Dynamic flux balance analysis for microbial conversion of glycerol into 1,3-propanediol by Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering 2018 September 2
To investigate the relationship between the yield of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) and the flux variation in metabolic pathways of Klebsiella pneumoniae, an optimized calculation method was constructed on basis of dynamic flux balance analysis by combining genome-scale flux balance analysis with a kinetic model of extracellular metabolites. Through optimizing calculations, a more completely expanded metabolic pathway was obtained, which includes the previously reported metabolic pathway and additional three pathways or site: a pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) elicited at the dihydroxyacetone (DHA) node to provide more reducing equivalents; a branch of synthetic amino acids at the 3-phosphoglycerate (3PG) node; and the α-ketoglutarate site in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle leading to anabolic pathways for glutamate and other amino acids. On this basis, the relationships between the dynamic flux distribution of the important nodes in the metabolic pathway and the yield of 1,3-propanediol were analyzed. First, dynamic flux change from DHA to the PPP is positively correlated with the yield. Second, variation in flux in the TCA cycle is also positively correlated with the yield of 1,3-propanediol. In addition, the influence of the feedback loop formed by the cofactor tetrahydrofolate on the flux change of TCA in the amino acid anabolic pathway was examined. These results are of important reference value and have guiding significance for the extension of the glycerol metabolism pathway in K. pneumoniae, the rational transformation of genetic engineering in bacteria, and the optimization of metabolic pathways for industrial production.
