摘要
【目的】改造大肠杆菌缬氨酸合成途径,使其能够代谢合成异丁醇。【方法】将乳酸乳球菌(Lactococcus lactis)1.2829的2-酮异戊酸脱羧酶基因(kivD)和醇脱氢酶基因(adhA)串联克隆到大肠杆菌DH5α宿主中表达。【结果】经过改造的宿主菌发酵24 h后异丁醇产量为0.12 g/L。酶活测定实验发现,kivD和adhA基因在宿主菌中均得到表达,但由于KivD的低表达量导致宿主菌最终的异丁醇合成能力偏低。通过研究温度和pH对KivD和AdhA酶活的影响,最终选定二者的最适温度为30°C,最适pH为6.5。【结论】通过向宿主菌导入外源异丁醇合成基因能够改造其自身代谢途径,从而合成异丁醇。
[Objective] E. coli DH5u modified the valine biosynthesis pathway to biosynthesize isobutanol. [Methods] The 2-ketoisovalerate decarboxylase gene (kivD) and alcohol dehydrogenase gene (adhA) of Lactococcus lactis 1.2829 were tandemly cloned and expressed in E. coli DH5α. [Results] The yield of isobatanol by the engineered E. coli was only 0.12 g/L by 24 h fermentation. Further results revealed that the insufficient KivD activity is the bottleneck for the isobutanol biosynthesis. A series of experiments also showed that the optimal tempera- ture and pH for both KivD and AdhA are 30 ℃ and pH 6.5, respectively. [Conclusion] Isobatanol fermentation by cloning and expressing essential genes in host is feasible.
