Bioproduction of 3-Hydroxypropionic Acid by Enhancing the Precursor Supply with a Hybrid Pathway and Cofactor Regeneration

3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is one of the 12 valuable platform chemicals with versatile applications in the chemical, food, and cosmetic industries. However, the biosynthesis of 3-HP faces challenges due to the lack of robust chassis and the high costs associated with the fermentation process. To address these challenges, we made efforts to augment the robustness of 3-HP-producing chassis by exploiting metabolic regulation, controlling carbon flux, balancing cofactor generation, and optimizing fermentation conditions. First, the malonyl-CoA (MCA) pathway was recruited and rebalanced in
