Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) is also a component of bio-based polymers such as nylons or polyesters.
Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) esters are precursors for the known petrochemical products such as 1,4-butanediol, tetrahydrofuran, c-butyrolactone, and various pyrrolidinone derivatives.
Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) production by Y. lipolytica was reported for the first time when it was grown on ethanol under aerobic conditions and nitrogen limitation.
Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) amount was 63.4 g/L as the major product of batch fermentation in this process.
However, the disadvantage was low yield of Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) on ethanol (58 %), and a high cost of production.
Kamzolova et al. developed a novel process for the production of Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid).
It includes the synthesis of a-ketoglutaric acid by a thiamine-auxotrophic strain Y. lipolytica VKMY-2412 from n-alkanes, and subsequent oxidation of the acid by hydrogen peroxide to Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid).
The concentration of Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) and its yield were found to be 38.8 g/L and 82.45 % of n-alkane consumed, respectively.
Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) production was also studied by genetically modified strains using glucose and glycerol as substrates.
Yuzbashev et al. constructed temperaturesensitive mutant strains with mutations in the Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) dehydrogenase encoding gene SDH1 by in vitro mutagenesis-based approach.
Then, the mutants were used to optimize the composition of the media for selection of transformants with the deletion in the SDH2 gene.
The defects of each Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) dehydrogenase subunit prevented the growth on glucose, but the mutant strains grew on glycerol and produced succinate in the presence of the buffering agent CaCO3.
Subsequent selection of the strain with deleted SDH2 gene for increased viability was allowed to obtain a strain that is capable to accumulate Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) at the level of more than 450 g/L with buffering and more than 17 g/L without buffering.
Therefore, a reduced Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) dehydrogenase activity can lead to an increased succinate production.
Y. lipolytica is able to produce Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) at low pH values.
High amounts of Succinic Acid (1,4-Butanedioic acid) can be achieved by genetic engineering
