제목 Efficient production of β-alanine using metabolically engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum
초록 β-Alanine is an important beta-amino acid with growing demand in the fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The current industrial production of β-alanine still relies on chemical synthesis, with harmful raw materials and harsh operational conditions, causing the final product difficult to meet safety requirements for human use. Thus, alternative routes of β-alanine production are highly desirable to enhance environmental sustainability. In this study, we constructed a Corynebacterium glutamicum for high-level β-alanine production through systematic experimental design and application of genome-scale metabolic simulation-based strategies, including screening the best enzymes for β-alanine biosynthesis and enhancement of glucose uptake system and anaplerotic pathway. Our integrated metabolic engineering strategies generated a strain that could produce 166.6 g/L of β-alanine with 1.74 g/L/h productivity from fed-batch fermentation, the highest titer and productivity ever reported. This work presents a promising result for high-titer production of β-alanine using recombinant C. glutamicum achieved by systems metabolic engineering strategies.
