  • Patent number: 11479778
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical field of gene engineering and particularly relates to a method for constructing non-de novo synthesized Mucor circinelloides recombinant strain with high lipid yield, recombinant strain constructed by method, and application of recombinant strain. According to the present invention, a diacylglycerol acyltransferase gene (DGAT) is overexpressed in Mucor circinelloides WJ11 by a homologous recombination technology, and exogenous oil is added for fermentation, such that the non-de novo synthesized Mucor circinelloides recombinant strain with high lipid yield is constructed. Compared with the control strain Mc2075, the fat yield of the Mucor circinelloides is increased; and when the diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) is transformed into the uracil defective type of Mucor circinelloides WJ11, the fatty acid composition changes after fermentation, and the lipid content may reach 53% of dry cell weight after the fermentation condition is optimized.

  • Patent number: 11414650
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a construction method of a Mucor circinelloides cell factory for producing dihomo-?-linolenic acid and a fermentation technology, belonging to the field of genetic engineering. In the present disclosure, ?-linolenic acid elongase gene glelo is obtained from Mortierella alpine by cloning, the gene is ligated to an integrative plasmid pMAT1552, and transformed into a Mucor circinelloides defective strain Mu402, and the gene glelo is integrated into Mucor circinelloides genome through homologous recombination, to obtain the recombinant strain Mc-glelo, and finally, the expression of the gene glelo in Mucor circinelloides is realized. The lipid content in the recombinant strain Mc-glelo is not obviously different from that in the control strain Mc1552, however, the lipid composition changes greatly, and dihomo-?-linolenic acid appears in the lipids of the recombinant strain Mc-glelo, and the content thereof reaches 5.7% of the total fatty acids.
