Wautersia eutropha was able to synthesize medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) when canola oil was used as carbon source. W. eutropha was cultivated using fructose and ammonium sulphate as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, for growth and inoculum development. The experiments were done in a laboratory scale bioreactor in three stages. Initially, the biomass was adapted in a batch culture. Secondly, a fed-batch was used to increase the cell dry weight and PHA concentration to 4.36 g L(-1) and 0.36 g L(-1), respectively. Finally, after the addition of canola oil as carbon source a final concentration of 18.27 g L(-1) PHA was obtained after 40 h of fermentation. With canola oil as carbon source, the polymer content of the cell dry matter was 90%. The polymer was purified from dried cells and analyzed by FTIR, NMR and DSC using PHB as reference. The polymer produced by W. eutropha from canola oil had four carbon monomers in the structure of the PHA and identified by 1H and 13C NMR analysis as 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV), 3-hydroxyoctanoate (3HO), and 3-hydroxydodecanoate (3HDD). 相似文献

High-yield production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) by Ralstonia eutropha KCTC 2662 was investigated using soybean oil and γ-butyrolactone as carbon sources. In flask culture, it was shown that R. eutropha KCTC 2662 accumulated PHAs during the growth phase. The optimum carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N ratio) giving the highest cell and PHA yield was 20 g-soybean oil/g-(NH(4))(2)SO(4). The 4-hydroxybutyrate (4HB) fraction in the copolymer was not strongly affected by the C/N ratio. In a 2.5-L fermentor, a homopolymer of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] was produced from soybean oil as the sole carbon source by batch and fed-batch cultures of R. eutropha with dry cell weights of 15-32 g/L, PHA contents of 78-83 wt% and yields of 0.80-0.82 g-PHA/g-soybean oil used. By co-feeding soybean oil and γ-butyrolactone as carbon sources, a copolymer of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB-co-4HB)] could be produced with dry cell weights of 10-21 g/L, yields of 0.45-0.56 g-PHA/g-soybean oil used (0.39-0.50g-PHA/g-carbon sources used) and 4HB fractions of 6-10 mol%. Higher supplementation of γ-butyrolactone increased the 4HB fraction in the copolymer, but decreased cell and PHA yield. 相似文献

Several recombinant Escherichia coli strains, including XL1-Blue, JM109, HB101, and DH5alpha harboring a stable high-copynumber plasmid pSYL105 containing the Alcaligenes eutrophus polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biosynthesis genes were constructed. These recombinant strains were examined for their ability to synthesize and accumulate poly-(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HB-co-3HV)] copolymer from glucose and either propionate or valerate. All recombinant E. coli strains could synthesize the P(3HB-co-3HV) copolymer in the medium containing glucose and propionate. However, only the homopolymer poly-(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] was synthesized from glucose and valerate. The PHA concentration and the 3HV fraction could be increased by inducing with acetate and/or oleate. When supplemented with oleate, the 3HV fraction increased by fourfold compared with that obtained without induction. Induction with propionate resulted in lower PHA concentration due to the inhibitory effect, but an 3HV fraction of as high as 33.0% could be obtained. These results suggest that P(3HB-co-3HV) can be efficiently produced from propionate by recombinant E. coli by inducing with acetate, propionate, or oleate. (c) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The synthesis of bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) is very much dependent on the expression and activity of a key enzyme, PHA synthase (PhaC). Many efforts are being pursued to enhance the activity and broaden the substrate specificity of PhaC. Here, we report the identification of a highly active wild-type PhaC belonging to the recently isolated Chromobacterium sp. USM2 (PhaC(Cs)). PhaC(Cs) showed the ability to utilize 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV), and 3-hydroxyhexanoate (3HHx) monomers in PHA biosynthesis. An in vitro assay of recombinant PhaC(Cs) expressed in Escherichia coli showed that its polymerization of 3-hydroxybutyryl-coenzyme A activity was nearly 8-fold higher (2,462 ± 80 U/g) than that of the synthase from the model strain C. necator (307 ± 24 U/g). Specific activity using a Strep2-tagged, purified PhaC(Cs) was 238 ± 98 U/mg, almost 5-fold higher than findings of previous studies using purified PhaC from C. necator. Efficient poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] accumulation in Escherichia coli expressing PhaC(Cs) of up to 76 ± 2 weight percent was observed within 24 h of cultivation. To date, this is the highest activity reported for a purified PHA synthase. PhaC(Cs) is a naturally occurring, highly active PHA synthase with superior polymerizing ability. 相似文献

The ability of Delftia acidovorans to incorporate a broad range of 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV) monomers into polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) copolymers was evaluated in this study. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HB-co-3HV)] containing 0–90 mol% of 3HV was obtained when a mixture of sodium 3-hydroxybutyrate and sodium valerate was used as the carbon sources. Transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed an interesting aspect of the P(3HB-co-3HV) granules containing high molar ratios of 3HV whereby, the copolymer granules were generally larger than those of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] granules, despite having almost the same cellular PHA contents. The large number of P(3HB-co-3HV) granules occupying almost the entire cell volume did not correspond to a higher amount of polymer by weight. This indicated that the granules of P(3HB-co-3HV) contain polymer chains that are loosely packed and therefore have lower density than P(3HB) granules. It was also interesting to note that a decrease in the length of the side chain from 3HV to 4-hydroxybutyrate (4HB) corresponded to an increase in the density of the respective PHA granules. The presence of longer side chain monomers (3HV) in the PHA structure seem to exhibit steric effects that prevent the polymer chains in the granules from being closely packed. The results reported here have important implications on the maximum ability of bacterial cells to accumulate PHA containing monomers with longer side chain length. 相似文献

The production of poly-hydroxyalkanoates (PHA) from the activated sludge subjected to conditions with various oxidationreduction potentials (ORPs) was investigated. By controlling the dissolved oxygen concentration in the cultural media, the ORP were kept at preset levels of ?20, ?10, 0, and +10 mV. With glucose as the dedicated carbon source, we have demonstrated a correlating relationship with the ORP’s in the culture media to the PHA accumulation rate, the PHA production-yield, cell growth rate, glucose uptakes and 3-hydroxybutyrate to 3-hydroxyvalerate (HB/HV) mole ratios in the PHA copolymers. The highest PHA production yield of 0.26 g/g with HB/HV mole ratio of 8.03 was achieved at +10 mV ORP. We concluded that oxygen plays an important role in PHA accumulation and HB/HV mole ratio activated sludge-to-copolymer PHA conversion process. 相似文献

Production of targeted poly(3-hydroxyalkanoates) copolymers by glycogen accumulating organisms using acetate as sole carbon source 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
One of the main limitations in bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production with mixed cultures is the fact that primarily polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) homopolymers are generated from acetate as the main carbon source, which is brittle and quite fragile. The incorporation of different 3-hydroxyalkanoate (HA) components into the polymers requires the addition of additional carbon sources, leading to extra costs and complexity. In this study, the production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB)-co-3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV)-co-3-hydroxy-2-methylvalerate (3HMV)), with 7-35C-mol% of 3HV fractions from acetate as the only carbon source was achieved with the use of glycogen accumulating organisms (GAOs). An enriched GAO culture was obtained in a lab-scale reactor operated under alternating anaerobic and aerobic conditions with acetate fed at the beginning of the anaerobic period. The production of PHAs utilizing the enriched GAO culture was investigated under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. A polymer content of 14-41% of dry cell weight was obtained. The PHA product accumulated by GAOs under anaerobic conditions contained a relatively constant proportion of non-3HB monomers (30+/-5C-mol%), irrespective of the amount of acetate assimilated. In contrast, under aerobic conditions, GAOs only produced 3HB monomers from acetate causing a gradually decreasing 3HV fraction during this aerobic feeding period. The PHAs were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The data demonstrated that the copolymers possessed similar characteristics to those of commercially available poly(3HB-co-3HV) (PHBV) products. The PHAs produced under solely anaerobic conditions possessed lower melting points and crystallinity, higher molecular weights, and narrower molecular-weight distributions, compared to the aerobically produced polymers. This paper hence demonstrates the significant potential of GAOs to produce high quality polymers from a simple and cheap carbon source, contributing considerably to the growing research body on bacterial PHA production by mixed cultures. 相似文献

Production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) by high-cell-density cultivation of Aeromonas hydrophila 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The newly screened Aeromonas hydrophila produces copolymer consisting of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydroxyhexanoate (3HHx). The characteristics of cell growth and polymer accumulation were examined using various carbon sources. P(3HB-co-3HHx) was produced from lauric acid and oleic acid only. P(3HB-co-3HHx) content can be increased by limitation of phosphorus. A maximal P(3HB-co-3HHx) content of 28.8 wt% could be obtained in flask culture. By applying the optimally designed nutrient feeding strategy, cell dry weight, P(3HB-co-3HHx) content, and 3HHx fraction obtained over the course of 43 h were 95.7 g/L, 45.2 wt%, and 17 mol%, respectively, resulting in a productivity of 1.01 g polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA)/L. h. 相似文献

This work revealed for the first time the possible use of a newly isolated Bacillus aryabhattai PKV01 for poly-β-hydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) production from fermentative sweet sorghum juice. Its growth and PHA production were investigated under different pH and nitrogen sources. Medium composition was optimized using statistical tools. The highest biomass and PHA content were reached at pH 6.5 with the use of urea. Plackett-Burman design was then applied to test the relative importance of medium components and process variables on cell growth and PHA production. Cell growth and PHAs production were affected by total sugar and urea and were subjected to optimize the sorghum juice medium using response surface methodology (RSM) via central composite design (CCD). The predicted optimal culture composition was achieved. Maximum dry cell weight and PHAs were obtained using a flask and almost double the amount was achieved using a bioreactor. After PHA recovery, the structure and thermal properties were characterised and revealed to be similar to the standard of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB). 相似文献

A newly acquired polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) producing Bacillus spp. was identified to be a strain of Bacillus cereus using a range of microbiological and molecular techniques. This strain, named B. cereus SPV, was found to be capable of using a wide range of carbon sources including glucose, fructose, sucrose, various fatty acids and gluconate for the production of PHAs, an advantage for the commercial production of the polymers. The media used for the polymer production was novel in the context of the genus Bacillus. The PHA, once produced, was found to remain at a constant maximal concentration, without any degradation, a great advantage for the commercial production of the PHAs. This particular strain of Bacillus spp. was able to synthesize various PHAs with 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV) and 4-hydroxybutyrate (4HB)-like monomer units from structurally unrelated carbon sources such as fructose, sucrose and gluconate. This is the first report of the incorporation of a 4HB related monomer containing PHA by the genus Bacillus and from structurally unrelated carbon sources. The PHAs isolated had molecular weights ranging between (0.4 and 0.8) x 10(6) and low polydispersity index values (M(W)/M(N)) ranging from 2.6 to 3.4. 相似文献

Whey permeate from dairy industry was hydrolyzed enzymatically to cleave its main carbon source, lactose, to glucose and galactose. The hydrolysis products were chosen as carbon sources for the production of poly-3-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) by Pseudomonas hydrogenovora. In shaking flask experiments, the utilization of whey permeate as a cheap substrate was compared to the utilization of pure glucose and galactose for bacterial growth under balanced conditions as well as for the production of PHB under nitrogen limitation. After determination of the inhibition constant Ki for sodium valerate on biomass production (Ki=1.84 g/l), the biosynthesis of PHA co-polyesters containing 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV) units from hydrolyzed whey permeate and valerate was investigated. The application of hydrolyzed whey permeate turned out to be advantageous compared with the utilization of pure sugars. Therefore, fermentation under controlled conditions in a bioreactor was performed with hydrolyzed whey permeate to obtain detailed kinetic data (maximum specific growth rate, mu max=0.291/h, maximum polymer concentration, 1.27 g/l PHB), values for molecular mass distribution (weight average molecular weight Mw=353.5 kDa, polydispersity index PDI=3.8) and thermo analytical data. The fermentation was repeated with co-feeding of valerate (maximum specific growth rate, mu(max)=0.201/h, maximum polymer concentration, 1.44 g/l poly-(3HB-co-21%-3HV), weight average molecular weight M(w)=299.2 kDa, polydispersity index PDI=4.3). 相似文献

It has been shown that poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) of predetermined molecular weight can be obtained by varying the growth conditions of the producer strain, Azotobacter chroococcum 7B: pH, temperature, aeration, presence of sodium acetate as an additional carbon source, or growth on crude complex carbon sources (molasses, vinasse, or starch). High-molecular-weight polymer can be obtained at pH 7.0, optimal for the culture (1485 kDa), temperature 30-37 degrees C (1600-1450 kDa, respectively), and low aeration (2215 kDa). The following factors decrease PHB MW: pH deviation to the acidic (pH 6.0, 476 kDa) or alkaline (pH 8.0, 354 kDa) range or lower temperature (20 degrees C, 897 kDa). Introduction of additional carbon source (sodium acetate) at concentrations in the medium varying from 0 to 5 g/l provides an original method of production of PHB with predetermined MW in a wide range, from 270 to 1515 kDa, with high PHB content in the cell. 相似文献

Summary Copolyesters of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV) have been produced by Alcaligenes eutrophus in nitrogenfree culture solutions of butyric and pentanoic acids. When pentanoic acid was used as the sole carbon source, a copolyester with an unusually high 3HV fraction of 90 mol% was produced. Copolyesters with a wide range of compositions (0–90 mol% 3HV) were obtained by using butyric and pentanoic acids together as carbon sources. The biosynthetic pathways of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) were investigated using [1-13C]acetate and [1-13C]butyrate. It is suggested that butyric and pentanoic acids are incorporated into the copolyester as 3HB and 3HV units respectively without decomposition of the carbon skeletons in the cell. 相似文献

The formation of poly(3-hydroxyalkanoic acid), PHA, by various strains of chemolithotrophic and phototrophic bacteria has
been examined. Chemolithotrophic bacteria were grown aerobically under nitrogen-limiting conditions on various aliphatic organic
acids. Phototrophic bacteria were grown anaerobically in the light on a nitrogen-rich medium and were subsequently transferred
to a nitrogen-free medium containing acetate, propionate, valerate, heptanoate or octanoate as carbon source. All 41 strains
investigated in this study were able to synthesize and accumulate PHA. All 11 strains of chemolithotrophic bacteria and all
15 strains belonging to the non-sulfur purple bacteria synthesized a polymer, which contained 3-hydroxy-valerate (3HV) beside
3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), if the cells were cultivated in the presence of propionate, valerate or heptanoate. Many non-sulfur
purple bacteria synthesized copolyesters of 3HB and 3HV even with acetate as carbon source. In contrast, most sulfur purple
bacteria did not incorporate 3HV at all. Among 15 strains tested, only Chromatium vinosum strain 1611, C. purpuratum strain BN5500 and Lamprocystis roseopersicina strain 3112 were able to synthesize polyesters containing 3HV with propionate, valerate or heptanoate as carbon source. 相似文献

Thirty-seven soil isolates and mutants ofAzotobacter chroococcum tested for poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production using Sudan black B staining method were found to be positive. One mutant
showed a higher number of PHB-producing cells and maximum number of granules per cell. Using 2% glucose and 15 mmol/L ammonium
acetate, PHB production was found to be maximum at 36 and 48 h of growth under submerged cultivation and under stationary
cultivation, respectively. PHB production was found to be higher on sucrose and commercial sugar (as carbon sources) as compared
to glucose and mannitol. As commercial sugar is cheaper than sucrose it was selected as carbon source for PHB production,
that being found to be maximum at 1% concentration. Inorganic nitrogen sources seemed to have no stimulatory effect on the
production of PHB. However, ammonium acetate (15 mmol/L) was found to be best for PHB production. Peptone (0.2 %) gave a better
yield of PHB under both growth conditions. Using all optimized conditions, PHB production was studied in ten selected strains.
Two of them were found to be best PHB producers under both growth conditions, one producing 621 and 740 μg/g dry mass under
submerged cultivation and under stationary cultivation, respectively, while the second one produced 589 and 733 μg/g. 相似文献

A locally isolated Gram-negative bacterium, Cupriavidus sp. USMAA2-4 was found capable of producing terpolymer poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB-co-3HV-co-4HB)] using γ-butyrolactone or 1,4-butanediol with either valeric acid or 1-pentanol as the carbon source. The present of
3HB, 3HV and 4HB monomers were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. PHA concentration
of 1.9 g/l was the highest value obtained using the combination of 1,4-butanediol and 1-pentanol through one-step cultivation
process. PHA concentration obtained through two-step cultivation process was higher for all the combinations and the highest
value achieved was 2.5 g/l using γ-butyrolactone and 1-pentanol as carbon source. Various molar fractions of 4HB and 3HV ranging
from 6 to 14 mol% and 39 to 87 mol%, respectively were produced through two-step cultivation process by manipulating the concentration
of γ-butyrolactone. As the culture aeration was reduced, the molar fraction of 3HV and 4HB increased from 40 to 67 mol% and
10 to 24 mol%, respectively while the dry cell weight and PHA content decreased. The terpolymer produced was characterized
using gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The number-average molecular weight
(M
n) and the melting temperature (T
m)) of the terpolymer were in the range of 177–484 kDa and 160–164°C, respectively. 相似文献

Degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by soil streptomycetes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The ability of 64 soil streptomycetes to degrade poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] was evaluated on Pridham and Lyons mineral salts agar medium overlayered with the same medium containing 0.2% P(3HB). The streptomycete isolates were grown on this overlayered medium and the degradation was detected by the formation of clear zone surrounding the growth. Four potent degrader isolates identified as species of Streptomyces were selected. Degradation of P(3HB) by these isolates was studied for a period of 8 days. The rate of degradation increased with increase in concentration of P(3HB) in the medium while it decreased with the supplementation of readily utili- zable carbon sources like glucose, fructose and sucrose. All four isolates also degraded the copolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate [P(3HB–co–3HV)] in solid medium but to a lesser extent. However, the isolates were equally efficient in degrading P(3HB) in liquid medium. 相似文献

The paper deals with the study of the synthesis of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV) copolymers by the bacterium Ralstonia eutropha B-5786 grown under different carbon nutrition conditions (growth on carbon dioxide, fructose, and CO2-valerate and fructose-valerate mixtures). The parameters to be analyzed included the yield of biomass, the yield, synthesis rate, and composition of copolymers, the activity of the key enzymes of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthesis (beta-ketothiolase, acetoacetyl-CoA reductase, and PHA synthase), the maximum tolerable concentration of valerate to the bacterium, and the conditions that govern the incorporation of hydroxyvalerate to copolymers. This allowed the relationship between cultivation conditions and the proportion of monomers in the copolymers to be deduced. We were able to synthesize a range of 3HB/3HV copolymers and found that the thermal characteristics and the degree of crystallinity of these copolymers depend on the molar fraction of 3HV. 相似文献
