为什么放进合成菌群专题
聚焦生物生产过程中的人工共培养：平台化合物、燃料、药物和复杂底物转化。
核心解读
要点 1
人工共培养可减少工艺步骤，整合底物预处理、酶分泌和产物合成。
要点 2
过程监测需要跟踪群体动态，而不是只测总生物量。
要点 3
菌株不兼容和竞争/拮抗会让看似合理的组合失败。

摘要级内容摘记
The application of artificial microbial consortia for biotechnological production processes is an emerging field in research as it offers great potential for the improvement of established as well as the development of novel processes. In this review, we summarize recent highlights in the usage of various microbial consortia for the production of, for example, platform chemicals, biofuels, or pharmaceutical compounds. It aims to demonstrate the great potential of co-cultures by employing different organisms and interaction mechanisms and exploiting their respective advantages. Bacteria and yeasts often offer a broad spectrum of possible products, fungi enable the utilization of complex lignocellulosic substrates via enzyme secretion and hydrolysis, and microalgae can feature their abilities to fixate CO2 through photosynthesis for other organisms as well as to form lipids as potential fuelstocks. However, the complexity of interactions between microbes require methods for observing population dynamics within the process and modern approaches such as modeling or automation for process development. After shortly discussing these interaction mechanisms, we aim to present a broad variety of successfully established co-culture processes to display the potential of artificial microbial consortia for the production of biotechnological products.
