제목 Systems metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for overproduction of diaminopentane
초록 Cadaverine is an important platform chemical having many applications in chemical industry. Here, we report development of a metabolically engineered strain of Escherichia coli that overproduces cadaverine in glucose mineral salts medium. We first inactivated cadaverine degradation and utilization pathways. Next, L-lysine decarboxylase, which converts L-lysine directly to cadaverine, was amplified with plasmid-based overexpression of the cadA gene under the strong tac promoter. Furthermore, the L-lysine biosynthetic pool was increased by the overexpression of the dapA gene encoding dihydrodipicolinate synthase through the replacement of the native promoter with the strong trc promoter in the genome. The engineered strain was able to produce 9.61 g/L of cadaverine with a productivity of 0.32 g/L/h by fed-batch cultivation.
