鼠李糖乳杆菌D-乳酸脱氢酶基因ldhD的敲除

聚乳酸由可再生原料L-乳酸合成,是目前应用的最环保的生物塑料之一。鼠李糖乳杆菌JCM1553中的L-乳酸和D-乳酸,它们是由代谢途径中的L-乳酸脱氢酶和D-乳酸脱氢酶分别催化丙酮酸而生成。L-乳酸的光学纯度对于L-乳酸的应用至关重要。因此,为了获取光学纯的L-乳酸,需要敲除该鼠李糖乳杆菌编码D-乳酸脱氢酶的基因ldhD以阻断相关的D-乳酸代谢途径。本研究采用pK18mobsacB自杀质粒运用重叠延伸PCR和同源重组技术成功构建得到重组鼠李糖乳杆菌菌株JCM1553-△ldhD。构建的缺失突变体JCM1553-△ldhD菌株没有引入外源基因,完全符合食品、药品安全要求,发酵液中检测到的L-乳酸含量为99.92%,光学纯度达到99.84%,显著优于野生型菌株。     

来自詹氏乳杆菌的耐热D-乳酸脱氢酶的酶学性质研究

【目的】D-乳酸脱氢酶是催化丙酮酸合成D-乳酸的关键酶。由于其不耐热,从而限制了D-乳酸高温发酵菌株的构建。本文从詹氏乳杆菌中克隆新型D-乳酸脱氢酶研究其酶学性质,为构建D-乳酸高温发酵菌株,进一步降低D-乳酸生产成本奠定基础。【方法】通过克隆詹氏乳杆菌的D-乳酸脱氢酶,将其进行体外表达,并与来自植物乳杆菌中的D-乳酸脱氢酶的最适温度、最适pH、动力学参数及热稳定性和热失活性相比较,研究詹氏乳杆菌D-乳酸脱氢酶的耐热性。【结果】詹氏乳杆菌的D-乳酸脱氢酶最适温度(45 °C)比植物乳杆菌中的D-乳酸脱氢酶的最适温度(30 °C)高很多,热失活的时间和温度均要比植物乳杆菌中D-乳酸脱氢酶高很多。同时其催化效率(kcat/Km)是植物乳杆菌D-乳酸脱氢酶的3倍左右。【结论】詹氏乳杆菌的D-乳酸脱氢酶具有更好的耐热性和更高的催化活力。

Metabolic engineering of Lactobacillus helveticus CNRZ32 for production of pure L-(+)-lactic acid

Expression of D-(-)-lactate dehydrogenase (D-LDH) and L-(+)-LDH genes (ldhD and ldhL, respectively) and production of D-(-)- and L-(+)-lactic acid were studied in Lactobacillus helveticus CNRZ32. In order to develop a host for production of pure L-(+)-isomer of lactic acid, two ldhD-negative L. helveticus CNRZ32 strains were constructed using gene replacement. One of the strains was constructed by deleting the promoter region of the ldhD gene, and the other was constructed by replacing the structural gene of ldhD with an additional copy of the structural gene (ldhL) of L-LDH of the same species. The resulting strains were designated GRL86 and GRL89, respectively. In strain GRL89, the second copy of the ldhL structural gene was expressed under the ldhD promoter. The two D-LDH-negative strains produced only L-(+)-lactic acid in an amount equal to the total lactate produced by the wild type. The maximum L-LDH activity was found to be 53 and 93% higher in GRL86 and GRL89, respectively, than in the wild-type strain. Furthermore, process variables for L-(+)-lactic acid production by GRL89 were optimized using statistical experimental design and response surface methodology. The temperature and pH optima were 41 degrees C and pH 5.9. At low pH, when the growth and lactic acid production are uncoupled, strain GRL89 produced approximately 20% more lactic acid than GRL86.     

Lactobacillus plantarum ldhL gene: overexpression and deletion.

Lactobacillus plantarum is a lactic acid bacterium that converts pyruvate to L-(+)- and D-(-)-lactate with stereospecific enzymes designated L-(+)- and D-(-)-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), respectively. A gene (designated ldhL) that encodes L-(+)-lactate dehydrogenase from L. plantarum DG301 was cloned by complementation in Escherichia coli. The nucleotide sequence of the ldhL gene predicted a protein of 320 amino acids closely related to that of Lactobacillus pentosus. A multicopy plasmid bearing the ldhL gene without modification of its expression signals was introduced in L. plantarum. L-LDH activity was increased up to 13-fold through this gene dosage effect. However, this change had hardly any effect on the production of L-(+)- and D-(-)-lactate. A stable chromosomal deletion in the ldhL gene was then constructed in L. plantarum by a two-step homologous recombination process. Inactivation of the gene resulted in the absence of L-LDH activity and in exclusive production of the D isomer of lactate. However, the global concentration of lactate in the culture supernatant remained unchanged.     

The Archaeoglobus fulgidus D-lactate dehydrogenase is a Zn(2+) flavoprotein

Archaeoglobus fulgidus, a hyperthermophilic, archaeal sulfate reducer, is one of the few organisms that can utilize D-lactate as a sole source for both carbon and electrons. The A. fulgidus open reading frame, AF0394, which is predicted to encode a D-(-)-lactate dehydrogenase (Dld), was cloned, and its product was expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion with the maltose binding protein (MBP). The 90-kDa MBP-Dld fusion protein was more efficiently expressed in E. coli when coexpressed with the E. coli dnaY gene, encoding the arginyl tRNA for the codons AGA and AGG. When cleaved from the fusion protein by treatment with factor Xa, the recombinant Dld (rDld) has an apparent molecular mass of 50 kDa, similar to that of the native A. fulgidus Dld enzyme. Both the purified MBP-Dld fusion protein and its rDld cleavage fragment have lactate dehydrogenase activities specific for D-lactate, are stable at 80 degrees C, and retain activity after exposure to oxygen. The flavin cofactor FAD, which binds rDld apoprotein with a 1:1 stoichiometry, is essential for activity.     

D-Lactate dehydrogenase gene (ldhD) inactivation and resulting metabolic effects in the Lactobacillus johnsonii strains La1 and N312.

Lactobacillus johnsonii La1, a probiotic bacterium with demonstrated health effects, grows in milk, where it ferments lactose to D- and L-lactate in a 60:40% ratio. The D-lactate dehydrogenase (D-LDH) gene (ldhD) of this strain was isolated, and an in vitro-truncated copy of that gene was used to inactivate the genomic copy in two strains, La1 and N312, by gene replacement. For that, an 8-bp deletion was generated within the cloned ldhD gene to inactivate its function. The plasmid containing the altered ldhD was transferred to L. johnsonii via conjugative comobilization with Lactococcus lactis carrying pAMbeta1. Crossover integrations of the plasmid at the genomic ldhD site were selected, and appropriate resolution of the cointegrate structures resulted in mutants that had lost the plasmid and in which the original ldhD was replaced by the truncated copy. These mutants completely lacked D-LDH activity. Nevertheless, the lower remaining L-LDH activity of the cells was sufficient to reroute most of the accumulating pyruvate to L-lactate. Only a marginal increase in production of the secondary end products acetaldehyde, diacetyl, and acetoin was observed. It can be concluded that in L. johnsonii D- and L-LDH are present in substantial excess for their role to eliminate pyruvate and regenerate NAD(+) and that accumulated pyruvate is therefore not easily redirected in high amounts to secondary metabolic routes.

Cloning and expression of the enolase gene from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Miyazaki F)

The gene encoding an enolase from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Miyazaki F) was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. A 2.1-kb DNA fragment, isolated from D. vulgaris (Miyazaki F) by double digestion with PstI and BamHI, contained an enolase gene (eno) and part of the methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase gene (folD). The nucleotide sequence of eno indicates that the protein monomer is composed of 434 amino acids. An expression system for eno under control of the T7 promoter was constructed in E. coli. The purified His-tagged enolase formed a homooctamer and was active in the formation of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) as well as in the reverse reaction, the formation of D-(+)-2-phosphoglyceric acid (2-PGA). The pH dependence and kinetic properties of the recombinant enolase from the sulfate-reducing bacterium were also studied. The amounts of eno mRNA when the bacterium was grown on glycerol or glucose were compared to that when D. vulgaris was grown on lactate.     

Functional replacement of the Escherichia coli D-(-)-lactate dehydrogenase gene (ldhA) with the L-(+)-lactate dehydrogenase gene (ldhL) from Pediococcus acidilactici

The microbial production of L-(+)-lactic acid is rapidly expanding to allow increased production of polylactic acid (PLA), a renewable, biodegradable plastic. The physical properties of PLA can be tailored for specific applications by controlling the ratio of L-(+) and D-(-) isomers. For most uses of PLA, the L-(+) isomer is more abundant. As an approach to reduce costs associated with biocatalysis (complex nutrients, antibiotics, aeration, product purification, and waste disposal), a recombinant derivative of Escherichia coli W3110 was developed that contains five chromosomal deletions (focA-pflB frdBC adhE ackA ldhA). This strain was constructed from a D-(-)-lactic acid-producing strain, SZ63 (focA-pflB frdBC adhE ackA), by replacing part of the chromosomal ldhA coding region with Pediococcus acidilactici ldhL encoding an L-lactate dehydrogenase. Although the initial strain (SZ79) grew and fermented poorly, a mutant (SZ85) was readily isolated by selecting for improved growth. SZ85 exhibited a 30-fold increase in L-lactate dehydrogenase activity in comparison to SZ79, functionally replacing the native D-lactate dehydrogenase activity. Sequencing revealed mutations in the upstream, coding, and terminator regions of ldhL in SZ85, which are presumed to be responsible for increased L-lactate dehydrogenase activity. SZ85 produced L-lactic acid in M9 mineral salts medium containing glucose or xylose with a yield of 93 to 95%, a purity of 98% (based on total fermentation products), and an optical purity greater than 99%. Unlike other recombinant biocatalysts for L-lactic acid, SZ85 remained prototrophic and is devoid of plasmids and antibiotic resistance genes.

Characterization of the fructose 1,6-bisphosphate-activated, L(+)-lactate dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus.

The L(+)-lactate dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus wt was purified to a final specific activity of 598 mumol pyruvate reduced per min per mg of protein. The specific activity of the pure enzyme with L(+)-lactate was 0.79 units per mg of protein. The M(r) of the native enzyme was 134,000 containing a single subunit type of M(r) 33,500 indicating an apparent tetrameric structure. The L(+)-lactate dehydrogenase was activated by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate in a cooperative manner affecting Vmax and Km values. The activity of the enzyme was also effected by pH, pyruvate and NADH. The Km for NADH at pH 6.0 was 0.05 mM and the Vmax for pyruvate reduction at pH 6.0 was 1082 units per mg in the presence of 1 mM fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The enzyme was inhibited by NADPH, displaying an uncompetitive pattern. This pattern indicated that NADPH was a negative modifier of the enzyme. The role of L(+)-lactate dehydrogenase in controlling the end products of fermentation is discussed.
