## Background
RELATED APPLICATION
This application claims the benefit of priority of application number 2018-087503 filed with the Japan Patent Office on Apr. 27, 2018. The contents of the priority application is incorporated herein by reference.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a method for producing sedoheptulose by a bacterium, a method for improving the productivity of sedoheptulose by the bacterium, and the bacterium for the methods.
BACKGROUND
Sedoheptulose, which is a saccharide falling within the categories of ketoses and heptuloses, is one of a small number of heptuloses occurring in nature. Sedoheptulose is a constituent sugar of D-sedoheptulose-7-phosphate in the pentose phosphate pathway, which is a metabolic system of a living organism. A method using a bacterium has been reported as a method for producing sedoheptulose. So far, it has been reported that Streptomyces naraensis (Patent literatures 1-2 and non-Patent literature 1), Streptomyces albus (non-Patent literature 1 and Patent literature 3), Streptomyces californicus (non-Patent literature 1 and Patent literature 3), Streptomyces sindensis (non-Patent literature 1), Streptomyces olivaceus (non-Patent literature 1), Streptomyces vividochromogenus (non-Patent literature 1), and Flavobacterium sp. TSC-A, Achromobacter sp. TSC-B (Patent literature 4) can produce sedoheptulose as the bacterium. In the above-mentioned literatures, bacteria that produce sedoheptulose in the natural world have been reported, but no method for improving the productivity of sedoheptulose in these bacteria is known. It is known that an addition of ribose to Bacillus subtilis mutated in transketolase improves the productivity of sedoheptulose (maximum production is 25 g/L, production is 5 g/L when ribose is absent) (Patent literature 5). As a method for producing sedoheptulose other than using a bacterium, methods using transketolase (Non-patent literatures 2 and 3) and a method by chemical synthesis (Patent literature 6) have been reported.

In one embodiment, the bacterium of the present disclosure is a bacterium in which a function of transaldolase is deleted or attenuated. In another embodiment, the bacterium of the present disclosure is a bacterium in which a function of propionyl CoA carboxylase is deleted or attenuated. In yet another embodiment, the bacterium of the present disclosure is a bacterium in which a function of trehalose synthase is deleted or attenuated. In another embodiment, the bacterium of the present disclosure is a bacterium in which at least one or more of the above functions are deleted or attenuated, such as a bacterium in which the functions of transaldolase and propionyl CoA carboxylase are deleted or attenuated, a bacterium in which the functions transaldolase and trehalose synthase are deleted or attenuated, or a bacterium in which the functions transaldolase, propionyl CoA carboxylase and trehalose synthase are deleted or attenuated.
In one embodiment, a function of an enzyme may be controlled by a DNA sequence encoding the protein, may be controlled at a transcriptional stage of the protein, may be controlled at a translational stage of the protein, or may be controlled at a post-translational stage of the protein. Preferably, a function of an enzyme is controlled by the DNA sequence encoding the protein.
In one embodiment, a function of an enzyme may be controlled by a DNA sequence encoding the protein, for example, the function may be deleted or attenuated by a mutation in the DNA sequence encoding the protein.
In one embodiment, a function of an enzyme may be controlled at a transcriptional stage of the protein, for example, the function may be deleted or attenuated by modifying a function of a cis or trans element of the DNA sequence encoding the protein.
In one embodiment, a function of an enzyme may be controlled at a translational stage of the protein, for example, the function may be deleted or attenuated by a mutation of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence for translation of the protein.
In one embodiment, a function of an enzyme may be controlled at a post-translational stage of the protein, for example, the function may be deleted or attenuated by treating the protein with an inhibitor.
In the present disclosure, a mutation includes a substitution, an addition, a deletion or a recombination.
Those skilled in the art may, for example, confirm a mutation of a gene encoding a protein, confirm a transcription of the protein, or confirm an activity the protein or an amount of the protein according to known techniques, to confirm whether the enzyme function is deleted or attenuated.
A function of an enzyme may be deleted or attenuated under a condition where a bacterium is used for a production of sedoheptulose. A deletion of an enzyme function refers to a state in which the function of the enzyme of a bacterium used in the present invention cannot be confirmed by those skilled in the art based on known techniques. Attenuation of an enzyme function refers to a state in which the function of the enzyme of a bacterium used in the present invention is attenuated as compared with normal state. More specifically, for example, attenuation of an enzyme function is a state in which the function is 90%, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20%, 10%, 5%, 2.5% or less than 1% as compared to the function when culturing a wild type bacteria under a normal culture condition. For example, in the case of attenuation due to an introduction of a mutation, comparison may be made under the same culture condition as in the wild type, and in the case of attenuation due to an inhibitor, comparison may be made under the same conditions except for presence or absence of the inhibitor.
Examples of a bacterium in the present disclosure include, but not limited to, actinomycete, Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, a bacterium belonging to Flavobacterium, and a bacterium belonging to Achromobacter. In a preferred embodiment, the bacterium is actinomycete, Bacillus subtilis, a bacterium belonging to Flavobacterium, or a bacterium belonging to Achromobacter. In a more preferred embodiment, the bacterium is actinomycete.
In the present disclosure, “actinomycete” refers to a Gram-positive bacterium belonging to the phylum actinomycete (Actinobacteria). “Actinomycete” includes, but not limited to, for example, Streptomyces genus such as Streptomyces lividans, Streptomyces violaceoruber, Streptomyces coelicolor, Streptomyces avermitilis, and Streptomyces griseus; Actinosynnema genus such as Actinosynnema pretiosum, and Actinosynnema mirum; Pseudonocardia genus such as Pseudonocardia autotrophica, Pseudonocardia thermophila; and Corynebacterium genus such as Corynebacterium glutamicum. In a preferred embodiment, the actinomycete is a bacterium belonging to Streptomyces or Corynebacterium genus, more preferably a bacterium belonging to Streptomyces genus, and even more preferably, the bacterium belonging to Streptomyces genus is Streptomyces lividans or Streptomyces avermitilis. The route for obtaining actinomycete is not particularly limited, and for example, it may be isolated from the soil, or may be obtained from a microorganism depository institution.
In the present disclosure, a bacterium used in a production of sedoheptulose is a bacterium that may biosynthesize sedoheptulose. For example, the bacterium used in a production of sedoheptulose is a bacterium having a sedoheptulose biosynthetic enzyme gene. The bacterium used for the production of sedoheptulose may be a wild type strain or a strain that have been artificially mutated. Examples of an artificial mutagenesis include a gene recombination, UV irradiation, X-ray irradiation, and a treatment with a mutagen. The bacterium used for the production of sedoheptulose may be a naturally occurring mutant strain. The bacterium used for the production of sedoheptulose also includes a bacterium having a homologous or heterologous sedoheptulose biosynthetic enzyme gene. For example, the bacterium used for the production of sedoheptulose may be a bacterium in which a heterologous sedoheptulose biosynthetic enzyme gene has been introduced by gene recombination. A method widely known in the art may be used to introduce the heterologous gene into the above-mentioned bacterium.
In the present disclosure, sedoheptulose may be produced intracellularly or extracellularly, preferably extracellularly. In the present disclosure, “bacterial cells” refers to bacterial cells. In addition, in the present disclosure, the “extracellular culture solution” refers to a portion of the culture solution obtained by culturing the bacterium and excluding the bacterial cells from the solution. That is, the extracellular culture solution comprises, for example, various components contained in the medium used for culture, and substances produced by a bacterium during culture.
In the present disclosure, a method for separating the bacterial cells and the extracellular culture solution is appropriately selected by those skilled in the art. For example, the culture solution obtained by culturing the bacterium may be subjected to centrifugation to separate the bacterial cells and the extracellular culture solution. As the centrifugation conditions such as temperature, time and speed, a well-known condition to a skilled person in the art may be used depending on the type of the bacterium used for culture. Alternatively, the bacterial cells and the extracellular culture solution may be separated by filtering the culture solution obtained by culturing the bacterium using an appropriate filtration membrane.
In the present disclosure, the separated extracellular culture solution itself may be used, or may be dried to be used as a composition containing sedoheptulose, or the produced sedoheptulose may be recovered from the extracellular culture solution. The term “recovery” means to obtain a solution mainly containing sedoheptulose, excluding various components and/or a bacterial cell contained in the medium used for culture. The proportion of sedoheptulose in the solution mainly containing sedoheptulose may be appropriately determined by those skilled in the art according to the purpose. A produced sedoheptulose may also be recovered as sedoheptulosan by acid treatment (Patent literature 5).
The produced sedoheptulose may be appropriately converted in or out of the cells to achieve a purpose by a technique known to those skilled in the art. Sedoheptulose may be converted chemically, enzymatically, or physicochemically, including phosphorylation, isomerization, cyclization, polymerization, acylation, galloylation, and dehydration cyclization. Converted sedoheptulose is for example sedoheptulose-7-phosphate, 7-O-galloyl-D-sedoheptulose and sedoheptulosan.
In one embodiment, a specific example of the production amount of sedoheptulose is, for example, preferably 3 g/L or more, more preferably 5 g/L or more in 7 days, or preferably 5 g/L or more, more preferably 10 g/L or more in 9 days. In still another specific example, the maximum sedoheptulose production amount during culture is preferably 5 g/L or more, more preferably 10 g/L or more, still more preferably 25 g/L or more.
According to the present disclosure, productivity of sedoheptulose by a bacterium may be improved. An improvement of productivity of sedoheptulose due to a deletion or attenuation of specific enzyme function means increase of productivity of sedoheptulose by the deletion or attenuation of specific enzyme function, or decrease of time until reaching specific productivity of sedoheptulose by the deletion or attenuation of specific enzyme function. More specifically, for example, 2 times or more, preferably 3 times or more, and more preferably 4 times or more of sedoheptulose is produced as compared with the case of culturing a wild type bacterium under normal culture conditions for 10 days of culture. In addition, when a wild type bacterium does not produce sedoheptulose under normal culture conditions, it may be allowed to produce sedoheptulose by a deletion or attenuation of the function of a specific enzyme.
In the production of sedoheptulose using a bacterium, those skilled in the art may appropriately change the culture conditions of the bacterium. A Culture condition of the bacterium may be changed by, for example, temperature, a carbon source, a nitrogen source, culture time, medium, oxygen content, pH, or an additive such as an antibiotic, for example, tetracycline (Non-patent literature 5).
In another embodiment, the present invention provides the above-described method of the present invention, further comprising the step of adding a carbon source to the medium. The further addition may be carried out at any time during culture of the bacterium, and it may be carried out continuously or intermittently. Desirably, the carbon source is further added so that the bacterium will not lyse. The lysis of a bacterium may be confirmed, for example, by measuring the pH of the culture solution. For actinomycete, desirably, the carbon source is further added so that the pH of the medium does not exceed 8.0. The lysis of a bacterium may also be confirmed by a decrease in the amount of the bacterium in the medium.
A Carbon source used in the present invention include, but not limited to, glucose, sucrose, fructose, mannitol, sorbitol, galactose, maltose, xylose, glycerol, ribose, gluconolactone or gluconic acid or salts thereof. In a preferred embodiment, the carbon source is glucose or glycerol. In another preferred embodiment, the carbon source does not contain ribose.
When the carbon source in the medium is consumed, various organic acids are produced as metabolites and the medium is acidified. The production of sedoheptulose by a bacterium is reduced due to acidification of the medium. Therefore, an alkalizing agent may be added to the medium so that the medium is not acidified. In case that actinomycete is used, an alkalizing agent is added to the medium so that the pH of the medium is not lowered below 5.0, preferably 5.5. The alkalizing agent includes, but not limited to, a carbonate such as calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, sodium carbonate, and sodium hydrogen carbonate, a hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, ammonia, urea, and Calcium oxide. In a preferred embodiment, the alkalizing agent used in the present invention is a carbonate such as calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, sodium carbonate and sodium hydrogen carbonate. The alkalizing agent may be added to the medium before culture or may be added during culture. Further, the addition of the alkalizing agent may be continuous or intermittent addition. The amount of alkalizing agent to be added may be determined by measuring the pH of the medium, without difficulty. A pH may be measured by a known method, for example, using a pH meter.
Therefore, it may be effective for increasing the production of sedoheptulose to add a carbon source which is a raw material of sedoheptulose to the medium that may prevent a pH increase of the medium and to add an alkalizing agent to prevent a pH decrease of the medium.
In the present invention, the medium for culturing the bacterium and other culture conditions (for example temperature, time, pH, presence or absence of stirring) are appropriately selected by those skilled in the art according to the type of the bacterium to be cultured. Examples of more specific conditions include, but not limited to, pH 5 to 8, temperature 10 to 45° C., time 5 to 50 days.
The invention further provides the following aspects:
(1) a method for improving productivity of sedoheptulose, comprising culturing a bacterium in which a function of transaldolase is deleted or attenuated;
(2) the method according to (1), where the bacterium is a bacterium in which a function of propionyl CoA carboxylase and/or a function of trehalose synthase is/are further deleted or attenuated;
(3) the method according to (1) or (2), where the bacterium is actinomycete, Bacillus subtilis, a bacterium belonging to Flavobacterium, or a bacterium belonging to Achromobacter; 
(4) the method according to (3), where the bacterium is actinomycete;
(5) the method according to (4), where the actinomycete is a bacterium belonging to Streptomyces; or
(6) the method according to (5), where the bacterium belonging to Streptomyces is Streptomyces lividans or Streptomyces avermitilis.

1-5. Result

The results for the Streptomyces lividans strain 1326 are shown in FIG. 1, and the results for the Streptomyces avermitilis strain MA-4680 are shown in FIG. 2. For the Streptomyces lividans strain 1326, a production of sedoheptulose could not be confirmed after 2 weeks of culture. The Streptomyces lividans strain 1326ΔSLI_2249 produced up to 5.7 g/L of sedoheptulose in about 9 days of culture. The Streptomyces lividans strain 1326ΔSLI_2249 ΔSLI_5198 produced 28.8 g/L of sedoheptulose in about 2 weeks of culture. The Streptomyces lividans strain 1326ΔSLI_2249 ΔSLI_7555 produced 13.0 g/L of sedoheptulose in about 11 days of culture. The Streptomyces avermitilis strain MA-4680 produced 0.9 g/L of sedoheptulose after 2 weeks of culture. The Streptomyces avermitilis strain MA-4680Δsav6314 produced 9.5 g/L sedoheptulose in 2 weeks of culture. In Streptomyces lividans and Streptomyces avermitilis, a disruption of the transaldolase gene significantly increased productivity of sedoheptulose. Furthermore, a combination of a disruption of the trehalose synthase gene or the propionyl CoA carboxylase gene with a disruption of the transaldolase gene disruption, productivity of sedoheptulose was significantly improved. FIG. 3 shows changes in productivity of sedoheptulose after the Streptomyces lividans strain 1326ΔSLI_2249ΔSLI_5198 was cultured for a long period of time and the supplemental addition of glucose was stopped. Although the production of sedoheptulose was increased over time and sedoheptulose was produced at a maximum of 53.3 g/L in 431 hours during the supplemental addition of glucose, when the supplementation of glucose was stopped and glucose became depleted, it is observed that the productivity of sedoheptulose was decreased.
