Jiang, Youming published the artcileMicrobial production of L-malate from renewable non-food feedstocks, COA of Formula: C4H6O5, the main research area is microbial fermentation L malate renewable feedstock review.
L-malate is an intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid cycle which is naturally occurred in various microorganisms, and it has been widely applied in polymer, beverage and food, textile, agricultural and pharmaceutical industries. Driven by the pursuit of a sustainable economy, microbial production of L-malate has received much attention in last decades. In this review, we focused on the utilization of wastes and/or byproducts as feedstocks for the microbial production of L-malate. Firstly, we presented the recent developments on the natural or engineered metabolic pathways that dedicated to the biosynthesis of L-malate, and also provided comprehensive discussions on developing high-efficient producers. Then, the recent achievements in microbial production of L-malate from various carbon sources were concluded and discussed. Furthermore, some abundant non-food feedstocks for microbial production of other chems. were reviewed, as they might be potential candidate feedstock for L-malate production in future. Finally, we outlined the major challenges and proposed further improvements for the production of L-malate.
