Metabolic pathways for the production of 1,2-PDO from lactate (Lactate pathway). Acetate and ethanol synthesis pathway are from the proposed pathway for anaerobic degradation of lactic acid by L. buchneri [24]. Pct: propionate CoA-transferase (M. elsdenii); pduP: propanal dehydrogenase (S. enterica); yahK: lactaldehyde reductase (E. coli)
