Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and relates to a method for constructing a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant that produces high levels of 3-hydroxypropionic acid. Background Technology
[0002] 3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is an isomer of lactic acid, containing a hydroxyl group at one end and a carboxyl group at the other. It ranked third among the 12 most important platform chemicals updated in 2004, and the U.S. Department of Energy listed 3-HP as one of the most promising chemical products of the 21st century. As a hydroxyl-functionalized carboxylic acid, 3-HP is a promising platform chemical with diverse applications, including the production of adhesives, plastic packaging, fibers, detergents, and resins. It can also be converted into various valuable products such as acrylic acid, acrylates, and 1,3-propanediol. The production of 3-HP mainly consists of two methods: chemical and biological. However, chemical methods are not eco-friendly due to the high cost of initial materials and the generation of toxic substances during the production process. Therefore, eco-friendly biological methods have attracted the attention of researchers. Bacteria can be used to ferment sugars into organic acids, but under large-scale organic acid production conditions, bacteria exhibit certain drawbacks: as organic acids are produced, the acidity of the fermentation medium becomes increasingly stronger. However, most bacteria capable of producing organic acids perform poorly in strongly acidic environments, resulting in slow acid production or even bacterial death, making large-scale biological production of 3-HP economically unfeasible.
[0003] In recent years, yeast has been widely used in industrial production to produce organic acids from glucose. Compared with bacteria, yeast has a high tolerance to organic acids; its activity is not significantly inhibited even under highly acidic conditions, making it a more suitable host for organic acid production. In particular, yeast is routinely and widely used in the production of spirits and industrial ethanol. Yeast can be cultured on a large scale and is not contaminated by bacteriophages, making it more suitable for use in the chemical industry than bacteria. Therefore, the development of yeast as a gene-editing vector has become a popular research direction.
[0004] Global transcription factors can specifically regulate the transcriptional level of thousands of genes in the cellular genome. By mutating global transcription factors, the transcription of some genes can be turned off or enhanced, thereby obtaining strains with specific target phenotypes. In 2012, Zhang et al. (Chong H, Geng H, Zhang H, et al. Enhancing…) E. Escherichia coliIsobutanol tolerance through engineering its global transcription factor cAMP receptor protein (CRP) [J]. Biotechnology and bioengineering, 2014, 111(4): 700-708.) Random mutations of the global transcription factor cAMP receptor protein (CRP) yielded *E. coli* strains capable of tolerating 1.2% (v / v) butanol. Therefore, by mutating global transcription factors, the metabolism of microorganisms can be optimized, thereby obtaining an ideal cell phenotype. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0022] Example 1 The pJfapO-fapR plasmid was introduced into the *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* strain CEN.PK113-5D. The pJfapO-fapR plasmid was provided by Professor Hou Jin of Shandong University, with the reference being "Screening Phosphorylation Site Mutations in Yeast Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase Using Malonyl-CoA Sensor to Improve Malonyl-CoA-Derived Product". The pJfapO-fapR plasmid backbone is the pCRCT plasmid, specifically composed of plasmids derived from *Bacillus subtilis* (…). Bacillus subtilis Codon-optimized fapR The TEFI-GALI heterozygous promoter was obtained by fusing the upstream activating region (203 bp) of the TEF1 promoter with the core region (147 bp) of the GAL1 promoter. fapO The sequence was inserted 7 bp downstream of the TATA box of the GAL1 promoter and replaced the original sequence to obtain the GAL1p(7)FapO heterozygous promoter; the green fluorescent protein gene was then fused using fusion PCR. yeGFP The plasmid pJfapO-fapR was obtained by fusing it with the GAL1p(7)fap heterozygous promoter. The plasmid was then transformed into Saccharomyces cerevisiae. When the concentration of malonyl-CoA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was low, the transcription of GFP was inhibited. When the concentration of malonyl-CoA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae gradually increased, the fluorescence intensity increased with the increase of malonyl-CoA concentration, and gradually approached the level when transcription was not inhibited.
[0023] The chemical transformation method for Saccharomyces cerevisiae plasmids is as follows: (1) Acquisition of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D: Saccharomyces cerevisiae were inoculated into 5 mL of YPD liquid medium (10 g / L yeast extract, 20 g / L protein, 20 g / L glucose, pH 5.5) and cultured at 30℃ and 200 rpm for 12-16 h; approximately 700 μL of the culture was transferred to 50 mL of YPD liquid medium and cultured at 30℃ and 200 rpm for 3-5 h (OD). 600(Value 0.6-0.8), centrifuge to collect the precipitate, wash twice with sterile water to obtain competent bacterial cells; (2) Transform pJfapO-fapR plasmid into Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D competent cells: Mix Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D competent cells, 5 μL of 10 mg / mL salmon sperm DNA, 240 μL of 0.5 g / mL polyethylene glycol (PEG) aqueous solution (PEG molecular weight 3350 Da), 35 μL of 1.0 M lithium acetate solution, 70 μL of water and plasmid (plasmid concentration approximately 1-5 μg), pipette to mix well, incubate at 30℃ for 30 min, then heat shock at 42℃ for 30 min; centrifuge at 3000×g for 15 s, remove the supernatant, add 200 μL of ddH2O, gently pipette to mix well, spread on SC-LEU plates, and incubate at 30℃ for 2-3 days.
[0024] Example 2 The global transcription factor library was imported into the *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* strain obtained in Example 1. The sites in the global transcription factor library were domains and residues identified from protein sequences, as well as residues or regions of interest selected from literature using directed evolution methods. The computational information for these domains and residues was obtained from the Yeast Genome Database (SGD), SUPERFAMILY, PROSITE, Gene3D, SMART, Pfam, and PDB. The global transcription factor library plasmid consisted of CRISPR guide sequences (Cas9 protein and scaffold series) at mutation sites and a homologous recombination template. The plasmid backbone was the *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* pCRCT plasmid, with the reference being "Transcriptional regulatory networks involved in C3-C4 alcohol stress response and tolerance in yeast."
[0025] After the global transcription factor library was introduced into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae obtained in Example 1 using the aforementioned transformation method, it was plated on SC-LEU-URA plates for screening. The plates were observed using a gel imaging system, and fluorescent positive clones were obtained through screening. Subsequently, these positive clones were subjected to first-generation sequencing (Sanger sequencing) to finally identify and obtain the desired target mutant strain.
[0026] This study found that by introducing global transcriptional regulators, the effects of these regulators on *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* were significantly improved.

[0029] Screening of high-malonyl-CoA-producing *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* strains: The presence of increased malonyl-CoA was verified using a microplate reader. Sixteen mutant *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* strains were inoculated into 96-well microplates containing 150 μL of SC-LEU-URA medium and incubated overnight at 30°C and 600 rpm. Each strain was performed in triplicate, with wild-type *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* CEN.PK113-5D serving as a control. After 24 hours, the OD value of the mutant strains at 600 nm was measured using a microplate reader, and fluorescence was detected under excitation conditions of 485 nm and emission conditions of 535 nm. Cellular fluorescence intensity (au) was used to represent the fluorescence level; higher fluorescence intensity indicated a higher malonyl-CoA content in the *Saccharomyces cerevisiae*.
[0030] The results are as follows Figure 2 The fluorescence intensity of most mutant strains was much greater than that of the control strains, with the fluorescence intensity concentrated at 4.0 × 10⁻⁶. 7 ~1.0×10 8 Among them, PGD1 (S123S) had the highest fluorescence intensity, while FHL1 (G349N) had the lowest fluorescence intensity.
[0031] Example 3 The mutant strain from Example 2 was passaged multiple times in SC-LEU medium (5 g / L ammonium sulfate, 0.7 g / L leucine-deficient medium, 1.7 g / L amino-free yeast nitrogen source, 20 g / L glucose) until the aforementioned library editing plasmid was lost. Then, a 3-HP production plasmid (such as...) was introduced. Figure 3 As shown, the backbone of the 3-HP production plasmid is the pCRCT plasmid, in which the key gene, bifunctional malonyl-CoA reductase (MCR), is produced by *Flexobacter orangeii* (…). Chloroflexus aurantiacus ) coming, will MCR The gene was split into C-terminal and N-terminal sequences and constructed into the nonsense region of the pCRCT plasmid (containing a 2μ origin of replication and a URA3 selector) using Gibson ligation. The C-terminus is initiated by TDH3p and terminated by CYC1t, and its function is to convert malonyl-CoA to malonyl hemialdehyde. The N-terminus is initiated by PGK1p and terminated by ADH2t, and its function is to convert malonyl hemialdehyde to 3-HP. Mutations were made at three sites at the C-terminus (N940V, K1106W, and S1114R) to increase enzyme activity, thus obtaining a high-yield 3-HP mutant. MCR The specific sequence after the C-terminal mutation is shown in SEQ ID NO.12. MCR The specific N-terminal sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.13. Screening of high-yielding 3-HP Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains: Fermentation experiments were conducted to verify whether the strains improved the yield of 3-HP.

Calcium pantothenate, 1 g / L nicotinic acid, 25 g / L inositol, 1 g / L thiamine hydrochloride, 1 g / L pyridoxine hydrochloride, 0.2 g / L para-aminobenzoic acid.
[0032] The shake-flask fermentation conditions for the production of 3-HP by Saccharomyces cerevisiae were as follows: culture medium volume 25 mL / 250 mL, initial pH 6-7, and initial OD of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant in the fermentation medium was controlled. 600 =0.1, temperature 30℃, speed 200 rpm, time 144 h.
[0033] After fermentation, 1 mL of bacterial culture was transferred to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 5 min to remove bacterial cells. The supernatant was sterilized by membrane filtration and transferred to a liquid chromatography vial. Qualitative and quantitative analysis was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The yield of 3-HP was measured at 210 nm using an HPLC system equipped with RID and UV detectors. 0.5 mM H2SO4 aqueous solution was used as the eluent and an Aminex HPX-87H (300 × 7.8 mm) column (Bio-Rad) was used. The column temperature was 65℃, the flow rate was 0.4 mL / min, and the injection volume was 20 μL. The external standard method was used for quantification of 3-HP.
