Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of microbial genetic engineering, and in particular to a high-fucose-producing Escherichia coli and a construction method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Fucose (Fucose, FUC) is a widely existing natural sugar, also known as 6-deoxy-galactose. L-fucose is one of the five monosaccharides that constitute breast milk oligosaccharides and one of the eight essential sugars for the human body. It is widely present in animals, plants, and algae, and plays an important physiological function. L-fucose can regulate intestinal flora and intestinal health; it can bind to viruses, bacteria, and toxins to prevent them from infecting cells, thereby enhancing the body's resistance. L-fucose has the function of moisturizing the skin, delaying skin aging, stimulating fibroblast proliferation, and preventing radiation, ultraviolet rays, etc. from damaging fibroblasts. At present, the commercial production of FUC mainly includes methods such as alginate hydrolysis to extract fucoidan and then purify it, chemical methods to convert hexose as raw materials, and enzymatic hydrolysis of extracellular polysaccharides of fucose-producing bacteria. These L-fucose production methods have problems such as low economic benefits, unfriendly to the environment, and limited application scenarios. Therefore, the invention of a new L-fucose production method has potential application value. The biosynthesis method only requires cheap carbon sources and renewable donors within cells as raw materials, and can achieve high economic output at a low environmental cost, so it has broader application prospects.
[0003] The precursors of Fuc synthesis in microorganisms include GDP-L-fucose, 2'-fucosyllactose (2'-FL) synthesized in the cell itself, and exogenously added lactose as a medium. The synthesis process is that first, fructose-6-phosphate synthesizes GDP-L-fucose under the action of genes manA, manB, manC, gmd and wcaG, and extracellular lactose is transported into the cell by β-galactoside permease LacY, and then reacts with GDP-L-fucose to synthesize 2'-FL. 2'-FL is decomposed into fucose and lactose under the action of α-L-fucosidase. However, the current microbial synthesis yield of Fuc is still low and cannot meet the needs of large-scale industrial production. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to overcome the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art and to provide an Escherichia coli that reduces the 2'-FL transport efficiency to increase the FUC level and a construction method and application thereof.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by this application is:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a high-fucose-producing Escherichia coli, in which the expression level or binding efficiency of a 2'-fucosyllactose transporter is reduced and the expression level of a fucose transporter is increased.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the Escherichia coli described in the present application, the Escherichia coli has a knockout or knockdown of a 2'-fucosyllactose transporter and overexpresses a fucose transporter.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the Escherichia coli described in the present application, the transport protein of 2'-fucosyllactose includes SetA and / or MdfA; the transport protein of fucose includes FucP and / or EmrD.
[0009] According to the inventor's previous research, 2'-FL is quickly excreted from the cell after synthesis and cannot be hydrolyzed into fucose by α-L-fucosidase. At the same time, fucose accumulates in the cell in a short period of time after production, which brings survival pressure to the cell, which greatly limits the accumulation of FUC. On this basis, the present application provides a high-fucose-producing Escherichia coli, in which an exogenous FUC transporter FucP with a strong promoter is integrated into the genome of Escherichia coli or replaced with an endogenous transporter EmrD with a strong promoter, and the 2'-FL transporter SetA and / or MdfA are knocked out, which can reduce the residual amount of 2'-FL and increase the yield of FUC, with a very significant effect and high application value.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the Escherichia coli described in the present application, the Escherichia coli is prepared by using Escherichia coli FUC001 as a chassis strain, knocking out or knocking down the 2'-fucosyllactose transporter, and replacing the integrated exogenous fucose transporter or the natural promoter of the endogenous fucose transporter with a strong promoter.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the Escherichia coli described in the present application, the strong promoter is at least one of a T7 promoter, a CaMV promoter, a SV40 promoter and a SFFV promoter.
[0015] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for constructing the above-mentioned Escherichia coli, comprising the following steps:
[0016] S1. knocking out or knocking down the 2'-fucosyllactose transporter in Escherichia coli FUC001 using gene editing technology to obtain Escherichia coli A; the 2'-fucosyllactose transporter includes SetA and / or MdfA;
[0017] S2. Replace the natural promoter of the gene encoding the fucose transporter in the Escherichia coli A obtained in step S1 with a strong promoter to obtain Escherichia coli with high fucose production; the fucose transporter includes FucP and / or EmrD.
[0018] The present application utilizes gene editing technology to knock out the transporter of 2'-FL to reduce the residual amount of 2'-FL, thereby increasing the accumulation of FUC. The present application utilizes gene editing technology to replace the natural promoter of the transporter encoding gene with a strong promoter to increase the expression level of the endogenous transporter, thereby increasing the transport of LNnT to the extracellular space to increase the extracellular concentration of FUC.
[0019] As a preferred embodiment of the construction method described in the present application, when the fucose transporter is FucP, the operation of step S2 is as follows: construct an expression cassette with a strong promoter coding sequence and a FucP protein coding sequence, clone the expression cassette fragment into an expression vector and transform it into the Escherichia coli A obtained in step S1 to obtain Escherichia coli with high fucose production.
[0020] As a preferred embodiment of the construction method described in the present application, the Escherichia coli FUC001 is mainly prepared by the following steps:
[0021] A1, knocking out the β-galactosidase gene lacZ, the fucose isomerase / fucokinase gene cluster fucIk, and the 11-carbonyl glucose phosphotransferase gene wcaJ of Escherichia coli BL21star (DE3) by gene editing technology to obtain Escherichia coli I;
[0022] A2, transferring the plasmid carrying the coding sequences of mannose phosphate mutant enzyme manB, mannose-1-phosphate guanosyltransferase manC, GDP-D-mannose-4,6-dehydratase Gmd and GDP-L-fucose synthase wcaG into the Escherichia coli I obtained in step A1 to obtain Escherichia coli II;
[0023] A3. The plasmid carrying the coding sequences of α-1,2-fucosyltransferase wbgL and α-L-fucosidase AfcA is transferred into the Escherichia coli II obtained in step A2 to obtain Escherichia coli FUC001.
[0024] In a third aspect, the present application provides the use of the above-mentioned Escherichia coli in producing fucose.
[0025] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a method for producing fucose, which is mainly obtained by fed-batch fermentation of the above-mentioned Escherichia coli.
[0026] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0027] The present application provides an Escherichia coli with high fucose production, in which an exogenous FUC transporter FucP with a strong promoter is integrated into the genome of the Escherichia coli or an endogenous transporter EmrD replaced with a strong promoter, and 2'-FL transporters SetA and / or MdfA are knocked out, so that the residual amount of 2'-FL can be reduced from 10-12 g / L to less than 2 g / L, and the yield of FUC can be increased from 50.1 g / L to 66.5 g / L, the effect is very significant, and the application value is high.
