  • Patent number: 11512319
    Abstract: The present invention provides a recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum producing N-acetylglucosamine and use thereof. The recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum is obtained by overexpressing, in Corynebacterium glutamicum, the transcription factor SugR derived therefrom. The recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum of the present invention increases the production of acetylglucosamine to up to 26 g/L, and lays a foundation for further metabolic engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum to produce glucosamine.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220106366
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a RamA transcription factor mutant for promoting the production of N-acetylglucosamine and use thereof. The mutant is obtained by mutating lysine at position 90 to asparagine and serine at position 92 to lysine in a parent having an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 2. The present invention provides a genetically engineered strain that overexpresses the RamA transcription factor mutant and increases the production of N-acetylglucosamine. By overexpressing the transcription factor RamA that is involved in the regulation of carbon metabolism, the extracellular accumulation of N-acetylglucosamine is increased, with a maximum concentration reaching 31.5 g/L, which lays a foundation for further metabolic engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum to produce glucosamine. The method for constructing recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum of the invention is simple, and convenient in use, and thus has good application prospects.

  • Patent number: 10934552
    Abstract: The disclosure herein relates to construction and application of engineering bacteria capable of secreting and expressing diacetylchitobiose deacetylase, and belongs to the technical field of fermentation engineering. Firstly, recombinant B. subtilis capable of heterologously secreting and expressing a diacetylchitobiose deacetylase gene is constructed, and a signal peptide fragment yncM is added into the recombinant vector for the first time. The signal peptide can secrete the target protein diacetylchitobiose deacetylase outside the cells of the recombinant B. subtilis, and a mutant of the 5?-end untranslated region is acquired, thereby significantly increasing the expression level of the target protein, and greatly simplifying the subsequent enzyme separation and purification steps. When the acquired diacetylchitobiose deacetylase is fermented and cultured in a fermentation medium for 50-60 h, the enzyme activity reaches a maximum of 1,548.
