Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1 naturally produces wax esters that could be used as a raw material in industrial applications. We attempted to improve wax ester yield of A. baylyi ADP1 by removing rmlA, a gene involved in exopolysaccharide production. Growth rate, biomass formation and wax ester yield on 4-hydroxybenzoate were not affected, but the rmlA ? strain grew slower on acetate, while reaching similar biomass and wax ester yield. The rmlA ? cells had malformed shape and large size and grew poorly on glucose without expression of the gene for pyruvate kinase (pykF) from Escherichia coli. The pykF-expressing rmlA ? strain had similar growth rate, lowered biomass formation and improved wax ester production on glucose as compared to the wild-type strain expressing pykF. Cultivation of the pykF-expressing rmlA ? strain on an elevated glucose concentration in a medium supplemented with amino acids resulted in doubled molar wax ester yield and acetate production. 相似文献

The effect of the introduction of a synthetic bypass, providing 2-ketoglutarate to succinate conversion via the intermediate succinate semialdehyde formation, on aerobic biosynthesis of succinic acid from glucose through the oxidative branch of the tricarboxylic acid cycle in recombinant Escherichia coli strains has been studied. The strain lacking the key pathways of acetic, lactic acid and ethanol formation from pyruvate and acetyl-CoA and possessing modified system of glucose transport and phosphorylation was used as a chassis for the construction of the target recombinants. The operation of the glyoxylate shunt in the strains was precluded resulting from the deletion of the aceA, aceB, and glcB genes encoding isocitrate lyase and malate synthases A and G. The constitutive activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase was ensured due to deletion of isocitrate dehydrogenase kinase/phosphatase gene, aceK. Upon further inactivation of succinate dehydrogenase, the corresponding strain synthesized succinic acid from glucose with a molar yield of 24.9%. Activation of the synthetic bypass by the induced expression of Mycobacterium tuberculosis 2-ketoglutarate decarboxylase gene notably increased the yield of succinic acid. Functional activity of the synthetic bypass in the strain with the inactivated glyoxylate shunt and opened tricarboxylic acid cycle led to 2.7-fold increase in succinate yield from glucose. As the result, the substrate to the target product conversion reached 67.2%. The respective approach could be useful for the construction of the efficient microbial succinic acid producers. 相似文献

Hyaluronic acid (HA) production was metabolically engineered in Lactococcus lactis by introducing the HA synthetic machinery from the has operon of the pathogenic bacterium Streptococcus zooepidemicus. This study shows that the insertion of uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucose pyrophosphorylase (hasC) gene in addition to the HA synthase (hasA) and UDP-glucose dehydrogenase (hasB) genes has a significant impact on increasing HA production. The recombinant L. lactis NZ9000 strain transformed with the plasmid pSJR2 (co-expressing hasA and hasB genes only) produced a maximum of 107 mg/l HA in static flask experiments with varying initial glucose concentrations, while
the corresponding experiments with the transformant SJR3 (co-expressing hasA, hasB, and hasC genes) gave a maximum yield of 234 mg/l HA. The plasmid cloned with the insertion of the full has operon comprising of five different genes (hasA, hasB, hasC, hasD, and hasE) exhibited structural instability. The HA yield was further enhanced in batch bioreactor experiments with controlled pH and
aeration, and a maximum of 1.8 g/l HA was produced by the SJR3 culture. 相似文献

The genes frdAB and sdhAB, which encode components of fumarate reductase and succinate dehydrogenase, have been deleted in a recombinant E. coli strain with the inactivated pathways of mixed-acid fermentation and a modified system of glucose transport and phosphorylation upon the heterological expression of the pyruvate carboxylase gene. Under anaerobic conditions, the parental strain efficiently converted glucose to succinic acid without synthesizing notable amounts of fumaric or malic acid. Upon individual deletion of the frdAB genes, the mutant strain fermented glucose to succinic acid less efficiently secreting notable amounts of malic and fumaric acids. Individual deletion of the sdhAB genes in the parental strain did not significantly affect the formation of the main fermentation end-product. The combined inactivation of fumarate reductase and succinate dehydrogenase in the constructed strain enhanced the anaerobic conversion of glucose to fumaric and malic acids with the activation of the glyoxylate bypass and decrease in the contribution of the reductive branch of the TCA cycle to the formation of the target products. 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

Recombinant Lactococcus lactis strains based on the P170 expression system were developed for hyaluronan (HA) production, by incorporating genes from the has operon of Streptococcus zooepidemicus and compared with nisin-inducible recombinant L. lactis strains containing the hasABC and hasABD constructs. It was found across all batch and fed-batch experimental studies that HA concentration and molecular weight (MW) were higher for the P170 expression systems than the corresponding NICE-based strains. The highest hyaluronan MW was obtained for all constructs in batch studies at 60 g/L initial glucose concentration, the highest being 2.94 MDa for the P170 strains with hasABC construct (L. lactis APJ3). In fed-batch studies with constant feed rate, the L. lactis APJ3 gave better HA yield (0.03 g/g) than the NICE-based strain. A higher hyaluronan MW was obtained for all strains in pulse fed-batch compared to constant feed experiments, the highest being 2.52 MDa for L. lactis APJ3. 相似文献

Streptococcus zooepidemicus is a bacterial pathogen used for production of hyaluronan in industry. Intensive research has significantly contributed to our understanding of S. zooepidemicus biology and pathogenesis. However, the lack of an effective targeted gene inactivation system in S. zooepidemicus has notably prevented the functional genomics analysis of this gram-positive bacterium. Here, we report the development of a markerless gene deletion system in S. zooepidemicus. We constructed a sacB expression cassette on the thermosensitive suicide vector pSET4s and demonstrated its use as a counterselection marker in S. zooepidemicus. We validated the efficiency of this system by deletion of hasA, which synthesizes the important virulence factor hyaluronic acid (HA) capsule. The genotype of the resultant hasA mutant was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. Deletion of hasA resulted in non-mucoid morphology, loss of HA capsule formation, and HA production. These defects can be rescued by introduction of a plasmid containing wild-type hasA expression cassette. Moreover, compared with wild type, hasA mutant showed no significant difference in expressions of other members of the hasABCDE operon, further suggesting that the loss of hasA contributed to the defects observed with ΔhasA mutant. Our results describe the first establishment of a sacB-based counterselection system in S. zooepidemicus, along with the first demonstration of hasA that is the only gene encoding a functional hyaluronan synthase in this bacterium. 相似文献

Squalene is a strong antioxidant used extensively in the food, cosmetic and medicine industries. Rhodopseudomonas palustris TIE-1 was used as the host because of its ability to grow photosynthetically using solar energy and carbon dioxide from atmosphere. The deletion of the shc gene resulted in a squalene production of 3.8 mg/g DCW, which was 27-times higher than that in the wild type strain. For constructing a substrate channel to elevate the conversion efficiency, we tried to fuse crtE gene with hpnD gene. By fusing the two genes, squalene content was increased to 12.6 mg/g DCW, which was 27.4 % higher than that resulted from the co-expression method. At last, the titer of squalene reached 15.8 mg/g DCW by co-expressing the dxs gene, corresponding to 112-fold increase relative to that for wild-type strain. This study provided novel strategies for improving squalene yield and demonstrated the potential of producing squalene by Rhodopseudomonas palustris. 相似文献

Very high gravity (VHG) fermentation is the mainstream technology in ethanol industry, which requires the strains be resistant to multiple stresses such as high glucose concentration, high ethanol concentration, high temperature and harsh acidic conditions. To our knowledge, it was not reported previously that any ethanol-producing microbe showed a high performance in VHG fermentations without amino acid and vitamin. Here we demonstrate the engineering of a xylose utilizing recombinant Zymomonas mobilis for VHG ethanol fermentations. The recombinant strain can produce ethanol up to 136 g/L without amino acid and vitamin with a theoretical yield of 90 %, which is significantly superior to that produced by all the reported ethanol-producing strains. The intracellular fatty acids of the bacterial were about 16 % of the bacterial dry biomass, with the ratio of ethanol:fatty acids was about 273:1 (g/g). The recombinant strain was achieved by a multivariate-modular strategy tackles with the multiple stresses which are closely linked to the ethanol productivity of Z. mobilis. The over-expression of metB/yfdZ operon enabled the growth of the recombinant Z. mobilis in a chemically defined medium without amino acid and vitamin; and the fatty acids overproduction significantly increased ethanol tolerance and ethanol production. The coupled production of ethanol with fatty acids of the Z. mobilis without amino acid and vitamin under VHG fermentation conditions may permit a significant reduction of the production cost of ethanol and microbial fatty acids. 相似文献

Plasmid profiling can be used for quick molecular characterization of bacteria. In the study reported here, this method was used to compare the plasmid profiles of strains of Gluconacetobacter europaeus, one of the dominant species in industrial vinegar production. Further analysis of three selected strains by two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis showed that the plasmid profiles are composed of different forms of plasmids of the same size. One of these plasmids, pJK2-1, was introduced into Gluconacetobacter oboediens JK3 as a chimeric plasmid (pJT2) with pUC18. The recombinant strain showed a shorter lag phase in a medium with 3 and 5 % (v/v) acetic acid. Deletion of a part of plasmid pJK2-1 allowed a region that contributes to this novel phenotype of G. oboediens JK3 pJT2 to be identified. Non-problematic handling of G. oboediens JK3 warrants further study in elucidating the function of plasmids involved in the production of vinegar. 相似文献

Background
Alkaline amylase has significant potential for applications in the textile, paper and detergent industries, however, low yield of which cannot meet the requirement of industrial application. In this work, a novel ARTP mutagenesis-screening method and fermentation optimization strategies were used to significantly improve the expression level of recombinant alkaline amylase in B. subtilis 168.Results
The activity of alkaline amylase in mutant B. subtilis 168 mut-16# strain was 1.34-fold greater than that in the wild-type, and the highest specific production rate was improved from 1.31 U/(mg·h) in the wild-type strain to 1.57 U/(mg·h) in the mutant strain. Meanwhile, the growth of B. subtilis was significantly enhanced by ARTP mutagenesis. When the agitation speed was 550 rpm, the highest activity of recombinant alkaline amylase was 1.16- and 1.25-fold of the activities at 450 and 650 rpm, respectively. When the concentration of soluble starch and soy peptone in the initial fermentation medium was doubled, alkaline amylase activity was increased 1.29-fold. Feeding hydrolyzed starch and soy peptone mixture or glucose significantly improved cell growth, but inhibited the alkaline amylase production in B. subtilis 168 mut-16#. The highest alkaline amylase activity by feeding hydrolyzed starch reached 591.4 U/mL, which was 1.51-fold the activity by feeding hydrolyzed starch and soy peptone mixture. Single pulse feeding-based batch feeding at 10 h favored the production of alkaline amylase in B. subtilis 168 mut-16#.Conclusion
The results indicated that this novel ARTP mutagenesis-screening method could significantly improve the yield of recombinant proteins in B. subtilis. Meanwhile, fermentation optimization strategies efficiently promoted expression of recombinant alkaline amylase in B. subtilis 168 mut-16#. These findings have great potential for facilitating the industrial-scale production of alkaline amylase and other enzymes, using B. subtilis cultures as microbial cell factories.14.

AbstractHyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural biopolymer and has long been attracting the attention of biotechnology industry due to its various biological functions. HA production with natural producer Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus has not been preferred because it has many drawbacks due to its pathogenicity. Therefore, in the present study, Streptococcal hyaluronan synthase gene (hasA) was introduced and expressed in Lactococcus lactis, through the auto inducible NICE system and the effect of nisin amount on the production of HA was examined. Newly constructed plasmid was transformed into L. lactis CES15, produced 6.09 g/l HA in static flask culture after three hours of induction period with initial 7.5 ng/ml nisin concentration within total six hours of incubation. The highest HA titer value ever was reported for recombinant HA-producing L. lactis by examining the effect of initial nisin concentration. We have shown that initial nisin concentration, which used to initiate the auto-inducing mechanism of NICE system and consequently hyaluronan synthase expression, has a direct and significant effect on the produced HA amount. Recently constructed recombinant L. lactis CES15 strain provide significant advantages for industrial HA production than those in literature in terms of production time, energy demand, carbon usage, and safety status. 相似文献

A range of recombinant strains of Escherichia coli were developed to produce 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO), an important C3 diol, from glucose. Two modules, the glycerol-producing pathway converting dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol and the 1,3-PDO-producing pathway converting glycerol to 1,3-PDO, were introduced into E. coli. In addition, to avoid oxidative assimilation of the produced glycerol, glycerol oxidative pathway was deleted. Furthermore, to enhance the carbon flow to the Embden- Meyerhof-Parnas pathway, the Entner-Doudoroff pathway was disrupted by deleting 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase and 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate aldolase. Finally, the acetate production pathway was removed to minimize the production of acetate, a major and toxic by-product. Flask experiments were carried out to examine the performance of the developed recombinant E. coli. The best strain could produce 1,3-PDO with a yield of 0.47 mol/mol glucose. Along with 1,3-PDO, glycerol was produced with a yield of 0.33 mol/mol glucose. 相似文献

Several metabolic engineered Escherichia coli strains were constructed and evaluated for four-carbon dicarboxylic acid production. Fumarase A, fumarase B and fumarase C single, double and triple mutants were constructed in a ldhA adhE mutant background overexpressing the pyruvate carboxylase from Lactococcus lactis. All the mutants produced succinate as the main four-carbon (C4) dicarboxylic acid product when glucose was used as carbon source with the exception of the fumAC and the triple fumB fumAC deletion strains, where malate was the main C4-product with a yield of 0.61–0.67 mol (mole glucose)?1. Additionally, a mdh mutant strain and a previously engineered high-succinate-producing strain (SBS550MG-Cms pHL413-Km) were investigated for aerobic malate production from succinate. These strains produced 40.38 mM (5.41 g/L) and 50.34 mM (6.75 g/L) malate with a molar yield of 0.53 and 0.55 mol (mole succinate)?1, respectively. Finally, by exploiting the high-succinate production capability, the strain SBS550MG-Cms243 pHL413-Km showed significant malate production in a two-stage process from glucose. This strain produced 133 mM (17.83 g/L) malate in 47 h, with a high yield of 1.3 mol (mole glucose)?1 and productivity of 0.38 g L?1 h?1. 相似文献

Hyaluronic acid (HA) has been industrially produced using the gram-positive bacterium Streptococcus zooepidemicus. Large amount of lactic acid formation was one of the important factors that restricted cell growth and HA productivity and lowered the substrate to HA conversion efficiency in a fermentor. In this study, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthesis genes (phbCAB) of Ralstonia eutropha were cloned from the plasmid pBHR68 and were inserted into the plasmid pEU308, an expression vector for gram-positive bacteria. The plasmid was transformed into S. zooepidemicus by electroporation. β-Ketothiolase (PhbA), acetoacetyl-CoA reductase (PhbB), and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase (PhbC) activity assays were carried out to demonstrate the expression of these genes. The PhbA and PhbB activities were 3.13 and 1.23 U mg−1, respectively. No PhbC activities were detected. In shake flask studies, there was no obvious difference between the wild-type and recombinant S. zooepidemicus harboring phbCAB genes in terms of lactic acid and HA formation. However, in fermentor studies, the recombinant produced only 40 g L−1 lactic acid and 7.5 g L−1 HA, whereas the wild type produced 65 g L−1 lactic acid and 5.5 g L−1 HA. These results suggested that expression of phbCAB genes in S. zooepidemicus could help regulate HA production metabolism. Because the lactic acid formation in S. zooepidemicus was sensitive to cellular oxidation/reduction potential, it is proposed that the PHB synthesis pathway could act as a regulator to adjust the cellular oxidation/reduction potential. This is the first study demonstrating that PHA synthesis related to energy and carbon metabolism could be employed as a pathway to regulate other cellular metabolism and possibly to regulate the production of other metabolic products. 相似文献

In this study, we constructed an l-methionine-producing recombinant strain from wild-type Escherichia coli W3110 by metabolic engineering. To enhance the carbon flux to methionine and derepression met regulon, thrBC, lysA, and metJ were deleted in turn. Methionine biosynthesis obstacles were overcome by overexpression of metA Fbr (Fbr, Feedback resistance), metB, and malY under control of promoter pN25. Recombinant strain growth and methionine production were further improved by attenuation of metK gene expression through replacing native promoter by metK84p. Blocking the threonine pathway by deletion of thrBC or thrC was compared. Deletion of thrC showed faster growth rate and higher methionine production. Finally, metE, metF, and metH were overexpressed to enhance methylation efficiency. Compared with the original strain E. coli W3110, the finally obtained Me05 (pETMAFbr-B-Y/pKKmetH) improved methionine production from 0 to 0.65 and 5.62 g/L in a flask and a 15-L fermenter, respectively. 相似文献

We have previously reported in vivo biosynthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates containing 2-hydroxyacid monomers such as lactate and 2-hydroxybutyrate in recombinant Escherichia coli strains by the expression of evolved Clostridium propionicum propionyl-CoA transferase (PctCp) and Pseudomonas sp. MBEL 6-19 polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase 1 (PhaC1 Ps6-19). Here, we report the biosynthesis of poly(2-hydroxybutyrate-co-lactate)[P(2HB-co-LA)] by direct fermentation of metabolically engineered E. coli strain. Among E. coli strains WL3110, XL1-Blue, and BL21(DE3), recombinant E. coli XL1-Blue strain expressing PhaC1437 and Pct540 produced P(76.4mol%2HB-co-23.6mol%LA) to the highest content of 88 wt% when it was cultured in a chemically defined medium containing 20 g/L of glucose and 2 g/L of sodium 2-hydroxybutyrate. When recombinant E. coli XL1-Blue strain expressing PhaC1437 and Pct540 was cultured in a chemically defined medium containing 20 g/L of glucose and varying concentration of sodium 2-hydroxybutyrate, 2HB monomer fraction in P(2HB-co-LA) increased proportional to the concentration of sodium 2-hydroxybutyrate added to the culture medium. P(2HB-co-LA)] could also be produced from glucose as a sole carbon source without sodium 2-hydroxybutyrate into the culture medium. Recombinant E. coli XL1-Blue strain expressing the phaC1437, pct540, cimA3.7, and leuBCD genes together with the L. lactis Il1403 panE gene, successfully produced P(23.5mol%2HB-co-76.5mol%LA)] to the polymer content of 19.4 wt% when it cultured in a chemically defined medium containing 20 g/L of glucose. The metabolic engineering strategy reported here should be useful for the production of novel copolymer P(2HB-co-LA)]. 相似文献
