALDHs for the crucial amino acid residues for enzyme catalysis and substrate binding, which provides structural implications on how these enzymes utilize 3-HPA as a substrate.

Abstract
The chemical 3-hydroxypropionate (3HP) is an important starting reagent for the commercial synthesis of specialty chemicals. In this study, a part of the 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle from Metallosphaera sedula was utilized for 3HP production. To study the basic biochemistry of this pathway, an in vitro-reconstituted system was established using acetyl-CoA as the substrate for the kinetic analysis of this system. The results indicated that 3HP formation was sensitive to acetyl-CoA carboxylase and malonyl-CoA reductase, but not malonate semialdehyde reductase. Also, the competition between 3HP formation and fatty acid production was analyzed both in vitro and in vivo. This study has highlighted how metabolic flux is controlled by different catalytic components. We believe that this reconstituted system would be valuable for understanding 3HP biosynthesis pathway and for future engineering studies to enhance 3HP production.

Abstract
3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an important platform chemical with a wide range of applications. So far large-scale production of 3-HP has been mainly through petroleum-based chemical processes, whose sustainability and environmental issues have attracted widespread attention. With the ability to fix CO2 directly, cyanobacteria have been engineered as an autotrophic microbial cell factory to produce fuels and chemicals. In this study, we constructed the biosynthetic pathway of 3-HP in cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, and then optimized the system through the following approaches: i) increasing expression of malonyl-CoA reductase (MCR) gene using different promoters and cultivation conditions; ii) enhancing supply of the precursor malonyl-CoA by overexpressing acetyl-CoA carboxylase and biotinilase; iii) improving NADPH supply by overexpressing the NAD(P) transhydrogenase gene; iv) directing more carbon flux into 3-HP by inactivating the competing pathways of PHA and acetate biosynthesis. Together, the efforts led to a production of 837.18 mg L(-1) (348.8 mg/g dry cell weight) 3-HP directly from CO2 in Synechocystis after 6 days cultivation, demonstrating the feasibility photosynthetic production of 3-HP directly from sunlight and CO2 in cyanobacteria. In addition, the results showed that overexpression of the ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) gene from Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 and Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 led to no increase of 3-HP production, suggesting CO2 fixation may not be a rate-limiting step for 3-HP biosynthesis in Synechocystis.

Abstract
Background 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an important platform for the production of C3 chemicals, including acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, and acrylamide. Microbial production of 3-HP is mainly due to glycerol metabolism. In this study, in order to improve microbial 3-HP production, we applied a metabolic toggle switch for controlling the glycerol metabolism to redirect the excess metabolic flux of central metabolic pathway toward an exogenous 3-HP producing pathway in Escherichia coli. Results The metabolic toggle switch enables conditional repression of the expression of a target gene during the fermentation. We individually performed conditional repression of glpK, tpiA, and gapA, which are involved in glycerol metabolism. The conditional repression of glpK and tpiA was not effective for 3-HP production under our experimental conditions. However, gapA conditional repression contributed to improve 3-HP production (titer, 54.2 ± 1.5 mM; yield, 32.1 ± 1.3 %) compared with that for the wild type strain. Additional deletion of endogenous yqhD, which is responsible for the production of a major byproduct, 1,3-propandiol, further increased 3-HP production (titer, 67.3 ± 2.1 mM; yield, 51.5 ± 3.2 %). The titer and yield were 80 and 94 % higher than those of the wild type strain, respectively. The obtained 3-HP yield from glycerol is comparable with the highest yield ever reported for microbial 3-HP production using glycerol as a sole carbon source. The measurement of intracellular metabolites showed the metabolic toggle switch successfully controlled the metabolic flux. Conclusion The conditional repression of gapA by using the metabolic toggle switch combined with deletion of endogeneous yqhD increased 3-HP production approximately twofold from glycerol. This result indicates the metabolic toggle switch can be applied in various bio-production using diverse substrates.

Abstract
Production of bulk chemicals from renewable biomass has been proved to be sustainable and environmentally friendly. Escherichia coli is the most commonly used host strain for constructing cell factories for production of bulk chemicals since it has clear physiological and genetic characteristics, grows fast in minimal salts medium, uses a wide range of substrates, and can be genetically modified easily. With the development of metabolic engineering, systems biology, and synthetic biology, a technology platform has been established to construct E. coli cell factories for bulk chemicals production. In this chapter, we will introduce this technology platform, as well as E. coli cell factories successfully constructed for production of organic acids and alcohols.

Abstract
3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) can be produced in microorganisms as a versatile platform chemical. However, owing to the toxicity of the intermediate product 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA), the minimization of 3-HPA accumulation is critical for enhancing the productivity of 3-HP. In this study, we identified a novel aldehyde dehydrogenase, GabD4 from Cupriavidus necator, and found that it possessed the highest enzyme activity toward 3-HPA reported to date. To augment the activity of GabD4, several variants were obtained by site-directed and saturation mutagenesis based on homology modeling. Escherichia coli transformed with the mutant GabD4_E209Q/E269Q showed the highest enzyme activity, which was 1.4-fold higher than that of wild type GabD4, and produced up to 71.9 g L(-1) of 3-HP with a productivity of 1.8 g L(-1) h(-1) . To the best of our knowledge, these are the highest 3-HP titer and productivity values among those reported in the literature. Additionally, our study demonstrates that GabD4 can be a key enzyme for the development of industrial 3-HP-producing microbial strains, and provides further insight into the mechanism of aldehyde dehydrogenase activity.

Abstract
Background 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3HP) is an important chemical precursor for the production of bioplastics. Microbial production of 3HP from glycerol has previously been developed through the optimization of culture conditions and the 3HP biosynthesis pathway. In this study, a novel strategy for improving 3HP production in Escherichia coli was investigated by the modification of central metabolism based on a genome-scale metabolic model and experimental validation. Results Metabolic simulation identified the double knockout of tpiA and zwf as a candidate for improving 3HP production. A 3HP-producing strain was constructed by the expression of glycerol dehydratase and aldehyde dehydrogenase. The double knockout of tpiA and zwf increased the percentage carbon-molar yield (C-mol%) of 3HP on consumed glycerol 4.4-fold (20.1 ± 9.2 C-mol%), compared to the parental strain. Increased extracellular methylglyoxal concentrations in the ΔtpiA Δzwf strain indicated that glycerol catabolism was occurring through the methylglyoxal pathway, which converts dihydroxyacetone phosphate to pyruvate, as predicted by the metabolic model. Since the ΔtpiA Δzwf strain produced abundant 1,3-propanediol as a major byproduct (37.7 ± 13.2 C-mol%), yqhD, which encodes an enzyme involved in the production of 1,3-propanediol, was disrupted in the ΔtpiA Δzwf strain. The 3HP yield of the ΔtpiA Δzwf ΔyqhD strain (33.9 ± 1.2 C-mol%) was increased 1.7-fold further compared to the ΔtpiA Δzwf strain and by 7.4-fold compared to the parental strain. Conclusion This study successfully increased 3HP production by 7.4-fold in the ΔtpiA Δzwf ΔyqhD E. coli strain by the modification of the central metabolism, based on metabolic simulation and experimental validation of engineered strains.

Abstract
3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an attractive platform chemical, which can be used to produce a variety of commodity chemicals, such as acrylic acid and acrylamide. For enabling a sustainable alternative to petrochemicals as the feedstock for these commercially important chemicals, fermentative production of 3-HP is widely investigated and is centered on bacterial systems in most cases. However, bacteria present certain drawbacks for large-scale organic acid production. In this study, we have evaluated the production of 3-HP in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae through a route from malonyl-CoA, because this allows performing the fermentation at low pH thus making the overall process cheaper. We have further engineered the host strain by increasing availability of the precursor malonyl-CoA and by coupling the production with increased NADPH supply we were able to substantially improve 3-HP production by five-fold, up to a final titer of 463 mg l⁻¹. Our work thus led to a demonstration of 3-HP production in yeast via the malonyl-CoA pathway, and this opens for the use of yeast as a cell factory for production of bio-based 3-HP and derived acrylates in the future.

Abstract
The abilities of the extreme thermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus DSM 8903 to ferment switchgrass (SWG), microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and glucose to hydrogen (H2) in one-step were examined. Hydrogen production from glucose reached the theoretical maximum for dark fermentation of 4 mol H2/mol glucose. The H2 yield on MCC and SWG after 6 days of fermentation was 23.2 mmol H2/L or 9.4 mmol H2/g MCC and 14.3 mmol H2/L or 11.2 mmol H2/g SWG, respectively. The rate of H2 formation however was higher on MCC (0.7 mmol/Lh) than SWG (0.1 mmol/Lh). C. saccharolyticus DSM 8903 was able to produce H2 directly from mechanically-comminuted SWG without any physicochemical or biological pretreatment. Combining four processing steps (pretreatment, enzyme production, saccharification and fermentation) into a single biorefinery operation makes C. saccharolyticus DSM 8903 a promising candidate for consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) of lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
In Klebsiella pneumoniae, 3-hydroxypropaldehyde is converted to 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) with NAD(+) as a cofactor. Although ALDH overexpression stimulates the formation of 3-HP, it ceases to accumulate when NAD(+) is exhausted. Here we show that NAD(+) regeneration, together with ALDH overexpression, facilitates 3-HP production and benefits cell growth. Three distinct NAD(+)-regenerating enzymes: NADH oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase from K. pneumoniae, and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD1) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, were individually expressed in K. pneumoniae. In vitro assay showed their higher activities than that of the control, indicating their capacities to regenerate NAD(+). When they were respectively co-expressed with ALD4, an ALDH from S. cerevisiae, the activities of ALD4 were significantly elevated compared with that expressing ALD4 alone, suggesting that the regenerated NAD(+) enhanced the activity of ALD4. More interestingly, the growth rates of all NAD(+)-regenerating strains were prolonged in comparison with the control, indicating that NAD(+) regeneration stimulated cell proliferation. This study not only reveals the reliance of ALD4 activity on NAD(+) availability but also provides a method for regulating the dha regulon.

Abstract
3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is a value-added chemical for polymer synthesis. For biosynthesis of 3-HP from glycerol, two dhaB and dhaR clusters encoding glycerol dehydratase and its reactivating factor, respectively, were cloned from Lactobacillus brevis KCTC33069 and expressed in Escherichia coli. Coexpression of dhaB and dhaR allowed the recombinant E. coli to convert glycerol to 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde, an intermediate of 3-HP biosynthesis. To produce 3-HP from glycerol, fed-batch fermentation with a two-step feeding strategy was designed to separate the cell growth from the 3-HP production stages. Finally, E. coli JHS00947 expressing L .brevis dhaB and dhaR, and E. coli aldH produced 14.3g/L 3-HP with 0.26 g/L-h productivity, which were 14.6 and 8.53 times higher than those of the batch culture. In conclusion, overexpression of L. brevis dhaB and dhaR clusters and E. coli aldH, and implementation of the two-step feeding strategy enabled recombinant E. coli to convert glycerol to 3-HP efficiently.

Abstract
The pduP gene encodes a propionaldehyde dehydrogenase (PduP) was investigated for the role in 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) glycerol metabolism in Klebsiella pneumoniae. The enzyme assay showed that cell extracts from a pduP mutant strain lacked measurable dehydrogenase activity. Additionally, the mutant strain accumulated the cytotoxic intermediate metabolite 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA), causing both cell death and a lower final 3-HP titer. Ectopic expression of pduP restored normal cell growth to mutant. The enzymatic property of recombinant protein from Escherichia coli was examined, exhibiting a broad substrate specificity, being active on 3-HPA. The present work is thus the first to demonstrate the role of PduP in glycerol metabolism and biosynthesis of 3-HP.

Abstract
In this study, an aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) was over-expressed in Klebsiella pneumoniae for simultaneous production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) and 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO). Various genes encoding ALDH were cloned and expressed in K. pneumoniae, and expression of Escherichia colialdH resulted in the highest 3-HP titer in anaerobic cultures in shake flasks. Anaerobic fed-batch culture of this recombinant strain was further performed in a 5-L reactor. The 3-HP concentration and yield reached 24.4 g/L and 0.18 mol/mol glycerol, respectively, and at the same time 1,3-PDO achieved 49.3 g/L with a yield of 0.43 mol/mol in 24 h. The overall yield of 3-HP plus 1,3-PDO was 0.61 mol/mol. Over-expression of the E. coli AldH also reduced the yields of by-products except for lactate. This study demonstrated the possibility of simultaneous production of 3-HP and 1,3-PDO by K. pneumoniae under anaerobic conditions without supply of vitamin B12.

Abstract
Malonyl-CoA is an intermediary compound that is produced during fatty acid metabolism. Our study aimed to produce the commercially important platform chemical 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) from its immediate precursor malonyl-CoA by recombinant Escherichia coli strains heterologously expressing the mcr gene of Chloroflexus aurantiacus DSM 635, encoding an NADPH-dependent malonyl-CoA reductase (MCR). The recombinant E. coli overexpressing mcr under the T5 promoter showed MCR activity of 0.015 U mg⁻¹ protein in crude cell extract and produced 0.71 mmol/L of 3-HP in 24h in shake flask cultivation under aerobic conditions with glucose as the sole source of carbon. When acetyl-CoA carboxylase and biotinilase, encoded by the genes accADBCb (ACC) of E. coli K-12 were overexpressed along with MCR, the final 3-HP titer improved by 2-fold, which is 1.6 mM. Additional expression of the gene pntAB, encoding nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase that converts NADH to NADPH, increased 3-HP production to 2.14 mM. The strain was further developed by deleting the sucAB gene, encoding α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex in tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or blocking lactate and acetate production pathways, and evaluated for the production of 3-HP. We report on the feasibility of producing 3-HP from glucose through the malonyl-CoA pathway.

Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae converts glycerol to the specialty chemical 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO), which is used for the production of polytrimethylene terepthalate (PTT). In this study, an NAD(+)-dependent gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase (PuuC) of K. pneumoniae DSM 2026, which oxidizes 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde to a platform chemical 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP), was cloned and overexpressed in K. pneumoniae DSM 2026 for the co-production of 3-HP and 1,3-PDO from glycerol. In addition, the gene dhaT, encoding NADH-dependent 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (1,3-PDOR), was deleted from the chromosome for the balanced production of 3-HP and 1,3-PDO. The recombinant K. pneumoniae ∆dhaT, expressing puuC, produced 3.6 g 3-HP and 3.0 g 1,3-PDO per liter with an average yield of 81% on glycerol carbon in shake flask culture under microaerobic conditions. When a fed-batch culture was carried out under microaerobic conditions at pH 7.0 in a 5-l bioreactor, the recombinant K. pneumoniae ∆dhaT (puuC) strain produced 16.0 g 3-HP and 16.8 g 1,3-PDO per liter with a cumulative yield of 51% on glycerol carbon in 24 h. The production of 1,3-PDO in the dhaT-deletion mutant was attributed to the expression of NAD(P)H-dependent hypothetical oxidoreductase. This study demonstrates the feasibility of obtaining two commercially valuable chemicals, 3-HP and 1,3-PDO, at a significant scale.

Abstract
Confronted with the gradual and inescapable exhaustion of the earth's fossil energy resources, the bio-based process to produce platform chemicals from renewable carbohydrates is attracting growing interest. Escherichia coli has been chosen as a workhouse for the production of many valuable chemicals due to its clear genetic background, convenient to be genetically modified and good growth properties with low nutrient requirements. Rational strain development of E. coli achieved by metabolic engineering strategies has provided new processes for efficiently biotechnological production of various high-value chemical building blocks. Compared to previous reviews, this review focuses on recent advances in metabolic engineering of the industrial model bacteria E. coli that lead to efficient recombinant biocatalysts for the production of high-value organic acids like succinic acid, lactic acid, 3-hydroxypropanoic acid and glucaric acid as well as alcohols like 1,3-propanediol, xylitol, mannitol, and glycerol with the discussion of the future research in this area. Besides, this review also discusses several platform chemicals, including fumaric acid, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, sorbitol, itaconic acid, and 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid, which have not been produced by E. coli until now.

Abstract
Previously, we constructed a glycerol oxidative pathway-deficient mutant strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae by inactivation of glycerol dehydrogenase (dhaD) to eliminate by-product synthesis during production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) from glycerol. Although by-product formation was successfully blocked in the resultant strain, the yield of 1,3-PD was not enhanced, probably because dhaD disruption resulted in insufficient regeneration of the cofactor NADH essential for the activity of 1,3-PD oxidoreductase (DhaT). To improve cofactor regeneration, in the present study we overexpressed an NAD(+)-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase in the recombinant strain. To this end, an aldehyde dehydrogenase AldHk homologous to E. coli AldH but with NAD(+)-dependent propionaldehyde dehydrogenase activity was identified in K. pneumoniae. Functional analysis revealed that the substrate specificity of AldHk embraced various aldehydes including propionaldehyde, and that NAD(+) was preferred over NADP(+) as a cofactor. Overexpression of AldHk in the glycerol oxidative pathway-deficient mutant AK/pVOTHk resulted in a 3.6-fold increase (0.57 g l(-1) to 2.07 g l(-1)) in the production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP), and a 1.1-fold enhancement (8.43 g l(-1) to 9.65 g l(-1)) of 1,3-PD synthesis, when glycerol was provided as the carbon source, compared to the levels synthesized by the control strain (AK/pVOT). Batch fermentation using AK/pVOTHk showed a significant increase (to 70%, w/w) in conversion of glycerol to the reductive metabolites, 1,3-PD and 3-HP, with no production of by-products except acetate.
