This application claims foreign priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202111445669.8, filed on Dec. 1, 2021 in the China National Intellectual Property Administration, the disclosures of all of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
The disclosure belongs to the technical field of biological engineering, particularly to a method and strains for reducing byproduct succinic acid in a fermentation process of L-malic acid, and use thereof.
L-malic acid, as an important organic acid, is widely present in plants, animals and microorganisms, is an important intermediate mesostate in a tricarboxylic acid cycle in an organism and widely applied to the fields of foods, medicines and chemical industry and the like. In food industry, malic acid combined with citric acid is broadly used as a food sour regulating agent due to natural fragrance of apples. In addition, malic acid can be used for food preservation and is combined with other preservatives, etc.; in medicine industry, malic acid is often used for treating abnormal liver functions and hyperammonemia because it can directly participate in metabolism of a human body, and is also often used in amino acid injection drugs to help the utilization of amino acids, etc.; in chemical industry, malic acid is ordinarily used for metal cleaning, printing and dyeing industry, non-electrolysis cladding layers, oil varnish and the like. Malic acid is initially extracted from fruits such as apples, and this method cannot satisfy the demand of a large-scale market due to limitation by contents, raw materials and other factors.
At present, industrialized production ways of malic acid mainly include a chemical synthesis method and a biological catalysis method. The chemical synthesis method uses petroleum base chemical benzene as a raw material to obtain racemic DL-malic acid under the conditions of high temperature and high pressure; as early as 1970, FDA banned DL-malic acid to be added in infant foods; in addition, the chemical synthesis method has high equipment requirements and fast equipment depreciation, which restricts its application in the fields of foods and medicines. Moreover, raw material sources of this method are petroleum base chemicals, which is a great challenge for increasingly decreasing petroleum energy and environment problems. The biological catalysis method is mainly an immobilized enzyme or immobilized cell transformation method. The immobilized enzyme method is high in extraction, purification and immobilization costs of an enzyme, and therefore causes revenues to be limited to a certain extent; the immobilized cell transformation method has the disadvantages that since living cells themselves contain a complicated enzyme system, many byproducts are easily formed, so as to increase the downstream purification cost of a product. In summary, malic acid prepared by the chemical synthesis method and the biological catalysis method difficultly satisfies an increasing demand on malic acid in the market.
Compared with the above two methods, a microbiological fermentation method pays more and more attentions because of its environmental friendliness, renewable carbon sources and the like. However, currently, this method has the defects of few safe strain selectivity, low product conversion rate or production efficiency, many heteroacid byproducts and high heteroacid byproduct content, which seriously restricts the industrialization progress for production of L-malic acid via a fermentation method.
By retrieval, patent public documents associated with this invention patent application have not yet been found so far.
