Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bio-fermentation technology, and in particular to a fermentation method for type XVII recombinant collagen and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Pichia pastoris ( Pichia pastoris Pichia pastoris is a widely used eukaryotic expression system for recombinant protein production. Its fermentation process is significantly influenced by culture medium composition, culture conditions, and metabolic regulation. Amino acids, as key substrates for cell growth and protein synthesis, play a crucial role in the fermentation performance of Pichia pastoris (such as cell growth, protein expression, metabolic flux distribution, and byproduct accumulation). Amino acids are not only monomers for protein synthesis but also participate in energy metabolism, signal transduction, and stress response. Therefore, studying the effects of amino acids on Pichia pastoris fermentation is of great significance for improving the yield and quality of recombinant proteins.

[0003] The effects of amino acids on the growth of Pichia pastoris: 1. Promoting Cell Proliferation: In basal media (such as BSM), certain amino acids (e.g., lysine, histidine, leucine) may be limiting factors in Pichia pastoris. Exogenous supplementation of these amino acids can significantly increase biomass and shorten the lag phase. For example, glutamine (Gln) serves as the main nitrogen source, supporting the TCA cycle and nucleotide synthesis. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs, such as leucine, isoleucine, valine) affect energy metabolism and cell membrane synthesis.

[0004] 2. Nitrogen source utilization efficiency: Compared to inorganic nitrogen (such as (NH4)2SO4), amino acids are more easily absorbed as organic nitrogen sources, reducing energy consumption and improving carbon utilization efficiency. Amino acids can reduce the accumulation of byproducts. When carbon sources are limited, Pichia pastoris may shift to fermentation metabolism, accumulating ethanol or acetic acid and inhibiting growth. Supplementing with amino acids can maintain oxidative phosphorylation and reduce harmful metabolites.

[0005] Serine (Ser) and glycine (Gly) are involved in one-carbon metabolism, affecting NADPH supply, and thus affecting the balance of reducing power. At the same time, amino acids are direct precursors of collagen synthesis, especially glycine, proline. Glycine is the most abundant amino acid in collagen, accounting for about one-third of the total molecular weight. The shortage of glycine will directly lead to the interruption of peptide chain synthesis, and it is the most primary limiting amino acid. Proline is the second most abundant amino acid in collagen, and a deficiency of proline will significantly reduce the synthesis rate and yield of collagen. Lysine is involved in collagen structure and is also a substrate for post-translational modification, affecting the structural stability and function of collagen. Methionine and cysteine improve the tolerance and utilization efficiency of the cell to methanol, significantly increase the yield and quality (correct folding rate) of the exogenous protein, and reduce the accumulation of toxic by-products (such as formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide). In summary, amino acids affect the fermentation performance of Pichia pastoris through various mechanisms, and reasonable regulation of their supply can significantly improve cell growth and protein yield.

(PTM1 solution refers to the manual of Pichia pastoris of Invitrogen Company, and the specific formula includes: sodium iodide 0.08 g / L, copper sulfate pentahydrate 6.0 g / L, manganese sulfate monohydrate 3.0 g / L, sodium molybdate 0.2 g / L, boric acid 0.02 g / L, cobalt chloride 0.5 g / L, zinc sulfate 20.0 g / L, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate 65.0 g / L, biotin 0.2 g / L, sulfuric acid 5.0 mL / L, and 0.22 um filter membrane is used for sterilization.) Yeast extract 1-4 g / L, yeast extract 1-4 g / L, 85% phosphoric acid 8-12 mL / L, calcium sulfate 0.23-0.69 g / L, potassium sulfate 6.37-11.83 g / L, magnesium sulfate heptahydrate 5.25-9.75 g / L, potassium hydroxide 1-4 g / L, glycerol 40 g / L, antifoam 0.35-0.65 g / L, PTM1 3.0-5.65 mL / L, biotin 3-8 mg / L.

[0044] The fermentation process of type XVII recombinant collagen includes the following steps: Pichia pastoris Pichia pastoris JY-17 3 3According to the inoculation amount of 5%, inoculate in a 5L fermenter with a medium volume of 2L. In the basic culture stage, the culture temperature is 30°C, the pH is adjusted to 5.2 with ammonia water, the dissolved oxygen is not less than 25%, the tank pressure is maintained at 0.03MPa, and the initial stirring speed is 250rpm. After 15-18h of culture, the glycerol in the basic medium is consumed, the dissolved oxygen quickly rises to 50-75%, 50% glycerol is added to make the wet weight of the bacterial body reach 200-230g / L, and glycerol addition is stopped until it is consumed. After stopping the addition of glycerol, starve for 30min, and then enter the methanol addition stage for expressing recombinant protein, the tank pressure is 0.03MPa, the pH is adjusted to 5.8, the dissolved oxygen is controlled at 10-25%, and L-hydroxyproline is added at the same time, the addition speed is 0.5mM / L / h, and the fermentation is stopped after 84h of methanol induction. The fermentation is stopped after 84h of methanol induction. In the methanol induction stage, the fermentation broth is collected every 6h, centrifuged at 15000rpm, the supernatant is collected, and the content of recombinant collagen is detected by SDS-PAGE.

[0045] The fermentation results are shown in Table 1: Table 1 Fermentation results Comparing example 1-6 and comparative example 1, methanol induction stage, while adding different kinds of amino acids and different proportions of amino acids, the fermentation level of type XV recombinant collagen is obviously improved, wherein the fermentation level of type XV recombinant collagen of example 6 is higher than that of comparative example 1 by about 69.8% in 84h of methanol induction, and the fermentation time can be shortened by 12-24h accordingly. Comparing example 1-6 and comparative example 2, it can be seen that during the methanol induction stage, the addition of L-hydroxyproline does not obviously improve the yield of recombinant collagen. It is considered that Pichia pastoris lacks a metabolic pathway for efficiently degrading and utilizing L-hydroxyproline as a carbon source, and L-hydroxyproline cannot be rapidly consumed. L-hydroxyproline is highly similar in structure to L-proline, and it can competitively inhibit the absorption and transport system of Pichia pastoris cells to proline, and does not obviously improve the expression of collagen.
