Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microbial metabolic engineering, and in particular to a method for constructing a genetically engineered bacterium capable of efficiently producing O-acetyl-L-homoserine and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] O-acetyl-L-homoserine (OAH) is an important non-protein synthetic amino acid with the molecular formula of C6H 11 NO4, molecular weight is 161.16. O-acetyl-L-homoserine can hardly accumulate in microbial cells. O-acetyl-L-homoserine is an important platform compound that can be used to synthesize a variety of chemicals, among which methionine is an extremely important one.

[0003] There are two pathways for the synthesis of methionine, the transsulfuration pathway and the direct sulfurization pathway. In the process of transsulfuration of methionine, homoserine is converted to L-homocysteine ​​through three steps (catalyzed by MetA, MetB, and MetC, respectively). Inorganic sulfur is required to first reach cysteine, and then cysteine ​​is used as a sulfur donor. In the direct sulfurization pathway of methionine, homoserine only needs two steps to be converted into L-homocysteine, and MetY directly combines with inorganic sulfur. The advantages of the direct sulfurization pathway are obvious. It synthesizes amino acids used for survival in cells in a simpler way, which is conducive to more carbon flow for the synthesis of target products.

[0004] At present, there have been many studies on the production of O-acetyl-L-homoserine by fermentation of Escherichia coli as the chassis. Wei Liang et al. from the Tiangong Institute redistributed the metabolic flow and used protein engineering to transform the homoserine O-acetyltransferase MetX from Leptospira meyeri, and then regulated the cofactors including acetyl-CoA and NADPH, so that the shake flask yield of O-acetyl-L-homoserine of the engineered strain reached 12.1g / L. Li Bo et al. from Zhejiang University of Technology screened exogenous MetX, knocked out the degradation and competition pathways, and then redistributed the carbon flux of central carbon metabolism, which could accumulate 8.29g / L of O-acetyl-L-homoserine. CJ CheilJedang Co., Ltd. from South Korea achieved the extracellular accumulation of O-acetyl-L-homoserine by increasing the activity of MetX and strengthening the expression of the O-acetyl-L-homoserine extracellular transporter YjeH, and its shake flask yield reached 5.4g / L. These studies have achieved remarkable results, but there is still room for improvement in various indicators of the strain, and the yield can still be further improved. Therefore, improving the production performance of O-acetyl-L-homoserine engineering bacteria is a goal of those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems of low yield and high fermentation cost of O-acetyl-L-homoserine production strains in the prior art in the fermentation production of O-acetyl-L-homoserine, and to provide a construction method of a genetically engineered bacterium for efficiently producing O-acetyl-L-homoserine and its application.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is implemented by the following technical solutions: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for constructing a genetically engineered bacterium for efficiently producing O-acetyl-L-homoserine, which specifically comprises the following steps: (1) Using the strain Escherichia coli W3110 as the chassis, the metA gene encoding homoserine O-succinyltransferase was knocked out; (2) knocking out the gene encoding γ-cystathionine synthase, metB; (3) knocking out metC, the gene encoding cysteine ​​cleavage enzyme; (4) Weakly expressing metYcm, the gene encoding O-acetyl-L-homoserine thiolase from Cyclobacter maritima; (5) Overexpression of the ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase encoding gene rbcLSse from Synechococcus elongatus; (6) Overexpression of the phospholipid kinase encoding gene prkse from Synechococcus elongatus; (7) Weakening the expression of the citrate synthase encoding gene gltA to obtain the genetically engineered bacteria that efficiently produces O-acetyl-L-homoserine.

[0007] The present invention enables the genetically engineered bacteria of O-acetyl-L-homoserine to increase its yield as much as possible, and can enhance the glycolysis flux and weaken the TCA pathway by knocking out the original methionine transsulfurization synthesis pathway, introducing a heterologous methionine direct sulfurization synthesis pathway, and weakening the TCA pathway. The present invention knocks out the homoserine O-succinyltransferase encoding gene metA, the γ-cystathionine synthetase encoding gene metB, and the cysteine ​​lyase encoding gene metC in the previously constructed Escherichia coli Escherichia coli W3110 (i.e., Escherichia coli OAH7-X, disclosed in patent application number CN202410775092.4, application publication number CN118531032A, and provided by the microbial strain collection of Zhejiang University of Technology) to block the intracellular methionine transsulfurization synthesis pathway; express the methionine direct sulfurization synthesis pathway O-acetyl-L-homoserine thiolase encoding gene metY from marine cyclobacillus cm, so that methionine can still be synthesized normally in the cell, and reducing its expression is to reduce the degradation of O-acetyl-L-homoserine. In addition, the methionine transsulfurization pathway requires additional consumption of succinyl-CoA, which can be produced in the TCA cycle and is closely related to cell growth. When replaced with the direct sulfurization pathway, its consumption can be reduced, laying the foundation for the weakening of the TCA cycle and reducing its impact; overexpression of the ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase encoding gene rbcLS from Synechococcus elongatus se and the phosphoribosyl kinase encoding gene prk se , in order to increase the cell's carbon fixation capacity and enhance the flux of glycolysis; the promoter of the citrate synthase encoding gene gltA was replaced with a dynamically regulated promoter, which greatly reduced its transcription in the middle and late stages of fermentation, thereby weakening the TCA cycle. This can not only reduce the additional consumption of acetyl-CoA, provide more acetyl-CoA for the synthesis of O-acetyl-L-homoserine, but also strengthen the L-homoserine synthesis pathway.

[0008] The genes encoding homoserine O-succinyltransferase, γ-cystathionine synthase, cysteine ​​lyase, O-acetyl-L-homoserine thiolase from Cyclobacter maritima, ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase and phospholipid kinase from Synechococcus elongatus, and citrate synthase are generally represented by metA, metB, metC, metY, and metY. cm rbcLS se 、prk se The gene sequences can be obtained from the public database National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).

The present invention further provides a use of Corynebacterium glutamicum producing D-pantothenic acid in the fermentation production of D-pantothenic acid.

[0016] In a third aspect, the present invention further provides a use of a genetically engineered bacterium for efficiently producing O-acetyl-L-homoserine in the fermentation of producing O-acetyl-L-homoserine.

Table 1 Primer list Example 2 Shake flask fermentation experiment

[0073] The above-mentioned bacteria were tested in a fermentation experiment in a shake flask to compare the ability of each genotype strain to produce O-acetyl-L-homoserine. The shake flask fermentation experiment was carried out according to the following scheme: each strain was streaked on an LB plate, cultured in a 37°C incubator overnight, a single colony was picked and inoculated into 5 ml of LB medium, and cultured in a 37°C incubator overnight at a speed of 200 rpm to obtain a seed solution.
