Beschreibung
L-lysine is an essential amino acid which is mainly applied as supplement in animal feed. With a worldmarket of around 1,000,000 t/a it is one of the most important fermentation products. The gram positive soilbacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum thereby serves as major production organism. The aim of thepresent work was rational strain engineering of lysine production by C. glutamicum using a systems-orientedapproach. Detailed studies on this organism exposed lysine biosynthesis, NADPH metabolism, TCA cycleand precursor supply as key pathways. The central role for strain characterization can here be assigned to13C metabolic flux analysis, which was also applied in this work to obtain a detailed insight into the cellularphysiology. Based on an existing model, the network for flux determination was extended in the presentstudy to increase the number of estimable flux parameters.With regard to strain optimization, targeted modulation of enzyme activities within the cell is crucial toincrease or reduce carbon conversion of the selected pathways. The common toolbox such as overexpression by promoter exchange or gene deletion was complemented with the method of start codonexchange allowing permanent modulation of enzyme activity. As host-strains for target evaluation,genetically defined, wild type based lysine producers were used which all express a feedback-deregulatedvariant of aspartate kinase. The most beneficial modifications identified in this work comprised overexpression of diaminopimelate dehydrogenase, down-regulation of TCA cycle by attenuation of isocitratedehydrogenase and engineering of the NADPH metabolism. By subsequent implementation of beneficialtargets in a single strain, a rationally designed lysine hyper-producer was created. This exhibited remarkableproduction properties such as a lysine-HCl titre of 120 g L-1 and a carbon conversion yield of up to 55 %.
