Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology and fermentation engineering technology, in particular to an L-histidine production strain and a construction method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Histidine is one of the 20 standard protein-forming amino acids and is involved in protein synthesis. L-histidine is widely used in various fields, including biomedicine, and has diverse physiological functions, making it a popular choice for food, medicine, and other applications.
[0003] Currently, the main methods for producing L-histidine can be divided into protein hydrolysis, chemical synthesis, and microbial fermentation. Although protein hydrolysis is a mature process, its application and development are significantly limited by severe equipment corrosion, high hydrolysis losses, low yields, and significant environmental pollution. Chemical synthesis involves complex production steps and long production cycles, and the resulting product is often a DL racemate. Microbial fermentation utilizes microorganisms to convert relatively inexpensive industrial raw materials into the target product. Compared to protein hydrolysis and chemical synthesis, microbial fermentation offers milder conditions, less environmental pollution, easier process control, and readily available fermentation raw materials, making it the preferred method for future industrial production of histidine.
[0004] Despite the rapid development of microbial fermentation in recent years, histidine production still faces challenges such as low yield, low sugar-to-acid conversion, high production costs, and long fermentation cycles. Therefore, constructing an L-histidine-producing strain with high acid production efficiency and good genetic stability is a pressing technical challenge. Summary of the Invention

The transformation process mainly includes the following four modules: (1) Chassis bacteria transformation: release L-histidine feedback regulation: knock out hisLG; introduce Corynebacterium glutamicum hisG* gene; (2) Enhanced expression of key enzymes in the pathway: Using the trc promoter, hissDCBHAFI was overexpressed, resulting in efficient expression of key enzymes in the L-histidine metabolic pathway, thereby greatly increasing the production of L-histidine; (3) Enhance the synthesis of the precursor PRPP: Use the trc promoter to overexpress the prsA* and artificial operon rpiAB genes; introduce Corynebacterium glutamicum The zwf* and gnd* genes increase the supply of precursor substances, which is beneficial to the efficient production of the final product; (4) Enhance ATP synthesis: Knock out the ushA, surE, nagD, and nrdD genes to enhance energy supply and facilitate efficient production of the final product.
[0032] The gene editing method used in the above gene manipulation is based on the literature (Li Y, Lin Z, Huang C, et al. Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli Using CRISPR-Cas9 meditated genome editing. Metabolic Engineering, 2015, 31: 13-21. Unless otherwise noted, all technical terms used in this article are explained in that article. "Knockout" as used in this article refers to the inactivation of a target gene, and "introduction" refers to the insertion of a foreign gene into the genome of an engineered bacterium after ligating it to a promoter and terminator.
[0033] Example 1 This example is intended to illustrate the specific construction steps of strain YTH13. In particular, if there is a method for the same type of gene manipulation in the examples, only one of them will be provided and annotated without further elaboration.
[0034] The construction process of the L-histidine production strain comprises the following specific steps: (1) Knockout of hisLG gene: E.coli The W3110 genome was used as a template, and the upstream and downstream homology arms were amplified by PCR using hisLG-US, hisLG-UA and hisLG-DS, hisLG-DA, respectively. Then, the upstream and downstream homology arms were used as templates and hisLG-US and hisLG-DA were used as primers to amplify overlapping fragments by overlapping PCR. Using hisLG-pGRB-S and hisLG-pGRB-A as primers, the gRNA fragment was annealed to obtain the gRNA fragment, which was ligated with the pGRB vector to obtain hisLG-pGRB. E. coli W3110 electroporation competent cells were prepared, the overlapping fragments and hisLG-pGRB were electroporated into the competent cells together, and the positive transformants were screened to obtain the strain YTH1.
[0035] (2) Using the trc promoter at the rph pseudogene locus to control the expression of Corynebacterium glutamicumOverexpression of hisG*: Using the Escherichia coli W3110 genome as a template, rph-US, rph-UA, rph-DS, and rph-DA as primers, the upstream homology arm and downstream homology arm were amplified by PCR, and then using Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 as a template, hisG-1-S, hisG-1-A, hisG-2-S, and hisG-2-A as primers, the hisG-1 and hisG-2 fragments were amplified by PCR, and then the hisG-1 and hisG-2 fragments were used as templates, hisG-1-S and hisG-2-A as primers, and the hisG-2 fragments were amplified by overlapping PCR. this * The target gene fragment was amplified by overlapping PCR using the upstream homology arm, downstream homology arm, and target gene fragment as templates and rph-US and rph-DA as primers to obtain an overlapping fragment. The Ptrc-hisG* (rph) gene integration fragment was obtained by overlapping PCR. The gene integration fragment consisted of the rph upstream homology arm, the Ptrc-hisG* target gene, and the rph downstream homology arm.
