Fermentor study also showed that in the recombinants harboring vgb, CDW, PHBHHx concentration and productivity were significantly elevated up to 54 g l-1, 28.5 g l-1 and 0.791 g l-1 h-1, respectively, suggesting that vgb could promote PHA synthesis. In this strain, lac promoter could be used to constitutively express foreign genes such as phbA and phbB encoding beta-ketothiolase and NADPH-dependent acetoacetyl-CoA reductase of W. eutropha, respectively, without use of IPTG. The results showed that combined expression of different genes was a successful strategy to enhance PHA production, which could be useful for strain development to construct other recombinant PHA-producing strains.
