[0002] 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), chemically known as 5-hydroxy-3-indolyl-α-alanine, is a precursor for the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter serotonin and can effectively treat a variety of diseases, such as depression, fibromyalgia, obesity, insomnia and chronic headaches. In recent years, with the exploration of the function of 5-HTP, 5-HTP has become one of the most commercially valuable small-variety amino acids.

[0032] Beneficial effects:
[0033] The above 5-hydroxytryptophan producing strain has a clear genetic background. E.coli HTP11 On the basis of can stably provide 5-hydroxytryptophan direct precursor 5-hydroxytryptophan, and E.coli HTP11 In the tryptophan hydroxylation module, the coenzyme supply system is optimized, including the supply of synthetic raw materials and reducing power, the stability of the plasmid system is optimized, and it has efficient 5-hydroxytryptophan output capacity. Specifically:
[0034] First, 5-hydroxytryptophan producing bacteria E.coli HTP11 On this basis, the coenzyme tetrahydropterin supply system was optimized, which increased the carbon flux of the GTP synthesis pathway, the raw material for tetrahydropterin synthesis, made the tryptophan hydroxylase coenzyme expression system efficient, and enhanced the reducing power supply of the tetrahydropterin cycle pathway;
[0035] Then, the tryptophan supply system and plasmid system of the engineered bacteria were coupled and optimized. By coupling the tryptophan supply system and the plasmid system, the supply of precursor tryptophan and the stability of hydroxylated tryptophan of the strain were improved, which was specifically manifested in the knockout of the strain genome. serB Gene, resulting in auxotrophy of serine, a precursor for tryptophan synthesis, serB Gene complementation on plasmid, i.e. serB The gene acts as a non-antibiotic selection tag, and the high copy number of the plasmid enhances the carbon flux of the serine synthesis pathway, ensuring an adequate supply of serine, a precursor of the tryptophan synthesis pathway. During the fermentation process, due to the screening pressure of the non-antibiotic selection tag, there is no need to add antibiotics to ensure the stability of plasmid replication;
[0036] Finally, the export system of 5-hydroxytryptophan was modified. By knocking out the aromatic amino acid internal transport protein and overexpressing the efflux protein, 5-hydroxytryptophan could be quickly exported to the extracellular space, thereby improving the ability of the engineered bacteria to transport 5-hydroxytryptophan to the extracellular space. The 5-hydroxytryptophan engineered strain finally constructed uses glucose as the carbon source, and the fermentation process does not require the addition of 5-hydroxytryptophan precursors or antibiotics, and has good prospects for industrial application.

[0067] Example 3
[0068] Using the strain described in Example 1 E.coli HTP20The specific steps of fermentation production of 5-hydroxytryptophan in a 5L mechanically stirred fermenter are as follows:
[0069] (1) Slant culture: Take the 5-hydroxytryptophan producing strain and inoculate it on the slant medium as the first generation slant culture, and culture it at 36-37℃ for 12 hours; the slant medium should be the universal LB solid medium; take the colony of the first generation slant culture and inoculate it on the new slant medium as the second generation slant culture, and culture it at 36-37℃ for 10 hours;
[0070] (2) Seed culture: The bacterial moss in the second generation slant was washed with sterile water and transferred to the seed culture medium. The culture temperature was 36°C. A 5L bioreactor was used to control the automatic flow addition of 25% ammonia solution to maintain the pH of the seed solution at 7.0±0.2, the dissolved oxygen value at 40-50%, and the OD of the seed solution at 1.5-2.0. 600nm When the pH value reaches 20, the next step of fermentation culture is carried out. The seed culture medium used is: glucose 30 g / L, yeast extract powder 4 g / L, ammonium sulfate 2 g / L, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 3 g / L, anhydrous magnesium sulfate 1 g / L, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate 20 mg / L, manganese sulfate monohydrate 10 mg / L, V H 0.5 mg / L, V B1 0.5 mg / L, the rest is water;
[0071] (3) Fermentation culture: the inoculation amount was 20%, the culture temperature was 36°C, and the pH of the seed solution was maintained at 7.0±0.2 by automatically adding 25% ammonia solution through the bioreactor control, and the dissolved oxygen value was 30%-50%. The fermentation medium used was: glucose 20 g / L, yeast extract 4 g / L, peptone 2 g / L, ammonium sulfate 4 g / L, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 3 g / L, anhydrous magnesium sulfate 2 g / L, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate 60 mg / L, manganese sulfate monohydrate 30 mg / L, V H 0.5 mg / L, V B1 1 mg / L, and the rest is water; when the glucose in the culture medium is consumed, 80% (m / v) glucose solution is added to maintain the glucose concentration in the fermentation medium at 0.1-1g / L; the fermentation period is 32 h.
[0072] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the production of 5-hydroxytryptophan in a 5 L fermenter reached 16.8 g / L after 32 h of fermentation. E. coli HTP20 It is a production strain that synthesizes 5-hydroxytryptophan from scratch using glucose as raw material. It does not require the addition of precursor 5-hydroxytryptophan or antibiotics and has obvious technical advantages.
[0073] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. Improvements and modifications such as strain transformation carried out by technicians in this technical field based on the method of the present invention or on the basis of the method are deemed to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
