摘要

Synthetic biology has been utilized to metabolically engineer a range of microbial hosts including yeast and photoautotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria, in order to produce many types of biofuels, including long-chain alcohols, fatty acids, alka(e)nes, and isoprenoids. The general method employed in the studies cited herein to develop microbial biofuels is to characterize the enzymes, regulation, and thermodynamics of relevant native metabolic pathways and then to adjust or redesign those pathways around catalytic capabilities, cofactor pools, and other driving forces toward production of the desired compound. In some cases, overlap of production of several types of biofuels is possible from a single strategy with minor adjustments.145,155 The majority of maximal titers have been produced from engineered E. coli (Table 1), likely due to the thoroughly studied metabolism, genetic tools, and fast growth rate of the bacterium. Yields for microbial production of some advanced biofuels have achieved the levels of industrial relevance, while most are not yet encouraging for industrial scale production (Table 1). However, the proof-of-concept studies and incremental improvements in production titers indicate great possibilities. Advances in technology allowing for microbial genetic manipulation have increased exponentially over the past decade, along with understanding of enzymatic mechanisms, the driving forces behind a catalytic reaction, and especially the energetic balance required for efficient growth and production. The collective application of that information has presented a great opportunity for biologically synthesizing a range of compounds for use as chemical feedstocks74,235-237 and a wide array of biofuels. Microbes, especially bacteria, provide an ideal metabolic "factory" due to their incredible malleability and resiliency and their toolbox of evolutionarily honed central and peripheral metabolic pathways. Although more fastidious than other bacteria, photosynthetic cyanobacteria in particular offer an opportunity to generate valuable and useful products from some of the simplest and most abundant starting molecules usable by a living organism, at the same time decreasing the amount of a detrimental compound (CO2). Some impressive accomplishments in microbial synthetic biology to generate biofuels have already been achieved. However, recent studies of driving forces, activity of key enzymes,238 and energetic balance88 suggest that the full capacity for microbial biofuel production is yet to be realized.
