The pyruvate decarboxylase activity of IpdC is a limitation for isobutanol production by Klebsiella pneumoniae
Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae contains an endogenous isobutanol synthesis pathway. The ipdC gene annotated as an indole-3-pyruvate decarboxylase (Kp-IpdC), was identified to catalyze the formation of isobutyraldehyde from 2-ketoisovalerate. Results: Compared with 2-ketoisovalerate decarboxylase...
