Zusammenfassung:The present application provides a method for making poly(3-hydroxypropionate) in a biological system comprising providing one or more substrates selected from the group consisting of 3-hydroxypropionate and 1,3-propanediol, wherein the biological system is selected from the group consisting of bacteria, yeast, fungi, and plants; wherein the biological system expresses enzymes selected from the group consisting of polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase, acyl-CoA transferase, hydroxyacyl CoA transferase, and hydroxyacyl CoA synthetase such that poly(3-hydroxypropionate) accumulates. The present application also provides a method for making a polymer comprising 5-hydroxyvalerate in a biological system comprising providing one or more substrates selected from the group consisting of 5-hydroxyvalerate and 1,5-pentanediol, wherein the biological system is selected from the group consisting of bacteria, yeast, fungi, and plants; wherein the biological system expresses enzymes selected from the group consisting of polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase, acyl-CoA transferase, hydroxyacyl CoA transferase, and hydroxyacyl CoA synthetase such that a polymer comprising 5-hydroxyvalerate accumulates.
