Efficient ilamycins production utilizing Enteromorpha prolifera by metabolically engineered Streptomyces atratus.

ABSTRACT: With the invasion of green tides and the increase of urban green areas worldwide, multimillion tons of Enteromorpha need to be reutilized. In this study, Enteromorpha prolifera powder is considered a promising biomass resource for the production of commercial chemical products production. Ilamycins, novel cyclic heptapeptides with significant anti-TB activities, are isolated from Streptomyces atratus SCSIO ZH16, a deep-sea-derived strain. Using EP powder as a nitrogen source, the production of ilamycins reached 709.97 mg/L through optimization of the nitrogen source using the engineered strain S. atratus SCSIO ZH16 ΔR. After mutant strain constructions and tests, strain S. atratus SCSIO ZH16 ΔR::bldD EP powder achieved a higher production titer of ilamycins. Furthermore, the production titer of ilamycins and ilamycin E reached 1561.77 mg/L and 745.44 mg/L, respectively, in a 5 L bioreactor. This study suggests that E. prolifera is a promising and eco-friendly nitrogen source for the production of ilamycins.

Project description:BackgroundThe biosynthesis of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) using several microbial systems has garnered considerable interest for their value in pharmaceutics and food industries. 2'-Fucosyllactose (2'-FL), the most abundant oligosaccharide in HMOs, is usually produced using chemical synthesis with a complex and toxic process. Recombinant E. coli strains have been constructed by metabolic engineering strategies to produce 2'-FL, but the low stoichiometric yields (2'-FL/glucose or glycerol) are still far from meeting the requirements of industrial production. The sufficient carbon flux for 2'-FL biosynthesis is a major challenge. As such, it is of great significance for the construction of recombinant strains with a high stoichiometric yield.ResultsIn the present study, we designed a 2'-FL biosynthesis pathway from fructose with a theoretical stoichiometric yield of 0.5 mol 2'-FL/mol fructose. The biosynthesis of 2'-FL involves five key enzymes: phosphomannomutase (ManB), mannose-1-phosphate guanylytransferase (ManC), GDP-D-mannose 4,6-dehydratase (Gmd), and GDP-L-fucose synthase (WcaG), and α-1,2-fucosyltransferase (FucT). Based on starting strain SG104, we constructed a series of metabolically engineered E. coli strains by deleting the key genes pfkA, pfkB and pgi, and replacing the original promoter of lacY. The co-expression systems for ManB, ManC, Gmd, WcaG, and FucT were optimized, and nine FucT enzymes were screened to improve the stoichiometric yields of 2'-FL. Furthermore, the gene gapA was regulated to further enhance 2'-FL production, and the highest stoichiometric yield (0.498 mol 2'-FL/mol fructose) was achieved by using recombinant strain RFL38 (SG104ΔpfkAΔpfkBΔpgi119-lacYΔwcaF::119-gmd-wcaG-manC-manB, 119-AGGAGGAGG-gapA, harboring plasmid P30). In the scaled-up reaction, 41.6 g/L (85.2 mM) 2'-FL was produced by a fed-batch bioconversion, corresponding to a stoichiometric yield of 0.482 mol 2'-FL/mol fructose and 0.986 mol 2'-FL/mol lactose.ConclusionsThe biosynthesis of 2'-FL using recombinant E. coli from fructose was optimized by metabolic engineering strategies. This is the first time to realize the biological production of 2'-FL production from fructose with high stoichiometric yields. This study also provides an important reference to obtain a suitable distribution of carbon flux between 2'-FL synthesis and glycolysis.

Project description:BackgroundGlycyrrhetinic acid (GA) is the most important ingredient in licorice due to its outstanding anti-inflammatory activity and wide application in the medicine and cosmetics industries. Contemporary industrial production of GA by acid hydrolysis of glycyrrhizin which was extracted from Glycyrrhiza plants, is not environment-friendly and devastates farmland since the Glycyrrhiza rhizomes grow up to 10 m underground.ResultsIn this study, GA was produced through metabolically engineering Saccharomyces cerevisiae by introducing the entire heterogeneous biosynthetic pathway of GA. Codon optimized CYP88D6 and CYP72A154, combined with β-AS (β-amyrin synthase encoding gene) and the NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase gene of Arabidopsis thaliana were introduced into S. cerevisiae. The resulting strain (Y1) produced 2.5 mg/L of β-amyrin and 14 μg/L of GA. The cytochrome b5 from G. uralensis (GuCYB5) was identified and the introduction of this novel GuCYB5 increased the efficiency of GA production by eightfold. The joint utilization of the GuCYB5 gene along with 10 known MVA pathway genes from S. cerevisiae were overexpressed in a stable chromosome integration to achieve higher GA production. Using the combined strategy, GA concentration improved by 40-fold during batch fermentation. The production was further improved to 8.78 mg/L in fed-batch fermentation, which was increased by a factor of nearly 630.ConclusionsThis study first investigated the influence of carbon flux in the upstream module and the introduction of a newly identified GuCYB5 on GA production. The newly identified GuCYB5 was highly effective in improving GA production. An integrated strategy including enzyme discovery, pathway optimization, and fusion protein construction was provided in improving GA production, achieving a 630 fold increase in GA production. The metabolically engineered yeast cell factories provide an alternative approach to glycyrrhetinic acid production, replacing the traditional method of plant extraction.
