Overexpression of thermostable meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase to redirect diaminopimelate pathway for increasing L-lysine production in Escherichia coli
Abstract
Dehydrogenase pathway, one of diaminopimelate pathway, is important to the biosynthesis of L-lysine and peptidoglycan via one single reaction catalyzed by meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase (DapDH). In this study, the thermostable DapDH was introduced into diaminopimelate pathway that increased the final titer (from 71.8 to 119.5 g/L), carbon yield (from 35.3% to 49.1%) and productivity (from 1.80 to 2.99 g/(L∙h)) of L-lysine by LATR12-2∆rpiB::ddhSt in fed-batch fermentation. To do this, the kinetic properties and the effects of different DapDHs on L-lysine production were investigated, and the results indicated that overexpression of StDapDH in LATR12-2 was beneficial to construct an L-lysine producer with good productive performance because it exhibited the best of kinetic characteristics and optimal temperature as well as thermostability in reductive amination. Furthermore, ammonium availability was optimized, and found that 20 g/L of (NH4)2SO4 was the optimal ammonium concentration for improving the efficiency of L-lysine production by LATR12-2∆rpiB::ddhSt. Metabolomics analysis showed that introducing the StDapDH significantly enhanced carbon flux into pentose phosphate pathway and L-lysine biosynthetic pathway, thus incre...Continue Reading

Bacterial Cell Wall Structure (ASM)
Bacterial cell walls are made of peptidoglycan (also called murein), which is made from polysaccharide chains cross-linked by unusual peptides containing D-amino acids. Here is the latest research on bacterial cell wall structures.
