Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biochemical engineering, and in particular to a process for producing ectoine by efficient fermentation. Background Art
[0002] Ectoine (also known as ectoine and ectoine carboxylic acid) is a high-value-added cyclic amino acid and an important biologically active substance with multiple functional properties, such as anti-adversity protection, molecular chaperone, radiation protection and moisturizing effects. It is widely used in cosmetics, medicine, enzyme preparations and other fields.
[0003] At present, the fermentation production process of tetrahydropyrimidine has some shortcomings: 1. High culture medium cost: Existing processes mostly use complex organic nitrogen sources such as yeast powder and peptone, and some processes use mixed carbon source systems, resulting in high raw material costs. At the same time, the complex culture medium components also cause great difficulties in extraction and purification; 2. Low fermentation efficiency: Traditional processes have long fermentation cycles, low conversion rates, and extensive control of parameters such as dissolved oxygen and pH, which limits the increase in production; 3. Difficulty in process scale-up: Laboratory small-scale processes are difficult to effectively scale up to industrial scale. There are problems such as fermentation parameter mismatch and reduced product synthesis efficiency, which restrict the industrialization process.
[0004] With the continuous growth of market demand, the development of efficient and low-cost fermentation production processes for ectoine is of great significance. To address the above problems, the present invention proposes an innovative solution that integrates culture medium optimization, segmented control and scale-up process, realizes efficient fermentation production of ectoine by recombinant Escherichia coli, and achieves high-yield and large-scale industrial production of ectoine, providing new ideas and methods for the industrial production of ectoine.

[0028] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0029] The present invention optimizes the ectoine fermentation process from three aspects: culture medium optimization, segmented control and amplification process.
[0030] The fermentation medium of the present invention includes a base medium and trace elements, specifically as follows:
[0031] Table 1 Composition of base medium in the fermentation medium of the present invention
[0032]
[0033] Table 2 Trace element composition in the fermentation medium of the present invention
[0034]
[0035] The supplementation of trace elements can significantly enhance the metabolic activity of bacteria, which has a positive effect on increasing the yield and conversion rate of ectoine.
[0036] The fermentation process is as follows:
[0037] The ectoine synthesis strain is streaked onto a solid LB culture medium and cultured at 32-40° C. for 16-24 hours; the cultured strain is picked and inoculated into a liquid LB culture medium and cultured at 32-40° C. for 12-20 hours to obtain a first-level seed liquid; the first-level seed liquid is inoculated into a seed tank culture medium with an inoculation amount of 2-10%, and fermentation is carried out at 32-40° C. for 6-10 hours to obtain a second-level seed liquid; the second-level seed liquid is inoculated into a fermentation culture medium of the present invention with an inoculation amount of 5-20%, ampicillin, streptomycin and an inducer IPTG are added, and fermentation is carried out at 32-40° C. for 36-60 hours.
[0038] During the fermentation process, the carbon source is fed with glucose at a concentration of 500-800 g / L. When the base sugar is consumed to 2 g / L, the sugar is fed to maintain the residual sugar concentration at 0.5-10 g / L. Preferably, the residual sugar concentration is maintained at about 2 g / L to avoid substrate inhibition and enable efficient product synthesis. When fermentation is performed in a fermenter, when OD 600 When the reaction temperature reaches 6 to 15, 0.1 mmol of IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside) is added to start the synthesis of ectoine.
[0039] The fermentation process is controlled in stages as follows:
[0040] Initial conditions at 0h: temperature 32-40℃, speed set at 30-200rpm according to the volume of the fermenter, ventilation volume 0.8-1.2VVM, pH 7.0±0.2, automatically controlled by ammonia water; in the initial stage (0-12h), the dissolved oxygen is controlled to be ≥40%, and the speed is maintained at a low level (30-200rpm) to avoid excessive shear force damaging the bacteria; in the middle stage (after 12h), the dissolved oxygen drops below 40%, and the ventilation volume is gradually increased to 3-4VVM, and then the stirring speed is linked to maintain the dissolved oxygen at 18-23%; in the later stage, the speed is first reduced, and then the ventilation volume is reduced to reduce energy consumption.
[0041] During the process of process amplification, the amplification is carried out according to the principle of matching the volume oxygen transfer coefficient and the stirring shear force.
[0042] Example 1
[0043] The strain used in this example is an engineered strain of Escherichia coli MG1655 that expresses the ectABC gene cluster, knocks out the crr gene, and overexpresses the lysC gene. The construction method is described in the Chinese invention patent "CN118028204A Ectoin synthetic strain, its construction method, and application."
