| abstract |
The present invention relates to a method for producing butanol using a bacterium capable of biosynthesizing butanol from butyryl-CoA as an intermediate. More particularly, a method for producing butanol, the method comprising generating bytyryl-CoA in a bacterium which contains a gene coding for AdhE (an enzyme responsible for the conversion of butyryl-CoA to butanol) using various methods, and converting the butyryl-CoA into butanol. |
