synthesis | synthesis of cyanophycin using an anabolism-based media-dependent plasmid addiction system to enhance plasmid stability, and a process based on a modified mineral salts medium yielding a cyanophycin content of 42% w/w at the maximum without the addition of amino acids to the medium. This plasmid addiction system is based on different lysine biosynthesis pathways and consists of a knockout of the chromosomal dapE that disrupts the native succinylase pathway in Escherichia coli and the complementation by the plasmid-encoded artificial aminotransferase pathway mediated by the dapL gene from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6308, which allows the synthesis of the essential lysine precursor L,L-2,6-diaminopimelate. This plasmid also harbors an engineered cyanophycin synthetase gene responsible for cyanophycin production.Cultivation experiments reveal an at least 4.5fold enhanced production of cyanophycin in comparison to control cultivations | Synechocystis sp. |
