The invention discloses a recombinant bacterium for producing
mevalonic acid by taking glucose and
acetone as co-substrates as well as a construction method and application of the recombinant bacterium, and belongs to the technical field of
genetic engineering. The problems that an existing
mevalonic acid biosynthesis mode is low in
carbon atom economy, limited in theoretical yield and the like are solved. According to the invention,
acetone carboxylase, acetoacetyl
coenzyme A synthetase, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl
coenzyme A reductase and
hydroxymethyl glutaryl-CoA synthetase are subjected to
heterologous expression in
escherichia coli with an
acetyl coenzyme A
acetyltransferase gene atoB and a
histidine protein kinase gene atoS knocked out, and self
carbonic anhydrase is over-expressed; and a new way for synthesizing MVA by using glucose and
acetone as a co-substrate is constructed. According to the method, one molecule of CO2 can be fixed in the
biosynthesis of
mevalonic acid, the yield of carbon atoms in the synthesis process of mevalonic acid is increased, the problem of low yield of carbon atoms in the synthesis process of mevalonic acid by taking glucose as a single substrate is solved, and a new thought is provided for constructing a carbon
neutralization type biological
manufacturing technology.
