Abstract
Acetate is a potent microbial inhibitor which can affect the performance of yeast in ethanolic fermentation. The present disclosure provides a recombinant microbial host cell having (i) a first genetic modification for increasing the activity of one or more proteins that function in a first metabolic pathway to convert acetate into an alcohol in the microbial host cell; (ii) a second genetic modification for increasing the activity of one or more proteins that function in a second metabolic pathway to import glycerol in the recombinant microbial host cell (iii) a third genetic modification for increasing the activity of one or more proteins that function in a third metabolic pathway to convert a C5 carbohydrate into ethanol in the microbial host cell. The recombinant microbial host cell comprises and natively expresses native proteins that function in a fourth native metabolic pathway to produce glycerol in the microbial host cell.
