Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a recombinant bacterium for producing D-panthenol by fermentation and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] D-Panthenol is an alcohol derivative of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and is widely used in medicine, cosmetics and food industries.
[0003] At present, the production of D-panthenol mainly relies on chemical synthesis, but this method has problems such as harsh reaction conditions, severe environmental pollution and high cost. In recent years, with the development of synthetic biology, the use of microbial cell factories to synthesize D-panthenol has become a green and sustainable alternative. However, the efficiency of microbial synthesis of D-panthenol in the existing technology is low and it is difficult to meet the needs of industrial production.

[0105] The fermentation results are as follows Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the D-panthenol production of the recombinant strain DP13-pTrc99A-MtpanC-mutV583ADC was 0.22 g / L after 48 hours of high-density fermentation.
[0106] The above results show that the present invention achieves pure biosynthesis of D-panthenol from glucose.
[0107] The present invention has been described in detail above. For those skilled in the art, without departing from the purpose and scope of the present invention, and without the need to carry out unnecessary experimental conditions, the present invention can be implemented in a wide range under equivalent parameters, concentrations and conditions. Although the present invention provides specific embodiments, it should be understood that the present invention can be further improved. In a word, according to the principles of the present invention, the application is intended to include any changes, uses or improvements to the present invention, including departure from the disclosed scope in the application, and changes made with conventional techniques known in the art.
