Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and more particularly to a method for improving the growth density and enzyme production of Escherichia coli strains producing glucose-6-phosphate isomerase. Background Art
[0002] Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI) is an enzyme with great industrial application value. Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase participates in sugar metabolism and catalyzes the isomerization of D-glucose-6-phosphate into D-fructose-6-phosphate. Industrially, it is widely used in the production of fructose, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), and bioethanol. The production method of fructose usually involves liquefying starch and then converting it into glucose by glucoamylase, and obtaining fructose through isomerization by GPI. The fructose is obtained by separating and crystallizing the fructose syrup; or sucrose can be hydrolyzed to produce fructose syrup, and the fructose is obtained by separating and crystallizing the fructose syrup.
[0003] The application of fructose instead of sucrose in food has great advantages. The metabolism of fructose does not depend on insulin and is easily absorbed and utilized by the human body. It is more suitable for the supply of energy and body fluids for diabetic and liver disease patients; fructose has health care functions such as promoting the absorption of trace elements, protecting liver cells, assisting in the treatment of alcoholism, preventing dental caries, and enhancing endurance; crystalline fructose has been widely used in the food, pharmaceutical and other industries due to its high purity and stable properties.
[0004] Corn steep liquor is a liquid obtained by clarifying the corn steep water extracted from corn after wet milling and hot sulfurous acid impregnation, and then sending it to triple-effect evaporation for concentration. Its main components include water, starch, protein, fat, ash, total nitrogen, and total sugar, etc. It is inexpensive and rich in nutrients. Using corn steep liquor as the main fermentation raw material is beneficial to reducing costs. The total sugar content in corn steep liquor is between 0.74% and 4.39%, and the main component is glucose. It contains a certain amount of protein and is rich in various amino acids, such as arginine, glutamic acid, histidine, phenylalanine, alanine, and β-phenethylamine, etc., which are beneficial to the growth requirements of bacteria. The total nitrogen content is between 3.33% and 3.67%, providing a nitrogen source for the growth of bacteria and contributing to the growth and reproduction of microorganisms. In addition, corn steep liquor also contains various vitamins and minerals, such as elements like potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, and iron, which are helpful for bacteria to produce enzymes.
[0005] The glucose-6-phosphate isomerase gene is ubiquitous in prokaryotes, and the glucose-6-phosphate isomerase gene has been found in many microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Streptomyces, and Lactobacillus. In order to improve the expression of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, methods such as optimizing the culture medium and gene recombination are mainly used. At present, there are problems such as low conversion rate in the direct production of high fructose syrup (containing 55% fructose) by biocatalytic conversion method; the existing glucose-6-phosphate isomerase has low enzyme activity, and the highest conversion rate can only reach about 40%, which increases the production and application costs; it is urgent to develop a glucose-6-phosphate isomerase with low cost and good stability.
[0006] Therefore, it is an urgent problem for those skilled in the art to provide a method for improving the growth density and enzyme production of Escherichia coli strains producing glucose-6-phosphate isomerase. Summary of the Invention
