    Abstract Background: 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) is widely used in the cosmetic, food, and drug industries with a worldwide consumption of over 1.5 million metric tons per year. Although efforts have been made to engineer microbial hosts such as Corynebacterium glutamicum to produce 1,2-PDO from renewable resources, the performance of such strains is still improvable to be competitive with existing petrochemical production routes.
    Results: In this study, we enabled 1,2-PDO production in the genome-reduced strain C. glutamicum PC2 by introducing previously described modifications. The resulting strain showed reduced product formation but secreted 50 ± 1 mM D-lactate as byproduct. C. glutamicum PC2 lacks the D-lactate dehydrogenase which pointed to a yet unknown pathway relevant for 1,2-PDO production. Further analysis indicated that in C. glutamicum methylglyoxal, the precursor for 1,2-PDO synthesis, is detoxified with the antioxidant native mycothiol (MSH) by a glyoxalase-like system to lactoylmycothiol and converted to D-lactate which is rerouted into the central carbon metabolism at the level of pyruvate. Metabolomics of cell extracts of the empty vector-carrying wildtype, a 1,2-PDO producer and its derivative with inactive D-lactate dehydrogenase identified major mass peaks characteristic for lactoylmycothiol and its precursors MSH and glucosaminyl-myo-inositol, whereas the respective mass peaks were absent in a production strain with inactivated MSH synthesis. Deletion of mshA, encoding MSH synthase, in the 1,2-PDO producing strain C. glutamicum ΔhdpAΔldh(pEKEx3-mgsA-yqhD-gldA) improved the product yield by 56% to 0.53 ± 0.01 mM
    Conclusions: Genome reduced-strains are a useful basis to unravel metabolic constraints for strain engineering and disclosed in this study the pathway to detoxify methylglyoxal which represents a precursor for 1,2-PDO production. Subsequent inactivation of the competing pathway significantly improved the 1,2-PDO yield.

    Abstract Background: Production of the versatile bulk chemical 1,2-propanediol and the potential biofuel 1-propanol is still dependent on petroleum, but some approaches to establish bio-based production from renewable feed stocks and to avoid toxic intermediates have been described. The biotechnological workhorse Corynebacterium glutamicum has also been shown to be able to overproduce 1,2-propanediol by metabolic engineering. Additionally, C. glutamicum has previously been engineered for production of the biofuels ethanol and isobutanol but not for 1-propanol.
    Results: In this study, the improved production of 1,2-propanediol by C. glutamicum is presented. The product yield of a C. glutamicum strain expressing the heterologous genes gldA and mgsA from Escherichia coli that encode methylglyoxal synthase gene and glycerol dehydrogenase, respectively, was improved by additional expression of alcohol dehydrogenase gene yqhD from E. coli leading to a yield of 0.131 mol/mol glucose. Deletion of the endogenous genes hdpA and ldh encoding dihydroxyacetone phosphate phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase, respectively, prevented formation of glycerol and lactate as by-products and improved the yield to 0.343 mol/mol glucose. To construct a 1-propanol producer, the operon ppdABC from Klebsiella oxytoca encoding diol dehydratase was expressed in the improved 1,2-propanediol producing strain ending up with 12 mM 1-propanol and up to 60 mM unconverted 1,2-propanediol. Thus, B12-dependent diol dehydratase activity may be limiting 1-propanol production.
    Conclusions: Production of 1,2-propanediol by C. glutamicum was improved by metabolic engineering targeting endogenous enzymes. Furthermore, to the best of our knowledge, production of 1-propanol by recombinant C. glutamicum was demonstrated for the first time.

    Abstract Background: Fatty acid-derived products such as fatty alcohols (FAL) find growing application in cosmetic products, lubricants, or biofuels. So far, FAL are primarily produced petrochemically or through chemical conversion of bio-based feedstock. Besides the well-known negative environmental impact of using fossil resources, utilization of bio-based first-generation feedstock such as palm oil is known to contribute to the loss of habitat and biodiversity. Thus, the microbial production of industrially relevant chemicals such as FAL from second-generation feedstock is desirable.
    Results: To engineer Corynebacterium glutamicum for FAL production, we deregulated fatty acid biosynthesis by deleting the transcriptional regulator gene fasR, overexpressing a fatty acyl-CoA reductase (FAR) gene of Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus VT8 and attenuating the native thioesterase expression by exchange of the ATG to a weaker TTG start codon. C. glutamicum ∆fasR cg2692
    Conclusion: The combination of targeted metabolic engineering and ALE enabled efficient FAL production in C. glutamicum from wheat straw hydrolysate for the first time. Therefore, this study provides useful metabolic engineering principles to tailor this bacterium for other products from this second-generation feedstock.

    Abstract Clouds play a potentially important role in Arctic climate change, but are poorly represented in current atmospheric models across scales. To improve the representation of Arctic clouds in models, it is necessary to compare models to observations to consequently reduce this uncertainty. This study compares aircraft observations from the Arctic Cloud Observations Using Airborne Measurements during Polar Day (ACLOUD) campaign in May/June 2017 around Svalbard, Norway – to simulations using the ICON (ICOsahedral Non-hydrostatic) model in its numerical weather prediction (NWP) set-up at 1.2 km resolution. By comparing measurements of solar and terrestrial irradiances during ACLOUD flights to the respective properties in ICON, we showed that the model systematically overestimates the transmissivity of the mostly liquid clouds during the campaign. This model bias is traced back to the way cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) get activated into cloud droplets in the two-moment, bulk microphysical scheme used in this study. This process is parameterized as function of grid-scale vertical velocity in the microphysical scheme used, but in-cloud turbulence cannot sufficiently be resolved at 1.2 km horizontal resolution in Arctic clouds. By parameterizing subgrid-scale vertical motion as a function of turbulent kinetic energy, we are able to achieve a more realistic CCN activation into cloud droplets. Additionally, we showed that by scaling the presently used CCN activation profile, the hydrometeor number concentration could be modified to be in better agreement with ACLOUD observations in our revised CCN activation parameterization. This consequently results in an improved representation of cloud optical properties in our ICON simulations.

    Abstract Berlin is amongst the cities most affected by the current monkeypox outbreak. Here, we report clinical characteristics of the first patients with confirmed monkeypox admitted to our center. We analyzed anamnestic, clinical, and laboratory data. Within a period of 2 weeks, six patients were hospitalized in our unit. All were MSM and had practiced condomless receptive anal intercourse in the weeks preceding admission. The chief complaint in all patients but one was severe anal pain unprecedented in severity. Investigations revealed proctitis, as well as anal and rectal ulcers with detection of monkeypox virus. Our findings support the hypothesis that sexual transmission plays a role in the current outbreak.
