Problems solved by technology

The main disadvantages of this process route are: 1. Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen, and its biological safety needs to be strictly controlled in the production process; 2. A large number of by-products such as acetic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, 2,3 -The synthesis of butanediol makes the whole post-extraction process very complicated; the yield of three and 1,3-propanediol is low, usually the mass yield of 1,3-propanediol to glycerin is lower than 40%
The disadvantage of this process route is that Escherichia coli has poor biological safety, and the fermentation and cultivation of Escherichia coli requires the use of expensive raw material yeast powder, so this technology is not conducive to industrial scale production

Abstract

The invention provides a method for producing 1,3-propylene glycol through fermentation via recombinant microbes. According to the invention, an endogenous dihydroxypropanone phosphatein phosphatase gene hdpA is over-expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum to reinforce removal of phosphoric acid from dihydroxypropanone phosphatein so as to produce dihydroxypropanone; exogenous glycerol dehydrogenase is introduced to convert dihydroxypropanone into glycerin; and glycerin finally produces 1,3-propylene glycol under the action of exogenous glycerol dehydratase and an activator thereof and alcohol dehydrogenase. Corynebacterium glutamicum can use different cheap raw materials for fermentation, and cheap corn steep liquor can be used as a nutritional component to replace expensive yeast powder, so cost for raw materials is further reduced, and the problems in biosecurity and tolerance of the bacterial strain to a substrate and a product are overcome; and thalli obtained in the process of fermentation can be used as a product for a feed additive. The method provided by the invention produces few by-products and can further simplify the separating process of 1,3-propylene glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering and biological fermentation, in particular, a method for efficiently bioconverting fermentable sugar into 1,3-propanediol by a single recombinant microorganism. Background technique [0002] 1,3-Propanediol is an important chemical raw material, which can be used as an organic solvent in ink, printing and dyeing, paint, lubricant, antifreeze and other industries. Its main use is as a monomer for the synthesis of polyester and polyurethane. Especially polymerized with terephthalic acid to form polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT). Compared with PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), PTT has better properties, such as better stain resistance, toughness and resilience, and UV resistance In addition, it has the advantages of wear resistance, low water absorption and low static electricity. Therefore, PTT is considered as an upgraded product of PET and has bro...
