Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子DNAが導入されたロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体、及びそれを用いた光学活性アルコール又は光学活性アミノ酸の製造に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
還元型NAD(P)Hが関与する酵素反応において、酵素反応の結果生じた酸化型補酵素NAD(P)を還元型補酵素NAD(P)Hに再生させ、連続的に目的生産物を得る試みがなされている。その際、補酵素の再生は、微生物の持つNAD(P)還元能(解糖系、メチロトローフのC1化合物資化系)を利用する方法、NAD(P)からNAD(P)Hを生成する能力を有する微生物またはその処理物を添加する方法等により実施される。そのような再生を行う酵素としては、ギ酸脱水素酵素、グルコース脱水素酵素、グルコース6リン酸脱水素酵素、アセトアルデヒド脱水素酵素、ヒドロゲナーゼ等が知られている(Biotechnology 1,677 (1983), J. Am. Chem. Soc. 102, 7104 (1980), Biotechnology Lett. 2, 445 (1980), J. Am. Chem. Soc. 103, 4890 (1981))。
【0003】
しかしながら、従来の再生では、繰り返しの反応や連続的な生産反応の際、微生物菌体の機械的破砕、溶菌等により、再生された補酵素が菌体外へ漏出し、反応系から失われる問題があった。
【0004】
具体的には、大腸菌組換え体を用いた場合、反応中に溶菌を生じ、反応時に補酵素が菌体外に漏れてしまう問題があった。
【0005】
また、微生物菌体を適当な担体に固定した固定化酵素を用いた連続生産反応においても上述と同様に、反応と共に補酵素は反応系外へ漏出し、随時、補酵素を添加しなければならなかった。
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、再生された補酵素が漏出することなく、効率的に連続生産を可能とする補酵素再生系を構築された遺伝子組換え体の提供、及び補酵素依存性還元酵素による光学活性体、特に光学活性アルコール又は光学活性アミノ酸の製造方法を提供することを目的とする。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記課題に鑑み、鋭意検討を行った結果、細胞表層が強固で、産業的に有用な多種の酵素を産生するロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌に、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子を導入することにより、補酵素の漏出がないロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体を作成できることを見いだした。また、それを使用することにより、光学活性体の効率的な生産が可能であることを見いだし、本発明を完成するに至った。
【0008】
さらには、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子及び補酵素依存性還元酵素遺伝子の両者をロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌に導入することにより、該補酵素依存性還元酵素による光学活性体の生産が可能であること、且つ菌体外への補酵素の漏れ、添加なく菌体の再利用による生産が可能であることを見いだし、本発明を完成するに至った。
【0009】
すなわち、本発明は、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子及び/又は補酵素依存性還元酵素をコードする遺伝子を細胞表層の強固なロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌に導入することにより得られるロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体、及びその組換え体を使用した光学活性アミノ酸又は光学活性アルコールの製造方法、である。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明において、「補酵素」としてはNAD(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)、NADP(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチドリン酸)、FAD(フラビンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)等が挙げられる。
【0011】
「補酵素再生系」とは、補酵素依存性還元酵素による還元反応の結果として酸化型に変換された補酵素を還元型に再生する、又は補酵素依存性酸化酵素による酸化反応の結果として還元型に変換された補酵素を酸化型に再生することをいう。
【0012】
上記の補酵素再生系に使用される酵素及びその遺伝子DNAとしては、上記酸化型又は還元型補酵素が再生できれば特に制限はないが、例えばグルコース脱水素酵素、グリセロール脱水素酵素など糖関連物質の脱水素酵素、ギ酸脱水素酵素、イソプロパノール脱水素酵素、ブタンオール脱水素酵素などのアルコール脱水素酵素、ロイシン脱水素酵素、フェニルアラニン脱水素酵素、アラニン脱水素酵素、グルタミン酸脱水素酵素などのアミノ酸脱水素酵素、乳酸脱水素酵素、ピルビン酸脱水素酵素などの有機酸脱水素酵素、オピン脱水素酵素等、及びそれらをコードする遺伝子DNAである(J.Pters , Biotechnology 2nd Ed. vol.8a Chapter9 p391−474)。
【0013】
ここで、ギ酸脱水素酵素とは、ギ酸を酸化して二酸化炭素に変換する酵素活性を有するものであるが(Biochem. J. 301, 625−643(1994))、この酵素反応は酸化還元反応であるため、補酵素の還元力が必要とされる。ギ酸脱水素酵素に用いることのできる補酵素としてはNAD(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)、NADP(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチドリン酸)、FAD(フラビンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)などが挙げられるが、NAD(P)H依存型の還元酵素が最も多く報告されており、工業的利用を目的とした場合、NAD(P)を用いることがより好ましい。
【0014】
ギ酸脱水素酵素遺伝子としては、例えばマイコバクテリウム属由来の遺伝子(Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. Vol. 44 p479−483( 1995 ) )、シュードモナス属由来の遺伝子(Biotechnol. Appl. Biochem. Vol. 18 p201−207( 1993 )、Eur. J. Biochem. Vol. 83 p485−498( 1978 ) )、パラコッカス属由来の遺伝子(Biosci. Biotech. Biochem. Vol. 56 p1966−1970( 1992 ) )、モラクセラ属由来の遺伝子(Journal Of Bacteriology Vol. 170 p3189−3193( 1988 ) )、メチロモナス属由来の遺伝子(Biochem. J. Vol. 93 p281−290( 1964 )、Z. Allg. Mikrobiol. Vol. 20 p167−175( 1980 )、また、酵母としてカンジダ属由来の遺伝子(Eur. J. Biochem. Vol. 152 p657−662( 1985 ) 、Gene Vol. 162 p99−104( 1995 )、Eur. J. Biochem. Vol. 62 p151−160( 1976 )、Biochim.Biophys. Acta Vol. 566 p12−20( 1979 ) )、ハンセヌラ属由来の遺伝子( EP0299108 A1,B1、特開平2−124093)ペニバシルス属由来の遺伝子(近畿大学工学部研究報告 No. 14 p133−139( 1980 ), No. 15 p115−123( 1981 ), No. 16 p141−152( 1982 ))等が挙げられる。
【0015】
アミノ酸脱水素酵素とは、α―ケト酸、アンモニアを基質とし、α―ケト酸のα位のカルボニル基をアミノ基に還元する能力を有するものをいう。アミノ酸脱水素酵素に用いることのできる補酵素としてはNAD(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)の還元型であるNADH、NADP(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチドリン酸)の還元型であるNADPH、FAD(フラビンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)の還元型であるFADHなどが挙げられるが、NAD(P)H依存型の還元酵素が最も多く報告されており、工業的利用を目的とした場合、NAD(P)Hを用いることが好ましい。
【0016】
アルコール脱水素酵素とは、α―ケト酸を基質とし、α位のカルボニル基をヒドロキシ基に還元する能力を有するものである。アミノ酸脱水素酵素に用いることのできる補酵素としてはNAD(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)の還元型であるNADH、NADP(ニコチンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチドリン酸)の還元型であるNADPH、FAD(フラビンアミドアデニンジヌクレオチド)の還元型であるFADHなどが挙げられるが、NAD(P)H依存型の還元酵素が最も多く報告されており、工業的利用を目的とした場合、NAD(P)Hを用いることが好ましい。
【0017】
まず、本発明は、「補酵素依存性還元酵素を産生するロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌に、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子DNAが導入されたロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体」を提供するものである。
【0018】
この場合、ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌が補酵素依存性還元酵素を産生するので、還元反応の結果、生成した酸化型補酵素を還元型補酵素に再生する系を構築すれば効率的な生産が可能となる。補酵素依存性還元酵素を産生するロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌としては、ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌、ロドコッカス ロドクロウス(Rhodococcus rhodochrous) ATCC12674、ロドコッカス ロドクロウス(Rhodococcus rhodochrous) ATCC19140、ロドコッカス ロドクロウス(Rhodococcus rhodochrous) ATCC17895、ロドコッカス エリスロポリス(Rhodococcus erythropolis) JCM3201、ロドコッカス属(Rhodococcus sp.) N774(FERM BP−960)、ロドコッカス属(Rhodococcus sp.) NCIMB11215が例示できる。
【0019】
酸化型補酵素の還元型補酵素補酵素への再生は、例えば上述したギ酸脱水素酵素、グルコース脱水素酵素、グルコース6リン酸脱水素酵素、リンゴ酸脱水素酵素、アルコール脱水素酵素の酵素反応を利用して行う。これらの酵素はロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌内で産生させる必要があるため、それらの酵素をコードする遺伝子DNAをロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌内に導入する。
【0020】
導入の方法としては、遺伝子工学分野で慣用されている技術に準じて行うことができる<Molecular Cloning 2nd Edt., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press(1989)>。ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌に関しては、ロドコッカス ロドクロス(Rhodococcus rhodochrous)やロドコッカス エリスロポリス(Rhodococcus erythropolis)から単離された潜在性プラスミド(特開平4−330287号公報、特開平4−148685号公報、特開平9−28379号公報)を利用して構築されたベクターが好適に使用される<J. Gene.Microbiol. 138., 1003
(1992)、特開平5−64589号公報>。
【0021】
次に本発明は、「補酵素依存性酸化酵素を産生するロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌に、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子DNAが導入されたロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体」を提供するものである。該組換え体は、上記と同様の方法で作成することができる。
【0022】
すなわち、ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌が補酵素依存性酸化酵素を産生するので、酸化反応の結果、生成した還元型補酵素を酸化型補酵素に再生する系をロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌内に構築すれば効率的な生産が可能となる。
【0023】
補酵素依存性酸化酵素を産生するロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌としては
ロドコッカス属(Rhodococcus sp.) RHA1 (PCB酸化的分解菌)、ロドコッカス オパカス(Rhodococcus opacus) TSP203 (PCB酸化的分解菌)、ロドコッカス エリスロポリス(Rhodococcus erythropolis) KA2−5−1 (脱硫菌)が挙げられる。
【0024】
補酵素の再生は、例えばグルタミン酸脱水素酵素、NADHオキシダーゼ、NADH脱水素酵素、アルコール脱水素酵素、乳酸脱水素酵素等を使用して行い、これらの酵素はロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌内で産生させる必要があるため、それらの酵素をコードする遺伝子DNAをロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌内に導入し、形質導入体(形質転換体)を作製すればよい。
【0025】
さらには、補酵素再生系を構成する遺伝子及び補酵素依存性還元酵素又は該酸化酵素をコードする遺伝子の両方が導入されたロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体を作製することも可能である。その場合、該両遺伝子を含むプラスミドベクターを構築し、組換え体を作製することが好ましい。補酵素依存性還元又は酸化酵素は製造する目的物により適宜選択される。
【0026】
前記のごとく作成されたロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌組換え体は、微生物変換反応における微生物触媒として使用することができる。この際、ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属細菌は、細胞表層が強固な点で、繰り返しの使用や連続反応等で他の菌種に比べ優位である。また、産業的に有用な多種の酵素を産生することから非常に好ましい(特開平11−103878号、特開平8−98697号、特開平6−197791号、特開平6−178691号等公報参照)。
【0027】
微生物触媒の調製は、培養を含む工程により調製される。培養方法において、培地としては、通常これらの微生物が生育し得るものならばいずれも使用することができる。例えば、炭素源としてグルコース、フルクトース、シュークロース、マルトース等の糖類、酢酸、クエン酸などの有機酸類、エタノール、グリセロール等のアルコール類など、窒素源としてペプトン、肉エキス、酵母エキス、蛋白質加水分解物、アミノ酸等の一般天然窒素源の他に各種無機、有機酸アンモニウム塩等が使用でき、この他無機塩、微量金属類、ビタミン等が必要に応じて適宜使用される。培養条件は、通常、pH4〜10、温度10〜40℃の範囲にて好気的に10〜180時間培養する。培養は、液体培養、固体培養のいずれで行うこともできる。
【0028】
培養後、集菌操作を行い、必要に応じて洗浄を行うことにより微生物触媒を調製する。その使用形態は、集菌した菌体を適当な緩衝液に懸濁させた菌体懸濁液として、又はアクリルアミド、カラギーナン、アガロース等の適当な担体に固定化、またはイオン交換樹脂等に吸着させた固定化担体として使用することができる。それら使用形態は、反応条件等により適宜選択される。
【0029】
反応は、上記方法で調製した微生物触媒を、基質が溶解又は懸濁した媒体中に添加し、基質と接触することにより行う。媒体は基質の性質(例えば溶解性)及び触媒の安定性等を考慮して適宜選択される。反応終了後の生成物の採取は、定法に従い実施する。
【0030】

本発明を以下の実施例によって更に詳細に説明する。

(2)ギ酸脱水素酵素遺伝子の取得
マイコバクテリウム・バッカエ(Mycobacterium vaccae N10)由来のギ酸脱水素酵素遺伝子は既にクローニングされており、その全塩基配列が明らかとなっている(Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 44, 479−483 (1995))。
【0033】

これらのプライマーを用い、上記(1)で調製したマイコバクテリウム・バッカエN10株の染色体DNAを鋳型としてPCR( polymerase chain reaction )法によりギ酸脱水素酵素遺伝子のORF領域すべての増幅を行った。200μl容量のマイクロテストチューブに、以下の各試薬を記載の終濃度になるように加え、20mM トリス塩酸、1.5mM 塩化マグネシウム、25mM 塩化カリウム、0.05% ツイーン20( W/ V )、100mg/ml 牛胎児血清アルブミン、各50mM dATP・dGTP・dCTP・dTTP、これに染色体DNA:10ng、プライマーA及びB:各50pmol、2.5ユニットのTaq DNAポリメラーゼ(宝酒造社製)を添加し、総量を100μlとした。サーマルサイクラー(宝酒造社製)を用いて、DNA変性を94℃で1分、プライマーのアニーリング65℃で2分、プライマーの伸長反応72℃で2分を1サイクルとして、30サイクルの増幅を行い、1206bpのギ酸脱水素酵素遺伝子のORF 領域を含むDNA断片を得た。
【0035】
次にXbaI, Sse8387Iで制限酵素処理を行ったプラスミドpSJ034(図1)に、上記の方法で得られたギ酸脱水素酵素遺伝子を含むDNA断片をXbaI, Sse8387Iで制限酵素処理したものを混合し、これに6.6mM 塩化マグネシウム、10mM DTT及び66uM ATPを含むトリス緩衝液(pH7.6)を20ul加え、さらにT4 DNAリガーゼ(宝酒造社製)350 Uを加えて18℃で16時間反応させてDNA鎖の連結反応を行い、組み換えプラスミド(pRFD001)(図2)を作製した。なお、pSJ034はプラスミドpSJ023より特開平10−337185号明細書記載の方法により作製したものである。pSJ023は形質転換体 R.rhodochrous ATCC 12674/pSJ023 (FERM BP−6232) として、またpRFD001は (FERM P−19078) として産業総合技術研究所 特許生物寄託センターに寄託されている。

【0037】
(3)ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属組換え体の培養

【0038】
<実施例2> ロドコッカス(Rhodococcus)属組換え体を用いた光学活性1,2−プロピレングリコールの生産

【0039】
いずれの場合も効率よく1,2−プロピレングリコールを生成していた。ロドコッカス ロドクロウス ATCC12674/pRFD001については光学純度を調べたところ、99%e.e.以上の光学純度のR―1,2−プロピレングリコールが得られた。一方、ギ酸アンモニウム無添加の場合には生成物が得られなかった(表1参照)。

First, the present invention provides a "Rhodococcus bacterium recombinant obtained by introducing a gene DNA constituting a coenzyme regeneration system into a genus Rhodococcus bacterium that produces a coenzyme-dependent reductase". Things.
[0018]
In this case, since Rhodococcus bacteria produce a coenzyme-dependent reductase, efficient production can be achieved by constructing a system that regenerates the oxidized coenzyme generated as a result of the reduction reaction into a reduced coenzyme. It becomes possible. The Rhodococcus (Rhodococcus) bacteria that produce coenzyme-dependent reductase, Rhodococcus (Rhodococcus) bacteria, Rhodococcus rhodochrous (Rhodococcus rhodochrous) ATCC12674, Rhodococcus rhodochrous (Rhodococcus rhodochrous) ATCC19140, Rhodococcus rhodochrous (Rhodococcus rhodochrous) ATCC17895, Rhodococcus Erythropolis (Rhodococcus erythropolis) JCM3201, Rhodococcus sp.

Furthermore, it is also possible to produce a recombinant Rhodococcus bacterium into which both the gene constituting the coenzyme regeneration system and the gene encoding the coenzyme-dependent reductase or the oxidase have been introduced. In that case, it is preferable to construct a plasmid vector containing both genes to prepare a recombinant. The coenzyme-dependent reducing or oxidizing enzyme is appropriately selected depending on the target product to be produced.
[0026]
The recombinant Rhodococcus bacterium prepared as described above can be used as a microbial catalyst in a microbial conversion reaction.

In addition, inorganic salts, trace metals, vitamins and the like are appropriately used as needed. Culture conditions are usually aerobic at pH 4 to 10 and at a temperature of 10 to 40 ° C. for 10 to 180 hours. The culture can be performed by either liquid culture or solid culture.
[0028]
After the culture, a microbial catalyst is prepared by performing a cell collection operation and washing as needed. The use form is as a cell suspension in which the collected cells are suspended in a suitable buffer, or immobilized on a suitable carrier such as acrylamide, carrageenan, agarose, or adsorbed on an ion exchange resin or the like. It can also be used as an immobilized carrier. Their use forms are appropriately selected depending on reaction conditions and the like.
[0029]
The reaction is carried out by adding the microbial catalyst prepared by the above method to a medium in which the substrate is dissolved or suspended, and contacting the substrate with the substrate. The medium is appropriately selected in consideration of the properties of the substrate (eg, solubility) and the stability of the catalyst. The product after completion of the reaction is collected according to a standard method.

Next, 5 ml of a phenol solution was added, shaken, centrifuged, and the aqueous layer was separated. Then, twice the amount of ethanol was added, and the precipitated chromosomal DNA was wound around a glass rod and washed with ethanol. Then, it was dissolved in 1 ml of sterilized water to obtain a chromosomal DNA solution.
[0047]
(2) Acquisition of leucine dehydrogenase gene
A primer (oligonucleotide C: SEQ ID NO: 3) containing a Shine-Dalgarno sequence (SD sequence) upstream of the start codon ATG of the ORF (open reading frame) region (1166 bp) of the leucine dehydrogenase gene and having an SphI restriction site upstream thereof ) And a primer having a Sse8387I restriction site downstream thereof (oligonucleotide D: SEQ ID NO: 4) including a sequence containing a stop codon TAA, and a DNA / RNA synthesizer (model 394: PE Biosystems) (Made by the company).
[0048]
Figure 2004159587
Using these primers, the entire ORF region of the formate dehydrogenase gene was amplified by PCR (polymerase chain reaction) using the chromosomal DNA of Thermoactinomyces intermedius strain prepared in (1) above as a template.
[0049]
(3) Acquisition of formate dehydrogenase gene
PCR was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1 by using the primer A described in Example 1, a sequence containing the termination codon TGA, and a primer E (SEQ ID NO: 5) having a SphI restriction site downstream thereof. A DNA fragment containing the ORF region of the formate dehydrogenase gene was obtained.
[0050]
Figure 2004159587
Next, the plasmid pSJ034 (FIG. 1) treated with restriction enzymes XbaI and Sse8387I was treated with the DNA fragment containing the formate dehydrogenase gene obtained by the above method using restriction enzymes XbaI and SphI, and (2) The leucine dehydrogenase gene-containing DNA fragment obtained in step 1 was mixed with a restriction enzyme treated with SphI and Sse8387I, and the mixture was mixed with Tris buffer (pH 7.6) containing 6.6 mM magnesium chloride, 10 mM DTT and 66 uM ATP. Was added, and 350 U of T4 DNA ligase (Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd.) was further added. The mixture was allowed to react at 18 ° C. for 16 hours to perform a ligation reaction of DNA strands to prepare a recombinant plasmid (pRFD002) (FIG. 3). pRFD002 has been deposited with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology Patent Microorganisms Depositary Center as (FERM-19079).
[0051]
The plasmid obtained above was mixed with Rhodococcus rhodochrous ATCC12674 strain, allowed to stand on ice for 10 minutes, and then subjected to an electric pulse (2.25 kv, 200 OHMS) to give a formate dehydrogenase gene and a leucine dehydrogenase. A recombinant of the genus Rhodococcus into which a plasmid containing the gene was introduced was prepared.
[0052]
(4) Culture of a Rhodococcus genus recombinant
A recombinant of the genus Rhodococcus obtained above was transformed into a GGPK medium containing kanamycin [composition: glucose 15 g, yeast extract 1 g, sodium glutamate 10 g, KH2PO4 0.5 g, K2HPO4 0.5 g, Mg2SO4.7H2O 0.5 g. Was dissolved in distilled water to make 1 liter (pH 7.2)], and shaking culture was performed at 30 ° C. for 2 days. After the culture, the cells were collected and a cell suspension was prepared using an appropriate buffer or the like.
[0053]
(5) Production of L-leucine by a recombinant Rhodococcus bacterium containing a formate dehydrogenase gene and a leucine dehydrogenase
The bacterial cell suspension prepared in (4) was added to 10 ml of 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing 100 mM 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid and 166 mM ammonium formate, and reacted at 30 ° C. . After a reaction time of 8 hours, the reaction was stopped, and the cells were collected by centrifugation. The collected cells were suspended in a phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and washed by centrifugation again. To the collected cells, 100 mM 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid, 166 mM ammonium formate, and 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) were added to make 10 ml, and reacted at 30 ° C. again. This operation was repeated until the third reaction.
[0054]
Quantitative analysis was performed using high performance liquid chromatography using a Wakosil 5C8 column (Wako Pure Chemical Industries). Confirmation of optical isomers was performed by high performance liquid chromatography using an optical resolution column MCI GEL CRS 10W (Mitsubishi Chemical).
[0055]
As a result, sufficient production of L-leucine was confirmed without addition of NADH, and also in the third reaction in which the cells were reused. From the above, it was confirmed that in the bacteria of the genus Rhodococcus into which the formate dehydrogenase gene was introduced, the NADH regeneration reaction was efficiently performed.
[0056]
<Comparative Example 1> Production of L-leucine by a recombinant Escherichia coli containing a formate dehydrogenase gene and a leucine dehydrogenase
(1) Escherichia coli recombinant
JM109 (pFDH / LeuDH) was used as the recombinant E. coli. JM109 (pFDH / LeuDH) has been deposited at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology Patent Organism Depositary as the FERMP-15350.
[0057]
(2) Culture of recombinant Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli recombinant JM109 (pFDH / LeuDH) obtained above was added to an LB medium containing ampicillin and IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside) (composition: glucose 10 g, yeast extract 10 g, NaCl 5 g). Was dissolved in distilled water to make 1 liter (pH 7.0), and cultured at 30 ° C. with shaking. After the culture, the cells were collected and a cell suspension was prepared using an appropriate buffer or the like.
[0058]
(3) Production of L-leucine
The cell suspension prepared in (2) was added to 10 ml of a 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing 100 mM 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid and 166 mM ammonium formate, and reacted at 30 ° C. . The analysis was performed in the same manner as in Example 6. After a reaction time of 6 hours, the reaction was stopped, and the cells were collected by centrifugation. The collected cells were suspended in a phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and washed by centrifugation again. To the collected cells, 100 mM 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid, 166 mM ammonium formate, and 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) were added to make 10 ml, and reacted at 30 ° C. again.
[0059]
As a result, despite the fact that 80 mM L-leucine was produced in the first reaction for 6 hours, only a slight reaction occurred in the second reaction. When NADH was added to this reaction solution, L-leucine was produced at about the same level as in the first reaction. From this fact, in the recombinant Escherichia coli, the coenzyme NADH regeneration system functions, but it is not suitable for the repeated reaction or continuous reaction under the condition that NADH is not added because the NADH immediately flows out of the cells. Became clear.
[0060]
【The invention's effect】
By introducing a gene constituting a coenzyme regeneration system into a bacterium belonging to the genus Rhodococcus having a strong cell surface and producing a variety of industrially useful enzymes, a genus Rhodococcus having no leakage of a coenzyme can be obtained. Recombinants can be made. Further, the use thereof enables efficient production of an optically active substance.
