Abstract
Indigo is a unique blue dye that has been used in the textile industry for centuries and is currently mass-produced commercially through chemical synthesis. However, the use of toxic substrates and reducing agents for chemical synthesis is associated with environmental concerns, necessitating the development of eco-friendly alternatives based on microbial production. In this study, a robust industrial strategy for indigo production was developed using Pseudomonas putida KT2440 as the host strain, which is characterized by its excellent ability to degrade aromatic compounds and high resistance to environmental stress. By introducing the genes tryptophanase (tnaA) and Flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO), a P. putida HI201 strain was constructed to produce indigo from tryptophan. To enhance the indigo yield, culture conditions, including medium composition, temperature, tryptophan concentration, and shaking speed, were optimized. Under optimal conditions such as TB medium, 15 mM tryptophan, 30°C, 200 rpm, P. putida HI201 biosynthesized 1.31 g/L indigo from tryptophan in a fed-batch fermentation system. The introduction of tnaA and FMO genes also enabled the production of indigo in various P. putida species, and the indigo-producing strain had a blue color, which served as a visual indicator. This study presents a strategy for using P. putida as a host for robust and sustainable microbial production of indigo, highlighting the strain's applicability and efficiency in environment friendly dye synthesis.
期刊介绍:
Enzyme and Microbial Technology is an international, peer-reviewed journal publishing original research and reviews, of biotechnological significance and novelty, on basic and applied aspects of the science and technology of processes involving the use of enzymes, micro-organisms, animal cells and plant cells.
We especially encourage submissions on:
Biocatalysis and the use of Directed Evolution in Synthetic Biology and Biotechnology
Biotechnological Production of New Bioactive Molecules, Biomaterials, Biopharmaceuticals, and Biofuels
New Imaging Techniques and Biosensors, especially as applicable to Healthcare and Systems Biology
New Biotechnological Approaches in Genomics, Proteomics and Metabolomics
Metabolic Engineering, Biomolecular Engineering and Nanobiotechnology
Manuscripts which report isolation, purification, immobilization or utilization of organisms or enzymes which are already well-described in the literature are not suitable for publication in EMT, unless their primary purpose is to report significant new findings or approaches which are of broad biotechnological importance. Similarly, manuscripts which report optimization studies on well-established processes are inappropriate. EMT does not accept papers dealing with mathematical modeling unless they report significant, new experimental data.
