海藻糖代谢途径相关基因及生物工程 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:5
海藻糖(Trehalose)是一种由两个葡萄糖分子通过α,α-1,l糖苷键连接的非还原性双糖。最早的记录是在19世纪初期作为黑麦的麦角菌的一种成分而被描述,后来发现海藻糖广泛存在于微生物、动物和植物体内,特别是在那些能抗脱水作用的生物中起着重要作用。这些特殊生物具有在脱水条件下存活多年的性质,包括所谓的“复苏植物”(Selaginella lepidophylla)、某些咸水虾、线虫及面包酵母等。当它们体内99%的水分被去掉之后,仍保持着能在获水后迅速复活的能力^[1]。研究表明,海藻糖对于生物抗逆具有重要的保护作用。海藻糖的应用研究因此得到了人们的广泛关注和重视,目前海藻糖已被用作酶、其它蛋白、生物制品甚至移植器官的保护剂。海藻糖作为生物体对抗环境胁迫的重要应激保护物质,在不同生物中存在多种合成和分解代谢途径,相关基因已相继被克隆和分析。海藻糖合成、分解及其调控是生物抗逆的重要机制,其相关基因的研究也是海藻糖生物工程的重要基础。 相似文献

Trehalose is an important nutraceutical of wide commercial interest in the food processing industry. Recently, crude glycerol was reported to be suitable for the production of trehalose using a food microbe, Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii, under static flask conditions. Similarly, enhanced trehalose yield was reported in an osmotically sensitive mutant of the same strain under anaerobic conditions. In the present study, an effort was made to achieve higher production of trehalose, propionic acid, and lactic acid using the parent and an osmotically sensitive mutant of P. freudenreichii subsp. shermanii under aeration conditions. Under aeration conditions (200 rpm in shake flasks and 30 % air saturation in a batch reactor), biomass was increased and approximately 98 % of crude glycerol was consumed. In the parent strain, a trehalose titre of 361 mg/l was achieved, whereas in the mutant strain a trehalose titre of 1.3 g/l was produced in shake flask conditions (200 rpm). In the mutant strain, propionic and lactic acid yields of 0.53 and 0.21 g/g of substrate were also achieved with crude glycerol. Similarly, in controlled batch reactor culturing conditions a final trehalose titre of approximately 1.56 g/l was achieved with the mutant strain using crude glycerol as the substrate. Enhanced production of trehalose using P. freudenreichii subsp. shermanii from waste under aeration conditions is reported here. Higher production of trehalose was not due to a higher yield of trehalose but to a higher final biomass concentration. 相似文献

Trehalose is a disaccharide with a wide range of applications in the food industry. We recently proposed a strategy for trehalose production based on improved strains of the gram-positive bacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum. This microorganism synthesizes trehalose through two major pathways, OtsBA and TreYZ, by using UDP-glucose and ADP-glucose, respectively, as the glucosyl donors. In this paper we describe improvement of the UDP-glucose supply through heterologous expression in C. glutamicum of the UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase gene from Escherichia coli, either expressed alone or coexpressed with the E. coli ots genes (galU otsBA synthetic operon). The impact of such expression on trehalose accumulation and excretion, glycogen accumulation, and the growth pattern of new recombinant strains is described. Expression of the galU otsBA synthetic operon resulted in a sixfold increase in the accumulated and excreted trehalose relative to that in a wild-type strain. Surprisingly, single expression of galU also resulted in an increase in the accumulated trehalose. This increase in trehalose synthesis was abolished upon deletion of the TreYZ pathway. These results proved that UDP-glucose has an important role not only in the OtsBA pathway but also in the TreYZ pathway. 相似文献

In nectar-feeding insects, sugars are an important source of fuel and energy storage. Here, we analyzed the haemolymph sugar
levels in foragers of the ant Camponotus rufipes trained to collect nectar from an artificial feeder, and their dependence on the metabolic rate during feeding. The main
sugar found was trehalose, followed by glucose and traces of fructose and sucrose. In foragers, trehalose level was independent
of their activity and metabolic rate while feeding. Carbohydrate deprivation of the colony had a strong effect on the haemolymph
sugar levels of workers, with a significant decrease in trehalose and glucose with increasing starvation. We also found a
correlation between haemolymph sugar levels and behavioral states, with immobile workers having higher trehalose and fructose
levels than active ones. It is suggested that under food deprivation, inside-nest workers initially stay completely immobile
as a strategy to save energy, and only become active and start to search for food when the trehalose levels decrease even
more. Based on a conservative estimation, well-fed ants could travel up to 500 m, or spend more than 20 h inactive at 25°C,
using only the energy provided by the haemolymph trehalose, before reaching the levels found in starved nest-mates. 相似文献

自海藻糖发现以来对其化学性质、生理功能、作用机理、代谢途径等已进行了较为深入的研究,其分子生物学的研究也渐渐兴起。研究表明海藻糖能提高生物体对干旱、低温、高温、pH、盐渍等逆境条件下的抗性。离体试验表明海藻糖能保护生物膜、蛋白质的结构并能保持逆境下的酶活性,同时,外源海藻糖同样对生物体有保护作用。由于海藻糖具有这些独特的生物学功能,它已在许多方面得以应用,可作为食品工业的一种添加剂和甜味剂,使干燥食品在得水后保持原有的色、香、味;也可作为医药工业的非特异性生物制品和生化药品保护剂,使其在常温下保存,从而降低运输与储存费用;另外,在农业研究中可利用现代分子生物技术培育表达海藻糖的转基因作物,提高农作物的抗旱、抗冻等抗逆性能。 相似文献

Dynamic sweetness perception of commercial food grade trehalose, sucrose solutions and their mixtures were studied for a wide range of concentrations. For gustatory reaction time (GRT), concentrations ranged from 2.3 to 13.8% for sucrose and up to 23.0% for trehalose. For time intensity (T-I) sucrose or trehalose solutions (concentration range 2.3–36.8%) and their combinations (23.0 and 36.8% total solids) were analyzed. Trehalose had bigger GRT along the studied range. Both sugars presented similar values for persistence and times of plateau and to maximum intensity, while a significant difference was observed in intensity and GRT at equal concentrations. Trehalose had longer persistence than sucrose in equi -sweet solutions. Overall sweetness profile of some sucrose solutions (i.e., 29.9% sucrose solution and 0.6 sucrose/trehalose ratio mixture at 36.8% total solids) were perceived as similar to mixtures of sucrose/trehalose or single trehalose solutions, which suggests the possibility of sugar replacement without completely modifying sweetness perception.
It has been suggested that trehalose may be a potential substitute for sucrose and other sugars used in food formulation because, although its chemical structure is very similar to that of sucrose, it is more stable at low pH and high temperatures. It is not involved in caramelization and does not participate in Maillard reaction with amino acids/proteins. In order to fully establish the potential of trehalose as a functional replacement of sucrose we have determined the sweetness dynamic profile (gustatory reaction time and time-intensity curves) of trehalose solutions and sucrose/trehalose solutions; this aspect is needed for adequately replacing (partially or totally) sucrose in food systems. 相似文献

Trehalose is a disaccharide with a wide range of applications in the food industry. We recently proposed a strategy for trehalose production based on a Corynebacterium glutamicum strain expressing the Escherichia coli enzyme UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (GalU). Biochemical network analysis suggest a further bottleneck for trehalose synthesis resulting from the coupling of phosphotransferase (PTS) mediated glucose uptake, and glucose catabolism in C. glutamicum. To overcome this coupling, we propose the expression of E. coli phosphoenolpyruvate synthetase (PpsA), in addition to GalU expression, in C. glutamicum. Although GalU expression improved trehalose synthesis in C. glutamicum, the simultaneous expression of GalU and PpsA did not result in a further increase in trehalose yield, but resulted in an increased catabolic rate of glucose, which could be ascribed to the operation of a futile cycle between phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate. The impact of GalU and PpsA expression on polysaccharide content, side product excretion and metabolic fluxes is discussed, as well as alternative ways to decouple glucose uptake and catabolism, in order to increase trehalose yield. 相似文献

Trehalose has many potential applications in biotechnology and the food industry due to its protective effect against environmental stress. Our work explores microbiological production methods based on the capacity of Corynebacterium glutamicum to excrete trehalose. We address here raising trehalose productivity through homologous overexpression of maltooligosyltrehalose synthase and the maltooligosyltrehalose trehalohydrolase genes. In addition, heterologous expression of the UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase gene from Escherichia coli improved the supply of glycogen. Gene expression effects were tested on enzymatic activities and intracellular glycogen content, as well as on accumulated and excreted trehalose. Overexpression of the treY gene and the treY/treZ synthetic operon significantly increased maltooligosyltrehalose synthase activity, the rate-limiting step, and improved the specific productivity and the final titer of trehalose. Furthermore, a strong decrease was noted in glycogen accumulation. Expression of galU/treY and galU/treYZ synthetic operons showed a partial recovery in the intracellular glycogen levels and a significant improvement in both intra- and extracellular trehalose content. 相似文献

Trehalose (α-d-glucopyranosyl α-d-glucopyranoside) is an important non-reducing disaccharide used in the food industry due to its mild sweetness (45% that
of sucrose), low cariogenicity, high glass transition temperature, low hygroscopicity, and protein protection properties.
In this study, we accomplished the production of trehalose from sucrose as a sole substrate using a novel dual-enzyme system,
in which amylosucrase (ASase) and maltooligosyltrehalose synthase-trehalohydrolase (MTSH) fusion enzyme were employed. The
biotransformation of sucrose to trehalose was confirmed by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) analysis.
Trehalose was successfully produced by both simultaneous and sequential methods by using ASase and MTSH. A higher trehalose
production yield (3.15 ± 0.83 mM trehalose/20 mM sucrose) was observed in the sequential method than the simultaneous method
(1.43 ± 0.14 mM trehalose/20 mM sucrose), indicating that the production of maltooligosaccharides from sucrose by ASase was
an important step in the biosynthesis of trehalose. 相似文献
