Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention provides for methods for the production of mevalonate, isoprene, isoprenoid precursor molecules, and/or isoprenoids in cells via the heterologous expression of phosphoketolase enzymes.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. Recombinant microbial cells capable of producing isoprene from a carbon source, wherein the cells comprise one or more heterologous nucleic acids encoding a polypeptide having phosphoketolase activity and (i) one or more nucleic acids encoding one or more polypeptides of the complete MVA pathway and (ii) a heterologous nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having isoprene synthase activity, wherein culturing of said recombinant cells in a suitable media provide…
