To engineer Yarrowia lipolytica for improving the heterologous production of campesterol (a key precursor to manufacture pharmaceutical steroids).
By screening 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase (DHCR7) from diverse species, DHCR7 from Danio rerio was the best candidate for campesterol synthesis. Overexpression of ACL (ATP: citrate lyase) or POX2 (peroxisome acyl-CoA oxidase 2) were key to improving campesterol production. The highest yield of campesterol was 942 mg/l was with the strain overexpressing POX2 in a 5 l bioreactor via high cell density fermentation process with a restricted supply of carbon sourc, sunflower seed oil.
A promising platform to synthesize downstream steroid drugs was established. Efficient approaches were provided to improve the production of desired molecules in Y. lipolytica with high oil utilization efficiency.
对解脂耶氏酵母进行工程改造,以提高菜油甾醇(制造药用类固醇的关键前体)的异源产量。
通过筛选来自不同物种的7-脱氢胆固醇还原酶(DHCR7),斑马鱼的DHCR7是菜油甾醇合成的最佳候选酶。ACL(ATP:柠檬酸裂解酶)或POX2(过氧化物酶体酰基辅酶A氧化酶2)的过表达是提高菜油甾醇产量的关键。在5升生物反应器中,通过高细胞密度发酵工艺,以向日葵籽油作为受限碳源供应,过表达POX2的菌株获得的菜油甾醇最高产量为942毫克/升。
建立了一个有前景的合成下游甾体药物的平台。提供了有效的方法来提高解脂耶氏酵母中所需分子的产量,并具有高油脂利用效率。
