For recombinant production of squalene, which is a triterpenoid compound with increasing industrial applications, in microorganisms generally recognized as safe, we screened Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains to determine their suitability. A strong strain dependence was observed in squalene productivity among Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains upon overexpression of genes important for isoprenoid biosynthesis. In particular, a high level of squalene production (400 ± 45 mg/L) was obtained in shake flasks with the Y2805 strain overexpressing genes encoding a bacterial farnesyl diphosphate synthase (ispA) and a truncated form of hydroxyl-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (tHMG1). Partial inhibition of squalene epoxidase by terbinafine further increased squalene production by up to 1.9-fold (756 ± 36 mg/L). Furthermore, squalene production of 2011 ± 75 or 1026 ± 37 mg/L was obtained from 5-L fed-batch fermentations in the presence or absence of terbinafine supplementation, respectively. These results suggest that the Y2805 strain has potential as a new alternative source of squalene production. 相似文献

To engineer the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the heterologous production of linalool.Results
Expression of linalool synthase gene from Lavandula angustifolia enabled heterologous production of linalool in S. cerevisiae. Downregulation of ERG9 gene, that encodes squalene synthase, by replacing its native promoter with the repressible MET3 promoter in the presence of methionine resulted in accumulation of 78 µg linalool l?1 in the culture medium. This was more than twice that produced by the control strain. The highest linalool titer was obtained by combined repression of ERG9 and overexpression of tHMG1. The yeast strain harboring both modifications produced 95 μg linalool l?1.Conclusions
Although overexpression of tHMG1 and downregulation of ERG9 enhanced linalool titers threefold in the engineered yeast strain, alleviating linalool toxicity is necessary for further improvement of linalool biosynthesis in yeast.3.

This study aimed to overexpress a glucose oxidase gene (GOD1) in Aureobasidium sp. P6 to achieve Ca2+-gluconic acid (GA) overproduction. The GOD1 gene was cloned, deleted, and overexpressed. A protein deduced from the GOD1 gene of Aureobasidium sp. P6 strain had 1824 bp that encoded a protein with 606 amino acids, with a conserved NADB-ROSSMAN domain and a GMC-oxred domain. Deleting the GOD1 gene made the disruptant GOK1 completely lose the ability to produce GA and GOD1 activity, whereas overexpressing the GOD1 gene rendered the transformant GOEX8 to produce considerably more Ca2+-GA (160.5?±?5.6 g/L) and higher GOD1 activity (1438.6?±?73.2 U/mg of protein) than its parent P6 strain (118.7?±?4.3 g/L of Ca2+-GA and 1100.0?±?23.6 U/mg of GOD1 protein). During a 10-L fermentation, the transformant GOEX8 grown in the medium containing 160.0 g/L of glucose produced 186.8?±?6.0 g/L of Ca2+-GA, the yield was 1.2 g/g of glucose, and the volumetric productivity was 1.7 g/L/h. Most of the produced GOD1 were located in the yeast cell wall. The purified product was identified to be a GA. The transformant GOEX8 overexpressing the GOD1 gene could produce considerably more Ca2+-GA (186.8?±?6.0 g/L) than its wild-type strain P6. 相似文献

Corynebacterium glutamicum is particularly known for its potentiality in succinate production. We engineered C. glutamicum for the production of succinate. To enhance C3–C4 carboxylation efficiency, chromosomal integration of the pyruvate carboxylase gene pyc resulted in strain NC-4. To increase intracellular NADH pools, the pntAB gene from Escherichia coli, encoding for transhydrogenase, was chromosomally integrated into NC-4, leading to strain NC-5. Furthermore, we deleted pgi gene in strain NC-5 to redirect carbon flux to the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). To solve the drastic reduction of PTS-mediated glucose uptake, the ptsG gene from C. glutamicum, encoding for the glucose-specific transporter, was chromosomally integrated into pgi-deficient strain resulted in strain NC-6. In anaerobic batch fermentation, the production of succinate in pntAB-overexpressing strain NC-5 increased by 14% and a product yield of 1.22 mol/mol was obtained. In anaerobic fed-batch process, succinic acid concentration reached 856 mM by NC-6. The yields of succinate from glucose were 1.37 mol/mol accompanied by a very low level of by-products. Activating PPP and transhydrogenase in combination led to a succinate yield of 1.37 mol/mol, suggesting that they exhibited a synergistic effect for improving succinate yield. 相似文献

Farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPPS) is a key isoprenyl diphosphate synthase (IDS), which provides synthetic precursors to the terpenoid metabolic pathway. We isolated and characterized a Pinus massoniana FPPS (PmFPPS) gene which encodes a putative farnesyl diphosphate synthase from P. massoniana Lamb. In silico domain analysis revealed that PmFPPS contained all five conserved IDS domains and was homologous to FPPSs from other plant species. An in vitro enzymatic activity assay resulted in an optimum pH, temperature, and Mg2+ concentration of 7.0–7.5, 25 °C, and 1.2 mM, respectively. To identify the function of PmFPPS in vivo, sense and antisense expression vectors were constructed and transformed into tobacco using a constitutive cauliflower mosaic virus-35S promoter. The overexpression of PmFPPS in transgenic plants had higher squalene contents than the control, and the downregulated transgenic plants had lower squalene contents than the control. These results indicate that PmFPPS performs a regulatory role in triterpene biosynthesis. 相似文献

To construct a Bacillus subtilis strain for improved uridine production.Results
The AAG2846–2848 fragment of the pyrAB gene, encoding carbamoylphosphate synthetase, was deleted in B. subtilis TD246 leading to a 245% increase of uridine production and the conversion from glucose to uridine increased by 10.5%. Overexpression of the pyr operon increased the production of uridine by a further 31% and the conversion rate of glucose to uridine was increased by 18%. In addition, the blocking of arginine synthesis or disabling of glutamate dehydrogenase significantly enhanced the uridine production. The highest-producing strain, B. subtilis TD297, accumulated 11 g uridine/l with a yield of 240 mg uridine/g glucose in shake-flask cultivation.Conclusion
This is the first report of engineered B. subtilis strains which can produce more than 11 g uridine/l, with a yield reaching 240 mg uridine/g glucose in shake-flask cultivation.9.

Candida tropicalis can grow with alkanes or plant oils as the sole carbon source, and its industrial application thus has great potential. However, the choice of a suitable genetic operating system can effectively increase the speed of metabolic engineering. MazF functions as an mRNA interferase that preferentially cleaves single-stranded mRNAs at ACA sequences to inhibit protein synthesis, leading to cell growth arrest. Here, we constructed a suicide plasmid named pPICPJ-mazF that uses the mazF gene of Escherichia coli as a counterselectable marker for the markerless editing of C. tropicalis genes to increase the rate of conversion of oils into long-chain dicarboxylic acids. To reduce the β-oxidation of fatty acids, the carnitine acetyltransferase gene (CART) was deleted using the gene editing system, and the yield of long-chain acids from the strain was increased to 8.27 g/L. By two homologous single exchanges, the promoters of both the cytochrome P450 gene and the NADPH–cytochrome P450 reductase gene were subsequently replaced by the constitutively expressed promoter pGAP, and the production of long-chain dicarboxylic acids by the generated strain (C. tropicalis PJPP1702) reached 11.39 g/L. The results of fed-batch fermentation showed that the yield of long-chain acids from the strain was further increased to 32.84 g/L, which was 11.4 times higher than that from the original strain. The results also showed that the pPICPJ-mazF-based markerless editing system may be more suited for completing the genetic editing of C. tropicalis. 相似文献

Embryogenic avocado cultures derived from ‘Hass’ protoplasts were genetically transformed with the plant defensin gene (pdf1.2) driven by the CaMV 35S promoter in pGPTV with uidA as a reporter gene and bar, the gene for resistance to phosphinothricin, the active ingredient of the herbicide Finale® (Basta) (Bayer Environmental Science, Research Triangle Park, Durham, NC ). Transformation was mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105. Transformed cultures were selected in the presence of 3.0 mg l?1 phosphinothricin in liquid maintenance medium for 3–4 mo. Liquid maintenance medium consisted of modified MS medium containing (per liter) 12 mg NH4NO3 and 30.3 mg KNO3 and supplemented with 0.1 mg l?1 thiamine HCl, 100 mg l?1 myo-inositol, 30 g l?1 sucrose, 3.0 mg l?1 phosphinothricin, and 0.41 μM picloram. Somatic embryo development from transformed cultures was initiated on MS medium supplemented with 45 g l?1 sucrose, 4 mg l?1 thiamine HCl, 100 mg l?1 myo-inositol, 10% (v/v) filter-sterilized coconut water, 3.0 mg l?1 phosphinothricin, and 6.0 g l?1 gellan gum. Limited plant recovery occurred from somatic embryos on semi-solid MS medium supplemented with 3.0 mg l?1 phosphinothricin, 4.44 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), and 2.89 μM GA3; transformed shoots were micrografted on in vitro-grown seedling rootstocks. Approximately 1 yr after acclimatization in the greenhouse, transformed shoots were air-layered to recover transformed roots. Genetic transformation of embryogenic cultures, somatic embryos, and regenerated plants was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Southern blot hybridization, the XGLUC reaction for uidA, and application of the herbicide Finale® to regenerated plants. 相似文献

Artemisia pallens is an important medicinal plant. In-vitro regeneration and multiplication of A. pallens have been established using attached cotyledons. Different growth regulators were considered for regeneration of multiple shoots. An average of 36 shoots per explants were obtained by culturing attached cotyledons on Murashige and Skoog’s medium containing 2 mg/L BAP and 0.1 mg/L NAA, after 45 days. The shoots were rooted best on half Murashige and Skoog’s medium with respect to media containing 1 mg/L IBA or 1 mg/L NAA. Different parameters such as type of bacterial strains, OD600 of bacterial culture, co-cultivation duration, concentration of acetosyringone and explants type were optimized for transient expression of the reporter gene. Agrobacterium tumefaciens harbouring pCambia1301 plasmid carrying β-glucuronidase as a reporter gene and hygromycin phosphotransferase as plant selectable marker genes were used for genetic transformation of A. pallens. Hygromycin lethality test showed concentration of 15 mg/L were sufficient to inhibit the growth of attached cotyledons and multiple shoot buds of nontransgenics in selection media. Up to 83 % transient transformation was found when attached cotyledons were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium strain AGL1 for 2 days at 22 °C on shoot induction medium. The bacterial growth was eliminated by addition of cefotaxime (200 mg/L) in selection media. T0 transgenic plants were confirmed by GUS histochemical assay and further by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using uidA and hpt gene specific primers. The study is useful in establishing technological improvement in A. pallens by genetic engineering. 相似文献

Twenty four rhizobial strains were isolated from root nodules of Melilotus, Medicago and Trigonella plants growing wild in soils throughout Egypt. The nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequence from each strain showed that 12 strains (50 %) were closely related to the Ensifer meliloti LMG6133T type strain with identity values higher than 99.0 %, that 9 (37.5 %) strains were more than 99 % identical to the E. medicae WSM419T type strain, and that 3 (12.5 %) strains showed 100 % identity with the type strain of N. huautlense S02T. Accordingly, the diversity of rhizobial strains nodulating wild Melilotus, Medicago and Trigonella species in Egypt is marked by predominance of two genetic types, E. meliloti and E. medicae, although the frequency of isolation was slightly higher in E. meliloti. Sequencing of the symbiotic nodC gene from selected Medicago and Melilotus strains revealed that they were all similar to those of the E. meliloti LMG6133T and E. medicae WSM419T type strains, respectively. Similarly, nodC sequences of strains identified as members of the genus Neorhizobium were more than 99 % identical to that of N. galegae symbiovar officinalis HAMBI 114. 相似文献

Production of recombinant proteins in plants through Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression is a promising method of producing human therapeutic proteins, vaccines, and commercial enzymes. This process has been shown to be viable at a large scale and involves growing large quantities of wild-type plants and infiltrating the leaf tissue with a suspension of Agrobacterium tumefaciens bearing the genes of interest. This study examined one of the steps in this process that had not yet been optimized: the scale-up of Agrobacterium production to sufficient volumes for large-scale plant infiltration. Production of Agrobacterium strain C58C1 pTFS40 was scaled up from shake flasks (50–100 mL) to benchtop (5 L) scale with three types of media: Lysogeny broth (LB), yeast extract peptone (YEP) media, and a sucrose-based defined media. The maximum specific growth rate (μ max) of the strain in the three types of media was 0.46 ± 0.04 h?1 in LB media, 0.43 ± 0.03 h?1 in YEP media, and 0.27 ± 0.01 h?1 in defined media. The maximum biomass concentration reached at this scale was 2.0 ± 0.1, 2.8 ± 0.1, and 2.6 ± 0.1 g dry cell weight (DCW)/L for the three media types. Production was successfully scaled up to a 100-L working volume reactor with YEP media, using k L a as the scale-up parameter. 相似文献

Phenazine-1-carboxamide (PCN) is one of the major biocontrol agents produced by plant growth-promoting rhizosphere (PGPR) pseudomonads including Pseudomonas chlororaphis. In this study, a combined strategy of genetic modification and statistical experimental designs was applied to obtain mutants of P. chlororaphis strains with high-yield PCN production. To achieve this, the lon gene was knocked out in wild-type P. chlororaphis HT66 and the breeding mutant P3 strain with a non-scar deletion strategy. The resulting HT66Δlon and P3Δlon mutants produced a significantly higher PCN production in shake-flask cultures which was 5- and 9-folds greater than their native counterparts. The potential ability of strain P3Δlon for PCN production was further optimized by statistical designs. A two-level Plackett–Burman (PB) experimental design with six variables was employed to scrutinize medium components that significantly influence PCN production. Notably, glycerol, tryptone, and soy peptone were identified to be the most significant factors (p?<?0.05). Response surface methodology (RSM) based on the central composite design (CCD) was adopted to determine these factors optimal levels and their interactive effects between culture components for PCN production. The predicted maximum PCN production was 9002 mg/L, whereas an actual PCN production of 9174 mg/L was recorded in the validation experiments using the optimal medium containing glycerol 37.08 mL/L, tryptone 20.00 g/L, and soy peptone 25.03 g/L, which was nearly threefolds higher than without optimization and 20-folds higher than the wild-type strain. In conclusion, the results revealed that P. chlororaphis display a high potential for industrial-scale production for phenazine biopesticides. 相似文献

To improve production of lipids and carotenoids by the oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides by screening mutant strains.Results
Upon physical mutagenesis of the haploid strain R. toruloides np11 with an atmospheric and room temperature plasma method followed by chemical mutagenesis with nitrosoguanidine, a mutant strain, R. toruloides XR-2, formed dark-red colonies on a screening plate. When cultivated in nitrogen-limited media, XR-2 cells grew slower but accumulated 0.23 g lipids/g cell dry wt and 0.75 mg carotenoids/g CDW. To improve its production capacity, different amino acids and vitamins were supplemented. p-Aminobenzoic acid and tryptophan had beneficial effects on cell growth. When cultivated in nitrogen-limited media in the presence of selected vitamins, XR-2 accumulated 0.41 g lipids/g CDW and 0.69 mg carotenoids/g CDW.Conclusions
A mutant R. toruloides strain with improved production profiles for lipids and carotenoids was obtained, indicating its potential to use combined mutagenesis for a more productive phenotype.18.

Objective
To construct a strain of Corynebacterium glutamicum capable of efficiently producing 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) via the C4 pathway by modification of serine and glycine pathway using glucose as sole carbon source.Results
The recombinant C. glutamicum strain AP2 harboring a codon-optimized hemA gene from Rhodobacter sphaeroides was used as host strain for 5-ALA production. A plasmid harboring the serine operon, which contained serB, serC and the site-specific mutant serA Δ197 , was constructed and introduced into C. glutamicumAP2, leading to an increase of 70% in 5-ALA production. Further overexpression of the glyA gene increased production of 5-ALA by 150% over the control. 5-ALA production was thus significantly enhanced by engineering the glycine biosynthetic pathway. C.glutamicum AG3 produced 3.4 ± 0.2 g 5-ALA/l in shake-flask cultures in CGIIIM medium with the addition of 7.5 g glycine/l.Conclusion
This is the first report of remodeling the serine and glycine biosynthetic pathway to improve the production of 5-ALA in C. glutamicum.19.

To enhance the biosynthesis of medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAMCL) from glucose in Pseudomonas mendocina NK-01, metabolic engineering strategies were used to block or enhance related pathways.Results
Pseudomonas mendocina NK-01 produces PHAMCL from glucose. Besides the alginate oligosaccharide biosynthetic pathway proved by our previous study, UDP-d-glucose and dTDP-l-rhamnose biosynthetic pathways were identified. These might compete for glucose with the PHAMCL biosynthesis. First, the alg operon, galU and rmlC gene were deleted one by one, resulting in NK-U-1(?alg), NK-U-2 (?alg?galU), NK-U-3(alg?galU?rmlC). After fermentation for 36 h, the cell dry weight (CDW) and PHAMCL production of these strains were determined. Compared with NK-U: 1) NK-U-1 produced elevated CDW (from 3.19 ± 0.16 to 3.5 ± 0.11 g/l) and equal PHAMCL (from 0.78 ± 0.06 to 0.79 ± 0.07 g/l); 2) NK-U-2 produced more CDW (from 3.19 ± 0.16 to 3.55 ± 0.23 g/l) and PHAMCL (from 0.78 ± 0.06 to 1.05 ± 0.07 g/l); 3) CDW and PHAMCL dramatically decreased in NK-U-3 (1.53 ± 0.21 and 0.41 ± 0.09 g/l, respectively). Additionally, the phaG gene was overexpressed in strain NK-U-2. Although CDW of NK-U-2/phaG decreased to 1.29 ± 0.2 g/l, PHA titer (%CDW) significantly increased from 24.5 % up to 51.2 %.Conclusion
The PHAMCL biosynthetic pathway was enhanced by blocking branched metabolic pathways in combination with overexpressing phaG gene.20.
Rhodotorula mucilaginosa has been considered as a potential industrial yeast due to its unicellular and fast-growing characteristics, and its ability to produce carotenoids, including torularhodin. However, its low total carotenoid production limits its commercial application. In this study, mutation breeding and metabolic engineering were employed to enhance carotenoid production in the R. mucilaginosa strain KC8. After chemical–physical mutagenesis, R. mucilaginosa K4 with a 67% greater concentration of carotenoids (14.47 ± 0.06 mg L?1) than R. mucilaginosa KC8 (8.67 ± 0.07 mg L?1) was obtained. To further enhance carotenoid production, gene HMG1 encoding the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase was introduced from another yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and overexpressed in R. mucilaginosa K4. The carotenoid production of HMG1-gene-overexpression transformant G1 reached 16.98 mg L?1. To relieve the feedback inhibition of ergosterol, and to down-regulate ergosterol synthesis, ketoconazole, an ergosterol synthesis inhibitor, was added at a concentration of 28 mg L?1. The carotenoid production of the transformant G1 reached 19.14 ± 0.09 mg L?1, which was 121% higher than in R. mucilaginosa KC8. This suggests that a combination of chemical–physical mutagenesis, overexpression of the HMG1 gene, and adding ketoconazole is an effective strategy to improve carotenoid production. 相似文献
