Acetoin is widely used in food and cosmetics industries as a taste and fragrance enhancer. To produce (R)-acetoin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, acetoin biosynthetic genes encoding α-acetolactate synthase (AlsS) and α-acetolactate decarboxylase (AlsD) from Bacillus subtilis and water-forming NADH oxidase (NoxE) from Lactococcus lactis were integrated into delta-sequences in JHY605 strain, where the production of ethanol, glycerol, and (R,R)-2,3-butanediol (BDO) was largely eliminated. We further improved acetoin production by increasing acetoin tolerance by adaptive laboratory evolution, and eliminating other byproducts including meso-2,3-BDO and 2,3-dimethylglycerate, a newly identified byproduct. Ara1, Ypr1, and Ymr226c (named Ora1) were identified as (S)-alcohol-forming reductases, which can reduce (R)-acetoin to meso-2,3-BDO in vitro. However, only Ara1 and Ypr1 contributed to meso-2,3-BDO production in vivo. We elucidate that Ora1, having a substrate preference for (S)-acetoin, reduces (S)-α-acetolactate to 2,3-dimethylglycerate, thus competing with AlsD-mediated (R)-acetoin production. By deleting ARA1, YPR1, and ORA1, 101.3 g/L of (R)-acetoin was produced with a high yield (96% of the maximum theoretical yield) and high stereospecificity (98.2%). 相似文献

Production of highly pure (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol ((2S,3S)-2,3-BD) and (3S)-acetoin ((3S)-AC) in high concentrations is desirable but difficult to achieve. In the present study, glucose was first transformed to a mixture of (2S,3S)-2,3-BD and meso-2,3-BD by resting cells of Klebsiella pneumoniae CICC 10011, followed by biocatalytic resolution of the mixture by resting cells of Bacillus subtilis 168. meso-2,3-BD was transformed to (3S)-AC, leaving (2S,3S)-2,3-BD in the reaction medium. Using this approach, 12.5 g l(-1) (2S,3S)-2,3-BD and 56.7 g l(-1) (3S)-AC were produced. Stereoisomeric purity of (2S,3S)-2,3-BD and enantiomeric excess of (3S)-AC was 96.9 and 96.2%, respectively. 相似文献

The meso-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (meso-BDH) from S. marcescens H30 is responsible for converting acetoin into 2,3-butanediol during sugar fermentation. Inactivation of the meso-BDH encoded by budC gene does not completely abolish 2,3-butanediol production, which suggests that another similar enzyme involved in 2,3-butanediol formation exists in S. marcescens H30. In the present study, a glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH) encoded by gldA gene from S. marcescens H30 was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), purified and characterized for its properties. In vitro conversion indicated that the purified GDH could catalyze the interconversion of (3S)-acetoin/meso-2,3-butanediol and (3R)-acetoin/(2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol. (2S,3S)-2,3-Butanediol was not a substrate for the GDH at all. Kinetic parameters of the GDH enzyme showed lower K m value and higher catalytic efficiency for (3S/3R)-acetoin in comparison to those for (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol and meso-2,3-butanediol, implying its physiological role in favor of 2,3-butanediol formation. Maximum activity for reduction of (3S/3R)-acetoin and oxidations of meso-2,3-butanediol and glycerol was observed at pH 8.0, while it was pH 7.0 for diacetyl reduction. The enzyme exhibited relative high thermotolerance with optimum temperature of 60 °C in the oxidation–reduction reactions. Over 60 % of maximum activity was retained at 70 °C. Additionally, the GDH activity was significantly enhanced for meso-2,3-BD oxidation in the presence of Fe2+ and for (3S/3R)-acetoin reduction in the presence of Mn2+, while several cations inhibited its activity, particularly Fe2+ and Fe3+ for (3S/3R)-acetoin reduction. The properties provided potential application for single configuration production of acetoin and 2,3-butanediol . 相似文献

Klebsiella pneumoniae is known to produce meso-2,3-butanediol and 2S,3S-butanediol, whereas 2R,3R-butanediol was detected in the culture broth of K. pneumoniae CGMCC 1.6366. The ratio of 2R,3R-butanediol to all isomers obtained using glycerol as the carbon source was higher than that obtained using glucose as the carbon source. Therefore, enzymes involved in glycerol metabolism are likely related to 2R,3R-butanediol formation. In vitro reactions show that glycerol dehydrogenase catalyzes the stereospecific conversion of R-acetoin to 2R,3R-butanediol and S-acetoin to meso-2,3-butanediol. Butanediol dehydrogenase exhibits high (S)-enantioselectivity in ketone reduction. Genes encoding glycerol dehydrogenase, α-acetolactate decarboxylase, and butanediol dehydrogenase were individually disrupted in K. pneumoniae CGMCC 1.6366, and the 2,3-butanediol synthesis characteristics of these mutants were investigated. K. pneumoniae ΔdhaD lost the ability to synthesize 2R,3R-butanediol. K. pneumoniae ΔbudA showed reduced 2R,3R-butanediol synthesis. However, K. pneumoniae ΔbudC produced a high level of 2R,3R-butanediol, and R-acetoin was accumulated in the broth. The metabolic characteristics of these mutants and in vitro experiment results demonstrated the mechanism of the 2,3-butanediol stereoisomer synthesis pathway. Glycerol dehydrogenase, encoded by dhaD, exhibited 2R,3R-butanediol dehydrogenase activity and was responsible for 2R,3R-butanediol synthesis from R-acetoin. This enzyme also contributed to meso-2,3-butanediol synthesis from S-acetoin. Butanediol dehydrogenase, encoded by budC, was the only enzyme that catalyzed the conversion of diacetyl to S-acetoin and further to 2S,3S-butanediol. 相似文献

Klebsiella pneumoniae is a 2,3-butanediol producer, and R-acetoin is an intermediate of 2,3-butanediol production. R-acetoin accumulation and dissimilation in K. pneumoniae was studied here. A budC mutant, which has lost 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase activity, accumulated high levels of R-acetoin in culture broth. However, after glucose was exhausted, the accumulated R-acetoin could be reused by the cells as a carbon source. Acetoin dehydrogenase enzyme system, encoded by acoABCD, was responsible for R-acetoin dissimilation. acoABCD mutants lost the ability to grow on acetoin as the sole carbon source, and the acetoin accumulated could not be dissimilated. However, in the presence of another carbon source, the acetoin accumulated in broth of acoABCD mutants was converted to 2,3-butanediol. Parameters of R-acetoin production by budC mutants were optimized in batch culture. Aerobic culture and mildly acidic conditions (pH 6–6.5) favored R-acetoin accumulation. At the optimized conditions, in fed-batch fermentation, 62.3 g/L R-acetoin was produced by budC and acoABCD double mutant in 57 h culture, with an optical purity of 98.0 %, and a substrate conversion ratio of 28.7 %. 相似文献

2,3-Butanediol is a promising valuable chemical that can be used in various areas as a liquid fuel and a platform chemical. Here, 2,3-butanediol production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was improved stepwise by eliminating byproduct formation and redox rebalancing. By introducing heterologous 2,3-butanediol biosynthetic pathway and deleting competing pathways producing ethanol and glycerol, metabolic flux was successfully redirected to 2,3-butanediol. In addition, the resulting redox cofactor imbalance was restored by overexpressing water-forming NADH oxidase (NoxE) from Lactococcus lactis. In a flask fed-batch fermentation with optimized conditions, the engineered adh1Δadh2Δadh3Δadh4Δadh5Δgpd1Δgpd2Δ strain overexpressing Bacillus subtilis α-acetolactate synthase (AlsS) and α-acetolactate decarboxylase (AlsD), S. cerevisiae 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (Bdh1), and L. lactis NoxE from a single multigene-expression vector produced 72.9 g/L 2,3-butanediol with the highest yield (0.41 g/g glucose) and productivity (1.43 g/(L·h)) ever reported in S. cerevisiae. 相似文献

NAD-dependent butanediol dehydrogenase (Bdh1p) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae reversibly transforms acetoin to 2,3-butanediol in a stereospecific manner. Deletion of BDH1 resulted in an accumulation of acetoin and a diminution of 2,3-butanediol in two S. cerevisiae strains under two different growth conditions. The concentrations of (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol are mostly dependent on Bdh1p activity, while those of (meso)-2,3-butanediol are also influenced by the activity of NADP(H)-dependent oxidoreductases. One of them has been purified and shown to be d-arabinose dehydrogenase (Ara1p), which converts (R/S)-acetoin to meso-2,3-butanediol and (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol. Deletion of BDH2, a gene adjacent to BDH1, whose encoded protein is 51% identical to Bdh1p, does not significantly alter the levels of acetoin or 2,3-butanediol in comparison to the wild-type strain. Furthermore, we have expressed Bdh2p with a histidine tag and have shown it to be inactive toward 2,3-butanediol. A whole-genome expression analysis with microarrays demonstrates that BDH1 and BDH2 are reciprocally regulated.Acetoin and 2,3-butanediol are minor products generated by Saccharomyces cerevisiae during alcohol fermentation. Their sensory impacts on wine are poorly documented. Acetoin may affect the wine bouquet, although its perception threshold in wine is relatively high, around 150 mg/liter (21, 31). On the other hand, 2,3-butanediol is odorless (33) and cannot be expected to appreciably affect the sensory quality of wine. However, the compound may contribute to the wine body (28).Acetaldehyde, pyruvate, and α-acetolactate are the main precursors of acetoin in S. cerevisiae. Acetoin can be formed from acetaldehyde and/or pyruvate through an anomalous reaction of pyruvate decarboxylase. Thus, although its main activity is to irreversibly decarboxylate pyruvate to acetaldehyde, it can also catalyze carbon-carbon bond formation, yielding acetoin from pyruvate and/or acetaldehyde (2, 4). In addition, α-acetolactate would produce acetoin through its nonenzymatic decarboxylation to diacetyl and subsequent reduction to acetoin through the action of several NADH- and NADPH-dependent oxidoreductases (12). However, the situation is more complex in wine fermentation, where other yeasts and bacteria display supplementary enzymatic activities capable of producing both acetoin and 2,3-butanediol (1, 27).We have previously characterized a butanediol dehydrogenase (Bdh1p) as a medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (MDR) that can reversibly transform R-acetoin and S-acetoin to (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol and meso-2,3-butanediol, respectively, in a NAD(H)-dependent reaction (10). BDH2 is a gene adjacent to BDH1 whose uncharacterized protein product (Bdh2p) shares 51% sequence identity with Bdh1p. To evaluate the in vivo roles of Bdh1p and Bdh2p, we compared the levels of several extracellular metabolites in cultures of wild-type and deficient strains. The results show that, although Bdh1p is the main enzyme in 2,3-butanediol production [essentially the (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol stereoisomer], some meso-2,3-butanediol is still produced by the bdh1Δ strains. We have characterized Ara1p as an oxidoreductase that can reduce racemic acetoin to meso-2,3-butanediol and (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol in the presence of NADPH.Furthermore, we have overexpressed Bdh2p with a histidine tag at its carboxyl terminus and have shown it to be inactive toward acetoin and 2,3-butanediol. A microarray study indicated that BDH1 and BDH2 are reciprocally regulated under the conditions studied. 相似文献

Diacetyl, a highly valuable product that is extensively used as an ingredient of food, tobacco, and daily chemicals such as perfumes, can be produced from the nonenzymatic oxidative decarboxylation of α-acetolactate during bacterial fermentation and converted to acetoin and 2,3-butanediol by 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase. In the present study, Bacillus sp. DL01, which gives high acetoin production, was metabolically engineered to improve diacetyl production. After the deletion of α-acetolactate decarboxylase (ALDC)-encoding gene (alsD) by homologous recombination, the engineered strain, named Bacillus sp. DL01-ΔalsD, lost ALDC activity and produced 1.53 g/L diacetyl without acetoin and 2,3-butanediol accumulation. The channeling of carbon flux into diacetyl biosynthetic pathway was amplified by an overexpressed α-acetolactate synthase (ALS)-encoding gene (alsS) in Bacillus sp. DL01-ΔalsD-alsS, which produced 4.02 g/L α-acetolactate and 1.94 g/L diacetyl, and the conversion from α-acetolactate to diacetyl was increased by 1-fold after 20 mM Fe3+ was added to the fermentation medium. A titer of 8.69 g/L diacetyl, the highest reported diacetyl production, was achieved by fed-batch fermentation in optimal conditions using the metabolically engineered strain of Bacillus sp. DL01-ΔalsD-alsS. These results are of great importance as a new method for the efficient production of diacetyl by food-safe bacteria. 相似文献

A NAD-dependent (R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.4), selectively catalyzing the oxidation at the (R)-center of 2,3-butanediol irrespective of the absolute configuration of the other carbinol center, was isolated from cell extracts of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Purification was achieved by means of streptomycin sulfate treatment, Sephadex G-25 filtration, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography, affinity chromatography on Matrex Gel Blue A and Superose 6 prep grade chromatography leading to a 70-fold enrichment of the specific activity with 44% yield. Analysis of chiral products was carried out by gas chromatographic methods via pre-chromatographic derivatization and resolution of corresponding diasteromeric derivatives. The enzyme was capable to reduce irreversibly diacetyl (2,3-butanediol) to (R)-acetoin (3-hydroxy-2-butanone) and in a subsequent reaction reversibly to (R,R)-2,3-butanediol using NADH as coenzyme. 1-Hydroxy-2-ketones and C5-acyloins were also accepted as substrates, whereas the enzyme was inactive towards the reduction of acetone and dihydroxyacetone. The relative molecular mass (M
r) of the enzyme was estimated as 140 000 by means of gel filtration. On SDS-polyacrylamide gel the protein decomposed into 4 (identical) subunits of M
r 35 000. Optimum pH was 6.7 for the reduction of acetoin to 2,3-butanediol and 7.2 for the reverse reaction.Abbreviations GC-MS

Using a conserved sequence motif, a new gene (YAL060W) of the MDR family has been identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The expressed protein was a stereoespecific (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (BDH). The best substrates were (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol for the oxidation and (3R/3S)-acetoin and 1-hydroxy-2-propanone for the reduction reactions. The enzyme is extremely specific for NAD(H) as cofactor, probably because the presence of Glu223 in the cofactor binding site, instead of the highly conserved Asp223. BDH is inhibited competitively by 4-methylpyrazole with a K(i) of 34 microM. Yeast could grow on 2,3-butanediol or acetoin as a sole energy and carbon sources, and a 3.6-fold increase in BDH activity was observed when cells were grown in 2,3-butanediol, suggesting a role of the enzyme in 2,3-butanediol metabolism. However, the disruption of the YAL060W gene was not lethal for the yeast under laboratory conditions, and the disrupted strain could also grow in 2,3-butanediol and acetoin. This suggests that other enzymes, in addition to BDH, can also metabolize 2,3-butanediol in yeast. 相似文献

The mechanism of the formation of 2,3-butanediol isomers in Bacillus polymyxa was studied. We proposed a new model with NADPH-linked diacetyl reductase (S-acetoin forming) and R(−)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase. The two enzymes were separated by Blue Sepharose CL-6B and their stereospecificities were identified using all of the pure isomers of 2,3-butanediol (R(−), S(+)m, and meso), acetoin (R(−) and S(+)) and the separation and measurement of these isomers. The presence of acetoin or butanediol racemase was not confirmed in our experiments. 相似文献

The completion of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome project in 1996 showed that almost 60% of the potential open reading frames of the genome had no experimentally determined function. Using a conserved sequence motif present in the zinc-containing medium-chain alcohol dehydrogenases, we found several potential alcohol dehydrogenase genes with no defined function. One of these, YAL060W, was overexpressed using a multicopy inducible vector, and its protein product was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme was found to be a homodimer that, in the presence of NAD(+), but not of NADP, could catalyze the stereospecific oxidation of (2R,3R)-2, 3-butanediol (K(m) = 14 mm, k(cat) = 78,000 min(-)(1)) and meso-butanediol (K(m) = 65 mm, k(cat) = 46,000 min(-)(1)) to (3R)-acetoin and (3S)-acetoin, respectively. It was unable, however, to further oxidize these acetoins to diacetyl. In the presence of NADH, it could catalyze the stereospecific reduction of racemic acetoin ((3R/3S)- acetoin; K(m) = 4.5 mm, k(cat) = 98,000 min(-)(1)) to (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol and meso-butanediol, respectively. The substrate stereospecificity was determined by analysis of products by gas-liquid chromatography. The YAL060W gene product can therefore be classified as an NAD-dependent (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (BDH). S. cerevisiae could grow on 2,3-butanediol as the sole carbon and energy source. Under these conditions, a 3. 5-fold increase in (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase activity was observed in the total cell extracts. The isoelectric focusing pattern of the induced enzyme coincided with that of the pure BDH (pI 6.9). The disruption of the YAL060W gene was not lethal for the yeast under laboratory conditions. The disrupted strain could also grow on 2,3-butanediol, although attaining a lesser cell density than the wild-type strain. Taking into consideration the substrate specificity of the YAL060W gene product, we propose the name of BDH for this gene. The corresponding enzyme is the first eukaryotic (2R, 3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase characterized of the medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family. 相似文献

Rhodococcus erythropolis WZ010 was capable of producing optically pure (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol in alcoholic fermentation. The gene encoding an acetoin(diacetyl) reductase from R. erythropolis WZ010 (ReADR) was cloned, overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and subsequently purified by Ni-affinity chromatography. ReADR in the native form appeared to be a homodimer with a calculated subunit size of 26,864, belonging to the family of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductases. The enzyme accepted a broad range of substrates including aliphatic and aryl alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones. It exhibited remarkable tolerance to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and retained 53.6 % of the initial activity after 4 h incubation with 30 % (v/v) DMSO. The enzyme displayed absolute stereospecificity in the reduction of diacetyl to (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol via (S)-acetoin. The optimal pH and temperature for diacetyl reduction were pH 7.0 and 30 °C, whereas those for (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol oxidation were pH 9.5 and 25 °C. Under the optimized conditions, the activity of diacetyl reduction was 11.9-fold higher than that of (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol oxidation. Kinetic parameters of the enzyme showed lower K m values and higher catalytic efficiency for diacetyl and NADH in comparison to those for (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol and NAD+, suggesting its physiological role in favor of (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol formation. Interestingly, the enzyme showed higher catalytic efficiency for (S)-1-phenylethanol oxidation than that for acetophenone reduction. ReADR-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of diacetyl was coupled with stereoselective oxidation of 1-phenylethanol, which simultaneously formed both (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol and (R)-1-phenylethanol in great conversions and enantiomeric excess values. 相似文献

The present work aims to block 2,3-butanediol synthesis in acetoin fermentation of Bacillus subtilis. First, we constructed a recombinant strain BS168D by deleting the 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase gene bdhA of the B. subtilis168, and there was almost no 2,3-butanediol production in 20?g/L of glucose media. The acetoin yield of BS168D reached 6.61?g/L, which was about 1.5 times higher than that of the control B. subtilis168 (4.47?g/L). Then, when the glucose concentration was increased to 100?g/L, the acetoin yield reached 24.6?g/L, but 2.4?g/L of 2,3-butanediol was detected at the end of fermentation. The analysis of 2,3-butanediol chiral structure indicated that the main 2,3-butanediol production of BS168D was meso-2,3-butanediol, and the bdhA gene was only responsible for (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol synthesis. Therefore, we speculated that there may exit another pathway relating to the meso-2,3-butanediol synthesis in the B. subtilis. In addition, the results of low oxygen condition fermentation showed that deletion of bdhA gene successfully blocked the reversible transformation between acetoin and 2,3-butanediol and eliminated the effect of dissolved oxygen on the transformation. 相似文献

The -acetolactate synthase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris was purified to homogeneity in SDS-PAGE. The enzyme is a trimer of 3×55,000 Da. It was unstable but could be preserved by addition of pyruvate and thiamine pyrophosphate in the buffer. The enzyme exhibits Michaelis-Menten kinetics, and K
m for pyruvate is 10 mM. Three intermediates in glucose metabolism (ATP, 3-phosphoglycerate, and phosphoenolpyruvate) exhibit a noncompetitive inhibition towards the enzyme. This enzyme does not require any divalent metal ion for activity. The -acetolactate synthase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris is not inhibited by the branched-chain amino acids (valine, leucine, and isoleucine), is FAD independent, and displays an optimal activity at pH 5.3. Therefore, it can be concluded that the purified enzyme belongs to the catabolic -acetolactate synthases, involved in the 2,3-butanediol pathway but not in branchedchain amino acids biosynthesis. 相似文献

Glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH) is an important polyol dehydrogenase for glycerol metabolism in diverse microorganisms and for value-added utilization of glycerol in the industry. Two GDHs from Klebsiella pneumoniae, DhaD and GldA, were expressed in Escherichia coli, purified and characterized for substrate specificity and kinetic parameters. Both DhaD and GldA could catalyze the interconversion of (3R)-acetoin/(2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol or (3S)-acetoin/meso-2,3-butanediol, in addition to glycerol oxidation. Although purified GldA appeared more active than DhaD, in vivo inactivation and quantitation of their respective mRNAs indicate that dhaD is highly induced by glycerol and plays a dual role in glycerol metabolism and 2,3-butanediol formation. Complementation in K. pneumoniae further confirmed the dual role of DhaD. Promiscuity of DhaD may have vital physiological consequences for K. pneumoniae growing on glycerol, which include balancing the intracellular NADH/NAD+ ratio, preventing acidification, and storing carbon and energy. According to the kinetic response of DhaD to modified NADH concentrations, DhaD appears to show positive homotropic interaction with NADH, suggesting that the physiological role could be regulated by intracellular NADH levels. The co-existence of two functional GDH enzymes might be due to a gene duplication event. We propose that whereas DhaD is specialized for glycerol utilization, GldA plays a role in backup compensation and can turn into a more proficient catalyst to promote a survival advantage to the organism. Revelation of the dual role of DhaD could further the understanding of mechanisms responsible for enzyme evolution through promiscuity, and guide metabolic engineering methods of glycerol metabolism. 相似文献

Production of 2,3-Butanediol from Sucrose by a <Emphasis Type="Italic">Klebsiella</Emphasis> Species

Chemical 2,3-butanediol is an important platform compound possessing diverse industrial applications. So far, it is mainly produced by using petrochemical feedstock which is associated with high cost and adverse environmental impacts. Hence, finding alternative routes (e.g., via fermentation using renewable carbon sources) to produce 2,3-butanediol are urgently needed. In this study, we report a wild-type Klebsiella sp. strain XRM21, which is capable of producing 2,3-butanediol from a wide variety of carbon sources including glucose, sucrose, xylose, and glycerol. Among them, fermentation of sucrose leads to the highest production of 2,3-butanediol. To maximize the production of 2,3-butanediol, fermentation conditions were first optimized for strain XMR21 by using response surface methodology (RSM) in batch reactors. Subsequently, a fed-batch fermentation strategy was designed based on the optimized parameters, where 91.2 g/L of 2,3-butanediol could be produced from substrate sucrose dosing in 100 g/L for three times. Moreover, random mutagenesis of stain XMR21 resulted in a highly productive mutant strain, capable of producing 119.4 and 22.5 g/L of 2,3-butanediol and ethanol under optimized fed-batch fermentation process within 65 h with a total productivity of 2.18 g/L/h, which is comparable to the reported highest 2,3-butanediol concentration produced by previous strains. This study provides a potential strategy to produce industrially important 2,3-butanediol from low-cost sucrose. 相似文献

Butanediol dehydrogenase (Bdh1p) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae belongs to the superfamily of the medium-chain dehydrogenases and reductases and converts reversibly R-acetoin and S-acetoin to (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol and meso-2,3-butanediol, respectively. It is specific for NAD(H) as a coenzyme, and it is the main enzyme involved in the last metabolic step leading to (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol in yeast. In this study, we have used the activity of Bdh1p in different forms—purified enzyme, yeast extracts, permeabilized yeast cells, and as a fusion protein (with yeast formate dehydrogenase, Fdh1p)—to transform several vicinal diketones to the corresponding diols. We have also developed a new variant of the delitto perfetto methodology to place BDH1 under the control of the GAL1 promoter, resulting in a yeast strain that overexpresses butanediol dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase activities in the presence of galactose and regenerates NADH in the presence of formate. While the use of purified Bdh1p allows the synthesis of enantiopure (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol, (2R,3R)-2,3-pentanediol, (2R,3R)-2,3-hexanediol, and (3R,4R)-3,4-hexanediol, the use of the engineered strain (as an extract or as permeabilized cells) yields mixtures of the diols. The production of pure diol stereoisomers has also been achieved by means of a chimeric fusion protein combining Fdh1p and Bdh1p. Finally, we have determined the selectivity of Bdh1p toward the oxidation/reduction of the hydroxyl/ketone groups from (2R,3R)-2,3-pentanediol/2,3-pentanedione and (2R,3R)-2,3-hexanediol/2,3-hexanedione. In conclusion, Bdh1p is an enzyme with biotechnological interest that can be used to synthesize chiral building blocks. A scheme of the favored pathway with the corresponding intermediates is proposed for the Bdh1p reaction. 相似文献
