2,3 - Butanediol (2,3 - BD) is an important microbial metabolite and is widely used in many fields such as food, medicine, and chemical industry. The low efficiency of microbial synthesis of 2,3 - BD has always restricted the industrialization process of its bio - manufacturing. Applying the theories and methods of metabolic engineering to optimize the metabolic pathways of microorganisms is expected to solve this problem. This article comprehensively summarizes the strain modification and construction techniques in the research process of microbial synthesis of 2,3 - BD in recent years, including overexpressing the key enzyme - encoding genes in the synthesis pathway, knocking out the key enzyme - encoding genes in the bypass metabolic pathway, applying cofactor engineering means to redesign and rationally modify the metabolic network of natural strains, and using synthetic biology techniques to construct a brand - new metabolic pathway in model strains to achieve the efficient biosynthesis of 2,3 - BD.
