One stone two birds: Biosynthesis of 3-hydroxypropionic acid from CO(2) and syngas-derived acetic acid in Escherichia coli

Syngas, which contains large amount of CO(2) as well as H(2) and CO, can be convert to acetic acid chemically or biologically. Nowadays, acetic acid become a cost-effective nonfood-based carbon source for value-added biochemical production. In this study, acetic acid and CO(2) were used as substrate...

Sumario:Syngas, which contains large amount of CO(2) as well as H(2) and CO, can be convert to acetic acid chemically or biologically. Nowadays, acetic acid become a cost-effective nonfood-based carbon source for value-added biochemical production. In this study, acetic acid and CO(2) were used as substrates for the biosynthesis of 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) in metabolically engineered Escherichia coli carrying heterogeneous acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acc) from Corynebacterium glutamicum and codon-optimized malonyl-CoA reductase (MCR) from Chloroflexus aurantiacus. Strategies of metabolic engineering included promoting glyoxylate shunt pathway, inhibiting fatty acid synthesis, dynamic regulating of TCA cycle, and enhancing the assimilation of acetic acid. The engineered strain LNY07(M*DA) accumulated 15.8 g/L of 3-HP with the yield of 0.71 g/g in 48 h by whole-cell biocatalysis. Then, syngas-derived acetic acid was used as substrate instead of pure acetic acid. The concentration of 3-HP reached 11.2 g/L with the yield of 0.55 g/g in LNY07(M*DA). The results could potentially contribute to the future development of an industrial bioprocess of 3-HP production from syngas-derived acetic acid.
