代谢工程改造大肠杆菌通过补救途径合成3-岩藻糖基乳糖
Metabolic Engineering of Escherichia coli to Synthesize 3-Fucosyllactose via the Salvage Pathway
摘要
Abstract
3-Fucosyllactose(3-FL)is a typical human milk oligosaccharides(HMOs)and plays a significant physiological function in the growth and brain development of infants.In this study,efficient biosynthesis of 3-FL was achieved by metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli BL21star(DE3).The α-1,3-fucosyltransferase gene futA from Helicobacter pylori and the L-fucokinase/GDP-L-fucose pyrophosphorylase gene fkp from Bacteroides fragilis were co-introduced into the initial strain,E.coli BL21star(DE3)ΔlacZΔwcaJ,resulting in the production of 1.01 g/L of 3-FL in a shake flask.By using the CRISPR/Cas9 system to delete the genes related to the fucose metabolism pathway,including the L-fucose isomerase gene fucI,the L-fucose kinase gene fucK and the L-rhamnose isomerase gene rhaA,the yield of 3-FL increased to 1.36 g/L.The α-1,3-fucosyltransferase FT1 from H.pylori NCTC11637 was the most effective in 3-FL biosynthesis,and the recombinant strain BLWFA-T expressing FT1 produced 1.56 g/L of 3-FL.Subsequently,the expression level of the fucose metabolism pathway-related genes was optimized,and the recombinant strain BLWFR-T2 expressing fkp through plasmid pETDuet-1 and expressing FT1 through plasmid pRSFDuet-1 produced 2.58 g/L of 3-FL.Finally,the regeneration of the cofactor guanosine triphosphate(GTP)was enhanced,and the recombinant strain BLWFR-T7 overexpressing the guanylate kinase gene gmk and the inosine-guanosine kinase gene gsk produced the highest level of 3-FL(3.01 g/L).After fed-batch fermentation for 78 h,BLWFA-T7 produced the highest yield of 3-FL(27.82 g/L)in a 5 L fermentor.This study provides a research basis for efficient microbial synthesis of 3-FL and other HMOs.关键词
