This document describes biochemical pathways for producing a difunctional product having an odd number of carbon atoms in vitro or in a recombinant host, or salts or derivatives thereof, by forming two terminal functional groups selected from carboxyl, amine, formyl, and hydroxyl groups in an aliphatic carbon chain backbone having an odd number of carbon atoms synthesized from (i) acetyl-CoA and propanedioyl-CoA via one or more cycles of methyl ester shielded carbon chain elongation or (ii) propanedioyl-[acp] via one or more cycles of methyl ester shielded carbon chain elongation. The biochemical pathways and metabolic engineering and cultivation strategies described herein rely on enzymes or homologs accepting methyl ester shielded aliphatic carbon chain backbones and maintaining the methyl ester shield for at least one further enzymatic step following one or more cycles of methyl ester shielded carbon chain elongation.
本文件描述了在体外或重组宿主中生产具有奇数个碳原子的双官能团产物或其盐或衍生物的生化途径,其方法是在具有奇数个碳原子的脂肪族碳链骨架上形成两个末端官能团,这两个末端官能团选自羧基、胺、甲酰基和羟基、(i) 乙酰-CoA 和丙二酰-CoA 通过一次或多次循环的甲酯屏蔽碳链伸长或 (ii) 丙二酰-[acp]通过一次或多次循环的甲酯屏蔽碳链伸长合成的具有奇数个碳原子的脂肪族碳链骨架中的两个末端官能团。本文所述的生化途径和代谢工程及培养策略依赖于酶或同源物接受甲酯屏蔽的脂肪族碳链骨架,并在一个或多个甲酯屏蔽碳链伸长循环后维持甲酯屏蔽至少一个进一步的酶步骤。
