The invention discloses a method for improving yield of branched chain
aldehyde of
lactococcus lactis based on regulation and control of a luxS
gene and application, and belongs to the field of
system biology.
Gene function
verification and
genome scale
metabolic network model analysis are creatively combined, the phenotypic effect of the luxS
gene is confirmed, and more importantly, the internal action mechanism of the luxS
gene is disclosed from the
system level, that is, the whole
metabolic network flow is influenced by regulating and controlling multiple key enzymes such as
transaminase, decarboxylase,
dehydrogenase and decarboxylase. The invention reveals that the
quorum sensing core gene luxS has a new function of regulating and controlling synthesis of branched chain
aldehyde in
lactococcus lactis for the first time, and an intercellular communication
system is directly linked with production of specific
flavor metabolites. The invention provides a brand-new and higher-level regulation target and thought for producing
flavor substances by microbial
fermentation, and gets rid of the limitation that only
metabolic pathway terminal
enzyme is singly modified traditionally.
