Abstract

One of the fermentative metabolism of enteric Escherichia coli was imitated after rumen bacteria, which have high C4 metabolism. E. coli expresses phosphenolpyruvate carboxylase (PPC) for the pathway between phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and oxaloacetate (OAA) during glycolytic condition while expresses phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) during gluconeogenic condition. In contrast to enteric E. coli, rumen bacteria express the PEP-OAA pathway only by PCK. To verify the effect of the regulation imitation on the C4 metabolism of E. coli, PPC-deficient E. coli strain with PCK expression in glycolytic condition was constructed. The PEP-OAA regulation modified E. coli strain increased 2.5-folds higher C4 metabolite than the wild type strain. The potential use of C4 metabolism by regulation control is discussed.

높은 C4 대사활성을 보이는 반추위미생물이 가지는 포도당 발효대사 조절양식의 한가지를 대장균에서 모사하였다. 대장균은 glycolytic condition에서는 phosphoenolpyruvate(PEP) ${\leftrightarrow}$ oxaloacetate(OAA)간 반응을 phosphenolpyruvate carboxylase(PPC)에 의해, gluconeogenetic condition에서는 phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase(PCK)에 의해 촉매하도록 조절한다. 반면 반추위미생물은 glycolytic condition에서 PCK를 통하여 반응이 촉매된다. 이러한 조절양식의 차이점이 C4 대사활성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하며 ppc가 돌연변이되고 대신 인위적으로 PCK를 발현할 수 있는 대장균을 제조하였다. 이렇게 PEP-OAA간 대사조절이 변이된 대장균 K12 ppc-/pck+는 야생형 K12보다 2.5배의 높은 C4대사활성을 보였다. 대장균에서의 C4 대사생리를 증가시키는 연구는 대사공학을 이용한 여러가지 유용물질(i.e. 숙신산, ALA)생산에 응용하기 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
