  • Microbial production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid
    Patent number: 10066245
    Abstract: A yeast cell having a reduced level of activity of NAD dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) has at least one exogenous gene encoding NADP dependent GAPDH and/or has up-regulation of at least one endogenous gene expressing NADP dependent GAPDH, wherein combined expression of the enzymes NADP dependent GAPDH, PDC, ALD, ACS, ACC* and MCR in said host cell increases metabolic flux towards 3-HP via malonyl-CoA compared to an otherwise similar yeast cell lacking said genetic modification.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 12, 2014
    Date of Patent: September 4, 2018
    Assignee: TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF DENMARK
    Inventors: Niels Bjerg Jensen, Irina Borodina, Yun Chen, Jerome Maury, Kanchana Rueksomtawin Kildegaard, Jochen Förster, Jens Nielsen

  • Method for producing terpenes and MEP-transformed microorganisms therefore
    Patent number: 8048658
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a microorganism capable of producing a terpene of choice. The microorganism expresses a heterologous pathway for the formation of isoprene units and, preferably, a heterologous terpene synthase. In this way, high amounts of terpene can be isolated from the medium of the microorganism.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: November 1, 2011
    Assignee: Firmenich SA
    Inventors: Anthony Clark, Jérôme Maury, Mohammad Ali Asadollahi, Kasper Møller, Jens Nielsen, Michel Schalk
