Abstract
n-Butanol is an essential chemical intermediate produced through microbial fermentation. However, its toxicity to microbial cells has limited its production to a great extent. The anaerobe lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are the most resistant to n-butanol, so it should be the first choice for improving n-butanol production. The present article aims to review the following aspects of n-butanol production by LAB: (1) the tolerance of LAB to n-butanol, including its tolerance level and potential tolerance mechanisms; (2) genome editing tools in the n-butanol-resistant LAB; (3) methods of LAB modification for n-butanol production and the production levels after modification. This review will provide a theoretical basis for further research on n-butanol production by LAB.
