Abstract
Biosynthesis of D-arabitol, a high value-added platform chemical, from renewable carbon sources provides a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to the chemical industry. Here, a robust brewing yeast, Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, capable of naturally producing D-arabitol was rewired through genome sequencing-based metabolic engineering. The recombinant Z. rouxii obtained by reinforcing the native D-xylulose pathway, improving reductive power of the rate-limiting step, and inhibiting the shunt pathway, produced 73.61% higher D-arabitol than the parent strain. Subsequently, optimization of the fermentation medium composition for the engineered strain provided 137.36 g/L D-arabitol, with a productivity of 0.64 g/L/h in a fed-batch experiment. Finally, the downstream separation of D-arabitol from the complex fermentation broth using an ethanol precipitation method provided a purity of 96.53%. This study highlights the importance of D-xylulose pathway modification in D-arabitol biosynthesis, and pave a complete and efficient way for the sustainable manufacturing of this value-added compound from biosynthesis to preparation.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 367:128251. [PMID: 36334865 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2022.128251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 10/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
d-Arabitol is a top value-added compound with wide applications in the food, pharmaceutical and biochemical industries. Nevertheless, sustainable biosynthesis of d-arabitol is limited by lack of efficient strains and suitable fermentation process. Herein, metabolic engineering and process optimization were performed in Zygosaccharomyces rouxii to overcoming these limitations. Adopting systems metabolic engineering include enhancement of innate biosynthetic pathway, supply of precursor substrate d-ribulose-5P and cofactors regeneration, a novel recombinant strain ZR-5A with good performance was obtained, which boosted d-arabitol production up to 29.01 g/L, 59.31 % higher than the parent strain. Further with the optimum medium composition and fed-batch fermentation, the strain ZR-5A finally produced 149.10 g/L d-arabitol with the productivity of 1.04 g/L/h, which was the highest titer ever reported by Z.rouxii system. This is the first report on the use of metabolic engineering to construct Z. rouxii chassis for the sustainable production of d-arabitol.

BIORESOUR BIOPROCESS 2022; 9:106. [PMID: 38647889 PMCID: PMC10991607 DOI: 10.1186/s40643-022-00595-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Gibberellic acid (GA3) is a plant growth hormone that plays an important role in the production of crops, fruits, and vegetables with a wide market share. Due to intrinsic advantages, liquid fermentation of Fusarium fujikuroi has become the sole method for industrial GA3 production, but the broader application of GA3 is hindered by low titer. In this study, we combined atmospheric and room-temperature plasma (ARTP) with ketoconazole-based screening to obtain the mutant strain 3-6-1 with high yield of GA3. Subsequently, the medium composition and fermentation parameters were systematically optimized to increase the titer of GA3, resulting in a 2.5-fold increase compared with the titer obtained under the initial conditions. Finally, considering that the strain is prone to substrate inhibition and glucose repression, a new strategy of fed-batch fermentation was adopted to increase the titer of GA3 to 575.13 mg/L, which was 13.86% higher than the control. The strategy of random mutagenesis combined with selection and fermentation optimization developed in this study provides a basis for subsequent research on the industrial production of GA3.
