The invention discloses recombinant
bacteria used for producing beta-
carotene and a construction method utilizing a
Crispr-Cas9 technology. A Ku70
gene is subjected to knockout from
yarrowia lipolytica, and then phytoene synthase /
lycopene cyclase (carRA), phytoene desaturase (carB),
geranyl pyrophosphate synthetase (GGS1) and a 3-hydroxy-3-methyl
glutaryl coenzyme A reductase (tHMG)
gene take snfas a target point and are integrated in a
yarrowia lipolytica
gene set after knockout of the ku70 gene, wherein the phytoene synthase /
lycopene cyclase (carRA) and phytoene desaturase (carB) are from
blakeslea trispora, and the
geranyl pyrophosphate synthetase (GGS1) and the 3-hydroxy-3-methyl
glutaryl coenzyme A reductase (tHMG) gene are from the
yarrowia lipolytica; the
Crispr-Cas9 technology isutilized for regulating the copy number of the carRA, the carRA, the GGS1 and the tHMG, and the recombinant
bacteria capable of producing the high-yield beta-
carotene is constructed. After the recombinant
bacteria is fermented, cultured, extracted and separated, the content of the beta-
carotene can reach the
dry cell weight of 35 mg / g, and the
bacterial strain stability is high.
