Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of polyhydroxy acids according to claim 1, a recombinant bacterial strain according to claim 19, a polyhydroxy fatty acid according to claim 23 and a DNA fragment according to claim 33.
- a major disadvantage of organic synthetic plastics is that many of these plastics have enormous biological half-lives or cannot be disposed of in landfills or in waste incineration plants in a harmless manner, but rather aggressive gases are frequently generated, as is the case, for example of polyvinyl chloride, which releases hydrogen chloride gas during combustion.
- a first step towards success on environmentally compatible materials was achieved with the synthetic plastics, for example with the paraffin-like polymers polyethylene, polypropylene, since these essentially only release CO 2 and water during combustion.
- renewable raw materials such as plants that contain a lot of polysaccharide, such as potatoes, maize, wheat, beans, peas or the like, to obtain the polysaccharides that occur naturally in these plants and to use them to produce polymers that can be used in plastics technology to produce which are biodegradable.
- hydroxy fatty acids were used as building blocks of naturally occurring polyhydroxy fatty acids (PHF) wrote.
- the hydroxyl group of this PHF is usually in the 3 'position.
- the aliphatic side chains are either saturated or mono- or di-unsaturated. They are thus unbranched or branched and they can be substituted with functional groups such as halogen atoms, preferably bromine, iodine, chlorine, cyano groups, ester groups, carboxyl groups or also with cyclically aliphatic and even aromatic groups.
- the hydroxyl group is also in the 4 'or 5' position.
- poly (3-hydroxybutyric acid) has been detected in eukaryotes as the only PHF.
- This polyester comes in yeasts such as Saccharomyces cere visiae, various plants, for example cauliflower, various organs from animals, for example liver, and also in humans, for example in blood plasma, before [Reusch, RN 1992, Biological complexes of polyhydroxybutyrate, FEMS Microbiol. Rev. 103: 119-130].
- the proportion of poly (3-hydroxybutyric acid) in eukaryotes is at most 0.1% by weight. Inclusions in the form of grana, as they occur in prokaryotes, are not known in eukaryotes.
- the eukaryotic PHF are usually not in free form, but the polyester is either bound to other proteins or as a complex spanning the cytoplasmic membrane together with calcium ions and polyphosphate molecules.
- the biosynthesis of PHF in bacteria can be divided into three phases:
- phase I the carbon source offered to the bacteria in the medium is first absorbed into the bacterial cell.
- Either special uptake transport systems have to exist for the corresponding carbon source or the cells are cultivated under conditions which create a certain artificial permeability of the cytoplasmic membrane for the carbon source.
- Some non-ionic carbon sources for example fatty acids in non-dissociated form, can also get into the cells by passive diffusion.
- phase II the absorbed carbon source is converted into a suitable substrate for the enzyme that is able to produce PHF.
- This enzyme is commonly referred to as polyhydroxy fatty acid synthase.
- Phase III involves the linking of monomeric precursors to the polyester. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme PHF synthase, which is the key enzyme in PHF biosynthesis. These enzymes are bound to the PHF-Grana and they are there on the surface. Due to the very low specificity of most of the PHF synthases investigated to date, which occur in different species, the biosynthesis of a large number of different PHFs is possible. So far, only the coenzyme A thioesters of hydroxy fatty acids have been detected as monomeric biosynthetically active precursors. As shown above, PHF synthase is the key enzyme in PHF synthesis.
- Type I is represented by the PHF synthase from the bacterium Alcaligenes eutrophus, which has been most closely examined with regard to the PHF metabolism and has a molecular weight of approximately 63,940 and catalyzes the synthesis of PHF from short-length hydroxy fatty acids.
- Type II is represented by the Pseudomonas oleovarans PHF synthase.
- the size of this enzyme is similar to that of Type I PHF synthases (molecular mass 62400), but it differs considerably in terms of substrate specificity from Type I PHF synthases. Only 3-hydroxy fatty acids of medium chain length can be incorporated into PHF. In contrast, 4- and 5-hydroxyfatty acids and 3-hydroxybutyric acid are not incorporated into the biosynthesized polyesters. However, the specificity of the enzyme is still so wide that approx. 50 different 3-hydroxy fatty acids can be processed as substrates.
- Type III is represented by Chromatium vinosum PHF synthase. In terms of substrate specificity, this enzyme is similar to Type I PHF synthases. However, it has a significantly lower molecular mass (approx. 39730) and requires a second protein in order to be catalytically active.
- PHF poly(2-hydroxybutyric acid)
- poly (3HB) poly (3HB)
- copolyester poly (3-hydroxybutyric acid-co-3-hydroxyvalerianic acid) poly (3HB-co-3HV)
- these polymers can be prepared using conventional injection molding processes , Extrusion blow molding and injection blow molding processes as well as by fiber spinning techniques.
- the first stage is used to grow the bacterial cells to high densities and takes about 48 hours and only glucose is offered as a substrate.
- the cells have grown into a phosphate limitation and, after a further 40 to 50 hours of cultivation, cell densities of more than 100 g of dry cell mass per liter with a PHF with glucose and with propionic acid as a precursor for the building block 3-hydroxyvaleric acid. Share of more than 70 wt .-% reached.
- the cells are then removed using an enzyme cocktail consisting essentially of lysozyme, proteases and other hydrolyti see enzymes is treated, which releases the PHF grana.
- the granas sediment on the bottom of the reactor and are collected, washed, dried, melted, extruded and granulated from there.
- This PHF is currently produced with a production volume of approx. 300 tons per year.
- poly (3HB) and poly (3HB-co-3HV) have good properties and can be processed using the methods commonly used in plastics technology, their production is still relatively expensive on the one hand and on the other hand only contains them two monomeric subunits, so that the overall properties of the resulting polymer can only be controlled by means of these two parts, and thus a fine control with regard to flexibility, processability in plastics technology systems, resistance to certain solvents etc. cannot be controlled in fine steps .
- 3-hydroxyvaleric acid gives a PHF good flexibility and processability
- the building block 4-hydroxyvaleric acid which can also occur in the PHF synthesized by bacteria, gives the resulting biopolymer a significantly higher degree of flexibility confers than is the case with 3-hydroxyvaleric acid alone.
- the above object is achieved by the features of patent claim 1.
- the object is achieved according to the features of patent claim 19.
- the above object is achieved by the features of patent claim 23.
- the DNA fragment according to claim 33 also achieves the above object.
- it is possible for the first time to produce polyesters containing 4HV, starting from levulinic acid.

- the PHF-free mutants GPpl04 from Pseudomonas putida (Huismann, GW, Wonink, E., Meima, R., Kazemier, W., Trpstra, P. and Witholt, B. (1991) J .Biol.Chem.
- strains have the special property that they contain essentially exactly those DNA fragments which contain and express the genes phaE and phaC; because the gene products phaE and phaC together are able to develop a PHF synthase activity.
- nucleotide sequences which carry the phaE and p ⁇ aC genes can additionally have common control regions, for example promoters, S / D sequences, or the like.
- the inventors of the present invention found that the recombinant bacterial strains which contain and express at least one fragment of the Thiocapsa pfenigii PHF synthase gene are also capable of 5-hydroxyhexanoic acid, its salts, esters and lactones into a copolyester biosynthesized by these bacteria.

- thermoplastic copolymers which had a high degree of biocompatibility, which makes these materials appear to be applicable for use in medical technology - for example as implants - or as sutures or the like.
- the duration of the cultivation of the microorganisms used for the purposes of the present invention depends on the culture conditions, which are mainly dependent on the temperature, the oxygen content of the medium (aerobic conditions) and the medium itself, amount of the carbon source, the mineral salts, the trace elements and / or the pH value.
- the amount of substrate used depends on the particular microorganism. However, concentrations in the range of approx. 0.1% (w / v) to 10% (w / v) can correspond to 100g / l, in particular 0.2 (w / v) to 5% (w / v).
- the cell harvest can generally take place during the log phase up to the stationary phase, preferably it should take place in the stationary phase.
- the bacterial cells can either be obtained from the medium in their entirety after a single culture (batch or fed-batch process) or can be obtained continuously via a continuous culture, for example by conventional centrifugation or filtration processes.
- the harvested cells can, if appropriate after washing, for example with a buffer, preferably with a phosphate buffer, particularly preferably with a sodium phosphate buffer in the neutral range of about pH 7.0, be frozen, lyophilized or treated by spray drying.
- a buffer preferably with a phosphate buffer, particularly preferably with a sodium phosphate buffer in the neutral range of about pH 7.0, be frozen, lyophilized or treated by spray drying.
- polyesters according to the invention can be obtained by known methods, preferably the solution or the extraction is carried out with organic solvents, in particular by halogenated, preferably chlorinated hydrocarbons, particularly preferably by chloroform or methylene chloride.

- biodegradable packaging materials such as foils, bottles, ampoules, cans, bags, boxes, boxes or the like, is possible using the present invention.
- the advantage of preculturing the recombinant bacteria according to claim 2 in a complex medium is that a strong increase in the biomass is initially achieved in this way, in order then to biochemically stimulate the bacteria for the biosynthesis of the desired PHF.
- An additional, growth-promoting carbon source according to claim 3 to add to the nutrient medium for the bacterial culture has the advantage that on the one hand, different subunits can be installed, and on the other hand, that the bacteria sometimes grow considerably faster and at the same time a larger amount of biosynthesize the desired PHF.
- the measures of claim 4 have the advantage that the method of the present invention can be carried out using the methods customary in industrial biotechnology.

- the measures of claims 11, 12 and 13 reflect advantageous process conditions for the biotechnological production of PHF according to the present invention.
- the measures of claims 14 and 15 have the advantages that all methods common in biotechnology for breaking down bacteria can be used to obtain the biotechnologically produced PHF. Since these are generally heavier than the surrounding nutrient medium and the cell debris, the PHF can easily be separated and obtained by accelerated sedimentation, for example by centrifugation.
- the measures of claim 16 have the advantage that the PHF is precipitated by introducing a PHF product dissolved by means of an organic solvent into water or a lower alcohol, preferably ethanol, and a cleaning step is thereby achieved which is a recrystallization process in organic chemistry for cleaning up the desired product.
- an enzyme cocktail according to claims 17 and 18 has the advantage that specifically the bacterial cell wall and the membrane are destroyed enzymatically, so that the grana, which contain the PHF, fall out of the cytoplasm and sediment to the bottom of the reactor.
- proteolytic and lytic enzymes for example lysozyme or lipases
- the entire biotechnological approach essentially consists of macromolecules - namely the desired synthesized polyester - and a large number of smaller molecules which are formed by enzymatic cleavage of the nucleic acids, proteins, glycoproteins, polysaccharides and lipids contained in the cells, as well as the cell wall and cell membrane, and which can thus be easily separated from one another, oh ne that the isolated PHF contain significant impurities from other bacterial compounds.
- detergents are particularly advantageous here, since proteins and nucleic acids in particular are thereby still solubilized and they are then broken down by the other enzymes, as if they were suspended in the aqueous solutions as colloid particles.
- care must be taken that detergents in which the enzymes used are still or even more actively are used.
- Such a mild detergent is, for example, octylglucoside.
- it is known, for example, of the V8 protease from Staphylococcus aureus that it still exhibits a strong proteolytic activity in 1 to 2% sodium dodecyl sulfate.
- Claims 19 to 21 relate to novel recombinant bacterial strains according to the invention which contain and express the genes phaC and phaE from Thiocapsa pfennigii which are relevant for PHF synthesis.
