Here, we report the photosynthetic production of itaconic acid (IA), a promising building block, from carbon dioxide (CO₂) by Synechocystis sp. PCC6803. The engineered PCC6803 strain expressing cis-aconitate decarboxylase, the key enzyme in IA biosynthesis, produced 0.9 mg/L and 14.5 mg/L of IA at production rates of 42.8 μgL(-1)day(-1) and 919.0 μgL(-1)day(-1), under conditions of constant bubbling with air and 5% CO₂, respectively. This is the first report on the possibility of IA production from CO₂ via the photosynthetic process in cyanobacteria.
在此,我们报道了集胞藻PCC6803从二氧化碳(CO₂)光合生产衣康酸(IA)的过程,衣康酸是一种很有前景的基础原料。表达顺乌头酸脱羧酶(IA生物合成中的关键酶)的工程化PCC6803菌株,在分别以空气和5% CO₂持续鼓泡的条件下,IA的产量分别为0.9 mg/L和14.5 mg/L,生产速率分别为42.8 μg L⁻¹天⁻¹和919.0 μg L⁻¹天⁻¹。这是关于蓝细菌通过光合过程从CO₂生产IA可能性的首次报道。
