Provided herein are genetically engineered microbes that include at least a portion of a carbon fixation pathway, and in one embodiment, use molecular hydrogen to drive carbon dioxide fixation. In one embodiment, the genetically engineered microbe is modified to convert acetyl CoA, molecular hydrogen, and carbon dioxide to 3-hydroxypropionate, 4-hydroxybutyrate, acetyl CoA, or the combination thereof at levels greater than a control microbe. Other products may also be produced. Also provided herein are cell free compositions that convert acetyl CoA, molecular hydrogen, and carbon dioxide to 3-hydroxypropionate, 4-hydroxybutyrate, acetyl CoA, or the combination thereof. Also provided herein are methods of using the genetically engineered microbes and the cell free compositions. |

The present disclosure relates to methods for more efficiently recycling reduced electron carriers in a hydrogen-oxidizing microorganism with an operable Calvin-Benson cycle; synthetic carbon fixation pathways that recycle reduced electron carriers more efficiently than the Calvin-Benson cycle, such as methods for enzymatically converting carbon dioxide to formate and assimilating the resulting formate into central carbon metabolism; methods for producing biochemical products; and recombinant hosts utilizing one or more synthetic carbon fixation pathways. |

A method of producing acrylate in vivo in a genetically modified bacteria cell is provided including providing a cell with a first one or more nucleic acids encoding a pathway resulting in the production of 3-hydroxypropionate, providing the cell with a second one or more nucleic acids encoding a truncated pcs enzyme lacking a domain converting acrylyl-CoA to propionyl-CoA, providing the cell with a third one or more nucleic acids encoding acrylyl-CoA hydrolase, wherein the cell expresses the first, second and third one or more nucleic acids and produces acrylate. |
