Problems solved by technology

However, due to the poor solubility of substrates such as tyrosine, the production of caffeic acid and the conversion rate of substrates of this type of engineering bacteria are low.
Using L-tyrosine high-yielding strains as the chassis of caffeic acid heterologous synthesis pathway helps to solve this problem, but the effect is not ideal, which is characterized by a longer production cycle and no significant increase in yield

Embodiment 1

[0026] Construction method of recombinant Escherichia coli: TcXAL was optimized and synthesized by GenScript Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and cloned into pUC57-Simple, and the recombinant plasmid was named pUC57-TcXAL. Recombinant vector pUC57-TcXAL and expression vector pET-28a(+) were digested with restriction endonuclease Bam HI / HindIII, the cut products were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis, and the target gene TcXAL (2070bp) and expression vector ( 5368bp). Mix the cleaved target gene and expression vector at a molar ratio of 4:1, and use T4 ligase to ligate overnight at 16°C. The ligation product was transformed into Escherichia coli JM109 competent cells, and LB plates containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin were spread. Positive transformants were verified by colony PCR, and the primer sequences used were SQ4 / SQ5. Transfer the positive transformants to liquid LB medium containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin, culture overnight at 37°C and 220 rpm, extract the plasmid, and transform ...

[0030] Temperature condition optimization in the conversion process of caffeic acid of embodiment 2

[0031]The temperature conditions during the conversion of caffeic acid were optimized. The recombinant E. coli DCA-1 was used as the catalyst, PBS (50mM, pH 7.0) was used as the reaction medium, and the concentration of levodopa was 1g / L. The transformation was carried out under the temperature conditions of 20°C, 25°C, 30°C, 37°C and 42°C respectively, and the rotation speed was set at 220 rpm. Since caffeic acid reached its maximum production at 6 hours, samples were taken at 6 hours to determine the production and conversion of caffeic acid.

[0032] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the results show that the production of caffeic acid increases with the increase of temperature, and when the temperature exceeds 37°C, the production of caffeic acid does not increase but decreases. This may be related to the degradation of caffeic acid under higher temperature conditions. After ...

Embodiment 3

[0033] Example 3 The Effect of pH on the Production Results of Caffeic Acid

[0034] The pH conditions in the conversion process of caffeic acid were optimized, the recombinant E. coli DCA-1 was used as the catalyst, and the concentration of levodopa was 1g / L. Transformation conditions were set at 37°C, 220 rpm. PBS (50 mM) with different pH (6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5) was used as the transformation medium. Samples were taken at 6 hours to measure the yield and conversion rate of caffeic acid.

[0035] Such as Figure 5 As shown, the results showed that the production of caffeic acid increased with the increase of pH, and when the pH exceeded 7.5, the production of caffeic acid began to decrease. This may be related to the easy conversion of caffeic acid into benzoquinones under alkaline conditions. After conversion at 37°C for 6 hours, the caffeic acid reached the maximum yield, namely 910.90 mg / L, with a conversion rate of 99.70%, which is the highest conversion rate ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing caffeic acid with levodopa as a substrate and belongs to the field of biochemical engineering. Caffeic acid is synthesized with levodopa as the substrate. Compared with an past conversion method with L-tyrosine as a substrate, the method is high in substrate solubility, high in yield and high in conversion rate and production efficiency. Compared with a chemical synthesis method, the product of the method is single trans-caffeic acid, and it is not needed to further separate isomeride. The yield of caffeic acid can reach 910.90 mg / L after the reaction is carried out for 6 hours, and the conversion rate is 99.70%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing caffeic acid by using levodopa as a substrate, which belongs to the field of biochemical industry. Background technique [0002] Caffeic acid is a high-value aromatic compound, which can be divided into hydroxycinnamic acid in structure, which has two functional groups of phenolic hydroxyl and acrylic acid. In vivo and in vitro studies have shown that caffeic acid has a range of physiological functions. For example, caffeic acid can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells through an oxidation mechanism; caffeic acid has immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory activities; caffeic acid can also act as an antioxidant, which is superior to other natural compounds; in addition, caffeic acid also has antiviral, antidepressant , treatment of diabetes and other activities. [0003] As a key intermediate metabolite of lignin synthesis, caffeic acid exists in almost all plants. The pathway uses L-tyrosine or...
