Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of biotechnology and fermentation engineering technology, and in particular to a rhodioloside-producing strain, its construction method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Rhodioloside ( salidroside Rhodiola rosea glycosides are natural phenylethanoid compounds with significant antioxidant, anti-fatigue, neuroprotective, and anti-hypoxia activities, and are widely used in the pharmaceutical, health, and cosmetic fields. In recent years, the efficient biosynthesis of rhodiola rosea glycosides by constructing microbial cell factories using synthetic biology strategies has become a research hotspot. Among them, *Escherichia coli* (E. coli) Escherichia coli Due to its clear genetic background, rapid growth, and ease of engineering modification, it is widely used as a chassis host for heterologous synthesis of rhodioloside.
[0003] However, current E. coli-based rhodioloside synthesis pathways generally rely on aromatic amino acid metabolism, typically requiring the derivation of erythrose-4-phosphate (E4P) and phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) from central carbon metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway and glycolysis. These then proceed through multiple enzymatic reactions to generate the key precursor 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate (4-HPP), which is subsequently decarboxylated by phenylpyruvate decarboxylase. ARO10, alcohol dehydrogenase ADH6 and Glycosyltransferase Oft8gt1 The catalytic production of the target product rhodioloside is a lengthy process (typically involving 6–9 or more exogenous or endogenous enzymes) with complex metabolic flux regulation.
[0004] More importantly, L-tyrosine, as a byproduct, accumulates readily intracellularly. On the one hand, key enzymes... tyrA The gene is subject to tyrosine feedback repression, limiting the supply of the precursor 4-HPP; on the other hand, through the... tyrA Site-directed mutagenesis of amino acids relieves tyrosine inhibition, but phenylpyruvate decarboxylase... ARO10The heterologous introduction of rhodioloside leads to restricted expression. 4-HPP readily converts to tyrosine under the action of endogenous transaminases, causing not only carbon loss and energy waste but also a metabolic burden on the bacteria, affecting strain activity. Simultaneously, a large amount of carbon is "locked" in intermediate metabolites such as tyrosine, unable to effectively flow to the final product, resulting in significant carbon loss and energy waste, severely restricting the yield and productivity of rhodioloside. Furthermore, the synthesis of aromatic compounds and the key precursor tyrosol, tyrosol, requires a large amount of NADPH. The host's endogenous NADPH regeneration capacity is limited, and blindly strengthening related metabolic pathways can lead to growth and metabolic disorders. Therefore, effectively addressing the balance between NADPH supply and metabolism while ensuring normal cellular physiology is crucial for achieving efficient microbial synthesis of rhodioloside. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop a novel metabolic engineering strategy that can shorten the synthetic pathway, reduce intermediate product accumulation, and increase NADPH supply to achieve efficient, stable, and high-yield synthesis of rhodioloside in *E. coli*.

[0017] Preferably, the above application follows these steps: (1) Slant culture: The rhodioloside-producing strain was inoculated onto a slant culture medium and cultured at 36-37℃ for 12-16h; (2) Shake flask seed culture: Take solid slant inoculum and inoculate it into shake flask culture medium for fermentation. The culture temperature is 36-37℃, the culture time is 12-20h, the shaking speed is 200-240r / min, and the pH is 6.4-6.7.

[0021] All of the above-mentioned culture media can be prepared using standard methods.
[0022] Beneficial effects: The aforementioned rhodioloside-producing strain introduces a dual synthetic pathway for rhodioloside. By optimizing the reducing power supply system, it effectively improves the synthesis efficiency of rhodioloside, exhibiting excellent synthetic capacity and stable performance. It utilizes inexpensive carbon sources for de novo synthesis, without nutritional deficiencies, plasmids, or byproducts. Its construction method involves reconstructing the metabolic network from *E. coli* to rhodioloside through metabolic and genetic engineering, enabling efficient de novo synthesis of rhodioloside from glucose, thus improving the production level of rhodioloside and laying a solid foundation for its industrial-scale production. Specifically: (1) In the starting strain E.coli Knockout in the W3110 genome feaB Genes and ushA The gene blocked the degradation pathway of rhodioloside, which reduced carbon loss and promoted the accumulation of rhodioloside while maintaining normal bacterial growth.
[0023] (2) By knocking out tyrR Genes that enhance the expression activity of key enzymes; by knocking out pykF , expressed tktA The gene is enriched with precursors for the synthesis of aromatic products; by knocking out ldhA Genes that prevent pyruvate from flowing to lactate ensure normal bacterial growth and metabolism; overexpression of aroG fbr Genes that significantly increase the metabolic flux of the shikimic acid pathway; overexpression tyrA fbr The gene eliminates the feedback inhibition caused by tyrosine, allowing more metabolic flux to be directed to the rhodioloside precursor 4-HPP. Due to the difficulty in rhodioloside synthesis, this application innovatively constructs a dual synthetic pathway for rhodioloside to enhance its accumulation. Specifically, although tyrosine competes for 4-HPP, to avoid the nutritional deficiency of bacterial tyrosine caused by knockout, a heterologous gene from *Lactobacillus brevis* is introduced. TDC Genes and Micrococcus luteus origin TYO The gene was modified and its expression was optimized through promoter engineering to redirect the carbon flow to tyrosine to 4-HPAAL, thus constructing a pathway for the synthesis of rhodioloside from tyrosine; heterologous introduction of yeast-derived rhodioloside... ARO10 and ADH6 Genes, the origin of osmanthus Oft8gt1 Genes were used to construct a pathway for the synthesis of rhodioloside from 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid. This dual-synthetic pathway directs all metabolic flux into the rhodioloside synthesis pathway, avoiding carbon loss and eliminating nutrient deficiencies in the bacterium, thus effectively improving the synthesis efficiency of rhodioloside.
[0024] (3) The cofactor supply system of the engineered bacteria was optimized by overexpressing gluconate kinase. gntK Genes, heterologous introduction of Bacillus-derived genes GDHGenes that increase NAD(P)H supply, thus supporting NAD(P)H-dependent genes. ADH6 Gene expression provided sufficient cofactors. The resulting rhodioloside engineered strain SRL15 used glucose as a carbon source, and the fermentation process required no addition of rhodioloside precursors or antibiotics, demonstrating promising prospects for industrial application.

[0054] Example 2 This embodiment aims to illustrate the application of the strain constructed in Example 1 in shake-flask fermentation. The specific steps are as follows: ① Slant culture: Take the bacterial strain preserved in the -80℃ refrigerator and inoculate it on the slant culture medium. Incubate at 36-37℃ for 14 h. The slant culture medium is the general LB solid medium (5g / L yeast extract, 10g / L peptone, 10g / L sodium chloride, 15g / L agar powder, and the rest is water).
[0055] ② Shake-flask seed culture: Inoculate solid slant culture into shake-flask culture medium for fermentation. The culture temperature is 36-37℃, the culture time is 16 hours, the shaking speed is 220 r / min, and the pH is 6.4-6.7. The seed culture medium used is: glucose 25 g / L, glycerol 25 g / L, yeast extract 4 g / L, peptone 1.3 g / L, anhydrous magnesium sulfate 1.5 g / L, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 2.5 g / L, ammonium sulfate 1.5 g / L, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate 30 mg / L, manganese sulfate monohydrate 15 mg / L, and the remainder is water.
[0056] ③ Shake-flask fermentation culture: The inoculum size is 5%, the culture temperature is 34℃, the pH is 6.7, the culture time is 30h, and the shaker speed is adjusted in stages, 0-20h: when OD 600 When the concentration reaches 0.5, add 0.1 mmol / L of IPTG inducer and rotate at 220 rpm. After 20-30 hours, rotate at 180 rpm. The fermentation medium used is: yeast extract 4.5 g / L, peptone 2.5 g / L, corn steep liquor 3 g / L, anhydrous magnesium sulfate 1.8 g / L, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 2.5 g / L, ammonium sulfate 1.5 g / L, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate 35 mg / L, manganese sulfate monohydrate 15 mg / L, VB1, VB3, and VB5 2.5 mg / L each, with the remainder being water.
[0057] Wild-type E. coli W3110 served as the control group. After 36 hours of fermentation, wild-type E was confirmed. coliW3110 failed to accumulate rhodioloside. The results of rhodioloside yield by the strain constructed in Example 1 during shake-flask fermentation are shown in Table 2. Among them, the engineered strain SRL15 accumulated 1.26 g / L of rhodioloside.
[0058] Table 2. Effects of key metabolic modification sites on rhodioloside yield during shake-flask fermentation
[0059] This invention utilizes systematic metabolic engineering to construct an engineered strain that produces rhodioloside. To verify the role of each key gene modification in this strategy, as shown in Table 2, the modified strain was constructed using a basic rhodioloside synthesis module (…). aro10 / adH6 and Oft8gt1 Based on the rhodioloside-producing strains, blocking the competitive pathway ( ΔpykF / ΔldhA / ΔfeaB / ΔushA, pgm and galU ), and release feedback inhibition ( aroG fbr / tyrA fbr ), constructing plasmids and introducing TDC / TYO pathways and enhance NADPH supply ( GDH / gntK The yield of rhodioloside in shake flasks was increased from 0.16 g / L to 1.26 g / L, which is about 7.9 times higher than that of the baseline glycoside-producing strain. The yield results indicate that the above metabolic engineering modification can synergistically promote precursor supply, reducing power supply and glycosylation efficiency, thereby increasing the yield of rhodioloside.

It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. Improvements and modifications such as strain modification based on the method of the present invention or based on the method are all considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
