【目的】槐糖脂是一类生物表面活性剂,不仅具有常规表面活性剂所具有的增溶、乳化、润湿、发泡、分散、降低表面张力等通用性能,且对环境的耐受性极强。熊蜂生假丝酵母(Starmerella bombicola)能够发酵生产槐糖脂,但槐糖脂具有酸型、内酯型和乙酰化型等不同类型,结构多样,难以分离。本文拟通过代谢工程改造,构建高产酸型槐糖脂的熊蜂生假丝酵母工程菌株。【方法】利用潮霉素抗性基因构建了标记基因重复利用系统Rec-six基因编辑系统,在此基础上将合成内酯型槐糖脂的关键基因——内酯酶基因SBLE敲除获得一株只产酸型槐糖脂的工程菌株Δsble,进一步同源过量表达葡萄糖基转移酶基因UGTB并敲除过氧化物酶体膜转运蛋白编码基因PXA1,构建了高产酸型槐糖脂的酵母工程菌。【结果】与出发菌株相比,重组熊蜂生假丝酵母发酵油酸能够合成单一的酸型槐糖脂,而不再合成内酯型槐糖脂,同时酸型槐糖脂的产量由20 g/L提高到44 g/L,提高了2.1倍。【结论】通过敲除PXA1、SBLE和过表达UGTB来改造熊蜂生假丝酵母,能够有效提高重组菌的酸型槐糖脂产量,为发酵法生产酸型槐糖脂奠定了基础。     

Coordinate regulation of phospholipid biosynthesis by serine in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The addition of L-serine to inositol-containing growth medium repressed membrane-associated CDPdiacylglycerol synthase (CTP:phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase, EC 2.7.7.41) and phosphatidylserine synthase (CDPdiacylglycerol:L-serine O-phosphatidyltransferase, EC 2.7.8.8) activities and subunit levels in wild-type Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Enzyme activities and subunit levels were not repressed when inositol was absent from the growth medium. The addition of L-serine to the growth medium did not affect the phospholipid composition of wild-type cells. CDPdiacylglycerol synthase and phosphatidylserine synthase were not regulated in the S. cerevisiae inositol biosynthesis ino2, ino4, and opi1 regulatory mutants, suggesting that regulation by inositol plus L-serine is coupled to inositol synthesis. Inositol and L-serine did not affect the activities of purified CDPdiacylglycerol synthase and phosphatidylserine synthase. The addition of compounds structurally related to L-serine to the growth medium of wild-type cells also resulted in a repression of CDPdiacylglycerol synthase and phosphatidylserine synthase but only in the presence of inositol. Phosphatidylinositol synthase (CDPdiacylglycerol:myo-inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase, EC 2.7.8.11) was not regulated by inositol plus L-serine.     

Regulation of the yeast INO1 gene. The products of the INO2, INO4 and OPI1 regulatory genes are not required for repression in response to inositol

The ino2Delta, ino4Delta, opi1Delta, and sin3Delta mutations all affect expression of INO1, a structural gene for inositol-1-phosphate synthase. These same mutations affect other genes of phospholipid biosynthesis that, like INO1, contain the repeated element UAS(INO) (consensus 5' CATGTGAAAT 3'). In this study, we evaluated the effects of these four mutations, singly and in all possible combinations, on growth and expression of INO1. All strains carrying an ino2Delta or ino4Delta mutation, or both, failed to grow in medium lacking inositol. However, when grown in liquid culture in medium containing limiting amounts of inositol, the opi1Delta ino4Delta strain exhibited a level of INO1 expression comparable to, or higher than, the wild-type strain growing under the same conditions. Furthermore, INO1 expression in the opi1Delta ino4Delta strain was repressed in cells grown in medium fully supplemented with both inositol and choline. Similar results were obtained using the opi1Delta ino2Delta ino4Delta strain. Regulation of INO1 was also observed in the absence of the SIN3 gene product. Therefore, while Opi1p, Sin3p, and the Ino2p/Ino4p complex all affect the overall level of INO1 expression in an antagonistic manner, they do not appear to be responsible for transmitting the signal that leads to repression of INO1 in response to inositol. Various models for Opi1p function were tested and no evidence for binding of Opi1p to UAS(INO), or to Ino2p or Ino4p, was obtained.     

Yeast mutant defective in phosphatidylcholine synthesis

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae opi3-3 mutant was shown to be defective in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine via methylation of phosphatidylethanolamine. The opi3-3 mutant was isolated on the basis of an inositol excretion phenotype and was not auxotrophic for choline. Inositol, but not choline, stimulated growth of the mutant. The opi3-3 mutation was recessive and was genetically linked to the ino4 locus. When grown in the absence of exogenous choline, the opi3-3 mutant had a phospholipid composition consisting of 2 to 3% phosphatidylcholine compared with 40 to 50% in wild-type strains. In addition, the mutant accumulated elevated amounts of two intermediates, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine and phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine. The incorporation of label from [methyl-14C]methionine into phosphatidylcholine was reduced 80 to 90% in the mutant compared with wild-type strains. However, label was recovered in the intermediates phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine and phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine. The mutant is believed to be defective in the third and possibly the second methylation reaction in the formation of phosphatidylcholine from phosphatidylethanolamine. The first methylation reaction appeared to be occurring at normal or even elevated levels. Based upon incorporation of choline into phosphatidylcholine, it is concluded that the opi3-3 mutant has no defect in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine from exogenous choline. Furthermore, phosphatidylcholine represents over 25% of the phospholipid composition of the mutant when it is grown in the presence of exogenous choline.

Production and reutilization of an extracellular phosphatidylinositol catabolite, glycerophosphoinositol, by Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Phosphatidylinositol catabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is known to result in the formation of extracellular glycerophosphoinositol (GroPIns). We now report that S. cerevisiae not only produces but also reutilizes extracellular GroPIns and that these processes are regulated in response to inositol availability. A wild-type strain uniformly prelabeled with [3H] inositol displayed dramatically higher extracellular GroPIns levels when cultured in medium containing inositol than when cultured in medium lacking inositol. This difference in extracellular accumulation of GroPIns in response to inositol availability was shown to be a result of both regulated production and regulated reutilization. In a strain in which a negative regulator of phospholipid and inositol biosynthesis had been deleted (an opi1 mutant), this pattern of extracellular GroPIns accumulation in response to inositol availability was altered. An inositol permease mutant (itr1 itr2), which is unable to transport free inositol, was able to incorporate label from exogenous glycerophospho [3H]inositol, indicating that the inositol label did not enter the cell solely via the transporters encoded by itr1 and itr2. Kinetic studies of a wild-type strain and an itr1 itr2 mutant strain revealed that at least two mechanisms exist for the utilization of exogenous GroPIns: an inositol transporter-dependent mechanism and an inositol transporter-independent mechanism. The inositol transporter-independent pathway of exogenous GroPIns utilization displayed saturation kinetics and was energy dependent. Labeling studies employing [14C]glycerophospho[3H] inositol indicated that, while GroPIns enters the cell intact, the inositol moiety but not the glycerol moiety is incorporated into lipids.

不同宿主来源的重组酿酒酵母混合糖代谢比较

【目的】研究不同工业酿酒酵母宿主背景对重组酵母木糖利用效率的影响。【方法】将木糖利用途径的木糖还原酶(XR)、木糖醇脱氢酶(XDH)和木酮糖激酶(XK)编码基因串联后分别转入3株不同的工业酿酒酵母中,得到重组酵母ZQ1、ZQ5和ZQ7。分别对3个木糖途径代谢基因的表达水平、酶活和重组菌株的木糖发酵效率进行比较。【结果】重组菌株在木糖代谢基因转录、酶活性和木糖利用性能方面有很大差异,其中ZQ5木糖代谢能力最强,ZQ7其次,ZQ1木糖利用能力最弱。ZQ7在初始木糖浓度为20 g/L时木糖利用速率快于ZQ5,表明木糖浓度对重组菌发酵性能评价具有影响。【结论】不同菌株的遗传背景和木糖浓度对重组菌木糖利用的影响很大,评价重组酵母的木糖利用需考虑宿主的遗传背景和底物浓度的影响。     

Regulation of CDP-diacylglycerol synthase activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The addition of ethanolamine or choline to inositol-containing growth medium resulted in a reduction of CTP:phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase (CDP-diacylglycerol synthase; EC 2.7.7.41) activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The reduction of activity did not occur in the absence of inositol. CDP-diacylglycerol synthase activity was not regulated in a S. cerevisiae mutant strain (opi1; an inositol biosynthesis regulatory mutant) by the addition of phospholipid precursors to the growth medium.
