30 results about "Fumarase" patented technology

Fumarase (or fumarate hydratase) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reversible hydration/dehydration of fumarate to malate. Fumarase comes in two forms: mitochondrial and cytosolic. The mitochondrial isoenzyme is involved in the Krebs Cycle (also known as the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle [TCA] or the Citric Acid Cycle), and the cytosolic isoenzyme is involved in the metabolism of amino acids and fumarate. Subcellular localization is established by the presence of a signal sequence on the amino terminus in the mitochondrial form, while subcellular localization in the cytosolic form is established by the absence of the signal sequence found in the mitochondrial variety.

Engineered Escherichia coli and method of synthesis of catalyzing fumaric acid from maleic acid in presence of Engineered Escherichia coli

The invention relates to engineered Escherichia coli capable of high-yield production of fumaric acid; specifically, fumarase coded genes fumA and fumC of Escherichia coli are knocked off, and maleic cis-trans isomerase gene from Serratia marcescens is converted to obtain the engineered Escherichia coli. The invention also discloses a method of synthesis of catalyzing fumaric acid from maleic acid by using the engineered Escherichia coli. The method includes culturing the engineered Escherichia coli by fermenting, subjecting the engineered Escherichia coli to high-density inductive expression when OD600 reaches 40-80, and applying the obtained fermentation broth to biochemical catalysis of maleic acid in presence of Engineered Escherichia coli to obtain fumaric acid. The genes fumA and fumC in the Escherichia coli are knocked off by using Red homologous recombination, a metabolic pathway of its fumaric acid to L-malic acid is cut off, the maleic cis-trans isomerase from Serratia marcescens is then expressed, and the obtained genetically-engineered Escherichia coli can efficiently convert maleic matrix to synthesize high-purity fumaric acid, there is nearly no L-malic acid byproduct synthesized, and basis is provided for the industrialized production of fumaric acid by whole-cell process catalysis of maleic acid.

Aspergillus oryzae capable of reducing accumulation of by-product in synthesis process of malic acid and application of aspergillus oryzae

The invention discloses aspergillus oryzae capable of reducing accumulation of a by-product in a synthesis process of aspergillus oryzae and an application of the aspergillus oryzae, and belongs to the field of genetic engineering. According to the invention, on the basis of A.oryzae GAA, over-expression of a fumarase coding gene derived from saccharomyces cerevisiae, a pyruvate carboxylase codinggene derived from rhizopus oryzae, a succinic acid-fumaric acid mitochondria transport protein coding gene derived from saccharomyces cerevisiae is implemented, so that conversion of fumaric acid andpyruvic acid in cytoplasm and mitochondria towards the malic acid and material exchange of cytoplasm and mitochondria are further enhanced. As for the finally obtained recombinant bacterium A.oryzaeCMPFS, a yield of L-malic acid undergoing shake-flask fermentation for 102h reaches 105.3g/L, concentration of succinic acid is 3.8g/L and concentration of fumaric acid is 0.21g/L; therefore, the concentration of the by-product is obviously reduced and product yield is improved; and a foundation is laid for production of the L-malic acid which is higher in purity through further metabolic transformation.
