Problems solved by technology

[0005] The respiratory chain is an important pathway for cellular energy metabolism. When the level of the respiratory chain is high, the cell production rate is high, and the accumulation of reducing equivalent NADH in the cell is small, but many reduced products are commercially profitable. The high level of the respiratory chain is not conducive to the reduced form. Accumulation of products; when the level of respiratory chain is low, cell productivity is low and growth is slow (Metabolic Engineering, 2015, 28:159-168)

Embodiment 1

[0034] Example 1. Construction of recombinant Escherichia coli

[0035] Using MG1655 as the starting strain, red recombination technology is used to knock out the ubiX gene in the production process of coenzyme Q8. The specific operation is as follows:

[0036] The gene ubiX was knocked out by electroporation. The temperature-sensitive plasmid pKD46 is introduced into the host bacteria through calcium transduction to express exo, bet, and gam genes that assist homologous recombination, and are used to prepare electroporation competent. Using the primer ubiX-F with the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and the primer ubiX-R with the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, the genome of the single-gene deletion bacteria containing the kanamycin resistance gene fragment was used as a template to PCR clone about 2000bp DNA fragments. The voltage of electroconversion is 1.8KV, and the current is 5ms. After transformation is completed, use kanamycin (kan) resistance to screen out recombinants, use the ...

[0046] Example 2.pct cp Constitutive promoters of genes optimize expression

[0047] Use the ldhA promoter derived from MG1655 to replace pBADpct cp Central original arabinose promoter. First use the primer PldhA-F with the sequence of SEQ ID NO:9 and the primer PldhA-R with the sequence of SEQ ID NO:10, use MG1655 as a template to PCR a gene of about 300bp containing the ldhA promoter, and use the sequence as SEQ ID Primer pBADpct of NO:11 cp -F and the sequence are primers pBADpct of SEQ ID NO: 12 cp -R to pBADpct cp The plasmid was used as a template for PCR amplification of the 6600bp gene except for the arabinose promoter. Use Clone MultiS One Step CloningKit for one-step connection. Use the primer PldhA-y-F with the sequence of SEQ ID NO:13 and the primer PldhA-y-R with the sequence of SEQ ID NO:14 to verify whether the replacement was successful or not by colony PCR. The strains with correct colony PCR were extracted plasmids and sent for sequencing, the sequen...

Embodiment 3

[0055] Example 3.M9 culture medium fermentation production polymer

[0056] Add 20g / L glucose to M9 medium, add 0.1mM IPTG to induce the expression of phaA, phaB and phaCm, add 50mM L-arabinose (L-arabinose) to induce pct cp gene expression. Incubate at 30°C for 48 hours to evaluate the performance of recombinant bacteria. The recombinant bacteria MG-01, JX04-01 and JX041-01 were used for fermentation. As shown in Table 7, compared with MG-01, the molar percentage of lactic acid component in P(3HB-co-LA) in the polymer produced by recombinant bacteria JX04-01 increased from 5.1% to 9.1%. An increase of 78.4%. And the polymer content is maintained above 75wt%. Using recombinant bacteria JX041-01 for fermentation, compared with MG-01 and JX04-01, the molar percentage of lactic acid component in P(3HB-co-LA) in the polymer further increased to 14.1%. Compared with MG-01, it increased by 176.4%, and compared with JX04-01, it increased by 54.9%, and the polymer content reached...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for increasing the content of lactic acid components in poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-lactic acid) synthesized by Escherichia coli. On the basis of recombinant Escherichia coli E.coli MG-01, the isoflavin is knocked out Pentenyltransferase gene ubiX, and / or knockout of D-lactate dehydrogenase gene dld, and / or replacement expression of propionyl-CoA transferase pct cp The promoter is a constitutive ldhA promoter. The present invention transforms Escherichia coli by means of genetic engineering through the analysis of metabolic pathways and regulation, and the obtained bacterial strain can increase the poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-lactic acid) synthesized in Escherichia coli under aerobic conditions. The mole percentage of the lactic acid component in it.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metabolic engineering, and more specifically, relates to a method and application of finely regulating and controlling monomer components in polyester synthesized by microorganisms. Background technique [0002] Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a biosynthetic polymeric linear polyester that can be used as an intracellular energy and carbon source storage substance. It mostly exists in the form of hydrophobic particles, and its molecular weight generally ranges from tens of thousands to several million Daltons (Biotechnol. Bioeng, 1996, 54:450-472). PHA has attracted extensive attention due to its excellent material properties, such as biorenewability, biodegradability, thermoplasticity, and biocompatibility (Metab Eng, 2016, 35:1-8). [0003] Polyhydroxybutyric acid lactate [P(3HB-co-LA)] is a new member of the PHA family in recent years. The polymerized monomers are derived from 3-hydroxybutyric acid and l...
