Decrease of 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde accumulation in 1,3-propanediol production by over-expressing <Emphasis Type="Italic">dha</Emphasis>T gene in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Klebsiella pneumoniae</Emphasis> TUAC01

Glycerol can be biologically converted to 1,3-propanediol, a key raw material required for the synthesis of polytrimethylene terephthalate and other polyester fibers. In 1,3-propanediol synthesis pathway, 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) was an inhibitory intermediary metabolite. The accumulation of 3-HPA in broth would cause an irreversible cessation of the fermentation process. With the object of reducing 3-HPA level in the fermentation broth, dhaT gene which encodes 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (PDOR) was cloned and over expressed in 1,3-propanediol producing bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae TUAC01. dhaT gene was linked downstream of the ptac promoter in an expressing vector pDK6 to form plasmid pDK-dhaT. The newly formed pDK-dhaT was transformed to K. pneumoniae TUAC01. Under the inducement of IPTG, PDOR was over-expressed when the constructed strain was cultured on an LB medium or a fermentation medium. A 5 L scale-up fermentation experiment was done to test the 3-HPA accumulation in broth, with the initial substrate glycerol 30 g/L; the peak levels of 3-HPA in broth were 7.55 and 1.49 mmol/L for control host strain and the constructed strain, respectively. In 50 g/L initial glycerol experiment, the peak level of 3-HPA in broth was 12.57 and 2.02 mmol/l for the control host strain and the constructed strain, respectively. Thus the fermentation cessation caused by the toxicity of 3-HPA was alleviated in the constructed strain.     

克雷伯杆菌甘油脱氢酶和1,3-丙二醇氧化还原酶的动力学机制

本研究主要对克雷伯杆菌甘油转化1,3-丙二醇代谢途径中的2个关键酶甘油脱氢酶(GDH)、1,3-丙二醇氧化还原酶(PDOR)反应机制和动力学进行了研究。首先,通过初速度和产物抑制动力学研究确定了GDH、PDOR双底物酶促反应机制为有序BiBi机制,明确了由反应物消耗到产物生成之间的历程。其次,建立了GDH、PDOR双底物酶促反应动力学模型,由动力学模型可知,在偶合反应中,如果GDH和PDOR酶量相同,GDH氧化反应成为限速反应,而辅酶I将主要以氧化型NAD+形式存在。动力学信息为酶法合成1,3-丙二醇和代谢工程研究提供理论指导。     

Regulation of 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde accumulation in Klebsiella pneumoniae by overexpression of dhaT and dhaD genes

3-Hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA), an important intermediary metabolite of 1,3-propanediol (PDO) production, would be toxic to the cell growth and led to the abnormal cessation of the fermentation process. In this study, the dhaD gene encoding glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH) and dhaT gene encoding 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (PDOR) were overexpressed in Klebsiella pneumoniae ACCC 10082 to decrease the 3-HPA accumulation and increase the coenzyme NADH supply. By the construction of pTD plasmid, GDH and PDOR were both overexpressed and their enzyme activities were increased by 2.6- and 3.2-fold, respectively. The enzyme activity ratio of PDOR/GDHt (glycerol dehydratase) also was increased. On the other hand, NADH production was enhanced and the ratio of NADH/NAD⁺ exceeded 1 after the inducement of IPTG for the constructed strain. The two factors enhanced the transformation of 3-HPA to PDO. In the batch and fed-batch fermentation by the constructed strain, the peak of 3-HPA accumulation reduced by 52.2% and 33.3%, respectively, compared with the control. The PDO concentration and yield reached 59.2 g/L and 0.48 mol/mol, respectively. Furthermore, the fed-batch fermentation process appeared easier to be regulated. This work is considered helpful for the further understanding on the PDO metabolic mechanism of K. pneumoniae and also useful for the PDO fermentation in a large-scale bioreactor.     

Kinetic, dynamic, and pathway studies of glycerol metabolism by Klebsiella pneumoniae in anaerobic continuous culture: III. Enzymes and fluxes of glycerol dissimilation and 1,3-propanediol formation

The initial steps of glycerol dissimilation and 1,3-propanediol (1, 3-PD) formation by Klebsiella pneumoniae anaerobically grown on glycerol were studied by quantifying the in vitro and in vivo activities of enzymes in continuous culture under conditions of steady state and oscillation and during transient phases. The enzymes studied included glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH), glycerol dehydratase (GDHt), and 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (PDOR). Three conclusions can be drawn from the steady-state results. First, glycerol concentration in the culture is a key parameter that inversely affects the in vitro activities (concentrations) of all three enzymes, but has a positive effect on their in vivo activities. Growth rate significantly affects the ratio of in vitro and in vivo enzyme activities under low glycerol concentrations, but not under glycerol excess. Second, whereas the flux through the oxidative pathway of glycerol dissimilation is governed mainly by the regulation of in vivo enzyme activity on a metabolic level, the flux through the reductive pathway is largely controlled by the synthesis of enzymes. Third, GDHt is a major rate-liming enzyme for the consumption of glycerol and the formation of 1,3-PD in K. pneumoniae at high glycerol concentrations. Results from oscillating cultures revealed that both in vitro and in vivo activities of the enzymes oscillated. The average values of the in vitro activities during an oscillation cycle agreed well with their corresponding values for nonoscillating cultures under similar environmental conditions. Experiments with step changes in the feed concentration of glycerol demonstrated that growth and product formation are very sensitive to changes of substrate concentration in the culture. This sensitivity is due to the dynamic responses of the genetic and metabolic networks. They should be considered when modeling the dynamics of the culture and attempting to improve the formation of 1,3-PD.     

Molecular Cloning, Co-expression, and Characterization of Glycerol Dehydratase and 1,3-Propanediol Dehydrogenase from Citrobacter freundii

1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PD), an important material for chemical industry, is biologically synthesized by glycerol dehydratase (GDHt) and 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase (PDOR). In present study, the dhaBCE and dhaT genes encoding glycerol dehydratase and 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase respectively were cloned from Citrobacter freundii and co-expressed in E. coli. Sequence analysis revealed that the cloned genes were 85 and 77 % identical to corresponding gene of C. freundii DSM 30040 (GenBank No. U09771), respectively. The over-expressed recombinant enzymes were purified by nickel-chelate chromatography combined with gel filtration, and recombinant GDHt and PDOR were characterized by activity assay, kinetic analysis, pH, and temperature optimization. This research may form a basis for the future work on biological synthesis of 1,3-PD.

Combined use of proteomic analysis and enzyme activity assays for metabolic pathway analysis of glycerol fermentation by Klebsiella pneumoniae

The fed-batch fermentation of glycerol to 1,3-propanediol by Klebsiella pneumoniae displayed an unusual dynamic behavior that can be clearly divided into four distinct phases according to cell growth and CO(2) evolution rate. Metabolism changed significantly during the different phases as reflected by the varied specific rates of substrate consumption and product formation. An assay of activities of the three initial enzymes of glycerol metabolism, namely glycerol dehydratase (GDHt), glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH), and 1,3-propanediol-oxidoreductase (PDOR), showed apparently different patterns of expression. To understand the culture dynamics and patterns of enzyme formation at a more systemic level we analyzed the expression patterns of intracellular proteins of K. pneumoniae from different phases of the fed-batch fermentation using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE). Two new enzymes, namely a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent dihydroxyacetone kinase (DHAK II) and a hypothetical oxidoreductase (HOR), which are directly related to glycerol metabolism and 1,3-propanediol formation, were identified among the highly expressed proteins. The changes in expression of these new enzymes and several other proteins identified from the 2DE analysis helped to understand not only the dynamic behavior of the fed-batch fermentation reported in this work but also some previously insufficiently understood phenomena related to this fermentation process. In particular, we demonstrated the combined use of proteomic analysis and enzyme activity assay data for metabolic pathway analysis and for a better identification of targets for bioprocess improvement.     

Recombinant glycerol dehydratase from Klebsiella pneumoniae XJPD-Li: induction optimization, purification and characterization

Glycerol dehydratase (GDHt) is the rate limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of 1,3-propanediol from glycerol. The optimization of inducting process for recombinant GDHt from Klebsiella pneumoniae XJPD-Li carried out to increase specific activity and ratio of soluble form. The optimum condition was inducing under the isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactoside concentration of 0.8 mM and the temperature of 20 degrees C for 3 h. Homogeneity of GDHt then was obtained by affinity chromatography, resulted in 2.11-fold purification and an overall yield of 47.5%. The optimum pH and reaction temperature of GDHt were pH 8.0 and 45 degrees C, respectively. The K(m) for glycerol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,2-ethanediol and coenzyme B12 were 0.48, 1.43, 3.07 mM, and 10.03 nM, respectively. The GDHt showed relatively stable even under temperature of 40 degrees C and a bit blunt to oxygen. The thermo-inactivation kinetic models were fit linear under different temperatures.
