The hemoglobins found in unicellular organisms show a greater chemical reactivity, protect cells against oxidative stress and hence have been implicated in a wider variety of potential functions than those traditionally associated with animal and plant hemoglobins. There are well-documented studies showing that bacteria expressing Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb), the first prokaryotic hemoglobin characterized, have better growth and oxygen uptake rates than VHb counterparts. 相似文献

Improved cell growth in tobacco suspension cultures expressing Vitreoscilla hemoglobin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Expression of the gene encoding bacterial hemoglobin (VHb) from Vitreoscilla has been previously used to improve recombinant cell growth and enhance product formation under microaerobic conditions, a common phenomenon in large-scale cultivations of bacteria. This technology has now been applied to tobacco suspension cultures. Tobacco suspension cultures have been generated from VHb-expressing tobacco plants. Cell cultures were capable of producing an active hemoglobin. When grown in shake flasks, the cells did not show any lag-phase and exhibited improved cell growth, compared to controls carrying the parental plasmid. 相似文献

The gene (vgb) encoding the hemoglobin (VHb) of Vitreoscilla sp. was cloned into a broad host range vector and stably transformed into Burkholderia (formerly Pseudomonas) sp. strain DNT, which is able to degrade and metabolize 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT). Vgb was stably maintained and expressed in functional form in this recombinant strain (YV1). When growth of YV1, in both tryptic soy broth and minimal salts broth containing DNT and yeast extract, was compared with that of the untransformed strain, YV1 grew significantly better on a cell mass basis (A(600)) and reached slightly higher maximum viable cell numbers. YV1 also had roughly twice the respiration as strain DNT on a cell mass basis, and in DNT-containing medium, YV1 degraded DNT faster than the untransformed strain. YV1 cells pregrown in medium containing DNT plus succinate showed the fastest degradation: 100% of the initial 200 ppm DNT was removed from the medium within 3 days. 相似文献

Inefficient carbon metabolism is a relevant issue during the culture of mammalian cells for the production of biopharmaceuticals. Therefore, cell engineering strategies to improve the metabolic and growth performance of cell lines are needed. The expression of Vitreoscilla stercoraria hemoglobin (VHb) has been shown to significantly reduce overflow metabolism and improve the aerobic growth of bacteria. However, the effects of VHb on mammalian cells have been rarely studied. Here, the impact of VHb on growth and lactate accumulation during CHO‐K1 cell culture was investigated. For this purpose, CHO‐K1 cells were transfected with plasmids carrying the vgb or gfp gene to express VHb or green fluorescence protein (GFP), respectively. VHb expression increased the specific growth rate and biomass yields on glucose and glutamine by 60 %, and reduced the amount of lactate produced per cell by 40 %, compared to the GFP‐expression controls. Immunofluorescence microscopy showed that VHb is distributed in the cytoplasm and organelles, which support the hypothesis that VHb could serve as an oxygen carrier, enhancing aerobic respiration. These results are useful for the development of better producing cell lines for industrial applications. 相似文献

Given the well-established beneficial effects of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) on heterologous organisms, the potential of this protein for the production of L -DOPA and dopamine in two bacteria, Citrobacter freundii and Erwinia herbicola, was investigated. The constructed recombinants bearing the VHb gene (vgb+) had substantially higher levels of cytoplasmic L -DOPA (112 mg/L for C. freundii and 97 mg/L for E. herbicola) than their respective hosts (30.4 and 33.8 mg/L) and the vgb– control strains (35.6 and 35.8 mg/L). Further, the vgb+ recombinants of C. freundii and E. herbicola had 20-fold and about two orders of magnitude higher dopamine levels than their hosts, repectively. The activity of tyrosine phenol-lyase, the enzyme converting L -tyrosine to L -DOPA, was well-correlated to cytoplasmic L -DOPA levels. As cultures aged, higher tyrosine phenol-lyase activity of the vgb+ strains was more apparent. 相似文献

Metabolic effects of hemoglobin gene expression in plants 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Hemoglobin (Hb) genes are ubiquitous in plants. Several classes have been identified and are expressed during infection by nitrogen-fixing symbionts, as a result of tissue hypoxia, during seed germination, and in developing (e.g. meristematic) tissues. The induction of the Hb gene by hypoxia is linked to a decrease in ATP levels and is mediated by Ca(2+). Numerous investigations have led to the conclusion that the main function of hypoxically-induced Hb is to metabolize nitric oxide (NO) formed as a by-product of nitrate/nitrite reduction. In this function, Hb serves as a part of an NO dioxygenase system, using traces of oxygen to convert NO to nitrate. It operates in conjunction with a methemoglobin reductase protein, which reduces the oxidized form of Hb (methemoglobin) formed in the course of the NO dioxygenase reaction. The complete reaction serves to maintain the cellular energy and redox state. Plant hemoglobins may also function to modulate effects of plant hormones that employ NO as a downstream signal transduction component. 相似文献

Previous studies suggest that secretion of cloned proteins synthesized by recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells can be adenosine triphosphate (ATP) limited. Other research indicates that the presence of cloned Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) enhances ATP production in oxygen-limited Escherichia coli. To evaluate the influence of VHb expression on recombinant CHO cell productivity, the vhb gene has been fused to the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter and cloned in a CHO cell line previously engineered to express human tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Western blot analysis confirms dexamethasone-inducible VHb expression in all of the clones tested. Batch cultivation experiments with one VHb-expressing clone and the parental CHO-tPA expressing cells. The VHb-expressing clone exhibits specific tPA production 40 to 100% greater than the parental CHO-tPA culture. (c) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The potential of Pseudomonas aeruginosa expressing the Vitreoscilla hemoglobin gene (vgb) for rhamnolipid production was studied. P. aeruginosa (NRRL B-771) and its transposon mediated vgb transferred recombinant strain, PaJC, were used in the research. The optimization of rhamnolipid production was carried out
in the different conditions of cultivation (agitation rate, the composition of culture medium and temperature) in a time-course
manner. The nutrient source, especially the carbon type, had a dramatic effect on rhamnolipid production. The PaJC strain
and the wild type cells of P. aeruginosa started producing biosurfactant at the stationary phase and its concentration reached maximum at 24 h (838 mg/l−1) and at 72 h (751 mg l−1) of the incubation respectively. Rhamnolipid production was optimal in batch cultures when the temperature and agitation
rate were controlled at 30°C and 100 rpm. It reached 8373 mg l−1 when the PaJC cells were grown in 1.0% glucose supplemented minimal media. Genetic engineering of biosurfactant producing
strains with vgb may be an effective method to increase its production. 相似文献

Chromosomal integration of the Vitreoscilla hemoglobin gene and its physiological actions in Tremella fuciformis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) gene was expressed in yeast-like conidia (YLCs) of Tremella fuciformis (T. fuciformis) to increase cell density in submerged fermentation by enhancing oxygen uptake. With the intention of doing this, an integrated expression vector containing the VHb gene and the hygromycin B phosphotransferase (hph) gene derived from Escherichia coli (E. coli) as the selectable marker was constructed, and then transformed into protoplasts of YLCs from T. fuciformis with restriction enzyme-mediated DNA integration (REMI). Hygromycin-resistant transformants had been generated during the transformation. Molecular evidences including PCR assay, Southern blotting, and Western blot analysis indicated the VHb gene had been integrated into the genome of transgenic T. fuciformis strains and was expressed successfully. Shake-flask fermentation and bioreactor cultivation results showed that the expression of VHb in this fungus could enhance growth of YLCs. The final cell density was higher in the culture of VHb-expressing strain than that of the wild-type strain. Moreover, these results also suggested that CaMV35S promoter was capable of driving the expression of heterologous genes in T. fuciformis. 相似文献

The D-region connecting helices C and E of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) appears disordered in the crystal structure. Six site-directed mutants in this region were made to investigate its possible functions. The mutant VHb's were analyzed using UV-visible and FTIR spectroscopy, using primarily the CO liganded forms, and their heme/protein ratios were determined. The results implicate Asp44, Arg47, and Glu49 as especially important in heme-globin interactions and ligand binding, and enabled construction of a model in which the D-region forms a loop that protrudes upward over the heme. Interactions between VHb (wild type and the D-region mutants) with the flavin domain of 2,4-DNT dioxygenase from Burkholderia were tested using bacterial two-hybrid screening. There was a correlation between the extent of the D-loop perturbation predicted for each mutant and the amount of the reduction in VHb-flavin domain interaction, suggesting that this region may be more generally involved in binding of VHb to flavoproteins. 相似文献

High cell-density cultivations are the preferred system for biomolecules production by Escherichia coli. It has been previously demonstrated that a strain of E. coli with a modified substrate transport system is able to attain high cell densities in batch mode, due to the very low overflow metabolism displayed. The use of elevated amounts of glucose from the beginning of the cultivation, eliminates the existence of substrate gradients due to deficient mixing at large-scale. However, the large amounts of oxygen demanded resulted in microaerobic conditions after some hours of cultivation, even at small-scale. In this work, the effect of expressing the Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) in the engineered strain during batch cultures using high-glucose concentrations was tested. Together, the expression of VHb and the modified substrate transport system resulted in a 33% increase of biomass production compared to the parental strain (W3110) lacking the VHb in batch cultivations using 25 g/L of glucose. When 50 g/L of glucose were used, expression of VHb in the modified strain led to 11% higher biomass production compared to W3110. The VHb also increased the growth rates of the strains by about 30% in the aerobic phase and more than 200% in the microaerobic phase of batch cultivation. 相似文献

To develop an efficient way to produce S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), methionine adenosyltransferase gene (mat) from Streptomyces spectabilis and Vitreoscilla hemoglobin gene (vgb) were coexpressed intracellularly in Pichia pastoris, both under control of methanol-inducible promoter. Expression of mat in P. pastoris resulted in about 27 times higher specific activity of methionine adenosyltransferase (SMAT) and about 19 times higher SAM
production relative to their respective control, suggesting that overexpression of mat could be used as an efficient method for constructing SAM-accumulating strain. Under induction concentration of 0.8 and 2.4%
methanol, coexpression of vgb improved, though to different extent, cell growth, SAM production, and respiratory rate. However, the effects of VHb on SAM
content (specific yield of SAM production) and SMAT seemed to be methanol concentration-dependent. When cells were induced
with 0.8% methanol, no significant effects of VHb expression on SAM content and specific SMAT could be detected. When the
cells were induced with 2.4% methanol, vgb expression increased SAM content significantly and depressed SMAT remarkably. We suggested that under our experimental scheme,
the presence of VHb might improve ATP synthesis rate and thus improve cell growth and SAM production in the recombinant P. pastoris. 相似文献

Enhanced production of acetoin and butanediol in recombinant Enterobacter aerogenes carrying Vitreoscilla hemoglobin gene 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Microbial production of butanediol and acetoin has received increasing interest because of their diverse potential practical uses. Although both products are fermentative in nature, their optimal production requires a low level of oxygen. In this study, the use of a recombinant oxygen uptake system on production of these metabolites was investigated. Enterobacter aerogenes was transformed with a pUC8-based plasmid carrying the gene (vgb) encoding Vitreoscilla (bacterial) hemoglobin (VHb). The presence of vgb and production of VHb by this strain resulted in an increase in viability from 72 to 96 h in culture, but no overall increase in cell mass. Accumulation of the fermentation products acetoin and butanediol were enhanced (up to 83%) by the presence of vgb/VHb. This vgb/VHb related effect appears to be due to an increase of flux through the acetoin/butanediol pathway, but not at the expense of acid production. 相似文献
