ABSTRACT
To develop a high-yield pyruvate strain, we first engineered a pyruvate-producing Escherichia coli KLPP from wild-type E. coli MG1655 by blocking the pathways for byproduct formation via gene knockout. Then, we built a library of mutant containing 7 197 monoclones by using the pUT Mini-Tn5 transposon vector for random mutagenesis with E. coli KLPP. We developed a high-throughput method for pyruvate detection based on dinitrophenylhydrazine reaction using 96-well microplate reader. After two-round screening we successfully obtained six mutants with increased pyruvate titer using this method, the titer of pyruvate was increased by 38%, 31%, 19%, 28%, 44% and 14%, respectively. The position of transposon insertion was determined by whole genome re-sequencing, and the gene locus possibly influencing pyruvate production was analyzed, which laid the foundation for subsequent strain improvement by metabolic engineering.
