Assessment of New and Genome-Reduced Pseudomonas Strains Regarding Their Robustness as Chassis in Biotechnological Applications.

ABSTRACT: Organic olvent-tolerant strains of the Gram-negative bacterial genus Pseudomonas are discussed as potential biocatalysts for the biotechnological production of various chemicals. However, many current strains with the highest tolerance are belonging to the species P. putida and are classified as biosafety level 2 strains, which makes them uninteresting for the biotechnological industry. Therefore, it is necessary to identify other biosafety level 1 Pseudomonas strains with high tolerance towards solvents and other forms of stress, which are suitable for establishing production platforms of biotechnological processes. In order to exploit the native potential of Pseudomonas as a microbial cell factory, the biosafety level 1 strain P. taiwanensis VLB120 and
