ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Oritavancin is a new generation of semi-synthetic glycopeptide antibiotics against Gram-positive bacteria, which served as the first and only antibiotic with a single-dose therapeutic regimen to treat ABSSSI. A naturally occurring glycopeptide A82846B is the direct precursor of oritavancin. However, its application has been hampered by low yields and homologous impurities. This study established a multi-step combinatorial strategy to rationally construct a high-quality and high-efficiency biosynthesis system for A82846B and systematically optimize its fermentation process to break through the bottleneck of microbial fermentation production.RESULTS:
Firstly, based on the genome sequencing and analysis, we deleted putative competitive pathways and constructed a better A82846B-producing strain with a cleaner metabolic background, increasing A82846B production from 92 to 174 mg/L. Subsequently, the PhiC31 integrase system was introduced based on the CRISPR-Cas12a system. Then, the fermentation level of A82846B was improved to 226 mg/L by over-expressing the pathway-specific regulator StrR via the constructed PhiC31 system. Furthermore, overexpressing glycosyl-synthesis gene evaE enhanced the production to 332 mg/L due to the great conversion of the intermediate to target product. Finally, the scale-up production of A82846B reached 725 mg/L in a 15 L fermenter under fermentation optimization, which is the highest reported yield of A82846B without the generation of homologous impurities.CONCLUSION:
Under approaches including blocking competitive pathways, inserting site-specific recombination system, overexpressing regulator, overexpressing glycosyl-synthesis gene and optimizing fermentation process, a multi-step combinatorial strategy for the high-level production of A82846B was developed, constructing a high-producing strain AO-6. The combinatorial strategies employed here can be widely applied to improve the fermentation level of other microbial secondary metabolites, providing a reference for constructing an efficient microbial cell factory for high-value natural products.Palavras-chave
