Abstract

The invention provides a construction method and application of recombinant escherichia coli for synthesizing L-cysteine. The construction method comprises the following transformation ways: (1) adapting an L-cysteine expression plasmid pLH03 and an escherichia coli chassis cell, wherein the chassis cell is a K-12 series strain; (2) performing individual and / or combined expression on the L-cysteine synthetic pathway gene by using constitutive promoters with different intensities; and (3) knocking out an L-cysteine decomposition pathway gene and a precursor L-serine decomposition pathway gene of the L-cysteine decomposition pathway gene independently and / or in combination. The recombinant strain constructed by the invention is relatively less in gene modification, has high yield of L-cysteine, and has relatively high production and application values.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bioengineering, and in particular relates to the construction of a strain for biosynthesizing L-cysteine ​​by recombinant Escherichia coli and a method for fermenting and producing L-cysteine ​​with the strain. Background technique [0002] L-cysteine ​​(L-cysteine) is an amino acid with an active sulfhydryl group. Due to its physiological functions and chemical properties, it is widely used in industries such as medicine, food, agriculture, and daily chemicals (Adv.Biochem.Eng.Biotechnol .2017, 159, 129-151). [0003] In the field of medicine, L-cysteine ​​has a special sulfhydryl group, which has a significant effect on the treatment of many types of diseases. In organisms, L-cysteine ​​has a detoxification effect on many harmful substances such as formaldehyde. When the body has allergies and inflammations that reduce the activity of thiol enzymes, L-cysteine ​​can maintain the activity of thiol enzy...
