Effect of growth phase feeding strategies on succinate production by metabolically engineered Escherichia coli.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aerobic growth conditions significantly influenced anaerobic succinate production in two-stage fermentation by Escherichia coli AFP111 with knockouts in rpoS, pflAB, ldhA, and ptsG genes. At a low cell growth rate limited by glucose, enzymes involved in the reductive arm of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the glyoxylate shunt showed elevated activities, providing AFP111 with intracellular redox balance and increased succinic acid yield and productivity.

Fermentation of glycerol to succinate by metabolically engineered strains of Escherichia coli.
The fermentative metabolism of Escherichia coli was reengineered to efficiently convert glycerol to succinate under anaerobic conditions without the use of foreign genes. Formate and ethanol were the dominant fermentation products from glycerol in wild-type Escherichia coli ATCC 8739, followed by succinate and acetate. Inactivation of pyruvate formate-lyase (pflB) in the wild-type strain elimin...
متن کاملEfficient production of polylactic acid and its copolymers by metabolically engineered Escherichia coli.
Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the promising biodegradable polymers, which has been produced in a rather complicated two-step process by first producing lactic acid by fermentation followed by ring opening polymerization of lactide, a cyclic dimer of lactic acid. Recently, we reported the production of PLA and its copolymers by direct fermentation of metabolically engineered Escherichia coli e...
متن کاملHomolactate fermentation by metabolically engineered Escherichia coli strains.
We report the homofermentative production of lactate in Escherichia coli strains containing mutations in the aceEF, pfl, poxB, and pps genes, which encode the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, pyruvate formate lyase, pyruvate oxidase, and phosphoenolpyruvate synthase, respectively. The process uses a defined medium and two distinct fermentation phases: aerobic growth to an optical density of abou...
متن کاملTargeted optimization of central carbon metabolism for engineering succinate production in Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND Succinate is a kind of industrially important C4 platform chemical for synthesis of high value added products. Due to the economical and environmental advantages, considerable efforts on metabolic engineering and synthetic biology have been invested for bio-based production of succinate. Precursor phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) is consumed for transport and phosphorylation of glucose, and...
متن کاملL-malate production by metabolically engineered Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli strains (KJ060 and KJ073) that were previously developed for succinate production have now been modified for malate production. Many unexpected changes were observed during this investigation. The initial strategy of deleting fumarase isoenzymes was ineffective, and succinate continued to accumulate. Surprisingly, a mutation in fumarate reductase alone was sufficient to redirec...
