Abstract
The invention provides non-naturally occurring microbial organisms having a formaldehyde fixation pathway, a formate assimilation pathway, and/or a methanol metabolic pathway in combination with a fatty alcohol, fatty aldehyde, fatty acid or isopropanol pathway, wherein the microbial organisms selectively produce a fatty alcohol, fatty aldehyde or fatty acid of a specified length or isopropanol. The microbial organisms provided advantageously enhance the production of substrates and/or pathway intermediates for the production of chain length specific fatty alcohols, fatty aldehydes, fatty acids or isopropanol. In some aspects, the microbial organisms of the invention have select gene disruptions or enzyme attenuations that increase production of fatty alcohols, fatty aldehydes or fatty acids. The invention additionally provides methods of using the above microbial organisms to produce a fatty alcohol, a fatty aldehyde, a fatty acid or isopropanol.
