Growing concerns of environmental pollution and fossil resource shortage are major driving forces for bio‐based production of chemicals traditionally from petrochemical industry. Dicarboxylic acids (DCAs) are important platform chemicals with large market and wide applications, and here the recent advances in bio‐based production of straight‐chain DCAs longer than C4 from biological approaches, especially by synthetic biology, are reviewed. A couple of pathways were recently designed and demonstrated for producing DCAs, even those ranging from C5 to C15, by employing respective starting units, extending units, and appropriate enzymes. Furthermore, in order to achieve higher production of DCAs, enormous efforts were made in engineering microbial hosts that harbored the biosynthetic pathways and in improving properties of biocatalytic elements to enhance metabolic fluxes toward target DCAs. Here we summarize and discuss the current advantages and limitations of related pathways, and also provide perspectives on synthetic pathway design and optimization for hyper‐production of DCAs. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Most fatty acids in phospholipids and other lipid species carry an even number of carbon atoms. Also odd-chain fatty acids (OCFAs), such as C15:0 and C17:0, are widespread throughout the living organism. However, the qualitative and quantitative profiles of OCFAs-containing lipids in living organisms remain unclear. Here, we show that OCFAs are present in Drosophila phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and that their level increases in accordance with progression of growth. Furthermore, we found that food-derived propionic acid/propanoic acid (C3:0) is utilized for production of OCFA-containing PC and PE. This study provides the basis for understanding in vivo function of OCFA-containing phospholipids in development and lipid homeostasis. 相似文献

Speeding up design-build-test (DBT) cycles is a fundamental challenge facing biochemical engineering. To address this challenge, we report a new cell-free protein synthesis driven metabolic engineering (CFPS-ME) framework for rapid biosynthetic pathway prototyping. In our framework, cell-free cocktails for synthesizing target small molecules are assembled in a mix-and-match fashion from crude cell lysates either containing selectively enriched pathway enzymes from heterologous overexpression or directly producing pathway enzymes in lysates by CFPS. As a model, we apply our approach to n-butanol biosynthesis showing that Escherichia coli lysates support a highly active 17-step CoA-dependent n-butanol pathway in vitro. The elevated degree of flexibility in the cell-free environment allows us to manipulate physiochemical conditions, access enzymatic nodes, discover new enzymes, and prototype enzyme sets with linear DNA templates to study pathway performance. We anticipate that CFPS-ME will facilitate efforts to define, manipulate, and understand metabolic pathways for accelerated DBT cycles without the need to reengineer organisms. 相似文献

The unbalanced distribution of carbon flux in microbial cell factories can lead to inefficient production and poor cell growth. Uncoupling cell growth and chemical synthesis can therefore improve microbial cell factory efficiency. Such uncoupling, which requires precise manipulation of carbon fluxes, can be achieved by up-regulating or down-regulating the expression of enzymes of various pathways. In this study, a dynamic turn-off switch (dTFS) and a dynamic turn-on switch (dTNS) were constructed using growth phase-dependent promoters and degrons. By combining the dTFS and dTNS, a bifunctional molecular switch that could orthogonally regulate two target proteins was introduced. This bifunctional molecular switch was used to uncouple cell growth from shikimic acid and D-glucaric acid synthesis, resulting in the production of 14.33 g/L shikimic acid and the highest reported productivity of D-glucaric acid (0.0325 g/L/h) in Escherichia coli MG1655. This proved that the bifunctional molecular switch could rewire carbon fluxes by controlling target protein abundance. 相似文献

Synthetic biology provides a significant platform in creating novel pathways/organisms for producing useful compounds, while it remains a challenge to enhance the production efficiency. Recently we constructed a recombinant Escherichia coli for glutarate production using a synthetic α-ketoacid reduction pathway, in which α-ketoglutarate is reduced to 2-hydroxyglutarate then converted to glutarate. However, the production titer was low, which may be due to 1) oxygen-sensitive nature of 2-hydroxyglutaryl-CoA dehydratase (HgdABC) and 2) limited cell growth in anaerobic cultivation. Therefore, we developed an aerobic-anaerobic two-stage strategy by growing more cells aerobically, then shifting to anaerobic cultivation to ensure the functional HgdABC for glutarate biosynthesis. The two-stage cultivation resulted in higher production of glutarate and other two C5 dicarboxylic acids – glutaconate and 2-hydroxylglutarate than the original anaerobic process. Furthermore, we used an anaerobically-inducible nar promoter to improve the hgdABC expression responding to aerobic-anaerobic shift. Finally, the glutarate, glutaconate and 2-hydroxyglutarate titer was increased about 2, 5 and 3 times, reaching 11.6, 108.8 and 399.5 mg/L, respectively. The work demonstrated an effective strategy for ameliorating α-ketoacid reduction pathway to produce C5 dicarboxylic acids, as well as the potential of integration of bioprocess and metabolic engineering for enhancing chemicals production by an engineered microorganism. 相似文献

The structural diversity of lipids underpins the biophysical properties of cellular membranes, which vary across all scales of biological organization. Because lipid composition results from complex metabolic and transport pathways, its experimental control has been a major goal of mechanistic membrane biology. Here, we argue that in the wake of synthetic biology, similar metabolic engineering strategies can be applied to control the composition, physicochemical properties, and function of cell membranes. In one emerging area, titratable expression platforms allow for specific and genome-wide alterations in lipid biosynthetic genes, providing analog control over lipidome stoichiometry in membranes. Simultaneously, heterologous expression of biosynthetic genes and pathways has allowed for gain-of-function experiments with diverse lipids in non-native systems. Finally, we highlight future directions for tool development, including recently discovered lipid transport pathways to intracellular lipid pools. Further tool development providing synthetic control of membrane properties can allow biologists to untangle membrane lipid structure-associated functions. 相似文献

Synthetic Escherichia coli consortia engineered for syntrophy demonstrated enhanced biomass productivity relative to monocultures. Binary consortia were designed to mimic a ubiquitous, naturally occurring ecological template of primary productivity supported by secondary consumption. The synthetic consortia replicated this evolution-proven strategy by combining a glucose positive E. coli strain, which served as the system's primary producer, with a glucose negative E. coli strain which consumed metabolic byproducts from the primary producer. The engineered consortia utilized strategic division of labor to simultaneously optimize multiple tasks enhancing overall culture performance. Consortial interactions resulted in the emergent property of enhanced system biomass productivity which was demonstrated with three distinct culturing systems: batch, chemostat and biofilm growth. Glucose-based biomass productivity increased by ∼15, 20 and 50% compared to appropriate monoculture controls for these three culturing systems, respectively. Interestingly, the consortial interactions also produced biofilms with predictable, self-assembling, laminated microstructures. This study establishes a metabolic engineering paradigm which can be easily adapted to existing E. coli based bioprocesses to improve productivity based on a robust ecological theme. 相似文献

Carbon-conserving pathways have the potential of increasing product yields in biotechnological processes. The aim of this project was to investigate the functionality of a novel carbon-conserving pathway that produces 3 mol of acetyl-CoA from fructose-6-phosphate without carbon loss in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This cyclic pathway relies on a generalist phosphoketolase (Xfspk), which can convert xylulose-5-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate and sedoheptulose-7-phosphate (S7P) to acetyl phosphate. This cycle is proposed to overcome bottlenecks from the previously reported non-oxidative glycolysis (NOG) cycle. Here, in silico simulations showed accumulation of S7P in the NOG cycle, which was resolved by blocking the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway and introducing Xfspk and part of the riboneogenesis pathway. To implement this, a transketolase and transaldolase deficient S. cerevisiae was generated and a cyclic pathway, the Glycolysis AlTernative High Carbon Yield Cycle (GATHCYC), was enabled through xfspk expression and sedoheptulose bisphosphatase (SHB17) overexpression. Flux through the GATHCYC was demonstrated in vitro with a phosphoketolase assay on crude cell free extracts, and in vivo by constructing a strain that was dependent on a functional pathway to survive. Finally, we showed that introducing the GATHCYC as a carbon-conserving route for 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) production resulted in a 109% increase in 3-HP titers when the glucose was exhausted compared to the phosphoketolase route only. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate hydrolysis of animal fleshing (ANFL), a predominant tannery solid waste and to characterize the acetogenic fermentation products of anaerobic digestion. The acidogenic digestibility of the tannery solid wastes were evaluated up to 120 h using batch anaerobic digestion tests performed under mesophilic condition at 37 degrees C. The degradation of ANFL starts with non-fibrillar proteins and proceeds with fibrillar proteins. The release of aliphatic amino acid in the early stages of hydrolysis (24 h) and followed by aromatic amino acids (24-72 h) were evidenced by HPLC analysis. The maximum production of propionic and valeric acid were observed in 72 h followed by rapid increase in acetic acid in 96 h using GC-MS. Breakdown of ANFL and formations of other metabolites were evidenced by FT-IR and (1)H-NMR spectroscopy. 相似文献
