Abstract
The present disclosure provides recombinant microorganisms and methods for the anaerobic production of 2,4-furandimethanol from one or more carbon sources. The microorganisms and methods provide redox-balanced and ATP positive pathways for co-producing 2,4-furandimethanol with ethanol and for co-producing 2,4-furandimethanol with ethanol and acetone and/or isopropanol. The method provides recombinant microorganisms that express endogenous and/or exogenous nucleic acid molecules encoding polypeptides that catalyze the conversion of a carbon source into 2,4-furandimethanol and that couple the 2,4-furandimethanol pathway with an additional metabolic pathway. The present disclosure further provides enzymatic production of 2,4-furandicarboxylic acid.
