利用甘油发酵耦联生产3-羟基丙酸及1,3-丙二醇重组菌的构建及筛选

在肺炎克雷伯杆菌(Klebsiella pneumoniae)代谢甘油生产1,3-丙二醇(1,3-PD)的过程中,为了减少有毒中间产物3-羟基丙醛(3-HPA)的积累,可将其转化为3-羟基丙酸(3-HP),从而实现1,3-丙二醇和3-羟基丙酸的联产。克隆来自于酿酒酵母的NAD+依赖型的乙醛脱氢酶(ALDH)的基因aldh4,构建了表达载体pKP-aldh,转化K.pneumoniae,得到了有效表达乙醛脱氢酶的重组肺炎克雷伯杆菌(K.pneumoniae A+)。在此基础上,使用紫外诱变联合菌种驯化的方法对K.pneumoniae A+进行筛选,获得了可耐受较高3-HP浓度(≥35 g/L)的重组肺炎克雷伯杆菌K.pneumoniae A+5-3。发酵实验结果表明,K.pneumoniae A+5-3可将3-HPA转化为3-HP,能够同时利用甘油耦联生产3-HP和1,3-PD,产量分别达到5.0 g/L和74.5 g/L。

聚羟基丁酸路径在克雷伯氏菌中的构建

以生物柴油的副产物甘油生产高附加值的1,3-丙二醇,现已成为提升生物柴油产业链经济性的重要途径,而中间代谢产物3-羟基丙醛积累造成细胞死亡,发酵异常终止是生物法生产1,3-丙二醇过程中的关键问题。不同于传统的降低3-羟基丙醛积累的思路,本文从增强克雷伯氏菌对3-羟基丙醛的抗逆性出发,改善克雷伯氏菌1,3-丙二醇的生产性能,首次将聚羟基丁酸路径引入克雷伯氏菌中,构建了新型基因工程菌,并对其1,3-丙二醇发酵性能及聚羟基丁酸代谢进行了初步的研究。经IPTG诱导,工程菌中检测到聚羟基丁酸,其含量随IPTG浓度增加而增大。优化的IPTG浓度为0.5 mmol/L。初始甘油50 g/L时,野生菌可正常发酵生产1,3-丙二醇,1,3-丙二醇浓度达到22.1 g/L,其质量得率为46.4%。当初始甘油达到70 g/L时,由于高浓度3-HPA积累,野生菌发酵终止,而工程菌可正常发酵生产1,3-丙二醇,PDO产量可达31.3 g/L,其质量得率为43.9%。同时检测到聚羟基丁酸积累。研究结果有助于加深对克雷伯氏菌1,3-丙二醇代谢机理的认识,为克雷伯氏菌的进一步优化提供了新的思路。     

Decrease of 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde accumulation in 1,3-propanediol production by over-expressing <Emphasis Type="Italic">dha</Emphasis>T gene in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Klebsiella pneumoniae</Emphasis> TUAC01

Glycerol can be biologically converted to 1,3-propanediol, a key raw material required for the synthesis of polytrimethylene terephthalate and other polyester fibers. In 1,3-propanediol synthesis pathway, 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) was an inhibitory intermediary metabolite. The accumulation of 3-HPA in broth would cause an irreversible cessation of the fermentation process. With the object of reducing 3-HPA level in the fermentation broth, dhaT gene which encodes 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (PDOR) was cloned and over expressed in 1,3-propanediol producing bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae TUAC01. dhaT gene was linked downstream of the ptac promoter in an expressing vector pDK6 to form plasmid pDK-dhaT. The newly formed pDK-dhaT was transformed to K. pneumoniae TUAC01. Under the inducement of IPTG, PDOR was over-expressed when the constructed strain was cultured on an LB medium or a fermentation medium. A 5 L scale-up fermentation experiment was done to test the 3-HPA accumulation in broth, with the initial substrate glycerol 30 g/L; the peak levels of 3-HPA in broth were 7.55 and 1.49 mmol/L for control host strain and the constructed strain, respectively. In 50 g/L initial glycerol experiment, the peak level of 3-HPA in broth was 12.57 and 2.02 mmol/l for the control host strain and the constructed strain, respectively. Thus the fermentation cessation caused by the toxicity of 3-HPA was alleviated in the constructed strain.     

Inactivation of aldehyde dehydrogenase: a key factor for engineering 1,3-propanediol production by Klebsiella pneumoniae

Production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) from glycerol by Klebsiella pneumoniae is restrained by ethanol formation. The first step in the formation of ethanol from acetyl-CoA is catalyzed by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), an enzyme that competes with 1,3-PD oxidoreductase for the cofactor NADH. This study aimed to improve the production of 1,3-PD by engineering the ethanol formation pathway. An inactivation mutation of the aldA gene encoding ALDH in K. pneumoniae YMU2 was generated by insertion of a tetracycline resistance marker. Inactivation of ALDH resulted in a nearly abolished ethanol formation but a significantly improved 1,3-PD production. Metabolic flux analysis revealed that a pronounced redistribution of intracellular metabolic flux occurred. The final titer, the productivity of 1,3-PD and the yield of 1,3-PD relative to glycerol of the mutant strain reached 927.6 mmol L(-1), 14.05 mmol L(-1)h(-1) and 0.699 mol mol(-1), respectively, which were much higher than those of the parent strain. In addition, the specific 1,3-PD-producing capability (1,3-PD produced per gram of cells) of the mutant strain was 2-fold that of the parent strain due to a lower growth yield of the mutant. By increasing NADH availability, this study demonstrates an important metabolic engineering approach to improve the efficiency of oxidoreduction-coupled bioprocesses.

High-level expression of the 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase from klebsiella pneumoniae in escherichia coli

As one of four key enzymes in glycerol dismutation process, 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (EC.1.1.1.202) is important in converting glycerol to 1,3-propanediol in Klebsiella pneumoniae. The dhaT gene encoding 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the genome DNA of K. pneumoniae as template, and then cloned into cloning vector pMD18-T. After DNA sequence was determined, the dhaT gene was subcloned into Escherichia coli expression vector pET-22b (+) and pET-28a (+). Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis revealed that both the recombinant E. coli BL21 (DE3) (pET-22b (+)-dhaT) and E. coli BL21(DE3)(pET-28a (+)-dhaT) expressed predicted 42-kDa 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase after induced by isopropyl-β-d-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), and the recombinant enzyme of E. coli BL21 (DE3) (pET-28a (+)-dhaT) was mostly in soluble form, and exhibited high activity (96.8 U/mL culture). The recombinant enzyme was purified and biochemically characterized. The apparent K _m values of the enzyme for 1,3-propanediol and NAD⁺ were 8.5 and 0.21 mM, respectively. The enzyme had maximum activity at pH 9.5 and 30°C.
