Abstract

The present invention provides a construction method and application of recombinant Escherichia coli for synthesizing L-cysteine, and the construction method includes the following transformation approaches: (1) adapting L-cysteine ​​expression plasmid pLH03 to Escherichia coli chassis cells, the Chassis cells are K-12 series strains; (2) L-cysteine ​​synthesis pathway genes are expressed individually and / or in combination using constitutive promoters of different strengths; (3) L-Cysteine ​​synthesis pathway genes are individually and / or in combination knocked out Cysteine ​​catabolism pathway gene and its precursor L-serine catabolism pathway gene. The recombinant strain constructed by the invention has less genetic modification, high L-cysteine ​​production and good production and application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bioengineering, and in particular relates to the construction of a strain for biosynthesizing L-cysteine ​​by recombinant Escherichia coli and a method for using the strain for L-cysteine ​​fermentation production. Background technique [0002] L-cysteine ​​(L-cysteine) is an amino acid with active sulfhydryl group. Due to its physiological functions and chemical properties, it is widely used in medicine, food, agriculture, daily chemicals and other industries (Adv.Biochem.Eng.Biotechnol .2017, 159, 129-151). [0003] In the field of medicine, L-cysteine ​​has a special sulfhydryl group, which plays a significant role in the treatment of many types of diseases. In vivo, L-cysteine ​​has detoxification effect on many harmful substances such as formaldehyde. When allergies and inflammations in the body reduce the activity of thiolase, L-cysteine ​​can maintain the activity of thiolase, and has anti-allerg...
