Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for the production of malonic acid or a salt thereof in recombinant host cells.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods comprising polysuccinimides, polyaspartic acid and salts thereof, wherein the polysuccinimides, polyaspartic acid and salts thereof are of renewable or non-petrochemical origin.

Abstract: Methods and materials related to producing glyceric acid and downstream products are disclosed. Specifically, isolated nucleic acids. polypeptides, host cells, methods and materials for producing glycolic acid by direct fermentation from sugars are disclosed.

Abstract: Provided herein is a process of ion exchange comprising malonic acid or a salt thereof and a cation or an anion cation exchange resin. The ion exchange is accomplished, e.g., and without limitation by continuous ion exchange. A valve and resin bed configuration is useful in this regard. The malonic acid separated by ion exchange is esterified, e.g., by Fisher esterification by using an acid and an alcohol.

Abstract: Methods for the preparation of bio-based malonic acid and diester derivatives of malonic acid are provided. For example, a dialkyl malonate may be prepared by the steps of (i) separating calcium malonate crystals from a fermentation broth; (ii) obtaining dissolved malonic acid; (iii) crystallizing the dissolved malonic acid; and (iv) performing esterification to obtain the dialkyl malonate. The disclosed methods produce diester derivatives of malonic acid with fewer impurities, which is useful for many industrial processes. The diester derivatives of malonic acid can be purified from existing sources of malonic acid, or from malonic acid made from a renewable carbon source.

Abstract: Methods and materials related to producing D-lactic acid are disclosed. Specifically, isolated synthetic or natural nucleic acids, synthetic or natural polypeptides, host cells, and methods and materials for producing D-lactic acid by direct fermentation from carbon sources are disclosed, along with methods of preparing D-lactic acid polymers.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of bio-based malonic acid and crystalline calcium malonate is provided. The calcium malonate is highly pure and provides a source of malonic acid made from a renewable carbon source rather than existing processes which rely on the use of petroleum-based products. The calcium malonate provides an improved source of malonic acid, which is important to many industrial processes.

Abstract: Provided herein are recombinant fungal or bacterial cells comprising a heterologous L-lactate dehydrogenase, and processes of preparing L-lactic acid employing such cells.
