Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of bioengineering, and particularly to a method for constructing a recombinant Yarrowia lipolytica with high tyrosol production and its application. Background Art

[0002] Tyrosol, scientific name: 4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)phenol, and its chemical structural formula is shown as Formula I:

[0003]

[0004] Tyrosol mainly exists in olive oil and is a powerful natural antioxidant. It has significant effects in anti-hypoxia, anti-fatigue, anti-radiation, anti-cancer, anti-aging, regulating body immunity, etc. It is mainly used as an intermediate in medicine and spice synthesis, such as synthesizing cardiovascular drugs metoprolol, betaxolol, etc. (D’Angelo C, Franceschelli S, Quiles JL, et al. Wide biological role of hydroxytyrosol: possible therapeutic and preventive properties in cardiovascular diseases[J]. Cells, 2020, 9(9):1932.). At the same time, tyrosol can also be used as a flavoring agent for alcoholic beverages and plays an important role in improving the taste of alcoholic beverages, especially in sake, beer, and wine (Chinese Patent CN110452865A). In addition, tyrosol also has antibacterial, anti-corrosion, etc. effects and can extend the shelf life of food to ensure the health and safety of consumers (Almanza-Aguilera E, Davila-Cordova E, -Fort D, et al. Correlation Analysis between Dietary Intake of Tyrosols and Their Food Sources and Urinary Excretion of Tyrosol and Hydroxytyrosol in a European Population[J]. Antioxidants, 2023, 12(3):715.). It is precisely because of the high value of tyrosol that it is highly favored in the market and has broad market prospects.

[0005] Traditionally, tyrosol is mainly obtained by direct extraction from olive leaves, but this method faces problems such as large planting area, long growth cycle and climate influence, and has low economic benefits. There are many existing chemical synthesis processes, such as phenol and its phenol derivative synthesis method, carboxylic acid synthesis method, phenylethanol synthesis method, p-nitrotoluene synthesis method and other processes. There are many synthesis methods for p-hydroxyphenylethanol, but at present, the only method that truly realizes industrial production in China is to use phenol and its derivatives and phenylethanol as raw materials for synthesis, and the two synthesis methods are relatively mature in process research. Taking the phenylethanol synthesis method as an example, most of them adopt the method of protecting the hydroxyl group first, then nitrifying, reducing, diazotizing, and hydrolyzing to obtain p-hydroxyphenylethanol, with a yield of 70%. In this approach, in the process of reducing the nitro group to the amino group, researchers can obtain amines with different yields using different catalysts. The main catalysts are platinum black and tin dichloride, and the yields obtained are 90% and 88% respectively. This process has a high yield, but its disadvantage is that the price of the raw material phenylethanol is expensive and the supply is tight. Other chemical synthesis processes, such as the p-nitrotoluene synthesis method, have relatively low raw material prices, more sources of goods, and lower costs, but the steps are long, the yield is low, and it is unfavorable for the protection of the environment; the p-hydroxystyrene synthesis method has a yield of 96% and a purity of 99%. Both the yield and the purity are very high, and have certain value, but the large amount of inputs in the cost of raw materials has also restricted large-scale industrial production (Chinese patent CN106754607A). In addition, since tyrosol is an important raw material for food, medicine, and health products, the product obtained by chemical method is not popular with people.

[0006] Compared with plant extraction and chemical synthesis, microbial fermentation has a short growth cycle and can be produced around the clock. It also has the advantages of low cost, mild conditions, and less environmental pollution, and is currently a hot topic of research. As an unconventional oil-producing yeast, Yarrowia lipolytica has a natural Ehrlich pathway and a high-throughput pentose phosphate pathway, and as a Crabtree-negative yeast, it is very suitable for industrial production. Therefore, using Yarrowia lipolytica to produce tyrosol is an economical and efficient way. In the prior art, there is a lack of microorganisms that can efficiently produce tyrosol.

After digesting the plasmid pUC-A08-ScADH with the restriction endonuclease NotⅠ from NEB, the linearized pUC-A08-ScADH plasmid was recovered by agarose gel electrophoresis for yeast transformation.

[0069] 2. Construction of recombinant plasmid pUC-HUH-IntA-ScADH

[0111] Yarrowia lipolytica Po1fΔku70, the initial bacterium, and the recombinant bacteria 1-9 in Example 2 were respectively used to produce tyrosol. The specific method was as follows: The initial bacterium and the recombinant bacteria were activated and cultured in YPD liquid medium at 30 °C and 220 rpm for 16 h to obtain the seed liquid. The seed liquid was inoculated into 50 mL of fermentation medium at an inoculation amount of 1% v / v and shaken at 30 °C and 220 rpm for 5 days. After fermentation, the fermentation broth was transferred to a 50 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 5 min, and the supernatant was taken for liquid-phase detection of the tyrosol concentration. Subsequently, the remaining samples were decanted, placed in an oven (75 °C) and dried to a constant weight for measuring the biomass.

[0112] The fermentation medium formula was: 20 g / L peptone, 20 g / L yeast extract and 20 g / L glucose, and the solvent was water.

[0113] (II) Qualitative and quantitative analysis of tyrosol

[0115] Detection conditions: Diode array detector, equipped with a C18 reverse chromatographic column, mobile phase A liquid was: pure acetonitrile, mobile phase B liquid was: 1 L ddH 2 O + 0.1% v / v formic acid, the mobile phase concentration gradient was: 0 - 5 min, 10% A liquid; 5 - 10 min, 10% - 20% A liquid; 10 - 20 min, A liquid linearly increased from 21% to 95%; 20 - 23 min, 95% A liquid; 23 - 30 min, 10% A liquid. The detection wavelength was 280 nm, the column oven temperature was 30 °C, and the mobile phase flow rate was 1 mL / min.

[0116] After 5 days of fermentation, a certain amount of tyrosol was detected in Yarrowia lipolytica Po1fΔku70, as Figure 4 shown. The tyrosol yields of recombinant strains 1-9 (YL-1 to YL-9) were 100.3, 273.5, 181.7, 627.8, 883.4, 1023.9, 1146.1, 1210.5, and 1452.2 mg / L, respectively. Among them, the recombinant strain 9 had the highest tyrosol yield, reaching 1452.2 mg / L, that is, 1452.2 mg of tyrosol was produced per liter of fermentation broth, which was significantly higher than that of the initial strain and recombinant strain 2. The recombinant strain 9 was named Yarrowia lipolytica XJ-TL strain.

[0119] The recombinant strain 9 was inoculated into 50 mL of seed culture medium (YPD medium) and cultured at 30 °C and 220 rpm for 24 h, and then the seed liquid was inoculated into a 5 L fermenter at an inoculation amount of 5% v / v. 2.5 L of fermentation medium was added to the 5 L fermenter. During the fermentation for 0-48 h, the dissolved oxygen was controlled at 20%; when the fermentation time was more than 48 h, the dissolved oxygen was controlled at 0-5%. During the fermentation process, the pH value was constantly controlled at 5.5 until the end of fermentation. Feedings were carried out at 40 h and 96 h of fermentation, and 800 mL of an aqueous solution containing 11.1 g of ammonium sulfate and 900 g / L of glucose was added each time per liter. The fermentation temperature was 28 °C and the culture time was 6 days. Among them, the components of the fermentation medium were 20 g / L of glucose, 20 g / L of yeast extract, and 20 g / L of peptone. After 5 days of fermentation, the highest tyrosol yield of the recombinant strain 9 reached 9262.8 mg / L, that is, 9262.8 mg of tyrosol was produced per liter of fermentation broth (Table 3), which was significantly higher than that of the initial strain and recombinant strain 2.
