Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a natural biopolymer of glutamic acid. The repeating units of γ-PGA may be derived exclusively from d-glutamic acid, or l-glutamic acid, or both. The monomer units are linked by amide bonds between the α-amino group and the γ-carboxylic acid group. γ-PGA is biodegradable, edible and water-soluble. It has numerous existing and emerging applications in processing of foods, medicines and cosmetics. This review focuses on microbial production of γ-PGA via genetically and metabolically engineered recombinant bacteria. Strategies for improving production of γ-PGA include modification of its biosynthesis pathway, enhancing the production of its precursor (glutamic acid), and preventing loss of the precursor to competing byproducts. These and other strategies are discussed. Heterologous synthesis of γ-PGA in industrial bacterial hosts that do not naturally produce γ-PGA is discussed. Emerging trends and the challenges affecting the production of γ-PGA are reviewed. 相似文献

Poly-γ-glutamate (PGA), a novel polyamide material with industrial applications, possesses a nylon-like backbone, is structurally similar to polyacrylic acid, is biodegradable and is safe for human consumption. PGA is frequently found in the mucilage of natto, a Japanese traditional fermented food. To date, three different types of PGA, namely a homo polymer of d-glutamate (D-PGA), a homo polymer of l-glutamate (L-PGA), and a random copolymer consisting of d- and l-glutamate (DL-PGA), are known. This review will detail the occurrence and physiology of PGA. The proposed reaction mechanism of PGA synthesis including its localization and the structure of the involved enzyme, PGA synthetase, are described. The occurrence of multiple carboxyl residues in PGA likely plays a role in its relative unsuitability for the development of bio-nylon plastics and thus, establishment of an efficient PGA-reforming strategy is of great importance. Aside from the potential applications of PGA proposed to date, a new technique for chemical transformation of PGA is also discussed. Finally, some techniques for PGA and its derivatives in advanced material technology are presented. 相似文献

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a retaining agent; it has applications in the food, medicine, agriculture, cosmetics and wastewater treatment industries. Most of the γ-PGA producing strains belong to the genus Bacillus. This study reports on a novel γ-PGA producing species. Bacillus siamensis SB1001 was screened and isolated from organically cultivated soybeans exhibiting a high γ-PGA producing ability. The fermentation medium and culture parameters for γ-PGA production by Bacillus siamensis SB1001 were optimized by statistical methods. The sucrose, l-glutamic acid and dipotassium phosphate in the medium were shown to be the significant factors of the γ-PGA production, and the optimum medium obtained consisted of the following: 106.86 g/L sucrose, 69.84 g/L l-glutamic acid and 2.39 g/L dipotassium phosphate. Using the optimized medium, 25.22 g/L γ-PGA were produced with a productivity of 1.05 g/L/h. The γ-PGA obtained had a molecular weight of 7.9 × 105 Da and a polydispersity index of 2.34, and the ratio of d-/L-glutamic acid was 89.71%:10.29%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of γ-PGA production by B. siamensis strain. B. siamensis SB1001 has great potential as an industrial γ-PGA producer. 相似文献

A new glutamic acid independent poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) producing strain, which was identified as Bacillusamyloliquefaciens LL3 by analysis of 16S rDNA and gyrase subunit A gene (gyrA), was isolated from fermented food. The product had a molecular weight of 470, 801 and l-glutamate monomer content of 98.47%. The pre-optimal medium, based on single-factor tests and orthogonal design, contained 50 g/L sucrose, 2 g/L (NH4)2SO4, 0.6 g/L MgSO4, and provided well-balanced changes in processing parameters and a γ-PGA yield of 4.36 g/L in 200 L system. The γ-PGA synthetase genes pgsBCA were cloned from LL3, and successfully expressed by pTrcLpgs vector in Escherichia coli JM109, resulting the synthesis of γ-PGA without glutamate. This study demonstrates the designedly improved yield of γ-PGA in 200 L system and the first report of pgsBCA from glutamic acid independent strain, which will benefit the metabolized mechanism investigation and the wide-ranging application of γ-PGA. 相似文献

Fed-batch cultures of Bacillus licheniformis produced poly--glutamic acid (PGA), a water-soluble biodegradable polymer. PGA reached 35 g l–1 with a productivity of 1 g l–1 h–1 by pulsed-feeding of citric acid (1.44 g h–1) and l-glutamic acid (2.4 g h–1) when citric acid was depleted from the culture medium. 相似文献

Bacillus licheniformis WBL-3, one of poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) producers, depends on the existence of glutamate in the medium. In this paper, γ-PGA synthetase complex gene (pgsBCA) was cloned from Bacillus licheniformis WBL-3. pgsBCA gene of B. licheniformis WBL-3 was highly homologous with pgs-BCA gene of B. licheniformis 14580. The similarity was 97%, but the similarity of pgsBCA gene between B. licheniformis WBL-3 and Bacillus subtilis IFO3336 was only 74%. However, when pgsBCA was expressed in Escherichia coli, the E. coli clone produced γ-PGA extracellularly. The yield of γ-PGA was 8.624 g/l. This result infers that B. licheniformis and B. subtilis has the similar γ-PGA biosynthesis mechanism, namely, glutamic acid is catalyzed by an ATP-dependent amide ligase to synthesize γ-PGA. 相似文献

We have synthesized poly-γ-glutamic acid (PGA) modified with a synthetic trivalent glyco-ligand (TriGalNAc) for the hepatocyte asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R). We investigated in vivo distribution of unmodified PGA and TriGalNAc-modified PGA (TriGalNAc-PGA) in mice after intravenous injection. Most of unmodified PGA administered was transported to the bladder over 20–80 min, suggesting a rapid excretion of unmodified PGA into urine. In contrast, TriGalNAc-PGA was found exclusively in the liver over the same period of time. We further synthesized TriGalNAc-PGA–primaquine conjugate (TriGalNAc-PGA–PQ), and investigated binding, uptake, and catabolism of the conjugate by rat hepatocytes. Our studies indicated that approximately 250 ng per million cells of the conjugate bound to one million rat hepatocytes at 0 °C, and approximately 2 μg per million cells of the conjugate was taken up over 7 h incubation at 37 °C. Furthermore, our results suggested that TriGalNAc-PGA–PQ was almost completely degraded over 24 h, and small degradation products were secreted into cell culture medium.The results described in this report suggest that the TriGalNAc ligand can serve as an excellent targeting device for delivery of PGA-conjugates to the liver hepatocytes, and rat hepatocytes possess sufficient capacity to digest PGA even modified with other substituents. 相似文献

Dairy manure, supplemented with agro-industrial materials, was used as the solid substrate for high yield of poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) by Bacillus subtilis CCTCC202048. The solid-state fermentation medium was optimized by response surface methodology. In the first optimization step, a Plackett–Burman design was used to evaluate the influence of related factors. Wheat bran, soybean cake and glutamic acid were found to be more compatible supplement with dairy manure and positively influenced on γ-PGA production. In the second step, the concentrations of the three supplemental nutrients above were further optimized using a Box–Behnken design. The average γ-PGA yield (4.70%) in triplicate under optimal conditions was obtained on the laboratory scale, whereas it was 3.58% at compost experiment. These would lay a foundation for lessening the pollution of dairy manure, increasing fertilizer efficiency and exploring a late-model organic fertilizer that retains water and nutrients. 相似文献

We investigated the functionality of poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA), which is produced by Bacillus subtilis D7, for its potential applications in medicine and cosmetics. The γ-PGA had angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition activity. ACE inhibition activity was dependent on the γ-PGA concentration; the highest ACE inhibition activity was observed at 1.25 mg/l of γ-PGA. IC50 (0.108 mg/ml) of the γ-PGA was lower than that of standard ACE inhibitory drug, N-[(S)-mercapto-2-methylpropionyl]-L-proline (0.247 mg/ml). The γ-PGA also had water-holding capacity and hygroscopicity. Furthermore, the γ-PGA inhibited growth of some pathogenic bacteria, including Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia and Esherichia coli. The γ-PGA exhibited a good metal adsorption capacity; Cr (VI) adsorption capacity of γ-PGA increased with decreasing pH, and the maximal adsorption was observed at pH 2. Our results suggest that γ-PGA may be expected to be widely applied in cosmetics, biomedical and environmental industries with the feature of being less harmful to humans and the environment. 相似文献

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a polymer with uses in foods, cosmetics, medicine and agriculture. The medium for the production of γ-PGA by Bacillusamyloliquefaciens C1 was optimized by response surface methodology using agro-industrial wastes in solid-state fermentation (SSF). The optimal SSF medium (20 g substrates with 50% initial moisture) for producing γ-PGA was determined to contain 5.51 g dairy manure compost, 1.91 g soybean cake, 0.57 g corn flour, 2.15 g monosodium glutamate production residues, 1.5 g wheat bran, 0.5 g rapeseed cake, 0.1 g citric acid, 0.05 g MgSO4·7H2O and 0.03 g MnSO4·H2O. In this medium the strain produced up to 0.0437 g γ-PGA per gram of substrates when cultured for 48 h at 37 °C. SDS-PAGE showed that the molecular weight of the γ-PGA was more than 130 kDa. Due to the high-yields observed and the low-cost nature of the optimal medium, this study indicates a possibility to establish economical large-scale production of γ-PGA. 相似文献

Bacillus subtilis-derived poly-γ-glutamic acid (γPGA) stimulates dendritic cells (DCs) to produce IL12, leading to CD4+ T cell differentiation toward the Th1 phenotype, but DCs consist of heterogeneous subpopulations with a variety of immune functions. Among these, natural killer dendritic cells (NKDCs) play an important role in anti-tumor immune responses. Herein, we demonstrate the role of NKDCs in γPGA-meditated anti-tumor immune responses. NK1.1+ CD11c+ NKDCs were stimulated upon γPGA stimulation in vitro and in vivo to up-regulate lymphocyte activation markers, MHC class I and II, and co-stimulatory molecules. In particular, NKDCs were activated by γPGA to produce IFNγ and TNFα, like NK cells, as well as IL12, like DCs, implying that NKDCs have unique and multifunctional roles. Importantly, NKDCs stimulated by γPGA conferred stronger anti-tumor effects in mice and showed increased cytotoxicity against various tumor cell lines in vitro. In conclusion, NKDCs are one of the key players in anti-tumor immunity induced by γPGA. 相似文献

The aims of this research were to screen and characterize a new microbial source of γ-PGA, to optimize aspects of culture conditions and medium composition using central composite design and response surface methodologies. The influence of bioreactor stirring rates on the production of γ-PGA was also investigated and the oxygen volumetric mass transfer coefficients (k La) were established. The most productive strain was identified by 16S rDNA analysis as Bacillus subtilis, and its γ-PGA production in rotatory shaker was threefold increased under optimized conditions (37 °C, pH 6.9, and 1.22 mM Zn2+), compared to conventional medium. In bioreactor, the γ-PGA production was further increased, reaching 17 g l?1, 70 % higher than shaker cultures. γ-PGA production showed high dependency on oxygen transfer. At k La of 210 h?1, the cultivation time could be reduced to 48 h, about 50 % of the time required for operations at k La 55 h?1. 相似文献

Considering the industrial interest of Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), bacteria isolated from the various marine arenas were screened for their ability to accumulate PHB and were compared with Wausteria eutropha (MTCC-1285). Among the 42 isolates, four strains showed the accumulation of PHB. The maximum PHB producer Vibrio sp. (MK4) was further studied in detail. To increase the productivity, steps were taken to evaluate the effect of carbon sources, nitrogen sources, pH and sodium chloride concentration on PHB productivity by MK4. The optimized conditions were further used for the batch fermentation over a period of 72 h. Significantly higher maximum biomass of 9.1 g/L with a PHB content of 4.223 g/L was obtained in a laboratory-scale bioreactor at 64 h, thus giving a productivity of 0.065 g/L/h. The extracted polymer was compared with the authentic PHB and was confirmed to be PHB using FTIR analysis and 1H NMR analysis. Thus, the study highlights the potential of the use of Vibrio sp (MK4) in the commercial production of PHB. 相似文献

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a promising environmental-friendly material with outstanding water solubility, biocompatibility and degradability. However, it is tough to determine the relationship between functional synthetic enzyme and the strains'' yield or substrate dependency. We cloned γ-PGA synthetase genes pgsBCA and glutamate racemase gene racE from both L-glutamate-dependent γ-PGA-producing Bacillus licheniformis NK-03 and L-glutamate-independent B. amyloliquefaciens LL3 strains. The deduced RacE and PgsA from the two strains shared the identity of 84.5% and 78.53%, while PgsB and PgsC possessed greater similarity with 93.13% and 93.96%. The induced co-expression of pgsBCA and racE showed that the engineered Escherichia coli strains had the capacity of synthesizing γ-PGA, and LL3 derived PgsBCA had higher catalytic activity and enhanced productivity than NK-03 in Luria–Bertani medium containing glucose or L-glutamate. However, the differential effect was weakened when providing sufficient immediateness L-glutamate substrate, that is, the supply of substrate could be served as the ascendance upon γ-PGA production. Furthermore, RacE integration could enhance γ-PGA yield through improving the preferred d-glutamate content. This is the first report about co-expression of pgsBCA and racE from the two Bacillus strains, which will be of great value for the determination of the biosynthetic mechanism of γ-PGA. 相似文献

Summary Fifty-one methylotrophs were checked with respect to their ability of poly--hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) production from methanol. One of them, Pseudomonas sp.

, Mg2+, Fe2+ or Mn2+. Among them, nitrogen deficiency was chosen from its effectiveness and easiness for PHB accumulation.The microorganism was cultivated to produce a large amount of poly--hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) from methanol by means of microcomputer-aided fully automatic fed-batch culture technique. During the cultivation, temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration (DO), and methanol concentration in the culture broth were maintained at 30° C 2.5±0.5 ppm and 0.5±0.2 g/l, respectively. Other nutrients, nitrogen source and mineral ions, were also controlled to maintain their initial concentrations in the medium during cell growth phase. When the high cell concentration was achieved (160 g/l), feedings of ammonia and minerals were stopped and only methanol was supplied successively to accumulate PHB. At 175 h, high concentration of PHB (136 g/l) was obtained and total cell concentration became 206 g/l. DO must be maintained above the critical level during the PHB formation phase, too. PHB yield from methanol (g PHB/g methanol) was 0.18 and the maximum PHB content reached 66% of dry weight. Solid PHB produced by the strain had the melting point of 176° C and the average molecular weight of 3.0x105. 相似文献

Various enantiomeric isomers, metals salts and molecular sizes of poly(-glutamic acid), -PGA, produced by Bacillus licheniformis CCRC 12826, were prepared and their antifreeze activities were studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The antifreeze activity of -PGA increased as its molecular weight decreased but was indifferent to its d/l-glutamate composition. The antifreeze activity was cation dependent decreasing in the order Mg2+>>Ca
