1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PDO) is a promising platform chemical used to manufacture various polyesters, polyethers, and polyurethanes. Microbial production of 1,3-PDO using non-natural producers often requires adding expensive cofactors such as vitamin B12, which increases the whole production cost. In this study, we proposed and engineered a non-natural 1,3-PDO synthetic pathway derived from acetyl-CoA, enabling efficient accumulation of 1,3-PDO in Escherichia coli without adding expensive cofactors. This functional pathway was establis
