Overexpression of thermostable meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase to redirect diaminopimelate pathway for increasing L-lysine production in Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT: Dehydrogenase pathway, one of diaminopimelate pathway, is important to the biosynthesis of L-lysine and peptidoglycan via one single reaction catalyzed by meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase (DapDH). In this study, the thermostable DapDH was introduced into diaminopimelate pathway that increased the final titer (from 71.8 to 119.5 g/L), carbon yield (from 35.3% to 49.1%) and productivity (from 1.80 to 2.99 g/(L∙h)) of L-lysine by LATR12-2∆rpiB::ddh_St in fed-batch fermentation. To do this, the kinetic properties and the effects of different DapDHs on L-lysine production were investigated, and the results indicated that overexpression of StDapDH in LATR12-2 was beneficial to construct an L-lysine producer with good productive performance because it exhibited the best of kinetic cha
