Doroshenko, VG, Shakulov, RS, Kazakova, SM, Kivero, AD, Yampolskaya, TA and Mashko, SV (2010) Construction of an L-phenylalanine-producing tyrosine-prototrophic Escherichia coli strain using tyrA ssrA-like tagged alleles. Biotechnol. Lett. 32:1117-21

Abstract

To construct a Phe-producing Tyr(+) Escherichia coli strain, TyrA (chorismate mutase/prephenate dehydrogenase) activity was varied by engineering a proteolytically unstable protein. The tyrA in the E. coli BW25113 was altered to include ssrA-like tags. The tagged tyrA genes, which ensured different growth rates in M9 medium, were introduced into a Phe-producing strain to replace DeltatyrA. Strains with unstable TyrA-(A)ANDENYALAA proteins had a lower biomass yield and a higher Phe accumulation than strains generating the more stable TyrA-(A)ANDENYALDD. The Tyr/Phe ratio produced by the TyrA-tag strains was 10-fold less than that produced by the TyrA(wt) strain.
