Abstract

The invention discloses a pyruvate response biosensor as well as a construction method and application thereof. The pyruvate response biosensor with different dynamic ranges is successfully constructed in the invention by optimizing a PdhR binding sequence inserted into a P43 promoter and optimizing an insertion site, wherein the minimum dynamic range is increased by 0.6 times, and the maximum dynamic range is increased by 30.7 times. The biosensor can be used for finely controlling the expression quantity of each gene in cells. Pyruvic acid is a key central carbon metabolite in cells, so thatthe biosensors can dynamically regulate and control the expression levels of intracellular genes according to the change of the content of pyruvic acid in the cells, thereby realizing dynamic controlof intracellular metabolic flux. The pyruvate biosensor obtained by the invention has good specificity, and in addition, the response range of the pyruvate biosensor to pyruvic acid is 10-35nmol / g DCW.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pyruvate-responsive biosensor and its construction method and application, belonging to the technical field of metabolic engineering. Background technique [0002] The main purpose of metabolic engineering is to use microorganisms as hosts and biomass as raw materials to efficiently synthesize required chemicals, such as drugs, materials, biofuels, fine chemicals and functional nutrients. However, traditional metabolic engineering techniques (overexpression of genes related to product synthesis pathways, knockout of competing pathways, and optimization of cofactors, etc.) often lead to problems such as intracellular metabolic imbalance, low raw material utilization, and accumulation of toxic metabolites. , making it difficult to maximize compound yield and production intensity. In addition, although the traditional mutation breeding method can quickly obtain a large number of mutant strains, it is difficult to quickly obtain...
