ABSTRACT Pyruvate carboxylase was recently sequenced in Corynebacterium glutamicum and shown to play an important role of anaplerosis in the central carbon metabolism and amino acid synthesis of these bacteria. In this study we investigate the effect of the overexpression of the gene for pyruvate carboxylase (pyc) on the physiology of C. glutamicum ATCC 21253 and ATCC 21799 grown on defined media with two different carbon sources, glucose and lactate. In general, the physiological effects of pyc overexpression in Corynebacteria depend on the genetic background of the particular strain studied and are determined to a large extent by the interplay between pyruvate carboxylase and aspartate kinase activities. If the pyruvate carboxylase activity is not properly matched by the aspartate kinase activity, pyc overexpression results in growth enhancement instead of greater lysine production, despite its central role in anaplerosis and aspartic acid biosynthesis. Aspartate kinase regulation by lysine and threonine, pyruvate carboxylase inhibition by aspartate (shown in this study using permeabilized cells), as well as well-established activation of pyruvate carboxylase by lactate and acetyl coenzyme A are the key factors in determining the effect of pyc overexpression on Corynebacteria physiology.

ABSTRACT The overexpression of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) in Corynebacterium glutamicum leads to significant improvement of lysine production on different sugars. Amplified expression of FBPase via the promoter of the gene encoding elongation factor TU (EFTU) increased the lysine yield in the feedback-deregulated lysine-producing strain C. glutamicum lysCfbr by 40% on glucose and 30% on fructose or sucrose. Additionally formation of the by-products glycerol and dihydroxyacetone was significantly reduced in the PEFTUfbp mutant. As revealed by 13C metabolic flux analysis on glucose the overexpression of FBPase causes a redirection of carbon flux from glycolysis toward the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) and thus leads to increased NADPH supply. Normalized to an uptake flux of glucose of 100%, the relative flux into the PPP was 56% for C. glutamicum lysCfbr PEFTUfbp and 46% for C. glutamicum lysCfb r . The flux for NADPH supply was 180% in the PEFTUfbp strain and only 146% in the parent strain. Amplification of FBPase increases the production of lysine via an increased supply of NADPH. Comparative studies with another mutant containing the sod promoter upstream of the fbp gene indicate that the expression level of FBPase relates to the extent of the metabolic effects. The overexpression of FBPase seems useful for starch- and molasses-based industrial lysine production with C. glutamicum. The redirection of flux toward the PPP should also be interesting for the production of other NADPH-demanding compounds as well as for products directly stemming from the PPP.

Thepsefdh_D221Q gene coding for a mutant formate dehydrogenase (PseFDG_D221Q) from Pseudomonas, which catalyzes the formate oxidation with the simultaneous formation of NADPH, has been expressed in the cells of lysine-producing Corynebacterium glutamicum strains. The psefdh_D221Q gene was introduced into С. glutamicum strains as part of an autonomous plasmid or was integrated into the chromosome with simultaneous inactivation of host formate dehydrogenase genes. It was shown that the С. glutamicum strains with NADP+ -dependent formate dehydrogenase have an increased level of L-lysine synthesis in the presence of formate, if their own formate dehydrogenase is inactivated.

ABSTRACT Metabolic fluxes in the central metabolism were determined for lysine-producing Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 21526 with sucrose as a carbon source, providing an insight into molasses-based industrial production processes with this organism. For this purpose, 13C metabolic flux analysis with parallel studies on [1-13CFru]sucrose, [1-13CGlc]sucrose, and [13C6 Fru]sucrose was carried out. C. glutamicum directed 27.4% of sucrose toward extracellular lysine. The strain exhibited a relatively high flux of 55.7% (normalized to an uptake flux of hexose units of 100%) through the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). The glucose monomer of sucrose was completely channeled into the PPP. After transient efflux, the fructose residue was mainly taken up by the fructose-specific phosphotransferase system (PTS) and entered glycolysis at the level of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase operated in the gluconeogenetic direction from fructose-6-phosphate to glucose-6-phosphate and supplied additional carbon (7.2%) from the fructose part of the substrate toward the PPP. This involved supply of fructose-6-phosphate from the fructose part of sucrose either by PTSMan or by fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. C. glutamicum further exhibited a high tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle flux of 78.2%. Isocitrate dehydrogenase therefore significantly contributed to the total NADPH supply of 190%. The demands for lysine (110%) and anabolism (32%) were lower than the supply, resulting in an apparent NADPH excess. The high TCA cycle flux and the significant secretion of dihydroxyacetone and glycerol display interesting targets to be approached by genetic engineers for optimization of the strain investigated.
