- | <p align="justify">With the valuable collaboration of the team iGEM-Alberta 2008, we link the the light-oxygen dependent regulation systems with the butanol production pathway and its electron-transfer-flavoprotein alpha and betha polypeptides, this constructions were sent by Dr. Douglas Ridgway. (Reference: <a href="https://2008.igem.org/Team:The_University_of_Alberta/Butanerd" target="_blank">Butanerd</a>)</p>
| |
- | <p align="justify"><em>Clostridium</em><em> acetobutylicum</em> is an anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium with the ability to ferment starch and sugars into solvents. In the past, it has been used for industrial production of acetone and butanol, until cheap crude oil rendered petrochemical synthesis more economically feasible. Both economic and environmental aspects have caused the pendulum to swing back again. Molecular biology has allowed a detailed understanding of genes and enzymes, required for solventogenesis.(1)<br />
| |
- | Taking advantage of the metabolic versatility of <em>R. sphearoides</em> and <em>R. palustris</em> and their ability to fix Carbon dioxide, we aim to introduce the following constructions into these both bacteria so that the fixed carbon dioxide becomes into butanol.</p>
| |
- | <p align="justify">We already constructed the following circuits, ready for testing in <em>R. Palustris</em></p>

| |

| |
- | <p align="justify">We have to link these constructions into the vector pRK415, and conjugate <em>R. sphearoides</em> and <em>R. palutris</em>, to finally test our system and to produce butanol.</p>
