additional information production of mesaconate in Escherichia coli by engineered glutamate mutase pathway, establishment of mesaconate pathway in Escherichia coli. First, glutamate is synthesized from glucose via glycolysis and TCA cycle.Then glutamate is converted into 3-methylaspartate by glutamate mutase. Finally, mesaconate is formed by elimination of ammonia from 3-methylaspartate via MAL. Since Escherichia coli does not contain glutamate mutase and 3-methylaspartate ammonia lyase, the two enzymes from Clostridium tetanomorphum are heterologously expressed. To increase the flux from glutamate to mesaconate, two effective strategies are employed to optimize the critical enzyme activity in the pathway: one is regenerating inactive mutase. The other is enhancing the availability of glutamate mutase (stability) and coenzyme B12 (regeneration). For the highest mesaconate production strain EM9, the consumed glutamate is 6.91 g/l (40.9 mM) and mesaconate titer is 7.81 g/l (60 mM). The GlmE from Clostridium cochlearium shows best performance in mesaconate titer because GlmE is more stable than MutE Clostridium tetanomorphum

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information identification of the reactivating factor of glutamate mutase, MutL. MutL regenerates glutamate mutase and releases inactive coenzyme from the inactive glutamate mutase-adenosylcobalamine complex. Reactivation of the spontaneous inactive mutase (mutase-X-Cbl) and inactive form B12 binding with mutase (mutase-CNCbl) in presence of ATP and coenzyme B12 by MutL Clostridium tetanomorphum
