Problems solved by technology

Considering the long synthetic pathway and complex regulation, the reported fermentation yield of L-tryptophan is still far lower than that of non-aromatic amino acids: the sugar-acid conversion rate of L-tryptophan in the fermenter is estimated to be 20-23% , L-phenylalanine is about 25%; while other amino acids can achieve relatively high yields: the sugar-acid conversion rate of L-lysine (hydrochloride) is 40-50%, L-glutamic acid 45-55%, L-arginine is 30-40%, L-threonine is 40-50%, L-valine is 30-40%, L-alanine is 45-55% ( Ikeda M, 2006)

Embodiment 1

[0153] The construction of embodiment 1 bacterial strain

[0154] The names and genotype characteristics of the strains constructed in the embodiments of the present invention are shown in Table 4.

[0157]According to the method described in patent application WO198701130A1 and Mascarenhas et al. (Mascarenhas D, Ashworth DJ, Chen CS, Deletion of pgi alters tryptophan biosynthesis in genetically engineered strain of Escherichia coli., Appl Environ Microbiol, 1991, 57(10): 2995-2999) The strain TS102 was constructed, that is, the genes tnaA, serA and trpR on the genome of the W3110 wild-type strain were knocked out. The initial strain used was Escherichia coli wild-type W3110 (US5,939,295A). The plasmid used is p5LRPS2, which is described in US5,939,295A, is derived from pBR322, and contains serA, aroG fbr and TrpE fbr DCBA gene fragment.

[0203] Example 2 Determination of Efficiency of Fermentative Production of L-Tryptophan by TS102, TS52, TS41 and TS49 Strains

[0204] Pick each strain from the solid plate, place it in a test tube containing 4mL LB liquid medium, and culture it at 35°C and 220rpm for 8-14h; transfer the strain to a medium containing 20mL seed medium according to the inoculum size of 1:500 to 1:1000 In a baffled Erlenmeyer flask, culture at 35°C, 220rpm for 10-12h; transfer the strain to a fermentation shaker flask containing 500mL of shaker flask fermentation medium, so that the initial OD600 is 0.6-0.8, at 35°C, 220rpm Cultivate for 12h.

[0205] The content of L-tryptophan in the culture medium was determined by Eclipse XDB-C18 reversed-phase chromatographic column. Mobile phase A component: 20mM sodium acetate + 0.2v / v% triethylamine, 85%; B component: methanol, 15v / v%; flow rate 0.6mL / min; detector: UV detector 280nm absorption peak. The yield of L-tryptophan is measured by the concentr...

Embodiment 3

[0210] Example 3 Determination of TS102, TS401 and TS412 Strain Fermentative Production L-Tryptophan Efficiency

[0211] According to the same method as in Example 2, using TS102 as a control strain, the efficiency of fermentative production of L-tryptophan by TS401 and TS412 strains was determined. The result is shown in Figure 3. Compared with TS102, the yield of TS401 strain increased by 6%, and the yield of TS412 strain increased by 23% relative to TS102. The control strain TS102 detected 1.74g / L tryptophan, and the conversion rate was 8.44%.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a strain producing L-tryptophan and use thereof in fermentation. Specifically, the L-tryptophan producing capability of the strain is greatly improved through attenuating or blocking an oxidation stage of a pentose phosphate pathway of engineering bacteria (such as Escherichia coli or Corynebacterium glutamicum) with a genetic engineering method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microbial engineering. More specifically, the invention improves the L-tryptophan biosynthesis pathway of engineering bacteria to increase the L-tryptophan production of the bacterial strain. Background technique [0002] The chemical name for tryptophan is beta-indolylalanine. As one of the essential amino acids for humans and animals, it is widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, food and feed industries. Usually, L-tryptophan can be produced by chemical synthesis, proteolysis, enzymatic conversion, direct fermentation and other methods. [0003] As far as fermentation methods are concerned, it has been reported in the art that by improving the fermentation process itself (such as adjusting stirring and oxygen supply, optimizing medium composition, real-time regulation of sugar concentration or product concentration in fermentation broth, etc.), or by means of traditional mutagenesis screening methods To weake...
