Embodiment 1

[0030] Example 1 Escherichia coli BL21 wacJ, lacZ, fucIK gene knockout

[0031] Using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene knockout system to knock out wacJ, lacZ, and fucIK in Escherichia coli BL21, the specific steps are as follows (see Table 1 for the primer sequences involved):

[0032] (1) Using the Escherichia coli BL21 genome as a template, using wcaJ-up-F / R and wcaJ-down-F / R, lacZ-up-F / R and lacZ-down-F / R, fucIK-up-F / R and fucIK-down-F / R were amplified by PCR to amplify the upstream and downstream fragments of wacJ, lacZ, and fucIK, respectively, and the gel was recovered. Then use wacJ, lacZ, fucIK upstream and downstream fragments as templates respectively, using wcaJ-up-F / wcaJ-down-R, lacZ-up-F / lacZ-down-R and fucIK-up-F / fucIK-down-R The primers were used to obtain complete wacJ, lacZ, and fucIK templates by inversePCR, and the DNA fragments were recovered from the gel.

[0033](2) Using the original pTargetF plasmid as a template, wcaJ-sg-F / R, lacZ-sg-F / R and fucIK-sg-F / R as pr...

Abstract

The invention provides an escherichia coli engineering bacterium for producing 2'-fucosyllactose. Through a CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system, related genes of an original strain 2'-fucosyllactose in ananabolic pathway can be knocked out; and a modular metabolic pathway is constructed, the expression level of phosphomannomutase (ManB), mannose-1-phosphateguanylyltransferase (ManC), GDP-mannose-6-dehydrogenase (Gmd), GDP-fucose-synthase (WcaG), L-fucose 1-kinase/GDP-fucose pyrophosphorylase (Fkp) and 2'-fucosyllactose synthetase (FucT2) in the metabolic pathway can be regulated and controlled through different plasmid combinations, so that 2'-fucosyllactose with higher concentration can be accumulated in cells. A method for efficiently producing the 2'-fucosyllactose is also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an Escherichia coli engineering strain producing 2'-fucosyllactose, belonging to the field of microbial genetic engineering. Background technique [0002] Breast milk is generally considered the most important source of nutrition for infants. As the third solid component in breast milk, the synthesis of human milk oligosaccharides plays an important role in the development of intestinal flora in infants and in preventing the adhesion of pathogenic bacteria to epithelial cells. Fucosylated lactose, including 2'-fucosyllactose, 3'-fucosyllactose, lacto-N-fucopentaose, etc., can selectively stimulate the growth of bifidobacteria and form pathogenic Analogues of pathogenic receptors, thereby protecting infants against infection with enteric pathogens, such as Escherichia coli, Vibrio cholerae and Salmonella. 2’-fucosyllactose, as the most abundant component of human milk oligosaccharides, has attracted widespread attention and ha...
