Provided herein are metabolically-modified microorganisms useful for producing 1,4-butanediol.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 1. A recombinant prokaryotic microorganism metabolically engineered from a parental prokaryotic microorganism to produce 1,4-butanediol, said recombinant prokaryotic microorganism comprising genes encoding the following: a. a xylonate dehydrogenase that catalyzes the conversion of xylose to xylonic acid, wherein said xylonate dehydrogenase comprises an amino acid sequenc…
