Embodiment 1

[0041] 1. Construction of Glucose Transporter Expression Plasmid

[0042] Based on genome data mining combined with transcriptome data analysis, seven potential glucose transporters GT1, GT2, GT3, GT4, GT5, GT6, GT7 were predicted, the amino acid sequences of which are shown in SEQ ID NO:1-7. Using the upstream primers and downstream primers of each glucose transporter, the cDNA of the citric acid producing strain D strain (purchased from the strain resource bank of Shanghai Industrial Microbiology Technology Co., Ltd. (formerly Shanghai Institute of Industrial Microbiology), public preservation number M202) was Templates were used to amplify the cDNA fragments of each glucose transporter by PCR. The specific primer sequences are shown in Table 1.

[0051] 1. Construction of glucose transporter Aspergillus niger expression plasmid

[0052] The upstream primers and downstream primers of each glucose transporter were used, and the genome of the citric acid producing strain D strain was used as a template to carry out PCR amplification of each glucose transporter gene fragment. The specific primer sequences are shown in Table 2. Although multiple glucose transporters have been reported in Aspergillus niger, the effect of their overexpression on citric acid fermentation is not clear. Therefore, in the present embodiment, 5 reported glucose transporters (MstA, MstC, MstE, MstG, MstH) are simultaneously analyzed, and their sequences are respectively SEQ ID NO: 8, SEQ ID NO: 9, SEQ ID NO: 10, SEQ ID NO: 11 and SEQ ID NO: 12 were overexpressed and detected by citric acid fermentation.

[0074] 1. Construction of glucose transporter / citrate efflux protein Aspergillus niger expression plasmid

[0075] First, the upstream and downstream primers of citrate efflux protein CexA (the amino acid sequence of which is SEQ ID NO: 13) were used to amplify the citrate efflux protein gene fragment by PCR using the genome of citric acid producing strain D as a template. The specific primer sequences are shown in Table 5.

[0078] The PCR reaction system was 10 μL of 5× FastPfu buffer, 1 μL of 10 mM dNTPs, 2.5 μL of upstream / downstream primers, 0.5 μL of DNA template, 1.5 μL of FastPfu (TransGene), and 32 μL of ultrapure water.

[0079] The PCR reaction conditions were: pre-denaturation at 95°C for 5 min; denaturation at 95°C for 30 sec, annealing at 55°C for 30 sec, extension at 72°C for 2 min, 35 cycles; and final extension at 72°C for 10 min.

Abstract

The invention discloses a protein with glucose transport function in filamentous fungi and its application in improving the production of organic acids, belonging to the fields of bioengineering and genetic engineering. At the same time, the invention also discloses a method for constructing an engineering strain and a method for producing organic acid, especially citric acid, using the strain.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of bioengineering and genetic engineering, in particular to a protein with glucose transport function, a construction method and application of an engineering bacterial strain for producing organic acid. Background technique [0002] Aspergillus niger is an extremely important industrial strain in the organic acid and enzyme preparation industry. The global annual output of citric acid produced by Aspergillus niger reaches 2 million tons, with an output value of more than 2 billion US dollars, and is increasing at a rate of 5% per year. Aspergillus niger has a powerful hydrolytic enzyme system that can quickly decompose polyglucose into glucose, which is efficiently transported into the cell by the glucose transport system to supply cell growth and fermentation production. Therefore, glucose transport and absorption directly affect the performance of Aspergillus niger for fermentation and production of orga...
