Definitions

  • 1,3-Butadiene (hereinafter butadiene) is an important monomer for the production of synthetic rubbers including styrene-butadiene-rubber (SBR), polybutadiene (PB), styrene-butadiene latex (SBL), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resins (ABS), nitrile rubber, and adiponitrile, which is used in the manufacture of Nylon-66 (White, Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2007, 166, 10-14).
  • SBR styrene-butadiene-rubber
  • PB polybutadiene
  • SBL styrene-butadiene latex
  • ABS acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resins
  • nitrile rubber nitrile rubber
  • adiponitrile adiponitrile
  • Butadiene is typically produced as a co-product from the steam cracking process, distilled to a crude butadiene stream, and purified via extractive distillation (White, Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2007, 166, 10-14).
  • On-purpose butadiene has been prepared among other methods by dehydrogenation of n-butane and n-butene (Houdry process); and oxidative dehydrogenation of n-butene (Oxo-D or O-X-D process) (White, Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2007, 166, 10-14).
  • the mevalonate pathway incorporates a decarboxylase enzyme, mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase (hereafter MDD), that generates the first vinyl-group in the precursors leading to isoprene (Kuzuyama, Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem., 2002, 66(8), 1619-1627).
  • MDD mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase
  • Isoprene synthase (EC 4.2.3.27) may thus be earmarked as a candidate enzyme in the synthesis of butadiene from non-native substrates.
  • the 3-methyl group associated with the native substrate dimethylvinyl-PP plays an important role in stabilizing the carbo-cation that has been postulated as a transient intermediate (Silver & Fall, J. Biol. Chem., 1995, 270(22), 13010 - 13016; Kuzma et al, Current Microbiology, 1995, 30, 97 - 103).
  • microorganisms can generate vinyl groups in metabolites typically via dehydratase, ammonia lyase, desaturase, or decarboxylase activity.
  • these enzyme activities rarely catalyse the formation of terminal vinyl groups.
  • Dehydratases and ammonia lyases typically accept fatty acid analogues that have activated hydrogen atoms or aromatic compounds, where the aromatic ring serves as an electron withdrawing group.
  • Desaturases predominate in fatty acid synthesis, generating unsaturated bonds at fixed non-terminal positions along long chain fatty acids.
  • decarboxylases acting on the terminal carboxyl group typically leave the associated alpha functional group at the terminal position after catalysis. Therefore, the associated enzymatic activity of these enzymes teaches against their use for the generation of terminal vinyl groups in short or medium chain carbon metabolites leading to the synthesis of butadiene.
  • the first vinyl group leading to the synthesis of butadiene is enzymatically formed in 4-oxalocrotonate, 2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde, or 2-hydroxy-6-oxonona-2,4-diene-l,9-dioate to produce 2-oxopent-4- enoate. See, FIG. 2.
  • the first vinyl group leading to the synthesis of butadiene is enzymatically formed in propanoyl-CoA, lactoyl-CoA, or 3- hydroxypropionyl-CoA to produce propenoyl-CoA. See, FIG. 3.

  • Butenols include, for example, 1-buten-l-ol, 2-buten-l-ol and 3-buten-2-ol (see FIG. 1).
  • this document provides enzymes that convert butenols into butadiene.
  • This conversion can be performed by a single enzyme, or may be performed by two or more enzymes, acting sequentially (that is to say, for example, a first enzyme acts on a four carbon molecule to produce a first butenol, and that first butenol then is acted upon by a second enzyme to produce butadiene) (see, e.g., FIG. 1, reaction I).
