제목 Efficient 5-aminolevulininc Acid Production by Elaborate Flux Distribution in Glyoxylate Shunt Pathway in Eshcerichia coli
초록 Microbial fermentation of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) has received attention due to its potential in clinical applications. Overexpression of the related enzymes and its transporter yielded remarkable achievements in ALA production, accompanying with deciphering its regulation. In spite of this, there is still significant room for carbon flux optimization to improve ALA production. This study aimed for precise carbon flux optimization for high ALA production in Escherichia coli. Initially. genes hemA and hemL were overexpressed with strong promoters and synthetic 5'-untranslated regions. Then, TCA cycle was knocked-out for re-distribution of carbon flux toward the ALA production, additional tuning of carbon flux to the glyoxylate shunt by varying the transcription of aceA led to substantially improved cell growth and ALA production. This tuning of the glyoxylate cycle in a quantitative manner should also enable efficient production of other valuable products derived from the TCA cycle.
