Novel mutations in the pheA gene of Escherichia coli K-12 which result in highly feedback inhibition-resistant variants of chorismate mutase/prephenate dehydratase.

The bifunctional enzyme chorismate mutase/prephenate dehydratase (EC 5.4.99.5/4.2.1.51), which is encoded by the pheA gene of Escherichia coli K-12, is subject to strong feedback inhibition by L-phenylalanine. Inhibition of the prephenate dehydratase activity is almost complete at concentrations of L-phenylalanine greater than 1 mM. The pheA gene was cloned, and the promoter region was modified to enable constitutive expression of the gene on plasmid pJN302. As a preliminary to sequence analysis, a small DNA insertion at codon 338 of the pheA gene unexpectedly resulted in a partial loss of prephenate dehydratase feedback inhibition. Four other mutations in the pheA gene were identified following nitrous acid treatment of pJN302 and selection of E. coli transformants that were resistant to the toxic phenylalanine analog beta-2-thienylalanine. Each of the four mutations was located within codons 304 to 310 of the pheA gene and generated either a substitution or an in-frame deletion. The mutations led to activation of both enzymatic activities at low phenylalanine concentrations, and three of the resulting enzyme variants displayed almost complete resistance to feedback inhibition of prephenate dehydratase by phenylalanine concentrations up to 200 mM. In all four cases the mutations mapped in a region of the enzyme that has not been implicated previously in feedback inhibition sensitivity of the enzyme.

Defective regulation of the phenylalanine biosynthetic operon in mutants of the phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase operon.

Among mutants of Escherichia coli resistant to p-fluorophenylalanine (PFP) were some with constitutive expression of the phenylalanine biosynthetic operon (the pheA operon). This operon is repressed in the wild type by phenylalanine. The mutation in three of these mutants mapped in the aroH-aroD region of the E. coli chromosome at 37 min. A plasmid bearing wild-type DNA from this region restored p-fluorophenylalanine sensitivity and wild-type repression of the pheA operon. Analysis of subclones of this plasmid and comparison of its restriction map with published maps indicated that the mutations affecting regulation of the pheA operon lie in the structural genes for phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase, pheST, probably in pheS. Thus, the pheST operon has a role in the regulation of phenylalanine biosynthesis, the most likely being that wild-type phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase maintains a sufficient intracellular concentration of Phe-tRNA(Phe) for attenuation of the pheA operon in the presence of phenylalanine. A revised gene order for the 37-min region of the chromosome is reported. Read clockwise, the order is aroD, aroH, pheT, and pheS.     

苯丙氨酸合成的关键酶基因aroG与pheA串联表达

aroG和pheA是与苯丙氨酸合成有关的两个重要基因。在大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)中,aroG基因编码脱氧阿拉伯糖型庚酮糖磷酸合酶(DS),该酶催化由糖代谢中心途径分流出来的磷酸烯醇丙酮酸(PEP)和赤鲜糖4磷酸(E4P)缩合形成脱氧阿拉伯糖型庚酮糖磷酸(DAHP)的反应;pheA基因编码一个双功能酶蛋白,它同时催化两步关键反应,即具有分枝酸变位酶(CM)和预苯酸脱水(PD)的两种功能。采用PCR技术分别从两个不同品系的大肠杆菌染色体DNA中扩增到aroG和pheA。当这两个基因串联在一个质粒上导入大肠杆菌P2392中进行表达时,它们编码的酶DS、CM和PD活性分别提高43、44和22倍;导入短杆菌(Brevibacterium)2731中表达时,相应的酶活性分别提高123、23和56倍。两基因的串联表达能大幅度地提高工程菌株的苯丙氨酸发酵产量。     

Regulatory gene of phenylalanine biosynthesis (pheR) in Salmonella typhimurium

4-Fluorophenylalanine-resistant mutants of Salmonella typhimurium were isolated in which synthesis of chorismate mutase P-prephenate dehydratase (specified by pheA) was highly elevated. Transduction analysis showed that the mutation affecting pheA activity was not linked to pheA, and conjugation and merodiploid analysis indicated that it was in the 95- to 100-min region of the Salmonella chromosome. Evidence is presented for the hypothesis that the mutation responsible for constitutivity of chorismate mutase P-prephenate dehydratase occurred in pheR, a gene specifying a cytoplasmic product that affected pheA. pheR mutants were found to carry a second mutation, tyrO. The tyrO mutation acts cis to cause increased levels of the tyrosine biosynthetic enzymes 3-deoxy-d-arabinoheptulosonate 7-phosphate synthetase (tyr) and prephenate dehydrogenase, but it has no effect on regulation of pheA.     

Metabolic engineering and protein directed evolution increase the yield of L-phenylalanine synthesized from glucose in Escherichia coli

L-phenylalanine (L-Phe) is an aromatic amino acid with diverse commercial applications. Technologies for industrial microbial synthesis of L-Phe using glucose as a starting raw material currently achieve a relatively low conversion yield (Y(Phe/Glc)). The purpose of this work was to study the effect of PTS (phosphotransferase transport system) inactivation and overexpression of different versions of feedback inhibition resistant chorismate mutase-prephenate dehydratase (CM-PDT) on the yield (Y(Phe/Glc)) and productivity of L-Phe synthesized from glucose. The E. coli JM101 strain and its mutant derivative PB12 (PTS(-)Glc(+) phenotype) were used as hosts. PB12 has an inactive PTS, but is capable of transporting and phosphorylating glucose by using an alternative system constituted by galactose permease (GalP) and glucokinase activities (Glk). JM101 and PB12 were transformed with three plasmids, harboring genes that encode for a feedback inhibition resistant DAHP synthase (aroG(fbr)), transketolase (tktA) and either a truncated CM-PDT (pheA(fbr)) or its derived evolved genes (pheA(ev1) or pheA(ev2)). Resting-cells experiments with these engineered strains showed that JM101 and PB12 strains expressing either pheA(ev1) or pheA(ev2) genes produced l-Phe from glucose with Y(Phe/Glc) of 0.21 and 0.33 g/g, corresponding to 38 and 60% of the maximum theoretical yield (0.55 g/g), respectively. In addition, in both engineered strains the reached q(Phe) high levels of 40 mg/g-dcw.h. The metabolic engineering strategy followed in this work, including a strain with an inactive PTS, resulted in a positive impact over the Y(Phe/Glc), enhancing it nearly 57% compared with its PTS(+) counterpart. This is the first report wherein PTS inactivation was a successful strategy to improve the Y(Phe/Glc).     

Regulation of tyrosine and phenylalanine biosynthesis in Salmonella.

Several types of 4-fluorophenylalanine resistant mutants were isolated. In one type of mutant DAHP synthetase (tyr) and prephenate dehydrogenase were coordinately derepressed. The mutation was linked to aroF and tyrA and was cis- dominant by merodiploid analysis, thus confirming that it is an operator constitutive mutation (tyrOc). A second type of mutation showed highly elevated levels of tyrosine pathway enzymes which were not repressed by L-tyrosine. It was unlinked to tyrA and aroF, and was trans-recessive in merodiploids. These properties were attributed to a mutation in a regulator gene, tyrR (linked to pyr F), that resulted in altered or non-functional aporepressor. Hence tyrO, tyrA, and aroF constitute an operon regulated by tyrR. In a third type of mutation chorismate mutase P-prephenate dehydratase was highly elevated. It was not linked to pheA, was located in the 95--100 min region of the Salmonella chromosome, and was recessive to the wild type gene in merodiploids. A mutation was, therefore, indicated in a regulatory gene, pheR, which specified an aporepressor for regulating pheA. DAHP synthetase (phe), specified by aroG, was not regulated by pheR, but was derepressed in one of the tyrR mutants, suggesting that as in Escherichia coli tyrR may regulate DAHP synthetase(phe) and DAHP synthetase (tyr) with the same aporepressor. A novel mutation in chorismate mutase is described.
