We constructed recombinant plasmids carrying the genes coding for the L-threonine biosynthetic enzymes, the hom gene, the hom-thrC genes, and the thrB genes, of a gram-negative obligate methylotroph, Methylobacillus glycogenes, and examined the effects of them on the production of L-threonine from methanol. The hom gene, which encodes the homoserine dehydrogenase, and the hom-thrC genes, containing the gene coding for threonine synthase together with the hom gene, were cloned from a wild-type strain, and the thrB gene encoding the desensitized homoserine kinase was cloned from an L-threonine-producing mutant, ATR80. The recombinant plasmids were transferred into ATR80 and its L-isoleucine auxotroph, A513, by conjugation. Amplification of the genes coding for the L-threonine biosynthetic enzymes elevated the activities of the L-threonine biosynthetic enzymes of the transconjugants 10- to 30-fold over those of the strains containing only vectors. The L-threonine production from methanol in test-tube cultivation was increased about 30% and 40% by the amplification of the hom gene and the hom-thrC gene respectively, and it was slightly increased by that of the thrB gene. The effects of gene amplification were confirmed by the cultivation in 5-1 jar fermentors. The best producer, an A513 transconjugant containing the plasmid carrying the hom-thrC genes, produced 16.3 g/l L-threonine for 72 h. 相似文献

Halomonas bluephagenesis TD1.0 was engineered to produce the biofuel propane, bioplastic poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), and biochemicals mandelate and hydroxymandelate in a single, semi-continuous batch fermentation under non-sterile conditions. Multi-product separation was achieved by segregation of the headspace gas (propane), fermentation broth ([hydroxy]mandelate) and cellular biomass (PHB). Engineering was performed by incorporating the genes encoding fatty acid photodecarboxylase (CvFAP) and hydroxymandelic acid synthase (SyHMAS) into a H. bluephagenesis hmgCAB cassette knockout to channel flux towards (hydroxy)mandelate. Design of Experiment strategies were coupled with fermentation trials to simultaneously optimize each product. Propane and mandelate titres were the highest reported for H. bluephagenesis (62 g/gDCW and 71 ± 10 mg/L respectively) with PHB titres (69% g/gDCW) comparable to other published studies. This proof-of-concept achievement of four easily separated products within one fermentation is a novel achievement probing the versatility of biotechnology, further elevating H. bluephagenesis as a Next Generation Industrial Biotechnology (NGIB) chassis by producing highly valued products at a reduced cost. 相似文献

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) have found widespread medical applications due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability, while further chemical modification requires functional groups on PHA. Halomonas bluephagenesis, a non-model halophilic bacterium serving as a chassis for the Next Generation Industrial Biotechnology (NGIB), was successfully engineered to express heterologous PHA synthase (PhaC) and enoyl coenzyme-A hydratase (PhaJ) from Aeromonas hydrophila 4AK4, along with a deletion of its native phaC gene to synthesize the short chain-co-medium chain-length PHA copolymers, namely poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate), poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhex-5-enoate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate-co-3-hydroxyhex-5-enoate). After optimizations of the expression cassette and ribosomal binding site combined with introduction of endogenous acyl-CoA synthetase (fadD), the resulting recombinant strain H. bluephagenesis TDR4 achieved a remarkably high 3-hydroxyhexenoate (3HHxE) molar ratio of 35% when grown on glucose and 5-hexenoic acid as co-substrates. The total ratio of side chain consisting of 3HHx and 3HHxE monomers in the terpolymer can approach 44 mol%. H. bluephagenesis TDR4 was grown to a cell dry mass (CDM) of 30 g/L containing approximately 20% poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-22.75 mol% 3-hydroxy-5-hexenoate) in a 48-h of open and unsterile fermentation with a 5-hexenoic acid conversion efficiency of 91%. The resulted functional PHA containing 12.5 mol% 3-hydroxy-5-hexenoate exhibits more than 1000% elongation at break. The engineered H. bluephagenesis TDR4 can be used as an experimental platform to produce functional PHA. 相似文献

Halomonas bluephagenesis, a robust and contamination-resistant microorganism has been developed as a chassis for “Next Generation Industrial Biotechnology”. The non-model H. bluephagenesis requires efficient tools to fine-tune its metabolic fluxes for enhanced production phenotypes. Here we report a highly efficient gene expression regulation system (PrrF1-2-HfqPa) in H. bluephagenesis, small regulatory RNA (sRNA) PrrF1 scaffold from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and a target-binding sequence that downregulate gene expression, and its cognate P. aeruginosa Hfq (HfqPa), recruited by the scaffold to facilitate the hybridization of sRNA and the target mRNA. The PrrF1-2-HfqPa system targeting prpC in H. bluephagenesis helps increase 3-hydroxyvalerate fraction in poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) to 21 mol% compared to 3.1 mol% of the control. This sRNA system repressed phaP1 and minD simultaneously, resulting in large polyhydroxybutyrate granules. Further, an sRNA library targeting 30 genes was employed for large-scale target identification to increase mevalonate production. This work expands the study on using an sRNA system not based on Escherichia coli MicC/SgrS-Hfq to repress gene expression, providing a framework to exploit new powerful genome engineering tools based on other sRNAs. 相似文献

Halomonas bluephagenesis TD1.0 was engineered to produce the biofuel propane, bioplastic poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate (PHB), and biochemicals mandelate and hydroxymandelate in a single, semi‐continuous batch fermentation under non‐sterile conditions. Multi‐product separation was achieved by segregation of the headspace gas (propane), fermentation broth ([hydroxy]mandelate) and cellular biomass (PHB). Engineering was performed by incorporating the genes encoding fatty acid photodecarboxylase (CvFAP) and hydroxymandelic acid synthase (SyHMAS) into a H. bluephagenesis hmgCAB cassette knockout to channel flux towards (hydroxy)mandelate. Design of Experiment strategies were coupled with fermentation trials to simultaneously optimize each product. Propane and mandelate titres were the highest reported for H. bluephagenesis (62 g/gDCW and 71 ± 10 mg/L respectively) with PHB titres (69% g/gDCW) comparable to other published studies. This proof‐of‐concept achievement of four easily separated products within one fermentation is a novel achievement probing the versatility of biotechnology, further elevating H. bluephagenesis as a Next Generation Industrial Biotechnology (NGIB) chassis by producing highly valued products at a reduced cost. Halomonas bluephagenesis TD1.0 was engineered to generate multiple products propane, poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate and (hydroxy)mandate. These compounds are easily purified due to their location in the gas, phase, cell pellet and culture supernatant, respectively. This proof of principle study shows the potential application of multi‐product biosynthesis within an industrially relevant host as a route to renewable and sustainable bio manufacturing. 相似文献

Bacterial outer membrane (OM) is a self-protective and permeable barrier, while having many non-negligible negative effects in industrial biotechnology. Our previous studies revealed enhanced properties of Halomonas bluephagenesis based on positive cellular properties by OM defects. This study further expands the OM defect on membrane compactness by completely deleting two secondary acyltransferases for lipid A modification in H. bluephagenesis, LpxL and LpxM, and found more significant advantages than that of the previous lpxL mutant. Deletions on LpxL and LpxM accelerated poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) production by H. bluephagenesis WZY229, leading to a 37% increase in PHB accumulation and 84-folds reduced endotoxin production. Enhanced membrane permeability accelerates the diffusion of γ-butyrolactone, allowing H. bluephagenesis WZY254 derived from H. bluephagenesis WZY229 to produce 82wt% poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-23mol%4-hydroxybutyrate) (P(3HB-co-23mol%4HB)) in shake flasks, showing increases of 102% and 307% in P(3HB-co-4HB) production and 4HB accumulation, respectively. The 4HB molar fraction in copolymer can be elevated to 32 mol% in the presence of more γ-butyrolactone. In a 7-l bioreactor fed-batch fermentation, H. bluephagenesis WZY254 supported a 84 g l−1 dry cell mass with 81wt% P(3HB-co-26mol%4HB), increasing 136% in 4HB molar fraction. This study further demonstrated that OM defects generate a hyperproduction strain for high 4HB containing copolymers. 相似文献

Phage infection is common during the production of L-threonine by E. coli, and low L-threonine production and glucose conversion percentage are bottlenecks for the efficient commercial production of L-threonine. In this study, 20 antiphage mutants producing high concentration of L-threonine were obtained by atmospheric and room temperature plasma (ARTP) mutagenesis, and an antiphage E. coli variant was characterized that exhibited the highest production of L-threonine Escherichia coli ([E. coli] TRFC-AP). The elimination of fhuA expression in E. coli TRFC-AP was responsible for phage resistance. The biomass and cell growth of E. coli TRFC-AP showed no significant differences from those of the parent strain (E. coli TRFC), and the production of L-threonine (159.3 g L−1) and glucose conversion percentage (51.4%) were increased by 10.9% and 9.1%, respectively, compared with those of E. coli TRFC. During threonine production (culture time of 20 h), E. coli TRFC-AP exhibited higher activities of key enzymes for glucose utilization (hexokinase, glucose phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, and PYK) and threonine synthesis (glutamate synthase, aspartokinase, homoserine dehydrogenase, homoserine kinase and threonine synthase) compared to those of E. coli TRFC. The analysis of metabolic flux distribution indicated that the flux of threonine with E. coli TRFC-AP reached 69.8%, an increase of 16.0% compared with that of E. coli TRFC. Overall, higher L-threonine production and glucose conversion percentage were obtained with E. coli TRFC-AP due to increased activities of key enzymes and improved carbon flux for threonine synthesis. 相似文献

Efficient microbial cell factory for the production of homoserine from glucose has been developed by iterative and rational engineering of Escherichia coli W3110. The whole pathway from glucose to homoserine was divided into three groups, namely, glucose transport and glycolysis (‘up-stream’), TCA and glyoxylate cycles (‘mid-stream’), and homoserine module (conversion of aspartate to homoserine and its secretion; ‘down-stream’), and the carbon flux in each group as well as between the groups were accelerated and balanced. Altogether, ∼18 genes were modified for active and consistent production of homoserine during both the actively-growing and non-growing stages of cultivation. Finally, fed-batch, two-stage bioreactor experiments, separating the growth from the production stage, were conducted for 61 h, which gave the high titer of 110.8 g/L, yield of 0.64 g/g glucose and volumetric productivity of 1.82 g/L/h, with an insignificant amount of acetate (<0.5 g/L) as the only noticeable byproduct. The metabolic engineering strategy employed in this study should be applicable for the biosynthesis of other amino acids or chemicals derived from aspartic acid. 相似文献

Aspartokinase I - homoserine dehydrogenase I from Escherichia coli K-12, a homotetrameric enzyme, dissociates into dimers upon alkaline treatment. Both aspartokinase and homoserine dehydrogenase inactivation, as well as desensitazion towards L-threonine, occur in a multi-step process. Dithiothreitol stabilizes a dimeric form retaining full activity and sensitivity; L-homoserine stabilizing another dimeric form devoid of aspartokinase activity and retaining a substantial dehydrogenase activity insensitive toward L-threonine. A model is proposed showing that dissociation into dimers occurs in a first step, the resulting dimer losing both aspartokinase and homoserine dehydrogenase sensitivity in two subsequent steps involving the formation of intrachain disulfide bonds. 相似文献

5-Aminovalerate (5AVA) is the precursor of valerolactam, a potential building block for producing nylon 5, and is a C5 platform chemical for synthesizing 5-hydroxyvalerate, glutarate, and 1,5-pentanediol. Escherichia coli was metabolically engineered for the production of 5-aminovalerate (5AVA) and glutarate. When the recombinant E. coli WL3110 strain expressing the Pseudomonas putida davAB genes encoding delta-aminovaleramidase and lysine 2-monooxygenase, respectively, were cultured in a medium containing 20 g/L of glucose and 10 g/L of l-lysine, 3.6 g/L of 5AVA was produced by converting 7 g/L of l-lysine. When the davAB genes were introduced into recombinant E. coli strainXQ56allowing enhanced l-lysine synthesis, 0.27 and 0.5 g/L of 5AVA were produced directly from glucose by batch and fed-batch cultures, respectively. Further conversion of 5AVA into glutarate could be demonstrated by expression of the P. putida gabTD genes encoding 5AVA aminotransferase and glutarate semialdehyde dehydrogenase. When recombinant E. coli WL3110 strain expressing the davAB and gabTD genes was cultured in a medium containing 20 g/L glucose, 10 g/L l-lysine and 10 g/L α-ketoglutarate, 1.7 g/L of glutarate was produced. 相似文献

Conversion of xylose to ethanol by yeasts is a challenge because of the redox imbalances under oxygen-limited conditions. The thermotolerant yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus grows well with xylose as a carbon source at elevated temperatures, but its xylose fermentation ability is weak. In this study, a combination of the NADPH-preferring xylose reductase (XR) from Neurospora crassa and the NADP+-preferring xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) mutant from Scheffersomyces stipitis (Pichia stipitis) was constructed. The xylose fermentation ability and redox balance of the recombinant strains were improved significantly by over-expression of several downstream genes. The intracellular concentrations of coenzymes and the reduced coenzyme/oxidized coenzyme ratio increased significantly in these metabolic strains. The byproducts, such as glycerol and acetic acid, were significantly reduced by the disruption of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD1). The resulting engineered K. marxianus YZJ088 strain produced 44.95 g/L ethanol from 118.39 g/L xylose with a productivity of 2.49 g/L/h at 42 °C. Additionally, YZJ088 realized glucose and xylose co-fermentation and produced 51.43 g/L ethanol from a mixture of 103.97 g/L xylose and 40.96 g/L glucose with a productivity of 2.14 g/L/h at 42 °C. These promising results validate the YZJ088 strain as an excellent producer of ethanol from xylose through the synthetic xylose assimilation pathway. 相似文献

The hom-1-thrB operon encodes homoserine dehydrogenase resistant to feedback inhibition by L-threonine and homoserine kinase. Stable expression of this operon has not yet been attained in different Corynebacterium glutamicum strains. We studied the use of chromosomal integration and of a low-copy-number vector for moderate expression of the hom-1-thrB operon to enable an analysis of the physiological consequences of its expression in C. glutamicum. Strains carrying one, two, or three copies of hom-1-thrB were obtained. They showed proportionally increased enzyme activity of feedback-resistant homoserine dehydrogenase and of homoserine kinase. This phenotype was stably maintained in all recombinants for more than 70 generations. In a lysine-producing C. glutamicum strain which does not produce any threonine, expression of one copy of hom-1-thrB resulted in the secretion of 39 mM threonine. Additional copies resulted in a higher, although not proportional, accumulation of threonine (up to 69 mM). This indicates further limitations of threonine production. As the copy number of hom-1-thrB increased, increasing amounts of homoserine (up to 23 mM) and isoleucine (up to 34 mM) were secreted. Determination of the cytosolic concentration of the respective amino acids revealed an increase of intracellular threonine from 9 to 100 mM and of intracellular homoserine from 4 to 74 mM as the copy number of hom-1-thrB increased. These results suggest that threonine production with C. glutamicum is limited by the efflux system for this amino acid. Furthermore, the results show the successful use of moderate and stable hom-1-thrB expression for directing the carbon flux from aspartate to threonine. 相似文献

Background
L-threonine is an indispensable amino acid. One of the major L-threonine degradation pathways is the conversion of L-threonine via 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate to glycine. L-threonine dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.103) is the first enzyme in the pathway and catalyses the reaction: L-threonine + NAD+ = 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate + NADH. The murine and porcine L-threonine dehydrogenase genes (TDH) have been identified previously, but the human gene has not been identified. 相似文献18.
Pinewood nematodes (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) and Asian longhorned beetles (Anoplophora glabripennis) are the primary regulated pests for packaging wood and timber in the EU, while the house longhorned beetle (Hylotrupes bajulus) is the most important cosmopolitan pest of construction wood. Gaseous hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is one of the few fumigation alternatives to the banned ozone-depleting chemical methyl bromide (MBr). This study reports the results of HCN fumigation experiments in a hermetically sealed steel chamber regarding (1) the penetration and absorption rates of HCN in wooden blocks, and (2) the biological efficacy of HCN against the wood-infesting pests B. xylophilus (in sawdust), A. glabripennis, and H. bajulus (in wooden blocks). A concentration equilibrium for HCN (at 20 g m−3) between the fumigation chamber headspace and the center of the treated spruce blocks (100 × 100 × 120 mm) was reached after 48 h in the saturated atmosphere. A dose of 10 g m−3 in the center of the spruce blocks was reached for both saturated and non-saturated atmospheres after 24 h of fumigation. The wood tested absorbed approximately 40–45% of the HCN, until equilibrium was reached. The highest tested HCN dose (20 g m−3) led to 100% mortality of the A. glabripennis and H. bajulus larvae after less than 1 h of exposure. For 20 g m−3 and 1 h exposure the Ct product was <18.66 g*h/m3 for H. bajulus and <17.67 g*h/m3 for A. glabripennis. Hydrogen cyanide doses of 10 g m−3 and 20 g m−3 led to 100% B. xylophilus mortality in 40 and 18 h, respectively. For B. xylophilus the Ct product was <424.00 g*h/m3 for 20 °C and 10 g m−3 and <349.51 g*h/m3 for 25 °C and 20 g m−3. The initial results are promising in terms of establishing an alternative technology and protocol to MBr for timber fumigation. 相似文献

The gene encoding malate dehydrogenase (MDH) was overexpressed in a pflB ldhA double mutant of Escherichia coli, NZN111, for succinic acid production. With MDH overexpression, NZN111/pTrc99A-mdh restored the ability to metabolize glucose anaerobically and 0.55 g/L of succinic acid was produced from 3 g/L of glucose
in shake flask culture. When supplied with 10 g/L of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), the succinic acid yield of NZN111/pTrc99A-mdh reached 1.14 mol/mol glucose. Supply of NaHCO3 also improved succinic acid production by the control strain, NZN111/pTrc99A. Measurement of key enzymes activities revealed
that phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxykinase and PEP carboxylase in addition to MDH played important roles. Two-stage culture
of NZN111/pTrc99A-mdh was carried out in a 5-L bioreactor and 12.2 g/L of succinic acid were produced from 15.6 g/L of glucose. Fed-batch culture
was also performed, and the succinic acid concentration reached 31.9 g/L with a yield of 1.19 mol/mol glucose. 相似文献

Acetoin production by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was used as a model of product feedback to develop a strategy to enhance the production of acetoin. To enhance the resistance of B. amyloliquefaciens to acetoin, an acetoin-tolerant mutant E-11 was screened by using adaptive evolution with acetoin stress as the selection pressure. When compared with the parent FMME044, the mutant E-11 exhibited superior fermentation performance as follows: (1) the mutant E-11 exhibited increased tolerance to high concentration of acetoin, and the specific growth rate was 265.2% higher than that of the parent FMME044 in medium containing 80 g/L acetoin; (2) acetoin production by the mutant E-11 reached 71.5 g/L at 44 h when cultured in a 7-L fermentor with 173 g/L glucose, and the acetoin concentration and productivity of the mutant E-11 were 39.6% and 14.4% higher than those of the parent FMME044, respectively; (3) the unsaturated fatty acid contents in the mutant E-11 were 64.8%, 37.8%, and 18.4% higher than those in the parent FMME044 when cultured in 0, 40, and 60 g/L acetoin, whereas the saturated fatty acid contents in the mutant E-11 were 9.5%, 13.9%, and 14.1% lower than those in the parent FMME044, respectively. 相似文献
