Abstract
Although 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) is usually considered an anaerobic fermentation product from glycerol by Klebsiella pneumoniae, microaerobic conditions proved to be more conducive to 1,3-PD production. In this study, a genome-scale metabolic model (GSMM) specific to K. pneumoniae KG2, a high 1.3-PD producer, was constructed. The iZY1242 model contains 2090 reactions, 1242 genes and 1433 metabolites. The model was not only able to accurately characterise cell growth, but also accurately simulate the fed-batch 1,3-PD fermentation process. Flux balance analyses by iZY1242 was performed to dissect the mechanism of stimulated 1,3-PD production under microaerobic conditions, and the maximum yield of 1,3-PD on glycerol was 0.83 mol/mol under optimal microaerobic conditions. Combined with experimental data, the iZY1242 model is a useful tool for establishing the best conditions for microaeration fermentation to produce 1,3-PD from glycerol in K. pneumoniae.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biogenic 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) is a high-value-added compound that can be used as a liquid fuel and a platform chemical. Bioproduction of 2,3-BDO is an environmentally friendly choice. METHOD AND RESULTS Three recombinant derivatives of the novel Klebsiella sp. isolate FSoil 024 (WT) were constructed via different strategies including deletion of lactate dehydrogenase by λ-Red homologous recombination technology, overexpression of the small-noncoding RNA RyhB and a combination of both. The 2,3-BDO productivity of the mutants increased by 61.3-79%, and WT-Δldh/ryhB displayed the highest 2,3-BDO yield of 42.36 mM after 24 h of shake-flask fermentation. Glucose was shown as the best carbon source for 2,3-BDO production by WT-Δldh/ryhB. In addition, higher oxygenation was favorable for ideal product synthesis. The maximal 2,3-BDO yield of WT and WT-Δldh/ryhB were increased by 23.3 and 52.5% respectively compared to the control group in the presence of 70% oxygen (V:V' = O2 :(O2 +N2 )). CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS According to the present study, deletion of lactate dehydrogenase, RyhB overexpression and manipulation of oxygen supply showed great impacts on cell growth, 2,3-BDO productivity and cellular metabolism of the novel isolated strain Klebsiella sp. FSoil 024. This work would also provide insights for promoting 2,3-BDO biosynthesis for industrial applications. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
A novel 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) producing strain was isolated and identified as Clostridium butyricum with respect to its morphological and physiological characteristics, as well as 16S rDNA. The results of substrates test and stress tolerance indicated that C. butyricum SCUT343-4 could produce 1,3-PDO efficiently from glycerol. The optimal fermentation conditions were determined to be 5 g/L yeast extract at 37 °C and pH 6.5. To fully evaluate its 1,3-PDO production capacity, different cultivation strategies have been implemented. The highest 1,3-PDO concentration obtained for batch and fed-batch fermentation were 51.64 and 61.30 g/L, respectively. Immobilized cell fermentation in fibrous-bed bioreactor was also performed, and the concentration of 1,3-PDO further increased to 86 g/L with a yield of 0.52 g/g. In addition, the 1,3-PDO productivity reached 4.20 g/L h, which is the highest level reported for C. butyricum, demonstrating the potential of C. butyricum SCUT343-4 for 1,3-PDO production from glycerol.

Abstract
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PDO) is an important synthetic monomer for the production of polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT). Here, we engineered Klebsiella pneumoniae by a multi-strategy to improve 1,3-PDO production and reduce by-products synthesis. First, the 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) synthesis pathway was blocked by deleting the budB gene, resulting in a 74% decrease of 2,3-BDO titer. The synthesis of lactate was decreased by 79% via deleting the ldhA gene, leading to a 10% increase of 1,3-PDO titer. Further, reducing ethanol synthesis by deleting the aldA gene led to a 64% decrease of ethanol titer, and the 1,3-PDO titer and yield on glycerol increased by 12 and 10%, respectively. Strengthening the TCA cycle by overexpressing the mdh gene improved 1,3-PDO synthesis effectively. Under 5-L fed-batch fermentation conditions, compared to wild type strain, the production of 2,3-BDO, lactate and ethanol in the mutant strain decreased by 73, 65 and 50%, respectively. Finally, the production of 1,3-PDO was 73.5 g/L with a molar yield of 0.67 mol/mol glycerol, improved 16% and 20%, respectively. This work provides a combined strategy for improving 1,3-PDO production by strengthening the TCA cycle to relieve metabolic stress by deleting genes of by-products synthesis, which was also beneficial for the extraction and separation of downstream products.

Abstract
To determine the role of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) in Klebsiella pneumoniae, the growth and metabolism of PDHC-deficient mutant in glycerol-based medium were analyzed and compared with those of other strains. Under aerobic conditions, the PDHC activity was fourfold higher than that of pyruvate formate lyase (PFL), and blocking of PDHC caused severe growth defect and pyruvate accumulation, indicating that the carbon flux through pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A mainly depended on PDHC. Under anaerobic conditions, although the PDHC activity was only 50% of that of PFL, blocking of PDHC resulted in more growth defect than blocking of PFL. Subsequently, combined with the requirement of CO2 and intracellular redox status, it was presumed that the critical role of PDHC was to provide NADH for the anaerobic growth of K. pneumoniae. This presumption was confirmed in the PDHC-deficient mutant by further blocking one of the formate dehydrogenases, FdnGHI. Besides, based on our data, it can also be suggested that an improvement in the carbon flux in the PFL-deficient mutant could be an effective strategy to construct highyielding 1,3-propanediol-producing K. pneumoniae strain.

Abstract
Anaerobic growth defect of pyruvate formate lyase (PFL)-deficient Klebsiella pneumoniae limits its industrial application, and the reason for this growth defect was analyzed in this study. The obtained evidences, combined with normal intracellular redox status and no further inhibition by adhE deletion, strongly suggested that growth defect in PFL-deficient K. pneumoniae was probably caused by lack of carbon flux from pyruvate to acetyl-CoA (AcCoA). Correspondingly, the anaerobic growth of PFL-deficient K. pneumoniae was promoted by deletion of pdhR, a negative transcriptional regulator gene for AcCoA generation. Through the regulation of pdhR deletion, the PFL-deficient K. pneumoniae exhibited highly efficient 1,3-propanediol production. Besides, in a 2-L fed-batch fermentation process, the cell growth of PFL-deficient K. pneumoniae strain almost recovered, when compared with that of the normal strain, and the 1,3-propanediol yield increased by 14%, while the byproducts acetate and 2,3-butanediol contents decreased by 29% and 24%, respectively.

Abstract
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PDO) is an important compound that is mainly used in industry for polymer production. Fermentation of 1,3-PDO from glycerol by Klebsiella pneumoniae is accompanied by formation of 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) as one of the main byproduct. The first step in the formation of 2,3-BDO from pyruvate is catalyzed by acetolactate synthase (ALS), an enzyme that competes with 1,3-PDO oxidoreductase for the cofactor NADH. This study aimed to analyze the impact of engineering the 2,3-BDO formation pathway via inactivation of ALS on 1,3-PDO fermentation by K. pneumoniae HSL4. An ALS mutant was generated using Red recombinase assisted gene replacement. The ALS specific activities of K. pneumoniae ΔALS were notably lower than that of the wild-type strain. Fed-batch fermentation of the mutant strain resulted in a 1,3-PDO concentration, productivity and conversion of 72.04 g L–1, 2.25 g L–1 h–1, and 0.41 g g–1, increase by 4.71%, 4.65% and 1.99% compared with the parent strain. Moreover, inactivation of ALS decreased meso-2,3-BDO formation to trace amounts, significantly increased 2S,3S-BDO and lactate production, and a pronounced redistribution of intracellular metabolic flux was apparent.

Abstract
NADH:quinone oxidoreductases (NQOs) act as the electron entry sites in bacterial respiration and oxidize intracellular NADH that is essential for the synthesis of numerous molecules. Klebsiella pneumoniae contains three NQOs (NDH-1, NDH-2, and NQR). The effects of inactivating these NQOs, separately and together, on cell metabolism were investigated under different culture conditions. Defective growth was evident in NDH-1-NDH-2 double and NDH-1-NDH-2-NQR triple deficient mutants, which was probably due to damage to the respiratory chain. The results also showed that K. pneumoniae can flexibly use NQOs to maintain normal growth in single NQO-deficient mutants. And more interestingly, under aerobic conditions, inactivating NDH-1 resulted in a high intracellular NADH:NAD+ ratio, which was proven to be beneficial for 2,3-butanediol production. Compared with the parent strain, 2,3-butanediol production by the NDH-1-deficient mutant was increased by 46% and 62% in glycerol- and glucose-based media, respectively. Thus, our findings provide a practical strategy for metabolic engineering of respiratory chains to promote the biosynthesis of 2,3-butanediol in K. pneumoniae.

Abstract
Background d-Lactate is a valued chemical which can be produced by some bacteria including Klebsiella pneumoniae. However, only a few studies have focused on K. pneumoniae for d-lactate production with a significant amount of by-products, which complicated the purification process and decreased the yield of d-lactate. Results Based on the redirection of carbon towards by-product formation, the effects of single-gene and multiple-gene deletions in K. pneumoniae on d-lactate production from glucose via acetolactate synthase (budB), acetate kinase (ackA), and alcohol dehydrogenase (adhE) were tested. Klebsiella pneumoniae mutants had different production behaviours. The accumulation of the main by-products was decreased in the mutants. The triple mutant strain had the most powerful ability to produce optically pure d-lactate from glucose, and was tested with xylose and arabinose as carbon sources. Fed-batch fermentation was also carried out under various aeration rates, and the strain accumulated 125.1 g/L d-lactate with a yield of 0.91 g/g glucose at 2.5 vvm. Conclusions Knocking out by-product synthesis genes had a remarkable influence on the production and yield of d-lactate. This study demonstrated, for the first time, that K. pneumoniae has great potential to convert monosaccharides into d-lactate. The results provide new insights for industrial production of d-lactate by K. pneumoniae.

Abstract
Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae naturally produces relatively large amounts of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) and 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) along with various byproducts using glycerol as a carbon source. The ldhA and mdh genes in K. pneumoniae were deleted based on its in silico gene knockout simulation with the criteria of maximizing 1,3-PD and 2,3-BD production and minimizing byproducts formation and cell growth retardation. In addition, the agitation speed, which is known to strongly affect 1,3-PD and 2,3-BD production in Klebsiella strains, was optimized. The K. pneumoniae ΔldhA Δmdh strain produced 125 g/L of diols (1,3-PD and 2,3-BD) with a productivity of 2.0 g/L/h in the lab-scale (5-L bioreactor) fed-batch fermentation using high-quality guaranteed reagent grade glycerol. To evaluate the industrial capacity of the constructed K. pneumoniae ΔldhA Δmdh strain, a pilot-scale (5000-L bioreactor) fed-batch fermentation was carried out using crude glycerol obtained from the industrial biodiesel plant. The pilot-scale fed-batch fermentation of the K. pneumoniae ΔldhA Δmdh strain produced 114 g/L of diols (70 g/L of 1,3-PD and 44 g/L of 2,3-BD), with a yield of 0.60 g diols per gram glycerol and a productivity of 2.2 g/L/h of diols, which should be suitable for the industrial co-production of 1,3-PD and 2,3-BD.

Abstract
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PD) is a versatile bulk chemical and widely used as a monomer to synthesis polymers, such as polyesters, polyethers and polyurethanes. 1,3-PD can be produced by microbial fermentation with the advantages of the environmental protection and sustainable development. Low substrate tolerance and wide by-product profile limit microbial production of 1,3-PD by Klebsiella pneumonia on industrial scale. In this study, microbial consortia were investigated to overcome some disadvantages of pure fermentation by single strain. Microbial consortium named DL38 from marine sludge gave the best performance. Its bacterial community composition was analyzed by 16S rRNA gene amplicon high-throughput sequencing and showed that Enterobacteriaceae was the most abundant family. Compared with three K. pneumonia strains isolated from DL38, the microbial consortium could grow well at an initial glycerol concentration of 200 g/L to produce 81.40 g/L of 1,3-PD with a yield of 0.63 mol/mol. This initial glycerol concentration is twice the highest concentration by single isolated strain and more than the critical value (188 g/L) extrapolated from the fermentation kinetics for K. pneumonia. On the other hand, a small amount of by-products were produced in batch fermentation of microbial consortium DL38, especially no 2,3-butanediol detected. The mixed culture of strain W3, Y5 and Y1 improved the tolerance to glycerol and changed the metabolite profile of single strain W3. The batch fermentation with the natural proportion (W3: Y5: Y1 = 208: 82: 17) was superior to that with other proportions and single strain. This study showed that microbial consortium DL38 possessed excellent substrate tolerance, narrow by-product profile and attractive potential for industrial production of 1,3-PD.

Abstract
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PD) is one of the most important chemicals widely used as monomers for synthesis of some commercially valuable products, including cosmetics, foods, lubricants and medicines. Although 1,3-PD can be synthesized both chemically and biosynthetically, the latter offers more merits over chemical approach as it is economically viable, environmentally friendly and easy to carry out. The biosynthesis of 1,3-PD can be done by transforming glycerol or other similar substrates using some bacteria, such as Clostridium butyricum and Klebsiella pneumoniae. However, these natural microorganisms pose some bottlenecks like low productivity and metabolite inhibition. To overcome these problems, recent research efforts have been focused more on the development of new strains by modifying the genome through different techniques, such as mutagenesis and genetic engineering. Genetically engineered strains obtained by various strategies cannot only gain higher yield than wild types, but also overcome some of the barriers in production by the latter. This review paper presents an overview on the recent advances in the technological approaches to develop genetically engineered microorganisms for efficient biosynthesis of 1,3-PD.

The influence of budA deletion on glucose metabolism related in 2,3-butanediol production by Klebsiella pneumoniae. Enzyme Microb Technol 2015; 73-74:1-8.

Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), which is a promising microorganism for industrial bulk production of 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO), naturally converts glucose to 2,3-BDO. The 2,3-BDO biosynthesis from glucose is composed of three steps; α-acetolactate biosynthesis by α-acetolactate synthase (budB); acetoin biosynthesis by α-acetolactate decarboxylase (budA); and 2,3-BDO biosynthesis by acetoin reductase (budC). In an effort to understand the influence of blocked 2,3-BDO pathway on K. pneumoniae glucose metabolism by budA deletion, we constructed K. pneumoniaeΔwabGΔbudA (SGSB106). Carbon flux distribution analysis, transcriptome analysis and extracellular amino acid concentration analysis were carried out to understand the effects of the budA deletion, and K. pneumoniaeΔwabG (SGSB100) was used as a control strain. Approximately 50.3% decrease in CO2 emission; and approximately 3.8-fold increase in amino acid production was observed in SGSB106. In addition to, among the amino acids, valine production significantly increased, suggesting that the branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis (BACC) in SGSB106 was activated by deletion of budA. Furthermore, whole genome transcriptome analysis of SGSB106 and SGSB100, correlates with the results from carbon distribution and amino acids concentration analyses.
