The application discloses a
fermentation method for producing
thiamine pyrophosphokinase and belongs to the technical field of bioengineering. The BL21 recombinant
engineering bacteria containing pET28a-TPK, pET28a-ProS2-TPK or pET28a-SUMO-TPK are constructed, the seed liquid is prepared, the
isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactoside is used for inducing expression, the
bacteria are collected, the cells are broken and the supernatant is collected to obtain the TPK crude
enzyme liquid. In the
fermentation, the LB / TB culture medium containing 50 μg / mL
kanamycin or 100 μg / mL
ampicillin is used. The SUMO
label is introduced to guide the correct folding of the TPK, so that the soluble expression ratio of the TPK is more than 85%, the ratio is improved by 2 times compared with the common
system, the inclusion body ratio is greatly reduced, the process is stable and has good
repeatability, and an effective scheme is provided for the industrialized large-scale preparation of the TPK.
