l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (l-DOPA) is an aromatic compound employed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Metabolic engineering was applied to generate
Escherichia coli strains for the production of l-DOPA from glucose by modifying the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) and aromatic biosynthetic pathways.
Carbon flow was directed to the biosynthesis of l-tyrosine (l-Tyr), an l-DOPA precursor, by transforming strains with compatible plasmids carrying genes encoding a feedback-inhibition resistant
version of 3-deoxy-d-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase, transketolase, the chorismate mutase domain from chorismate mutase-prephenate dehydratase
from E. coli and cyclohexadienyl dehydrogenase from Zymomonas mobilis. The effects on l-Tyr production of PTS inactivation (PTS− gluc+ phenotype), as well as inactivation of the regulatory protein TyrR, were evaluated. PTS inactivation caused a threefold increase
in the specific rate of l-Tyr production (q
l-Tyr), whereas inactivation of TyrR caused 1.7- and 1.9-fold increases in q
l-Tyr in the PTS+ and the PTS− gluc+ strains, respectively. An 8.6-fold increase in l-Tyr yield from glucose was observed in the PTS− gluc+
tyrR
− strain. Expression of hpaBC genes encoding the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylacetate 3-hydroxylase from E. coli W in the strains modified for l-Tyr production caused the synthesis of l-DOPA. One of such strains, having the PTS− gluc+
tyrR
− phenotype, displayed the best production parameters in minimal medium, with a specific rate of l-DOPA production of 13.6 mg/g/h, l-DOPA yield from glucose of 51.7 mg/g and a final l-DOPA titer of 320 mg/l. In a batch fermentor culture in rich medium this strain produced 1.51 g/l of l-DOPA in 50 h. 相似文献

Production of 3,4-dihydroxy phenyl-l-alanine (l-DOPA) using an Egyptian isolate of halophilic black yeast was studied. Optimum aeration level and incubation period for high
yield production of l-DOPA were 50 ml medium/250 ml flask with 200 rpm and 36 h, respectively. Two new techniques (addition of aniline or NaCl
to the medium) have been investigated to enhance the monophenolase activity and inhibit or reduce diphenolase activity of
tyrosinase to form high yield of l-DOPA without more oxidation to melanin. Addition of aniline to tyrosine medium at 3 μl/ml medium enhanced l-DOPA production 2.9 fold, however, addition of NaCl at 20% showed the same amount of l-DOPA as the control. Peptone and ram horn hydrolysate were studied as nitrogen sources instead of tyrosine in the medium
and they showed good nitrogen sources for l-DOPA production as tyrosine. Finally, addition of aniline (3 μl/ml) to ram horn hydrolysate was economically feasible and
cost effective for l-DOPA production by Egyptian halophilic black yeast. 相似文献

Summary The degradation of poly(l-glutamic acid) and poly(l-lysine) by X-rays and ultraviolet radiation has been studied at variouspH values, including the helix-coil transition region. It was found that X-rays cause maximum degradation in the transition region for both polypeptides, indicating that the efficiency of degradation is affected not only by the secondary structure but also by some other factors related to the transition. On the contrary, the degradation by monochromatic ultraviolet 2537 radiation showed a strong dependence on helix content of PLGA, suggesting that degradation occurs more effectively in the helical form than in the coil form. Theoretical calculations were made to approximate thepH dependence of degradation, assuming different cross sections for the peptide bonds in helix, coil, and junctions between helical and coil regions. 相似文献

Findings show 21 fungal isolates belonging to eight genera recovered from Egyptian soils that have the potential to attack
l-methionine under submerged conditions. Aspergillus flavipes had the most methioninolytic activity, giving the highest yield of l-methioninase (10.78 U/mg protein), rate of methionine uptake (93.0%), and growth rate (5.0 g/l), followed by Scopulariopsis brevicaulis and A. carneus. The maximum l-methioninase productivity (11.60 U/mg protein) by A. flavipes was observed using l-methionine (0.8%) as an enzyme-inductive agent and glucose (1%) as a co-dissimilated carbon source. A significant reduction
in l-methioninase biosynthesis by A. flavipes was detected using carbon-free medium, suggesting the lack of ability to use l-methionine as a carbon and nitrogen source. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate (0.25%), the best source of phosphorus, favors
enzyme biosynthesis and enhances the level of methionine uptake by A. flavipes. The maximum l-methioninase productivity (12.58 U/mg protein) and substrate uptake (95.6%) were measured at an initial pH of 7.0. 相似文献

Summary The prephenate dehydratase gene was cloned from a mutant of Brevibacterium lactofermentum, AJ11957 that produced enzyme free from feedback inhibition. The recombinant plasmids pPH11 and pPH14 complemented a phenylalanine auxotroph of B. lactofermentum, A-15, provided the transformant with the desensitized enzyme and caused an increased level of the enzyme compared to that of a wild strain. Plasmid pPH14 was introduced into l-phenylalanine producers genetically induced from B. lactofermentum; MF358 and FP-1 excreting l-tyrosine and anthranilate, respectively, as by-products. Both transformants predominantly accumulated l-phenylalanine at the expense of by-product formation. Co-existence of pPH14 and pTAR16, a recombinant plasmid expressing desensitized 3-deoxy-d-arabino-hepturosonate-7-phosphate synthase had a marked effect on further improvement in l-phenylalanine productivity, accompanied by an increase in the corresponding enzyme activity. The parent, MF358, accumulating 5.5 g/l l-phenylalanine, 6.8 g/l l-tyrosine and 0.3 g/l anthranilate turned into a potent l-phenylalanine producer producing 18.2 g/l l-phenylalanine and 1.0 g/l l-tyrosine by-product.

Summary Cells of Escherichia intermedia were immobilized by entrapment in a polyacrylamide gel and used for the enzymatic production of l-tyrosine from phenol, pyruvate, and ammonia. A preparation containing 50 mg of cells/g of gel retained 60% of its original activity. The effect of temperature, pH and substrate concentration on the activity of free cells was almost identical with the effect on immobilized cells. Phenol showed inhibition and inactivation of the catalyst at high concentration. Synthesis of l-tyrosine (up to 10 g/l) was demonstrated in batch reactors with high conversion yields (95–100%) and a maximal productivity of 2 g/l/h. In continuous reactor the catalyst showed a very high operational stability (more than 54 days without losses). 相似文献

Bacillus coagulans has been of great commercial interest over the past decade owing to its strong ability of producing optical pure l-lactic acid from both hexose and pentose sugars including l-arabinose with high yield, titer and productivity under thermophilic conditions. The l-arabinose isomerase (L-AI) from Bacillus coagulans was heterologously over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The open reading frame of the L-AI has 1,422 nucleotides encoding a protein with 474 amino acid residues. The recombinant
L-AI was purified to homogeneity by one-step His-tag affinity chromatography. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated
to be 56 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was most active at 70°C and pH 7.0. The metal ion Mn2+ was shown to be the best activator for enzymatic activity and thermostability. The enzyme showed higher activity at acidic
pH than at alkaline pH. The kinetic studies showed that the K
m, V
max and k
cat/K
m for the conversion of l-arabinose were 106 mM, 84 U/mg and 34.5 mM−1min−1, respectively. The equilibrium ratio of l-arabinose to l-ribulose was 78:22 under optimal conditions. l-ribulose (97 g/L) was obtained from 500 g/l of l-arabinose catalyzed by the enzyme (8.3 U/mL) under the optimal conditions within 1.5 h, giving at a substrate conversion
of 19.4% and a production rate of 65 g L−1 h−1. 相似文献

The l-rhamnose isomerase gene (L
-rhi) encoding for l-rhamnose isomerase (l-RhI) from Bacillus pallidus Y25, a facultative thermophilic bacterium, was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli with a cooperation of the 6×His sequence at a C-terminal of the protein. The open reading frame of L
-rhi consisted of 1,236 nucleotides encoding 412 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 47,636 Da, showing a
good agreement with the native enzyme. Mass-produced l-RhI was achieved in a large quantity (470 mg/l broth) as a soluble protein. The recombinant enzyme was purified to homogeneity
by a single step purification using a Ni-NTA affinity column chromatography. The purified recombinant l-RhI exhibited maximum activity at 65°C (pH 7.0) under assay conditions, while 90% of the initial enzyme activity could be
retained after incubation at 60°C for 60 min. The apparent affinity (K
m) and catalytic efficiency (k
cat/K
m) for l-rhamnose (at 65°C) were 4.89 mM and 8.36 × 105 M−1 min−1, respectively. The enzyme demonstrated relatively low levels of amino acid sequence similarity (42 and 12%), higher thermostability,
and different substrate specificity to those of E. coli and Pseudomonas stutzeri, respectively. The enzyme has a good catalyzing activity at 50°C, for d-allose, l-mannose, d-ribulose, and l-talose from d-psicose, l-fructose, d-ribose and l-tagatose with a conversion yield of 35, 25, 16 and 10%, respectively, without a contamination of by-products. These findings
indicated that the recombinant l-RhI from B. pallidus is appropriate for use as a new source of rare sugar producing enzyme on a mass scale production. 相似文献

Summary
Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13 032 produces 13 g/l l-isoleucine from 200 mM -ketobutyrate as a synthetic precursor. In fed batch cultures up to 19 g/l l-isoleucine is formed. For optimal conversion the addition of 0.3 mM l-valine plus 0.3 mM l-leucine to the fermentation medium is required. The affinity constants for the acetohydroxy acid synthase (AHAS) were determined. (This enzyme directs the flow of -ketobutyrate plus pyruvate towards l-isoleucine and that of two moles of pyruvate to l-valine and l-leucine, respectively.) For -ketobutyrate the K
m is 4.8×10-3 M, and V
max 0.58 U/mg, for pyruvate the K
m is 8.4×10-3 M, and V
max 0.37 U/mg. Due to these characteristics the presence of high -ketobutyrate concentrations apparently results in a l-valine, l-leucine deficiency. This in turn leads to a derepression of the AHAS synthesis from 0.03 U/mg to 0.29 U/mg and high l-isoleucine production is favoured. The derepression of the AHAS synthesis induced by the l-valine, l-leucine shortage was directly proven with a l-valine, l-leucine, l-isoleucine auxotrophic mutant where the starvation of each amino acid resulted in an increased AHAS level. This is in accordance with the fact that only one AHAS enzyme could be verified by chromatographic and electrophoretic separations as being responsible for the synthesis of all three branched-chain amino-acids. 相似文献

Summary Five proteases were isolated from the digestive fluid of the lugworm, Arenicola marina L. The enzymes (molecular weight 24.0–24.6 kDa) were classified as serine proteases. Three enzymes showed a cleavage specificity corresponding to mammalian trypsin (E.C. 3.4.21.4). One protease possessed a chymotrypsin-like cleavage pattern (E.C. 3.4.21.1), and the fifth preferred cleavage behind short-chain amino acids like an elastase (E.C. 3.4.21.36). Detailed investigations revealed differences in molecular characteristics and cleavage patterns compared to mammalian proteases, especially in the chymotrypsin- and the elastase-like enzymes.Abbreviations APNE

Histidine decarboxylase production from Lactobacillus hilgardii 5w, isolated from wine, was inhibited by the presence of l-malic acid in the basal culture medium. The inhibition was related to l-malic acid concentration. The maximal production of the enzyme at 12 h of culture incubated at 30°C was inhibited 71% by 2 g/L l-malic acid and 47% by 0.5 g/L. In these conditions l-malic acid consumption was 16% and 20% respectively. The addition of 300 mg/L citric acid to the basal medium stimulated the enzyme production from 9 to 45 nmoles/min/mg dry weight, and the increase was correlated with citric acid concentration. When different concentrations of l-malic acid were added to the basal medium plus 200 mg/L citric acid, reversion of stimulation was observed, achieving the maximum at a concentration of 2 g/L. In this case, citric acid comsumption was not modified, whereas L-malic acid utilization was higher. 相似文献

The l-phenylalanine (l-Phe) production by Escherichia
coli WSH-Z06 (pAP-B03) was frequently prevented by bacteriophage BP-1 infestation. To cope with the bacteriophage BP-1 problem
for an improved l-Phe production, one bacteriophage BP-1-resistant mutant, E. coli BR-42, was obtained from 416 mutant colonies of E. coli WSH-Z06 after N-methyl-N’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) mutagenesis by selection for resistance to bacteriophage BP-1. The recombinant E. coli BR-42-carrying plasmid pAP-B03 had a high capacity in l-Phe production and a remarkable tolerance to 1 × 1010 pfu (plaque-forming unit)/ml bacteriophage stock. For an enhanced l-Phe production by E. coli BR-42 (pAP-B03), the effects of different feeding strategies including pH–stat, constant rate feeding, linear decreasing
rate feeding, and exponential feeding on l-Phe production were investigated; and a two-stage feeding strategy, namely exponential feeding at μ
set = 0.18 h−1 in the first 20 h and a following linear varying rate feeding with F = (−0.55 × t + 18.6) ml/h, was developed to improve l-Phe production. With this two-stage feeding approach, a maximum l-Phe titer of 57.63 g/l with a high l-Phe productivity (1.15 g/l/h) was achieved, which was 15% higher than the highest level (50 g/l) reported so far according
to our knowledge. The recombinant E. coli BR-42 (pAP-B03) is a potential l-Phe over-producer in substantial prevention of bacteriophage BP-1 infestation compared to its parent strain WSH-Z06 (pAP-B03). 相似文献

Indole-3-Acetic Acid (IAA) Production in Symbiotic and Non-Symbiotic Nitrogen-Fixing Bacteria and its Optimization by Taguchi Design 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Production of Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in 35 different symbiotic and non-symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria strains isolated
from soil and plant roots was studied and assayed by chromatography and colorimetric methods. These bacteria included Agrobacterium, Paenibacillus, Rhizobium, Klebsiella
oxytoca, and Azotobacter. The best general medium and synergism effects of isolates for IAA production were investigated. Effects of different variables
containing physical parameters and key media components and optimization of condition for IAA production were performed using
the Design of Experiments. Qualitek-4 (W32b) software for automatic design and analysis of the experiments, both based on
Taguchi method was used. The results showed that Rhizobium strains, symbiotic, and Paenibacillus non-symbiotic bacteria yielded the highest concentrations of IAA (in the range of 5.23–0.27 and 4.90–0.19 ppm IAA/mg biomass,
respectively) and IAA production was increased by synergism effect of them. Yeast Extract Mannitol medium supplemented with
l-tryptophan was the best general medium for IAA production. The analysis of experimental data using Taguchi method indicated
that nitrogen source is very prominent variable in affecting the yield and mannitol as carbon source, potassium nitrate (1%),
and l-tryptophan (3 g/l) as nitrogen sources after 72-h incubation at 30°C were the optimum conditions for production of IAA. 5.89 ppm
IAA/mg biomass was produced under these optimal conditions. 相似文献

Summary We report the kinetics of endogenous l-valine in the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum, in an effort to understand the enhancing effect of externally supplemented l-valine on the production of the immunosuppressant cyclosporin A (CyA) in chemically defined medium. In a batch laboratory stirred reactor cultivation, the concentration of intracellular l-valine increased by up to four times between the end of the exponential phase and the beginning of the stationary phase when the medium was supplemented externally with 4 g/1 l-valine. The final CyA titre under these conditions was 710 mg/1 compared to only 130 mg/1 attained without l-valine supplementation. In contrast to substantial growth-associated production of CyA in unsupplemented culture, the formation of the immunosuppressant was prolonged during the stationary phase in l-valine-supplemented medium. As a result, the conversion yield of CyA on l-valine remained constant during the stationary phase at 0.27 g CyA/g l-valine. 相似文献

l--Chloroalanine is a useful intermediate for the synthesis of several l-amino acids. Conditions for synthesizing optically pure l--chloroalanine from 3-chloropyruvate using alanine dehydrogenase (AlaDH), leucine dehydrogenase and phenylalanine dehydrogenase with a regeneration of NADH by formate dehydrogenase (FDH) were investigated. The enzymatic reaction was carried out at neutral pH because of a chemical instability of 3-chloropyruvate on the alkaline side. Commercially available AlaDH from Bacillus stearothermophilus IFO 12550 showed the highest activity for the production of l--chloroalanine at pH 7.5. The K
m and V
max values for 3-chloropyruvate of AlaDH were calculated to be 300 units/mg and 62.5 mm, respectively. Although 3-chloropyruvate had no inhibitory effect on AlaDH, it acted as a non-competitive inhibitor with FDH. 3-Chloropyruvate was added into the reaction mixture in a stepwise manner to avoid the inhibition. l--Chloroalanine was produced with high chemical (>90%) and optical yields (100% enantiometric excess) and at a high concentration (43 g/l). 相似文献

This study is the first utilizing Vitreoscilla hemoglobin in a heterologous bacterium, Enterobacter aerogenes, to determine the effect of such a highly efficient oxygen-uptake system on the production of l-asparaginase, an enzyme that has attracted considerable attention due to its anti-tumor activity. Here, we show that the Vitreoscilla hemoglobin expressing strain has from 10-fold to more than two orders of magnitude lower l-asparaginase activity than the wild type or the control without the Vitreoscilla hemoglobin gene under different aeration conditions. Aeration and agitation were also determining factors for enzyme production. The enzyme activity was reduced considerably under both full aerobic and anaerobic conditions, while the highest enzyme activity was determined in cultures under low aeration and low agitation. Also, the effect of different concentrations of glucose on enzyme production showed catabolic repression. Glucose at 1% caused almost total inhibition of enzyme activity, while at 0.1% it showed a slightly stimulatory effect on enzyme production, compared with glucose-free medium. 相似文献

Strategies for the improvement of salidroside production in cell suspension cultures of Rhodiola sachalinensis 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Strategies of elicitation and precursor feeding were applied to improve salidroside production in cell suspension cultures
of Rhodiola sachalinensis. Of the seven elicitors examined, that extracted from Aspergillus niger was the most effective, increasing the salidroside content by five-fold when added on the day of inoculation 40 mg carbohydrate is medium. Three
possible precursors for salidroside synthesis, l-phenylalanine, l-tyrosol and l-tyrosine were added to the cultures. A high content of salidroside (1.440%) was attained with an initial l-tyrosol concentration of 0.5 mm in the medium. Combined application of the two strategies resulted in a significantly high salidroside content of 1.734%,
corresponding to a salidroside yield of 200 mg/l.

A stable and fast l-tryptophan producer, AGX1757, was isolated from Escherichia coli W3110 trpAE1 trpR tnaA, which carried pSC101-trpI15·14. Cells of AGX1757 did not lose the composite plasmid during fermentation. Whenever a fed-batch culture of AGX1757 attained an l-tryptophan concentration of about 30 g/l, indole began to appear in the broth. The emergence of indole was caused by inhibition of tryptophan synthase due to accumulated l-tryptophan. Hence, the production rate of l-tryptophan sharply decreased. A higher solubility of l-tryptophan in the supernatant of culture broth (about 32 g/l) than that in the initial medium (about 22 g/l) was attributed to some unknown interaction between l-tryptophan and certain macromolecular material(s) coming from the bacterial cells. An addition of non-ionic detergents into the supernatant was effective for decreasing the solubility of l-tryptophan, hence causing crystallization of l-tryptophan. Pluronic L-61 was supplied from outside to an extent of 0.5% in terms of wt% concentration at around 45 h of fermentation when the l-tryptophan accumulated reached about 25 g/l. This addition actually caused crystallization of l-tryptophan and, as a result, the inhibitory effect of tryptophan synthase by l-tryptophan accumulated in the broth could be alleviated. Thus far, further fermentation became possible. l-Tryptophan of more than 50 g/l was finally produced by feeding solutions of both glucose and anthranilic acid.

Recombinant strains of Escherichia coli K-12 for the production of the three aromatic amino acids (l-phenylalanine, l-tryptophan, l-tyrosine) have been constructed. The largest demand is for l-phenylalanine (l-Phe), as it can be used as a building block for the low-calorie sweetener, aspartame. Besides l-Phe, an increasing number of shikimic acid pathway intermediates can be produced from appropriate E. coli mutants with blocks in this pathway. The last common intermediate, chorismate, in E. coli not only serves for production of aromatic amino acids but can also be used for high-titer production of non-aromatic compounds,
e.g., cyclohexadiene-transdiols. In an approach to diversity-oriented metabolic engineering (metabolic grafting), platform
strains with increased flux through the general aromatic pathway were created by suitable gene deletions, additions, or rearrangements.
Examples for rational strain constructions for l-phenylalanine and chorismate derivatives are given with emphasis on genetic engineering. As a result, l-phenylalanine producers are available, which were derived through several defined steps from E. coli K-12 wild type. These mutant strains showed l-phenylalanine titers of up to 38 g/l of l-phenylalanine (and up to 45.5 g/l using in situ product recovery). Likewise, two cyclohexadiene-transdiols could be recovered. 相似文献
