The present invention relates to a recombinant microorganism having an enhanced ability to produce 1,3-propanediol and a method for producing 1,3-propanediol using the same.
1,3-propanediol is an alcohol (represented by CH2OHCH2CH2OH) having three carbons and two hydroxyl (—OH) groups and can be used as a monomer for for polymers such as polyesters or polyurethanes. In addition, 1,3-propanediol can be used as an additive for improving properties of cosmetics and personal care products. Particularly, polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) which is a linear aromatic polyester produced by polymerization of 1,3-propanediol and terephthalic acid has a unique twisted linkage called kinks created on a semi-crystal molecular structure of a polymer chain, and thus exhibits excellent elasticity and shape stability. Due to such a structural property, PPT can be used in a broad range of applications such as fibers, packages, films, non-woven fabric structures, engineering plastics, and the like.
1,3-propanediol can be synthesized by chemical synthesis and biological synthesis. As a chemical method, 1,3-propanediol can be produced by hydrogenation using ethylene oxide or acrolein as a raw material. However, this method has problems such as high cost and production of wastes containing environmental contaminants.
As a biological method, 1,3-propanediol can be produced from fermentation by recombinant Escherichia coli using corn derived sugars as a raw material or from fermentation by a 1,3-propanediol producing strain (1,3-propanediol natural producer) using glycerol as a raw material. A microorganism (recombinant Escherichia coli) which produces 1,3-propanediol using sugars derived from biomass such as corn was developed by DuPont, USA and has been used in industrialized production (WO 2001/12833). On the other hand, microorganisms capable of producing 1,3-propanediol using glycerol as a raw material has been known for over a century. Examples of such strains can include microorganisms belonging to genus Klebsiella, genus Enterobacter, genus Clostridium, genus Citrobacter, genus Lactobacillus, and the like. Such microorganisms produce 1,3-propanediol by a reductive metabolic pathway of glycerol and are provided with a carbon source and an energy source required for growth and a coenzyme (NAHD) required for 1,3-propanediol production by an oxidative metabolic pathway.
Klebsiella pneumoniae as a representative 1,3-propanediol producing microorganism is a gram negative (G(−)) bacterium, and has an excellent property of producing not only 1,3-propanediol but also 2,3-butanediol. This property can be a limitation on production of 1,3-propanediol using glycerol as a raw material since 2,3-butanediol has a boiling point similar to 1,3-propanediol, which creates problems such as making purification procedures difficult and lowering final purification yields. In order to solve these problems, research has been performed to construct variants having only a reductive metabolic pathway of producing 1,3-propanediol by employing a genetic recombination technology, i.e., by blocking an oxidative metabolic pathway of producing byproducts among glycerol metabolic pathways so as not to produce oxidative metabolic byproducts such as 2,3-butanediol. However, this method had a problem of poor 1,3-propanediol productivity, making commercial application difficult (Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0122166).
As a result of earnest investigation aimed at developing a recombinant microorganism capable of producing less oxidative metabolic byproducts including 2,3-butanediol upon production of 1,3-propanediol, the present inventors identified that a recombinant microorganism in which specific genes are deleted produces decreased amount of byproducts without lowering production yield and productivity of 1,3-propanediol. Based on this finding, the present invention has been completed.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a recombinant microorganism having an enhanced ability to produce 1,3-propanediol and a method for producing 1,3-propanediol using the same.
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention,
there is provided a recombinant microorganism for producing 1,3-propanediol,
wherein a pathway for converting pyruvate into 2,3-butanediol is suppressed in a microorganism having pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for producing 1,3-propanediol, including:
culturing the recombinant microorganism according to the present invention; and harvesting 1,3-propanediol from the culture solution.
A recombinant microorganism according to the present invention can produce 1,3-propanediol with high selectivity and yield without producing 2,3-butanediol which makes purification processes difficult by suppressing production of main byproducts including lactate, 2,3-butanediol, formic acid, and the like in a glycerol metabolic pathway.
The present invention relates to
a recombinant microorganism for producing 1,3-propanediol,
wherein a pathway for converting pyruvate into 2,3-butanediol is suppressed in a microorganism having pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways.
In addition, the present invention relates to a method for producing 1,3-propanediol, including:
culturing the recombinant microorganism according to the present invention; and
harvesting 1,3-propanediol from the culture solution.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
Microorganism Having Pyruvate and Acetyl-CoA Biosynthetic Pathways
The microorganism according to the present invention has pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways. Herein, the acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathway refers to a pathway for synthesizing acetyl-CoA from a specific metabolite in a microorganism. The acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathway may also refer to a pathway for synthesizing acetyl-CoA from pyruvate. The pyruvate biosynthetic pathway refers to a pathway for synthesizing pyruvate from a specific metabolite in a microorganism. The pyruvate biosynthetic pathway may also refer to a pathway for synthesizing pyruvate from phosphoenol pyruvic acid (PEP). Preferably, the microorganism according to the present invention has pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways from a carbon source such as glycerol.
The microorganism having pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways according to the present invention is not particularly limited as long as the microorganism has the aforementioned biosynthetic pathways. In addition, the microorganism according to the present invention may be a microorganism having wild type pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways or a recombinant microorganism having pyruvate and acetyl-CoA biosynthetic pathways by genetic recombination.

Recombinant Microorganism for Producing 1,3-Propanediol
The recombinant microorganism for producing 1,3-propanediol according to the present invention has high 1,3-propanediol productivity and yield, and is characterized by a higher concentration of 1,3-propanediol in a fermented solution than a wild type microorganism upon fermentation. In addition, in the recombinant microorganism according to the present invention, production of oxidative byproducts such as lactate, formic acid, 2,3-butanediol and succinic acid is suppressed. Particularly, in the recombinant microorganism according to the present invention, production of 2,3-butanediol is suppressed wherein 2,3-butanediol has a boiling point similar to 1,3-propanediol as a target product, which renders purification difficult and thus lowers final purification yield. Preferably, the recombinant microorganism according to the present invention has no ability to produce formic acid, 2,3-butanediol, and succinic acid. The expression “having no ability to produce formic acid, 2,3-butanediol, and succinic acid” means that the microorganism does not produce substantial amounts of formic acid, 2,3-butanediol, and succinic acid, and means that there is no need for a separate process for removing formic acid, 2,3-butanediol, and succinic acid.

More preferably, a pathway for converting pyruvate into 2,3-butanediol and a pathway for converting pyruvate into lactate are suppressed, or a pathway for converting pyruvate into 2,3-butanediol and a pathway for converting pyruvate into formic acid are suppressed. Still more preferably, a pathway for converting pyruvate into 2,3-butanediol, a pathway for converting pyruvate into lactate, and a pathway for converting pyruvate into formic acid are suppressed.
Preferably, the recombinant microorganism for producing 1,3-propanediol according to the present invention produces 1,3-propanediol with a yield of 0.40 g/g or more and a productivity of 1.5 g/L/hr or more on the basis of batch fermentation.

Preferably, in the recombinant microorganism according to the present invention, the pathway for converting pyruvate into 2,3-butanediol is suppressed by suppressing one or more enzymes among α-acetolactate decarboxylase, α-acetolactate synthase, and acetoin reductase. More preferably, α-acetolactate decarboxylase, α-acetolactate synthase, and acetoin reductase are suppressed. Still more preferably, expression of budR, budA, budB and budC which are genes encoding the aforementioned enzymes and regulating expression thereof is suppressed.

A pathway for converting pyruvate into acetyl-CoA may be suppressed by suppressing pyruvate-formate lyase. Suppression of pyruvate-formate lyase may be performed by expression suppression of pyruvate-formate lyase, suppression of enzyme activity of pyruvate-formate lyase, and the like. For example, those skilled in the art could easily suppress pyruvate-formate lyase by selecting suitable methods, such as deleting pflB which is a gene encoding pyruvate-formate lyase, causing mutations in the gene (mutations such as suppression of normal gene expression through modifying, substituting or deleting a partial nucleotide sequence or introducing a partial nucleotide sequence), regulating gene expression during transcription or translation, and the like.

The recombinant strains constructed in Experimental Example 1 were cultured, thereby producing 1,3-propanediol. As a control for comparison, a wild type Klebsiella pneumoniae GSC123 (Kp wt) was used.
250 ml of a complex medium was inoculated with each recombinant strain, followed by culturing at 37° C. for 16 hours. 3 L of complex medium was inoculated with the resulting culture solution, and subjected to fermentation. The fermentation conditions were as follows: microaerobic conditions (aeration rate of 1 vvm, stirring speed of 200 rpm), 46 g/L of glycerol (500 mM glycerol), pH 7.0, and cultivation temperature of 37° C. While fermenting, ammonia (NH3) was used in order to adjust pH. Samples were taken while fermenting using the recombinant Klebsiella. The growth rate was determined by measuring OD600 (optical density) of the sampled specimens. The sampled specimens were subjected to centrifugation at 13,000 rpm for 10 minutes, followed by assaying the concentration of metabolites and 1,3-propanediol in the supernatant by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
As a result, the recombinant strain (Kp ΔldhA) in which ldhA was deleted produced a remarkably reduced amount of lactate which was a major byproduct of the wild type Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp wt). However, the strain produced an increased amount of other byproducts such as formic acid, 2,3-butanediol, ethanol, acetic acid, and succinic acid, which in turn decreased production concentration and production yield of final 1,3-propanediol. In addition, the recombinant strain (KpΔldhA ΔpflB) in which both ldhA and NW were deleted at the same time showed greatly reduced byproducts except 2,3-butanediol while improved production concentration and production yield of 1,3-propanediol as compared to the wild type Klebsiella pneumoniae GSC123 (Kp wt) or the ldhA deleted Klebsiella pneumoniae Kp ΔldhA. However, concentration of 2,3-butanediol was also greatly increased.
As compared to recombinant strains, namely, Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudA or Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudC in which a part of enzyme family related to 2,3-butanediol synthesis was deleted, the recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudRABC in which the entire operon of 2,3-butanediol was deleted exhibited the highest 1,3-propanediol concentration and the lowest byproduct production. In view of production yield and productivity, the recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudRABC showed the best results. Meanwhile, the recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudA in which budA was deleted in order to reduce accumulation of 2,3-butanediol and the recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudRABC in which budRABC were deleted in order to reduce accumulation of 2,3-butanediol were found to be effective. However, the recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudC in which budC was deleted was found to have no effect. The recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudA in which budA was deleted showed poor fermentation performance, exhibiting residual glycerol after 24 hours of fermentation which was close to the end point of fermentation. The recombinant strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB ΔbudRABC in which budRABC was deleted showed fermentation patterns that were similar to those of parent strain Kp ΔldhA ΔpflB, thereby not producing 2,3-butanediol (Tables 7 and 8,

In addition, the present invention relates to a method for producing 1,3-propanediol using the recombinant microorganism.
