Summary A recombinantEscherichia coli strain harboring the PHB biosynthesis genes fromAlcaligenes eutrophus was used to produce poly--hydroxybutyrate (PHB) by pH-stat fedbatch culture. Initial glucose concentration for optimal growth was found to be 20g/L from a series of flask cultures. A final PHB concentration of 88.8 g/L could be obtained after 42 hrs of cultivation. 相似文献

Influences of the control of glucose and oxygen concentrations on cell growth and poly--hydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulation in Alcaligenes eutrophus were studied. Glucose affects both biosynthesis and glycolysis directly and the other pathways indirectly. PHB accumulation could also be stimulated under oxygen limitation conditions, but the final PHB content within the cells was less than in the case of nitrogen limitation. When the culture was shifted from the PHB accumulation state to balanced growth conditions, PHB degradation occurred in the cells. The cell growth was inhibited by high PHB content within the cells. 相似文献

Summary Fluorescence from poly--hydroxybutyrate (PHB) inclusions inside Azotobacter vinelandii UWD cells stained with Nile blue A was shown to be proportional to PHB concentration. The intensity of the fluorescence was greatest in native, fluid inclusions and was the least in extracted, crystallized granules. However, isolated air-dried PHB granules also were proportionally stained with Nile blue A. The results show that Nile blue A can be used in the quantitative determination of PHB in a variety of cells. 相似文献

The dynamics of accumulation of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and the activities of key enzymes of PHB metabolism (-ketothiolase, acetoacetyl-CoA reductase, PHB synthase, D-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, and PHB depolymerase) in the hydrogen bacterium Ralstonia eutropha B5786 were studied under various conditions of carbon nutrition and substrate availability. The highest activities of -ketothiolase, acetoacetyl-CoA reductase, and PHB synthase were recorded during acceleration of PHB synthesis. The activities of enzymes catalyzing PHB depolymerization (PHB depolymerase and D-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase) were low, being expressed only upon stimulated endogenous PHB degradation. The change of carbon source (CO2 or fructose) did not affect the time course of the enzyme activity significantly. 相似文献

Summary The characteristics of poly--hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production from glucose or alcoholic distillery wastewater by isolated Actinobacillus sp. EL-9 were investigated. PHB production was not dependent on nutrients limitation in Actinobacillus sp. EL-9. The PHB accumulation of Actibobacillus sp. EL-9 followed a growth-associated type where the cell growth and PHB accumulation were carried out simultaneously. The Actinobacillus sp. EL-9 was shown to synthesize and accumulate PHB from alcoholic distillery wastewater during growth. The best growth and PHB production were obtained with enzyme-hydrolyzed alcoholic distillery wastewater. 相似文献

Comamonas testosteroni has been found to produce poly(-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) during its growth on naphthalene. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis confirmed it as a homopolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate. Oxygen and essential nutrient limitation other than carbon source play a major role in maximum PHB production. Nitrogen limitation was found to have a profound effect, with 0.2 g ammonium nitrate/l optimum for PHB production. Both aeration and iron were found to be essential for growth and PHB accumulation. Ferric chloride at 0.04 g/l concentration was found to be optimum for PHB accumulation. Phosphate source variation showed no significant effect. Using naphthalene as a sole carbon source in optimized Bushnell Haas medium, 85% of the dry cell mass was extracted as chloroform-soluble PHB. 相似文献

The enzyme activity synthesizing poly--hydroxybutyrate (PHB) was mainly localized in the PHB-containing particulate fraction ofZoogloea ramigera I-16-M, when it grew flocculatedly in a medium supplemented with glucose. On the other hand, the enzyme activity remained in the soluble fraction, when the bacterium grew dispersedly in a glucose-starved medium.The soluble PHB synthase activity became associated with the particulate fraction as PHB synthesis was initiated on the addition of glucose to the dispersed culture. Conversely, the enzyme activity was released from the PHB-containing granules to the soluble fraction when the flocculated culture was kept incubated without supplementing the medium with glucose.PHB synthase was also incorporated into the newly formed PHB fraction when partially purified soluble PHB synthase was incubated withd(-)--hydroxybutyryl CoA in vitro.Although attempts to solubilize the particulate enzyme were unsuccessful, and the soluble enzyme became extremely unstable in advanced stages of purification, both PHB synthases had the same strict substrate specificity ford(-)--hydroxybutyryl CoA, and showed the same pH optimum at 7.0.Non-Standard Abbreviations PHB

Summary Three transformants of Alcaligenes eutrophus harbouring the recombinant plasmids containing phbCAB, phbAB, and phbC genes, were cultivated to investigate the effect of cloned genes on cell growth and poly--hydroxybutyrate accumulation. Both in the nutrient-rich and minimal media, the increased PHB accumulation in the transformants was observed compared to the parent strain, and this was the result of the increased enzyme activities in the transformants. Low carbon concentration and high C/N molar ratio favored higher PHB accumulations in the transformants. The transformant harbouring the phbC gene showed the highest PHB accumulation, which indicated that PHB synthase was the most critical enzyme for PHB biosynthesis in the transformant. 相似文献

A new bacterial strain, isolated from groundwater contaminated with explosives, was characterized as a pink-pigmented facultative methylotroph, affiliated to the genus Methylobacterium. The bacterial isolate designated as strain GW2 was found capable of producing the homopolymer poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) from various carbon sources such as methanol, ethanol, and succinate. Methanol acted as the best substrate for the production of PHB reaching 40 % w/w dry biomass. PHB accumulation was observed to be a growth-associated process, so that there was no need for two-step fermentation. Optimal growth occurred at 0.5 % (v/v) methanol concentration, and growth was strongly inhibited at concentration above 2 % (v/v). Methylobacterium sp. strain GW2 was also able to accumulate the copolyester poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-poly-3-hydroxyvalerate (PHB/HV) when valeric acid was supplied as an auxiliary carbon source to methanol. After 66 h, a copolymer content of 30 % (w/w) was achieved with a PHB to PHV ratio of 1:2. Biopolymers produced by strain GW2 had an average molecular weight ranging from 229,350 to 233,050 Da for homopolymer PHB and from 362,430 to 411,300 Da for the copolymer PHB/HV. 相似文献

Summary We present a rapid method for the direct analysis of poly--hydroxybutyrate (PHB) content in the soil bacteria Alcaligenes eutrophus. PHB from the fresh cells was converted by sulfuric acid to the crotonic acid and measured by capillary isotachophoresis after the neutralization by CaCO3. The method can be used for rapid and routine monitoring of the fermentation processes in samples containing 0.001 to 20 mg of PHB. 相似文献
