Abstract
The biosynthesis of succinic acid from glucose by the previously engineered E. coli strain SUC1.0 (pMW119-kgd) (MG1655 ∆ackA-pta, ∆poxB, ∆ldhA, ∆adhE, ∆ptsG, PLglk, PtacgalP, ∆aceBAK, ∆glcB, ∆sdhAB, pMW119-kgd) was optimized. The yield of the target substance was increased, upon the activation in the strain of the tricarboxylic acid cycle variant mediated by the action of heterologous 2-ketoglutarate decarboxylase, due to the intensification of the anaplerotic formation of oxaloacetic acid. Inactivation of the nonspecific thioesterase YciA in the strain did not considerably change the biosynthetic characteristics of the producer. The enhancement of the expression of native phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase led to an increase in the yield of the target compound by the recombinant synthesizing succinic acid via the reactions of the native tricarboxylic acid cycle from 25 to 42%, and from 67 to 75% upon the induced expression of Mycobacterium tuberculosis 2-ketoglutarate decarboxylase. The expression of the Bacillus subtilis pyruvate carboxylase gene in the strain resulted in an increase in the yield of succinic acid up to 84%. While functioning in whole-cell biocatalyst mode, the engineered strain SUC1.0 PL-pycA (pMW119-kgd) demonstrated a substrate-to-target product conversion ratio reaching 93%, approaching the corresponding theoretical maximum.
期刊介绍:
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original articles on biochemistry and microbiology that have or may have practical applications. The studies include: enzymes and mechanisms of enzymatic reactions, biosynthesis of low and high molecular physiologically active compounds; the studies of their structure and properties; biogenesis and pathways of their regulation; metabolism of producers of biologically active compounds, biocatalysis in organic synthesis, applied genetics of microorganisms, applied enzymology; protein and metabolic engineering, biochemical bases of phytoimmunity, applied aspects of biochemical and immunochemical analysis; biodegradation of xenobiotics; biosensors; biomedical research (without clinical studies). Along with experimental works, the journal publishes descriptions of novel research techniques and reviews on selected topics.
