Abstract

The invention discloses a method for efficiently producing mevalonic acid from fatty acid and a constructed gene engineering bacterium. The method comprises the following steps: overexpressing a fatty acid transport protein gene (fadL) and an acyl-CoA synthetase gene (fadD) in an Escherichia coli, thus obtaining a recombinant Escherichia coli; and using the recombinant Escherichia coli to produce the mevalonic acid through fermentation. According to the method disclosed by the invention, long-chain fatty acid is used as a carbon source for synthesis of the mevalonic acid, the mevalonic acid yield can be up to 230mg / L, and the productivity can be up to 56%. The method disclosed by the invention can also be used for producing isoprene taking mevalonic acid as an intermediate product and terpenoid compounds synthesized by taking isoprene as a unit through fermentation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for efficiently utilizing fatty acids to produce mevalonate and the constructed genetically engineered bacteria. Background technique [0002] Mevalonate is an intermediate metabolite of isoenzyme pyrophosphate (IPP) produced by the mevalonate pathway, and is an important intermediate in the synthesis of sterols, terpenoids, and isoprenoids. At the same time, it also has important uses in the chemical industry. At present, the synthesis of mevalonate mainly includes enzymatic synthesis, combined synthesis of biocatalysis and chemical catalysis, chemical synthesis, etc., but there are problems such as rare raw materials, complicated steps, pollution of the environment, and high cost. Valeric acid can well solve the above problems. In biological cells, mevalonate is obtained from acetyl coenzyme A through a three-step catalytic reaction. There is only one optically active mevalonate in the synthetic product, which has h...
