Proteomic analysis of the response of α-ketoglutarate-producer Yarrowia lipolytica WSH-Z06 to environmental pH stimuli.
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology 2016 October
During bioproduction of short-chain carboxylates, a shift in pH is a common strategy for enhancing the biosynthesis of target products. Based on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, comparative proteomics analysis of general and mitochondrial protein samples was used to investigate the cellular responses to environmental pH stimuli in the α-ketoglutarate overproducer Yarrowia lipolytica WSH-Z06. The lower environmental pH stimuli tensioned intracellular acidification and increased the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS). A total of 54 differentially expressed protein spots were detected, and 11 main cellular processes were identified to be involved in the cellular response to environmental pH stimuli. Slight decrease in cytoplasmic pH enhanced the cellular acidogenicity by elevating expression level of key enzymes in tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle). Enhanced energy biosynthesis, ROS elimination, and membrane potential homeostasis processes were also employed as cellular defense strategies to compete with environmental pH stimuli. Owing to its antioxidant role of α-ketoglutarate, metabolic flux shifted to α-ketoglutarate under lower pH by Y. lipolytica in response to acidic pH stimuli. The identified differentially expressed proteins provide clues for understanding the mechanisms of the cellular responses and for enhancing short-chain carboxylate production through metabolic engineering or process optimization strategies in combination with manipulation of environmental conditions.
