Abstract

The invention discloses a method for increasing the carbon source utilization rate in the aspergillus oryzae L-malic acid synthesizing process and belongs to the field of genetic engineering. According to the method, Aspergillus oryzae NRRL 3488 serves as an original strain, metabolic flux for synthesizing malic acid from oxaloacetic acid is enhanced by expressing pyruvic carboxylase and malic dehydrogenase in aspergillus oryzae cytoplasm, and the shake flask yield of L-malic acid is increased to 50.5+ / -1.06 g / L and is increased by 38.4%; then, the synthesizing efficiency of oxaloacetic acid from phosphoenolpyruvic acid in aspergillus oryzae cytoplasm is improved by expressing pyruvic carboxylase and pyruvate carboxykinase of Escherichia coli in the converter Aspergillus oryzae p16, finally, the yield of L-malic acid reaches 63.2+ / -1.32 g / L, the concentration of succinic acid is 8.88+ / -0.45 g / L, the production intensity is also improved to 0.7 g / (L.h) from original 0.24 g / (L.h) of Aspergillus oryzae NRRL 3488, and a foundation is laid for further metabolic engineering reform of Aspergillus oryzae for producing L-malic acid.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for improving the utilization of carbon sources in the synthesis process of Aspergillus oryzae L-malic acid, and belongs to the field of genetic engineering. Background technique [0002] As an important four-carbon dicarboxylic acid, malic acid is mainly used as a sour agent in foods and beverages, as a cleaning agent for metals, as well as in agriculture, cosmetics and medicine. In 2004, the U.S. Department of Energy identified malic acid, fumaric acid, and succinic acid as one of the 12 platform compounds that can be produced on a large scale through the fermentation of renewable raw materials by microorganisms. [0003] As a "generally regarded as safe" (GRAS) safe strain, Aspergillus oryzae has been used in food, feed, acid production, winemaking and other fermentation industries more than 1,000 years ago, and is an ideal eukaryotic expression vector. Aspergillus flavus is the original malic acid producing strain, but i...
