Definitions
- a NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE OF A MUTANT ARGF WITH INCREASED ACTIVITY AND A METHOD FOR PRODUCING L-ARGININE USING A TRANSFORMED CELL CONTAINING
- the present invention relates to a nucleotide sequence of a mutant argF gene, which is involved in arginine biosynthesis. More particularly, the present invention relates to a nucleotide sequence of a mutant argF gene, which has a partial nucleotide sequence varied and thus results in an amino acid sequence varied from the wild type sequence, so as to increase ornithine carbamoyltransferase activity, a recombinant vector carrying the nucleotide sequence, and a cell transformed with the recombinant vector. Also, the present invention is concerned with a method of producing high levels of L-arginine by culturing the transformant.
- L-arginine a semi-essential amino acid that is naturally produced in the body, has been widely used in medicaments, food, animal feedstuffs, and other products.
- L- arginine is useful as a drug for improving hepatic function and brain function and treating male sterility and as an ingredient of multiple amino acid supplements.
- L-arginine has been used as a food additive in fish cakes and health beverages, and has recently gained interest as a salt substitute for hypertension patients.
- L-arginine can be produced using a mutant strain derived from a glutamate- producing microorganism belonging to the genus Brevibacterium or Corynebacterium (Japanese Pat. Laid-Open Publication Nos. Sho57-163487, Sho ⁇ O-83593 and Sho62-265988), or using an amino acid-producing microorganism having improved growth properties by cell fusion (Japanese Pat. Laid-Open Publication No. Sho59-158185).
- L-arginine In microorganisms, the biosynthesis of L-arginine proceeds in eight enzymatic steps starting from L-glutamate through two different pathways, the linear pathway or the cyclic pathway. In the linear pathway, L-arginine is synthesized from L-glutamate via N-acetylglutamate, N-acetylornithine, ornithine, citralline and argininosuccinate.
- These intermediates are synthesized through consecutive reactions catalyzed by the following enzymes, N-acetylglutamate synthase, N-acetylglutamate kinase, N- acetylglutamylphosphate reductase, acetylornithine aminotransferase, acetylornithine deacetylase, ornithine carbamoyltransferase, argininosuccinate synthase and argini- nosuccinase.
- These enzymes are encoded by argA, argB, argC, argD, argE, argF, argG and argH genes, respectively.
- L-arginine in higher yields intended to amplify the argF gene encoding ornithine carbamoyltransferase, which catalyzes the conversion of ornithine into citrulline in the arginine biosynthetic pathway, and then to achieve the improved productivity of L- arginine using a mutant argF gene, which allows enhancement of the gene-encoded enzyme activity compared to the wild type, thereby leading to the present invention.
- the expression of the argF gene is controlled by the repressor protein argR and intracellular arginine.
- the argR protein negatively regulates the expression of the argF gene (Dongbin Lim, Werner K. Mass, 1987, PNAS 84: 6697-6701).
- the activity of the argF protein has been reported to be suppressed by the presence of high concentrations of arginine (Raymon Cunin, Victor Stalon, 1986, Microbiological Reviews 50: 314-352).
- the inactivation of the argR gene increases the expression of the argF gene and enhances the production efficiency of arginine (U.S. Pat. Application No.
- the present inventors have constructed an expression vector that comprises the argF gene obtained from a mutant strain that produces arginine in high levels using a genetic engineering technique, and have introduced the expression vector into an arginine-producing strain, thereby developing a strain capable of producing high concentrations of L-arginine.
- the strain was substantially used in fermentation for arginine production, the yield of L-arginine remarkably increased.
- the present invention aims to provide a recombinant microorganism producing the amino acid L-arginine in higher yields and a preparation method thereof comprising preparing a modified argF gene or a DNA fragment thereof, constructing a vector capable of expressing the mutant argF gene in C. glutamicum, and introducing the vector into an L-arginine-producing strain.
- the present inventors have constructed an expression vector that comprises the argF gene obtained from a mutant strain that produces arginine at high levels using a genetic engineering technique, and have introduced the expression vector into an arginine- producing strain, thereby developing a strain capable of producing high concentrations of L-arginine.
- the strain was substantially used in fermentation for arginine production, the yield of L-arginine remarkably increased.
- the L-arginine-producing microorganism overexpressing the argF gene according to the present invention increases the yield of L-arginine.
- FIG. 1 shows a process for constructing a recombinant plasmid pECCGl 17-argF according to the present invention.
- the present invention is characterized by targeting the argF gene, encoding ornithine carbamoyltransferase, in order to improve the productivity of L-arginine.
- the present invention involves obtaining the argF gene from an L- arginine-producing microorganism, inserting the argF gene into a vector in order to construct an argF expression vector and introducing the expression vector into an L- arginine-producing strain using a genetic engineering technique, thereby increasing the productivity of L-arginine even in the presence of high concentrations of arginine during fermentation.
- This concept of the present invention is applicable to all microorganisms, including prokaryotes and eukaryotes, that are able to produce L-arginine.
- Representative microorganisms may include E. coli, coryneform bacteria, and Bacillus bacteria, which have been conventionally used to produce L-arginine.
- Preferred is a strain of Corynebacterium glutamicum, which is resistant to an L-arginine analogue and is capable of producing L-arginine.
- the expression of the argF gene, located on a chromosome of a microorganism producing L-arginine, may be achieved using a common genetic engineering technique.
- the nucleotide sequence of the gene may be analyzed using a fluorescent DNA sequencing method.
- the gene expression vector of the present invention is constructed according to the following procedure.
- the genomic DNA is isolated from a microbial strain capable of producing L-arginine.
- a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is performed using the isolated genomic DNA as a template in accordance with the standard protocols in order to amplify the ORF of the argF gene, the argC promoter region and the rrnB terminator region.
- the nucleotide sequence of the argF gene thus obtained is determined using a common DNA sequencing method.
- the amplified promoter, argF gene and terminator are sequentially cloned into a suitable plasmid or vector.
- the resulting recombinant vector or plasmid is transformed into a host cell, such as E.
- the transformant is cultivated to be propagated, and the recombinant vector, carrying, sequentially, the promoter, argF gene and terminator, is extracted from the culture.
- the extracted recombinant vector is introduced into a microbial strain capable of producing L-arginine using a common technique, such as electroporation.
- a strain harboring the recombinant vector is then selected using its antibiotic resistance.
- nucleotide sequence analysis and DNA fragment preparation of the present invention can be performed using standard DNA sequencing and cloning methods.
- PCR is preferably carried out using oligonucleotide primers targeting the argC promoter, argF gene and rrnB terminator according to the present invention.
- the PCR method is well known in the art (see, PCR Protocols: A Guide to Method and Application, Ed. M. Innis et al., Academic Press (1990)).
- the PCR is performed in a PCR mixture containing genomic DNA, an appropriate polymerase, primers and buffer conveniently using a PTC-200 Peltier Thermal Cycler (MJ Research, USA). Positive PCR results are determined, for example, by detecting a suitable size of a DNA fragment through electrophoresis on an agarose gel.
