Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of engineering strain transformation, and in particular to a method for constructing an engineering strain with high 5-ALA production, an engineering strain and a method for producing 5-ALA by fermentation. Background Art
[0002] 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), also known as 5-amino-4-ketovaleric acid, is a functional non-protein amino acid that exists naturally in organisms. It is a common precursor for the biosynthesis of all porphyrin compounds (heme, chlorophyll, vitamin B12 and cytochrome). It is widely present in bacteria, fungi, animals and plants, and has an important impact on cell energy metabolism. ALA has the advantages of being biodegradable, non-toxic and residue-free, and is widely used in medicine, pesticides, chemicals and other fields.
[0003] In the agricultural field, 5-ALA promotes plant growth and can increase crop yield and quality; in the medical field, 5-ALA is suitable for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diabetes and cancer; in the cosmetic field, 5-ALA has a moisturizing function and helps to increase skin moisture and elasticity; in the feed field, 5-ALA can accelerate myosin synthesis, improve anemia, and thus enhance the immunity of poultry and livestock. Limited by production technology, cost and other factors, medicine and agriculture are currently the main application scenarios of 5-ALA, and other fields have not yet been effectively developed.
[0004] The production cost of synthesizing 5-ALA by microbial fermentation is high and still cannot meet the needs of the application market. There are two pathways for the biosynthesis of 5-ALA, C4 and C5. The C4 pathway: 5-ALA is generated by the condensation of succinyl CoA and glycine catalyzed by 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS). The C5 pathway: 5-ALA is generated by three steps of glutamate as a substrate through glutamyl tRNA synthetase GluRS, NADPH-dependent glutamyl-tRNA-reductase HemA and glutamate-1-semialdehyde aminotransferase HemL. Among them, the C5 pathway uses tRNA-Glu as a synthetic intermediate and requires ATP and NADPH as cofactors. The limitation of these primary metabolites closely related to energy metabolism and protein synthesis limits the optimization of strain improvement. The substrate glycine and cofactor pyridoxal required for the C4 pathway can be added exogenously during the fermentation process. In the metabolic pathway, the 5-ALA yield can be increased by increasing the supply of succinyl CoA and the catalytic efficiency of ALAS through genetic modification, so the C4 pathway has greater potential.
[0005] Chinese patent application CN112980758A discloses a method for improving the production of 5-aminolevulinic acid synthesized by Corynebacterium glutamicum, by knocking out α-ketoglutarate inhibitor protein and succinate dehydrogenase and overexpressing 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase, recombining the construction of Corynebacterium glutamicum, and synthesizing 25.05g / L of 5-ALA in 48h. Chinese patent CN114369562B discloses a method for improving the expression of 5-aminolevulinic acid, which deletes the glutamate dehydrogenase gene gdhA in Corynebacterium glutamicum, overexpresses the ALA synthase gene hemA and the coding gene pykA of pyridoxal kinase, and the 5-ALA production is increased by 39.5%.

All bacterial liquids were placed in a 50ml centrifuge tube and ice-bathed for 15min, and centrifuged at 4000rpm and 4℃ for 10min. Take about 30ml of pre-cooled 10% glycerol, fully suspend the bacteria, and centrifuge at 4000rpm and 4℃ for 10min. Take pre-cooled 10% glycerol again and repeat the wash twice. Resuspend the cells with 400uL of pre-cooled 10% glycerol, and dispense into 1.5ml centrifuge tubes, 80uL per tube, and store at -70℃ or click transformation.
[0068] 2. Electrotransformation of Corynebacterium glutamicum
[0069] Place freshly prepared (or taken out of the refrigerator) competent cells and ligation products on ice, and flick the tube wall to mix. Pipette 5ul of pre-cooled plasmid on ice and add it to the competent cells, flick the tube wall to mix, and then place on ice for 5-10min. Add to the pre-cooled 0.1cm electroporation cup, 1.8kv, 5ms electroporation. Add recovery medium LBHISml, mix and place in a 46℃ water bath for 6min. Incubate at 30℃, 100rpm for 1h.

Pick the transformants to non-antibiotic liquid culture medium, culture overnight at 30°C, dilute the cultured bacterial solution by an appropriate multiple and spread it on the LB-10% sucrose solid plate, and culture it upside down at 30°C overnight until a single clone grows.
