Minimizing endogenous cryptic plasmids to construct antibiotic-free expression systems for Escherichia coli Nissle 1917
The probiotic bacterium Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) holds significant promise for use in clinical and biological industries. However, the reliance on antibiotics to maintain plasmid-borne genes has overshadowed its benefits. In this study, we addressed this issue by engineering the endogenous cryptic plasmids pMUT1 and pMUT2. The non-essential elements were removed to create more stable derivatives pMUT1NR△ and pMUT2HBC△. Synthetic promoters by integrating binding motifs on sigma factors were further constructed and applied for expression of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron heparinase III and the biosynthesis of ectoine. Compared to traditional antibiotic-dependent expression systems, our newly constructed antibiotic-free expression systems offer considerable advantages for clinical and synthetic biology applications.
