  • Increased bacterial CoA and acetyl-CoA pools
    Patent number: 7901924
    Abstract: Methods of increasing the cellular pool of A-CoA and thus driving the metabolic pathways in the direction of A-CoA containing metabolites by overexpressing rate limiting enzymes in A-CoA synthesis. Methods of increasing intracellular levels of CoA and A-CoA through genetic engineering of bacterial strains in conjunction with supplementation with precursor molecules.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 19, 2008
    Date of Patent: March 8, 2011
    Assignee: Rice University
    Inventors: Ka-Yiu San, George Nelson Bennett, Ravishankar V. Vadali
