Abstract
The present invention provides an engineered cyanobacterium, comprising at least one plasmid selected from three novel pathways to produce acetate, which can convert atmospheric carbon dioxide as a raw material into acetate. The present invention also constructs the expression plasmid for three different transporters specific to acetate to be expressed in cyanobacteria, which comprises putative ABC transporter (AatA), succinate/acetate: proton symporter (SatP) and acetate/glycolate: cation symporter (ActP). Therefore, the engineered cyanobacteria of the present invention can produce 0.58 mg/L to 3.54 mg/L of acetate per hour.
