Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of microbial fermentation engineering, and particularly relates to a method for synergistically improving the fermentation yield of daptomycin based on metabolic flow regulation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Daptomycin is a novel lipopeptide antibiotic fermented by microorganism Streptomyces roseosporus. It is composed of a decanoyl side chain attached to the N-terminal tryptophan of a cyclic 13-amino acid peptide. The pure product of daptomycin is a light yellow crystalline powder, which is easily soluble in water and small-molecule organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, butanol, etc. In alkaline solution and acidic solution with pH>3.5, daptomycin can be dissolved in large quantities; it is slightly soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and chloroform. Daptomycin interferes with the phospholipid structure of the cell membrane, hinders the synthesis of the main component of the bacterial cell wall, peptidoglycan, leading to cell rupture and bacterial death. Due to its novel mechanism of action, daptomycin has the characteristics of high bactericidal efficiency, low drug resistance, small dosage, and small side effects, etc., and stands out among numerous antibiotic drugs, becoming the best substitute for vancomycin. Daptomycin injection is used for the treatment of complex skin and soft tissue infections caused by gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus, as well as bacteremia and right-sided endocarditis caused by Staphylococcus aureus.
[0003] The amino acid nucleus of daptomycin is synthesized by non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPSs), and there are mostly fatty acyl coenzyme A ligases and acyl carrier proteins (ACPs) near the synthesis gene cluster, which participate in the activation of fatty acids. In the initial stage of the synthesis of cyclic lipopeptide antibiotics, fatty acyl coenzyme A ligase first catalyzes the reaction of fatty acid with ATP or acetyl coenzyme A to generate fatty acyl AMP or fatty acyl coenzyme A, and then continues to catalyze the combination of fatty acyl AMP or fatty acyl coenzyme A with acyl carrier protein (ACP). After the activation of the fatty acyl group, it is condensed with the amino group of the amino acid (tryptophan, aspartic acid or asparagine) under the action of NRPS, and the extension of the initial peptide chain.
[0004] The fermentation content of daptomycin is limited by the following factors: traditional carbon source (glucose) triggers catabolite repression, which inhibits the extension of the peptide chain; excessive addition of decanoic acid precursor leads to cell toxicity; competition between primary metabolism and secondary metabolism for resources causes unbalanced distribution of product metabolic flow; the problems of carbon source inhibition, precursor toxicity and metabolic flow competition cannot be solved by the medium formula and the feeding strategy, which limits the content improvement.
[0005] At present, the conventional method for producing daptomycin in the industry is mainly through fermentation of Streptomyces roseosporus strain. In the synthesis of daptomycin by fermentation method, first, the mother nucleus compound A21978C of daptomycin is generated by Streptomyces roseosporus, then the precursor capric acid is added to the fermentation broth to provide a side chain, and the final product is synthesized by biological acylation. The precursor compounds of capric acid include capric acid, capric acid salt, capric acid ester, capric aldehyde, etc. The addition mode of the precursor is the step that restricts the biosynthesis of daptomycin. The patent for invention with publication number CN111892647A discloses a feeding method for improving the fermentation yield of daptomycin, that is, at the time when the mycelial morphology begins to differentiate and enters the metabolic phase, a capric acid-oleic acid methyl ester solution with a volume ratio of 1:1 is added to the fermentation broth at a constant rate gradient. The patent for invention with publication number CN117210520A discloses a method for improving the fermentation level of daptomycin, using capric acid triglyceride as the precursor substance for daptomycin fermentation, adding phosphate to maintain the pH during the fermentation process, and at the same time, increasing the proportion of nitrogen source in the fermentation medium. The patent for invention with publication number CN109593808A discloses a daptomycin fermentation medium and a preparation method thereof. By improving the carbon and nitrogen sources in the fermentation medium, the production cost is reduced, and the yield of daptomycin is improved.
[0006] In the above-mentioned disclosed methods, the focus is mainly on the substance and addition mode of the precursor, and the types of precursors are basically capric acid. Since capric acid is toxic to the bacteria when in excess, there is no related report on the proportion of the main component. SUMMARY

[0096] II. Experimental Results
[0097]
[0098] As can be seen from the above data, compared with the method for synergistically improving daptomycin fermentation yield based on metabolic flux regulation described in Examples 1-4, the daptomycin content is around 4300 mg / mL, which is far less than the data in Examples 1-3 of this invention (around 5100 mg / mL). The advantages of this invention are that by optimizing the carbon and nitrogen source combination, a combination of glucose-sugarcane molasses-maltodextrin complex carbon source and soybean hydrolysate and amino acid powder complex nitrogen source is designed. Glucose provides rapid energy to promote cell growth, while sugarcane molasses and maltodextrin slowly decompose to continuously provide carbon skeletons (avoiding glucose repression). Amino acid powder provides readily available amino acids, and sulfur-containing amino acids from soybean hydrolysate promote coenzyme A synthesis. During fermentation, decanoic acid precursor is added in stages and coupled with carbon source starvation induction. Acetyl coenzyme A is added simultaneously to relieve metabolic bottlenecks. Corn steep liquor and amino acid powder are added during the secondary metabolic stage of fermentation. Combined with feeding to control the direction of synthesis, metabolic flux and precursor utilization are improved, thereby increasing the main component and reducing impurities. Adding acetyl-CoA increases primary metabolic flux and removes metabolic bottlenecks; secondary metabolism promoters (corn steep liquor and amino acid powder) remove key node limitations and improve precursor utilization; starting at 48h, calcium chloride is added at 3-5 ml / L / h, which significantly improves cyclic peptide polymerase activity and precursor utilization efficiency, while enhancing cell membrane permeability.
