Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of metabolic engineering and genetic engineering technology production, specifically providing a uracil-producing strain, its construction method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Uracil is a base unique to RNA and is one of the basic building blocks for the formation of RNA and vitamin B3 (an important cofactor in the metabolism of terrestrial life). Moreover, in the pharmaceutical field, drugs synthesized from uracil have wide applications. For example, synthesized 5-fluorouracil and its derivatives have shown good clinical efficacy against various cancers. In agriculture, uracil can be used to synthesize certain pyrimidine herbicides, such as cyclohexidine, chlorpyrifos, and terbufos, which achieve weed control by inhibiting photosynthesis.
[0003] Currently, the main method for industrial production of uracil is the chemical method. However, the chemical method suffers from drawbacks such as the use of hazardous reagents, cumbersome operations, and high raw material costs. Microbial fermentation, on the other hand, offers advantages such as low pollution levels, high production efficiency, and low cost. Furthermore, with the rapid development of synthetic biology, more and more researchers are gradually replacing chemical methods by constructing microbial cell factories to ferment and produce many natural products and chemicals. Therefore, constructing a uracil-producing strain with high efficiency and good genetic stability is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed.
