Abstract: Provided herein are processes, such as commercially viable processes, of producing alkyl resorcinols, such as olivetol and olivetolic acid, and analogs of each thereof. Certain of these processes utilize a recombinant, heterologous host microorganism. Certain of the heterologous microorganisms include a Cannabis sativa olivetol synthase (which is a tetraketide synthase, csOLS). Certain of the heterologous microorganisms include a Cannabis sativa olivetolic acid cyclase (csOAC). Certain of the heterologous microorganisms include a Cannabis sativa acyl activating enzyme (csAAE), such as, without limitation, csAAE1. In certain of these processes, glucose is fermented. In certain of these processes, the fermentation further comprises a carboxylic acid, RCO2H where R is defined as herein, or a salt thereof. Certain of these processes provide olivetol and olivetolic acid in a combined amount of at least 3 g/liter.

Abstract: The present invention relates to bacterial cells genetically modified to improve their tolerance to certain commodity chemicals, such as diacids, and to methods of preparing and using such bacterial cells for production of diacids and other compounds.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dual cassette reporter system capable of assessing target gene translation and target gene product folding. The present invention further relates to vectors and host cells comprising the dual cassette reporter system. In addition the invention relates to the use of the dual cassette reporter system for assessing target gene translation and target gene product folding.

Abstract: The present invention relates to bacterial cells genetically modified to improve their tolerance to certain commodity chemicals, such as diols and other polyols, and to methods of preparing and using such bacterial cells for production of polyols and other compounds.
