Fig. 2

Metabolic pathways for the production of 1,2-PDO from glucose (Methylglyoxal pathway). The genes in Fig. 2 are all from E. coli. ALDO: fructose–bisphosphate aldolase; tpi: triose-phosphate isomerase; mgsA: methylglyoxal synthase; gldA: glycerol dehydrogenase; yqhD: alcohol dehydrogenase; fucO: propanediol oxidoreductase; Glyoxalase system: glyoxalase I (lactoylglutathione lyase), glyoxalase II (hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase)
