Problems solved by technology

A strain (CN105296411A) that can produce L-aspartic acid by monosaccharide fermentation under anaerobic conditions was also obtained earlier, but the growth stability of the strain was deviated under anaerobic conditions, and the product concentration was only 10 g / L, so further Construction screening obtained a strain with excellent growth performance and higher concentration under aerobic conditions

Embodiment 1

[0045] This example illustrates the use of homologous recombination to knock out the genes encoding citrate dehydrogenase (icdA), genes encoding malate dehydrogenase (mdh), and genes encoding malic enzyme (sfcA and maeB) in the original Escherichia coli W1485 (ATCC12435) ) and the fumarase-encoding gene (fumAC) that function under aerobic conditions, the knockout process is basically the same. Taking the knockout of the fumAC gene as an example, the specific steps include:

[0046] 1. Using LB medium, cultivate Escherichia coli W1485 under aerobic conditions at 37°C to OD600=0.4-0.6, and make it competent for electroporation.

[0047] 2. Electrotransform the recombinant plasmid into competent Escherichia coli W1485. The electric shock conditions were: 200 Ω, 25 μF, electric shock voltage 2.3 kv, electric shock time 4-5 ms. Immediately after electric shock, the cells were added to pre-cooled 1 mL SOC medium, cultured at 150 r / min, 30°C for 1 h, and then spread on LB medium pla...

Embodiment 2

[0060] This example illustrates that mutant strains with good cell growth performance under aerobic conditions are obtained through evolutionary metabolic selection.

[0061] Evolutionary metabolism is the adaptation process of the bacteria itself to the environment. When a certain microorganism mutates during continuous culture, the mutant strain will compete with the original strain. If the mutant strain has an advantage over the original strain, the mutant strain will be in the reactor get reserved.

[0062] like image 3 As shown, the initial stage of continuous culture starts at 0.015 h -1 The dilution rate is continuously fed with fresh medium containing glucose. The density of the initial strain in the evolutionary metabolism device is 0.6. When the bulk density reaches a steady state and remains unchanged for a period of time, increase the dilution rate to 0.03 h -1 , the concentration of bacteria in the reactor drops rapidly, which indicates that the growth rate of...

Embodiment 3

[0064] This example illustrates the construction of an expression plasmid that overexpresses the gene encoding phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (ppc) and the gene encoding aspartase (aspA), and introduces the recombinant plasmid into the mutant strain CM-AS-105 , to increase the concentration and yield of strain L-aspartic acid.

[0065] 1. Construction of expression plasmids for overexpressing the gene encoding phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (ppc) and the gene encoding aspartase (aspA), the process including:

[0066] (1) Artificially design and synthesize an operon containing two genes with Nco I and Hind III restriction sites at both ends. See SEQ ID NO: 1 for the specific sequence.

[0067] (2) The expression plasmid pTrc99a was digested with Nco I and Hind III respectively, and ligated with the synthetic gene to obtain the recombinant plasmid pTrc99a-ppc-aspA.

[0068] 2. The plasmid pTrc99a-ppc-aspA was introduced into the competent mutant strain CM-AS-105, and the posi...

Abstract

The invention discloses a genetically engineered bacterium for directly producing L-aspartic acid through fermentation. The classification naming of the genetically engineered bacterium is Escherichia coli CM-AS-115, and the preservation number of the genetically engineered bacterium is CCTCC NO: M 2016457. The bacterial strain relates to inactivation of multiple genes, evolution, metabolism and domestication are simultaneously carried out on the bacterial strain which knockouts the multiple genes, and a mutant strain, namely, CM-AS-105, which has a lower respiratory quotient under the aerobic condition and of which the highest dry cell weight is 60-70% of dry weight of an original strain W1485 is obtained; meanwhile, the bacterial strain further relates to over expressions of two genes, wherein the two genes comprise an enol phosphate type pyruvate carboxylase encoding gene (ppc) and an aspartase encoding gene (aspA), and the obtained bacterial strain is CM-AS-115. The genetically engineered bacterium for directly producing L-aspartic acid through fermentation achieves a way of completely adopting renewable biomass resources such as starch and cellulose as raw materials to ferment and prepare the L-aspartic acid, and the way is green and environmentally friendly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biochemical industry, and in particular relates to a genetically engineered bacterium for directly producing L-aspartic acid by fermentation of glucose or xylose. Background technique [0002] L-Aspartic acid is widely used in medicine, food and chemical industry. In medicine, it is the main component of amino acid preparations; in chemical industry, it can be used as a raw material for the manufacture of synthetic resins, and is widely used in the synthesis of polyaspartic acid, an environmentally friendly material; especially in the food industry, L-aspartic acid is a It is a good nutritional supplement and is also the main raw material for the production of sugar substitute aspartame. Has a good market prospect. [0003] At present, L-aspartic acid is mainly synthesized from fumaric acid by biological enzyme method, while fumaric acid is mainly prepared by chemical method. Therefore, from the analysi...
