Description:: To increase the butanol titers and selectivity in Clostridium acetobutylicum we replaced the promoter of the alcohol/aldehyde dehydrogenase (aad) gene with the phosphotranbutyrylase (ptb) promoter and combined this with CoAT downregulation to minimize acetone production. This led to early production of high alcohol (butanol plus ethanol) titers and overall solvent...
