Abstract

See full text

A process for producing medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoic acids in a liquid medium, the process comprising: (i) intermixing a liquid culture medium and a microbial inoculum comprising a pure culture of a Pseudomonas putida strain having a portion of a phaC1 gene deleted and/or a portion of a phaC2 gene deleted and/or a portion of a phaZ gene deleted, (ii) culturing the mixture for a period of time to allow for microbial cell growth to occur in the liquid culture medium thereby producing a spent liquid medium and a plurality of microbial cells wherein medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoic acids are synthesized, (iii) separating the medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoic acids from the plurality of microbial cells and the spent liquid medium; and (iv) recovering the separated medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoic acids. A pure culture comprising transgenic microbial cells wherein a portion of a phaC1 gene and/or a phaC2 gene and/or a phaZ gene has been deleted.
