Biosynthesis of Poly(3HB-3HV) and Poly(3HB-4HB) Copolymers in Recombinant Ralstonia eutropha Enforced zwf

Abstract
NADPH has been known as a regulating factor the biosynthesis of polyhydroxyalkanote(PHA), and the flux of NADPH for PHA biosynthesis could be enforced by the amplification of zwf gene encoding glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The recombinant plasmid pCZWF harboring PHA synthase, phbC from R. eutropha and zwf from E. coli were constructed, and were transformed to R. eutropha by electroporation. The biosynthesis of P(3HB-3HV) copolymer were carried out in transformant R. eutropha through the two-stage cultivation method using valerate as a precursor. The biosynthesis rate and PHA content of transformant R. eutropha harboring pCZWF were increased compared with transformant R. eutropha harboring only phbC. Especially, the molar fraction of 3HV was increased from 68% to 74% due to amplification of zwf gene. And the biosynthesis P(3HB-3HV) and P(3HB-4HB) carried out using propionate and
