Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an engineered yeast of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for efficiently synthesizing mogroside V based on cytoplasm and lipid droplet dual compartmentalization and a construction method thereof, belonging to the field of bioengineering. Background Art
[0002] Mogroside is a cucurbitane-type triterpenoid saponin primarily derived from Momordica grosvenori. Mogroside IV, mogroside V, and simanoside I are the three sweetest components of mogroside, 392, 425, and 563 times sweeter than sucrose, respectively. Currently, mogroside is primarily produced by extraction. However, due to limitations in upstream raw material cultivation area and climate, large-scale expansion in the short term is difficult. Therefore, there is an urgent need to upgrade the mogroside V industry to reduce production costs and improve efficiency.
[0003] Achieving efficient terpenoid synthesis by constructing plant-derived terpenoid synthesis pathways within microbial hosts based on synthetic biology techniques is a must for future development. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a generally recognized as safe (GRAS) model microorganism, is capable of endogenously synthesizing terpenoid precursors and possesses an intact membrane structure, making it widely used in the synthesis of a variety of plant-derived terpenes. Currently, industrial production of the artemisinin precursor artemisinic acid and the chemical raw material farnesene using Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been achieved, marking a milestone in the metabolic engineering of microbial production of terpenoid natural products. Squalene and mogroside are key precursors for the synthesis of MG-V (mangostinol), directly impacting the yield of MG-V heterologously synthesized in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, squalene is primarily sequestered in lipid droplets and primarily flows into the ergosterol synthesis pathway. The isopentenol utilization pathway (IUP) was constructed in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cytoplasm to increase the levels of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP), promoting squalene synthesis. Squalene epoxidase ERG1 is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of ergosterol and MG-V. The present invention anchors squalene epoxidase ERG1 to lipid droplet subcellular organelles. Using a multi-enzyme complex-directed assembly strategy, cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS, epoxide hydrolase SgEPH3, cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP87D18, and cytochrome P450 enzyme reductase AtCPR1 linearly assemble with ERG1 into a multi-enzyme complex in lipid droplets, reducing competition in the ergosterol pathway and promoting the synthesis of mogrosantheol. Through the ABC efflux pump PDR11 and yeast cell surface display technology, mogroside alcohol in the cytoplasm is excreted to the extracellular space and MG-V is synthesized extracellularly, reducing the cytotoxic effect of MG-V. Thus, an engineered bacterium that efficiently synthesizes mogroside V based on the dual compartmentalization of cytoplasm and lipid droplets was constructed. The engineered bacterium produced mogroside V at a yield of 96.3 mg / L through shake flask fermentation, thereby efficiently synthesizing mogroside V from scratch in brewer's yeast, which has important practical significance for promoting the sustainable development of the mogroside industry.

[0020] The synthesis of mogroside V is carried out in two different regions, wherein the precursor mogroside alcohol is synthesized in the cytoplasm and lipid droplets, and mogroside V is synthesized on the surface of the cell wall.
[0021] The precursor mogroside is transported from the cytoplasm to the extracellular space via the ABC efflux protein PDR11.
[0022] The epoxysqualene cyclase ERG1 and the cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS construct a three-enzyme complex in the cytoplasm in the form of one ERG1 molecule and two SgCDS molecules through the peptide interaction tags RIAD and RIDD.
[0023] In the cytoplasm, epoxysqualene cyclase ERG1, cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS, epoxyepoxide hydrolase SgEPH3, cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP87D18 and cytochrome P450 enzyme reductase AtCPR1 form a linear directional multi-enzyme complex in the cell membrane matrix side through a polypeptide interaction tag and ABC efflux protein PDR11.

[0028] The uridine diphosphate glucose required for the synthesis of mogroside V is provided by sucrose in the culture medium catalyzed by sucrose synthase Susy displayed on the surface of yeast cell walls.
[0029] The coding genes of the MG-V anabolic enzymes are all expressed by the yeast galactokinase (GAL1) gene promoter (nucleotide sequence such as SEQ ID NO.17).
[0030] The present invention also provides an engineered yeast strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for efficiently synthesizing mogroside V based on the dual compartmentalization of cytoplasm and lipid droplets, which is specifically constructed by the above-mentioned construction method.
[0031] The present invention also provides a method for producing mogroside V, which comprises fermenting and producing mogroside V using the engineered yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae provided by the present invention.
[0032] In the present invention, when fermenting to produce mogroside V, YPD medium supplemented with 10 mM sucrose, 10 mM uridine diphosphate (UDP), 21 mM 3-methyl-3-butene-1-ol and 9 mM 3-methyl-2-butene-1-ol is used as the fermentation medium.
[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0034] Mogroside V (MG-V) is a triterpenoid compound, and squalene is the key precursor for its biosynthesis. Most squalene in yeast is mainly stored in lipid droplet subcellular compartments, and squalene mainly flows into the ergosterol synthesis pathway. Among them, squalene epoxidase ERG1 is the key enzyme in the biosynthesis of ergosterol and MG-V, which directly affects the yield of MG-V heterologously synthesized in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
[0035] In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, squalene is primarily sequestered in lipid droplets and primarily flows into the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway. By constructing an isopentenol utilization pathway (IUP) in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cytoplasm, the levels of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) are increased, promoting squalene synthesis. Squalene epoxidase ERG1 is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of ergosterol and MG-V. This study anchors squalene epoxidase ERG1 to lipid droplet subcellular organelles. Using a multi-enzyme complex-directed assembly strategy, cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS, cycloepoxide hydrolase SgEPH3, cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP87D18, and cytochrome P450 reductase AtCPR1 linearly assemble with ERG1 into a multi-enzyme complex within lipid droplets, reducing competition with the ergosterol pathway and promoting mogrosanol synthesis. Specifically, the present invention overexpresses two copies of epoxysqualene cyclase ERG1, wherein one copy of epoxysqualene cyclase ERG1 is anchored in lipid droplets and, through polypeptide interactions, interacts with epoxy hydrolase SgEPH3 and downstream metabolic enzymes such as cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS, cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP87D18 and cytochrome P450 enzyme reductase AtCPR1 to form a linear multi-enzyme complex, thereby facilitating the conversion of squalene in lipid droplets into mogroside alcohol; the other copy of epoxysqualene cyclase ERG1 is anchored in lipid droplets and interacts with epoxy hydrolase SgEPH3 and downstream metabolic enzymes such as cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS, cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP87D18 and cytochrome P450 enzyme reductase AtCPR1 to form a linear multi-enzyme complex. The squalene cyclase ERG1 is expressed in the cytoplasm and assembles a multi-enzyme complex with the epoxide hydrolase SgEPH3 in a 1:2 ratio through a peptide interaction tag. It further assembles into a linear multi-enzyme complex with the epoxide hydrolase SgEPH3 and downstream metabolic enzymes such as cucurbitadienol synthase SgCDS, cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP87D18 and cytochrome P450 enzyme reductase AtCPR1 in the cytoplasm, thereby promoting the conversion of cytoplasmic squalene to mogroside alcohol.
[0036] In addition, the present invention uses the ABC efflux pump PDR11 and yeast cell surface display technology to excrete mogroside alcohol in the cytoplasm to the extracellular space and synthesize MG-V extracellularly, thereby reducing the cytotoxic effect of MG-V. That is, the ABC efflux pump protein PDR11 and the mogroside alcohol synthase are assembled into a multi-enzyme complex to form an integrated synthesis and efflux of mogroside alcohol, thereby promoting the transport of mogroside alcohol to the extracellular space to synthesize MG-V, and reducing the effect of MG-V on yeast cell growth.
