一种酿酒酵母突变体及其在制备酒精中的应用

By mutating serine at position 485 of the Hsp82 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to alanine, thus preventing its phosphorylation, the negative impact of gene knockout and ATPase overexpression on yeast growth rate in existing technologies was resolved, resulting in a high-efficiency increase in ethanol production.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for increasing ethanol production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae suffer from problems such as the cumbersome gene knockout process, which affects the growth rate of the strain. Furthermore, overexpression of ATPase accelerates intracellular ATP consumption, reducing the ethanol production rate per unit volume.

Method used

By mutating serine position 485 of the Hsp82 protein in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome to alanine, phosphorylation is prevented, thus forming a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant. This avoids the use of ethanol as a carbon source, reduces the oxidative phosphorylation process, and increases ethanol production.

Benefits of technology

It significantly increases ethanol yield without affecting strain growth and remains stable under both nutrient-sufficient and insufficient conditions, making it suitable for industrial alcohol production.

Abstract

本发明公开一种酿酒酵母突变体及其在制备酒精中的应用。本发明提供了Hsp82蛋白突变体为将Hsp82蛋白对应于序列2所示的氨基酸序列第485位残基进行突变,得到具有相同活性的蛋白。本发明提供的Hsp82蛋白S485A酿酒酵母突变菌株,不能利用乙醇作为碳源,可以减少在培养基营养不足时酵母细胞利用乙醇进行氧化磷酸化供能的生物学过程以提高乙醇产量。
