Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and specifically relates to a genetically engineered bacterium with high yield of D-pantothenic acid based on one-carbon unit supply and a construction method thereof, as well as application of the genetically engineered bacterium with high yield of D-pantothenic acid in preparing D-pantothenic acid by microbial fermentation. Background Art

[0002] Pantothenic acid (PA) is an important member of the vitamin B family, also known as vitamin B5 or pantothenic acid. It is an essential vitamin for maintaining normal energy metabolism. Pantothenic acid was first isolated from yeast in 1933. It is widely present in various foods in nature, especially animal liver, vegetables and whole grains. As a component of coenzyme A (CoA) and acyl carrier protein (ACP), D-pantothenic acid participates in biochemical reactions such as fatty acid synthesis, protein metabolism, and energy metabolism. It has multiple biological functions and is essential for maintaining normal physiological functions. It is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, food industry, feed processing, cosmetics and other industries. Its global market value is expected to continue to grow in the next few years.

[0003] Currently, the chemical enzymatic method is the mainstream production method of D-pantothenic acid, which has the advantages of substrate specificity and mild reaction conditions, but has low productivity, high cost, difficulty in industrialization, and the generation of toxic and harmful substances during the production process, which is contrary to the concept of green development. Compared with traditional chemical production methods, the products produced by microbial cell factories are more environmentally friendly and reduce pollution to the environment, which meets the urgent needs of modern society for green production. In addition, this production method can also achieve carbon neutrality, that is, the carbon emissions during the production process will reach zero or negative values, thereby reducing the negative impact on the carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere, which is conducive to meeting the challenges of climate change and provides a more environmentally friendly and economically efficient method for producing D-pantothenic acid.
