Enhanced production of 2,3-butanediol by a genetically engineered Bacillus sp. BRC1 using a hydrolysate of empty palm fruit bunches

A Bacillus species that produces 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD), termed BRC1, was newly isolated, and a 2,3-BD dehydrogenase (Bdh) from this species was identified and characterized at the molecular and biochemical level. Sequence analysis revealed that Bdh is homologous to D-2,3-BD dehydrogenases. An anal...
