Abstract Background: Ralstonia eutropha (syn. Cupriavidus necator) is a model microorganism for studying metabolism of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and a potential chassis for protein expression due to various advantages. Although current plasmid systems of R. eutropha provide a basic platform for gene expression, the performance of the expression-inducing systems is still limited. In addition, the sizes of the cloned genes are limited due to the large sizes of the plasmid backbones.Results: In this study, an R. eutropha T7 expression system was established by integrating a T7 RNA polymerase gene driven by the PBAD promoter into the genome of R. eutropha, as well as adding a T7 promoter into a pBBR1-derived plasmid for gene expression. In addition, the essential DNA sequence necessary for pBBR1 plasmid replication was identified, and the redundant parts were deleted reducing the expression plasmid size to 3392 bp, which improved the electroporation efficiency about 4 times. As a result, the highest expression level of RFP was enhanced, and the L-arabinose concentration for expression induction was decreased 20 times. Conclusions: The R. eutropha T7 expression system provides an efficient platform for protein production and synthetic biology applications.

In addition, the essential sequence necessary for pBBR1 plasmid replication was identified, and the redundant parts were deleted, reducing the expression plasmid size to 3392 bp, and the electroporation efficiency was improved 4 times. As a result, the highest expression level of Rfp was enhanced slightly, and the L-arabinose concentration necessary for induction was decreased 20 times. Conclusions: R. eutropha with the T7 expression system provides an efficient platform for protein expression and synthetic biology applications.

ABSTRACT A new Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain has been constructed to facilitate tightly regulated gene expression. Arabinose-inducible and glucose-repressible expression of a T7 RNA polymerase gene that has been integrated with an adjacent araC-PBAD control element into the bacterial chromosome allows dynamic control of T7 promoter-driven RNA transcription.

Abstract T7 Expression System is a common method of ensuring tight control and high-level induced expression. However, this system can only work in some bacterial strains in which the T7 RNA Polymerase gene resides in the chromosome. In this study, we successfully introduced a chromosomal copy of the T7 RNA Polymerase gene under control of the lacUV5 promoter into Escherichia coli BW25113. The T7 Expression System worked efficiently in this mutant strain named BW25113-T7. We demonstrated that this mutant strain could satisfactorily produce 5-Aminolevulinic Acid via C5 pathway. A final study was designed to enhance the controllability of T7 Expression System in this mutant strain by constructing a T7 Promoter Variants Library. These efforts advanced E. coli BW25113-T7 to be a practical host for future metabolic engineering efforts.

The limited amount of fusion protein transported into cytosol milieu has made it challenging to obtain a sufficient amount for further applications. To avoid the laborious and expensive task, T7 promoter-driving pET-30a(+) coding for chimeric gene of thymidine phosphorylase and core streptavidin as a model system was constructed and transformed into a variety of E. coli strains with T7 expression system. Our results demonstrated that the pET-30a(+)-TP-coreSA/Lemo21(DE3) system is able to provide efficient expression of soluble TP-coreSA fusion protein for purification. Moreover, the eluted TP-coreSA fusion protein tethered on biotinylated A549 carcinoma cells could effectively eliminate these malignant cells after administrating prodrug 5′-DFUR.
