Embodiment 1

[0154] (Example 1) Identification of proteins with cysteine ​​or cystine uptake activity

[0155] (1) Obtain a mutant strain that cannot use S-thiocysteine ​​as a single cysteine ​​source (1-1) Obtain a cysE gene-deficient strain from Escherichia coli MG1655 strain (ATCC No. 47076). The cysE gene defect was passed The method called "Red-driven integration" developed by Datsenko and Wanner et al. (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 2000, vol. 97, No. 12, p6640-6645) and a lambda phage-derived excision system (J. Bacteriol. 2000 184.5200-5203 (2002)). Red drive integration and use synthetic oligonucleotides as primers to obtain PCR products. The PCR products can be used to construct gene-disrupted strains in one step. The synthetic oligonucleotides are designed with a part of the target gene on the 5'side, 3' The side design has a part of the anti-biotin resistance gene. In addition, by combining a cut-out system derived from lambda phage, the avidin resistance gene introduced in the ge...

[0187] (Example 2) Cysteine ​​production by Escherichia coli deficient in ydjN and / or fliY

[0188] (1) Construction of Escherichia coli cysteine ​​production strain

[0189] In order to give ydjN and / or fliY deficient E. coli cysteine ​​production capacity, a mutant cysE containing a mutant serine acetyltransferase encoding a reduced feedback inhibition of L-cysteine ​​was constructed (US20050112731(A1)) The plasmid. Specifically, first, in the pACYC-DES construction method described in JP 2005-137369 (US20050124049 (A1), EP1528108 (A1)), a mutation encoding a phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase that is not subject to serine feedback inhibition will be carried. The steps of type serA5 gene (described in US Patent No. 6,180,373) were omitted, and plasmid pACYC-DE1 was constructed. Compared with the pACYC-DES carrying the above-mentioned mutant serA5, the cysEX gene encoding the feedback-inhibited mutant SAT gene, and the ydeD gene encoding the cysteine ​​and acetylserine secretion fac...

[0218] (Example 3) Cysteine ​​production of P.ananatis deficient in ydjN and / or fliY

[0219] (1) Production of P.ananatis cysteine ​​producing strain EYPS1976(s)

[0220] The cysteine ​​producing strain of P.ananatis was constructed according to the following method: cysE5 (U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 20050112731) encoding mutant serine acetyltransferase and encoding mutant 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase were introduced Chem., 1996, 271(38):23235-8), and enhanced yeaS (JP2000189180(A), which encodes secretion factors of various amino acids, and cysPTWA, which encodes sulfur uptake factors. Below, the construction method is described in detail.

Abstract

The invention provides a novel method for producing L-cysteine. The method adopts the gene having the ingesting activity of L-cysteine in the bacterium belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. The present invention provides a bacterium belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae, which is able to produce L-cysteine, and has been modified to decrease activity of the YdjN protein, or the activities of the YdjN and the FliY protein. This bacterium is cultured in a medium, and L-cysteine, L-cystine, a derivative or precursor thereof, or a mixture of these can be collected from the medium.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing L-cysteine ​​or its related substances, in particular to bacteria suitable for the production of L-cysteine ​​or its related substances, and L-cysteine ​​or its related substances using the bacteria The production method of related substances. L-cysteine ​​and its related substances can be used in the fields of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food. Background technique [0002] L-cysteine ​​can be obtained by extraction from keratin-containing materials such as hair, horns, and feathers, or by bacterial enzyme conversion using DL-2-aminothiazolin-4-carboxylic acid as a precursor. In addition, it is also planned to use new enzymes to produce L-cysteine ​​in large quantities through an immobilized enzyme method. [0003] An attempt has also been made to produce L-cysteine ​​by a fermentation method using bacteria. For example, the present inventors disclosed a method for producing L-cysteine ​​using the...
