The invention relates to a
yeast engineering bacterium for synthesizing
polyunsaturated fatty acid conjugated
phospholipid as well as a construction method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of microbial
engineering.The
engineering bacterium takes
yarrowia lipolytica as a
chassis cell, and Mhy1, Iro1, IDH1 and CEX1 genes participating in
hypha generation,
triglyceride synthesis,
citric acid metabolism and
citric acid excretion are knocked out from a
genome of the
yarrowia lipolytica; the construction method comprises the following steps: sequentially connecting CDS1, OPI3, Mce2, LplA, 9Elo, 8Des, 5Des, 17Des, 5Elo, 15Des and LPCAT3 genes of
acyltransferase, so as to form an expression module which is integrated at a URA site of a
genome. The construction method comprises the following steps of: synthesizing phospholipids, synthesizing
pyruvic acid, synthesizing
polyunsaturated fatty acid, and sequentially connecting CDS1, OPI3, Mce2, LplA, 9Elo, 8Des, 5Des, 17Des, 5Elo, 15Des and LPCAT3 genes of
acyltransferase. The
polyunsaturated fatty acid combined
phospholipid is efficiently obtained in one step through the
yeast engineering
bacteria, the
phospholipid yield is 151.19 mg / g, and the EPA content in combined
fatty acid is 13.2%.
