Succinic acid is an important C4 platform compound that serves as a raw material for the production of 1,4-butanediol, tetrahydrofuran, and biodegradable plastics such as polybutylene succinate (PBS). Compared to the traditional petrochemical-based route that uses maleic anhydride as a raw material, the microbial fermentation method for producing succinic acid offers more sustainable economic value and environmental friendliness. Yeasts with good acid tolerance can achieve low-pH fermentation of succinic acid, significantly reducing the cost of product extraction. Therefore, constructing high-yield succinic acid yeast strains through metabolic engineering has garnered increasing attention. This paper systematically introduced the application value and market size of succinic acid, summarized the pathways and key enzymes involved in succinic acid synthesis in microorganisms, and elaborated on the latest research progress in the synthesis of succinic acid using yeast cell factories. It also presented the current status of succinic acid synthesis using non-food raw materials such as glycerol, acetic acid, lignocellulosic hydrolysate, and others as substrates by engineered yeast strains. Finally, the paper provided a prospect for low-pH succinic acid biomanufacturing based on yeast cell factories. |
