Simultaneous production of 2′‐fucosyllactose and difucosyllactose by engineered Escherichia coli with high secretion efficiency

Abstract: Background and aim Difucosyllactose (Di‐FL) has strong antimicrobial activity against various pathogens, including group B Streptococcus, identified as the leading cause of neonatal sepsis. In this study, we sought to develop Escherichia coli as a microbial cell factory for efficiently producing Di‐FL as well as 2′‐fucosyllactose (2′‐FL), the most abundant fucosylated oligosaccharide in human milk, by utilizing the salvage guanosine 5′‐diphosphate (GDP)‐l‐fucose biosynthetic pathway. Main methods and major res… Show more

“…Taking advantage of the extent of the FucT2 reaction, Lee et al engineered E. coli expressing FKP and FucT2 to produce 2′-FL and DFL simultaneously, resulting in the formation of 1.22 g/L DFL and 0.47 g/L 2′-FL . An alternative α1,2-fucosyltransferase derived from B.…”

“…However, FucT2 and WbgL have been reported to have an additional α1,3-fucosyltransferase activity that can produce DFL. , Lee et al constructed a metabolically engineered E. coli harboring FucT2, which simultaneously produced 2′-FL and DFL with titers of 1.22 and 0.47 g/L, respectively . This characteristic of these α1,2-fucosyltransferases introduces new problems to the downstream purification process .…”

“…H. pylori FucT2-based metabolically engineered Escherichia coli simultaneously produces 2′-fucosyllactose (2′-FL) and 2′,3-difucosyllactose (DFL) Photobacterium multocida SiaTs possess at least six different enzymatic functions, including donor hydrolysis, α2,3-SiaT, α2,6-SiaT, α2,3-sialidase, α2,3- trans -sialidase, and α2,6- trans -sialidase activities. ,, Therefore, when the biosynthesis routes of HMOs are designed, it is important for selection of the suitable GTs, which may be helpful for enhancing the synthetic efficiency and specificity.…”

“…Since in vitro multienzyme catalysis requires purified reagents and enzymes that increase production costs, production of 2'-FL using engineered microbes has been proven to be cost effective [ 5 , 6 ]. In engineered Escherichia coli [ 7 , 8 ] and Saccharomyces cerevisiae [ 9 , 10 ] capable of producing 2'-FL, lactose is fucosylated by a heterologous α-1,2-fucosyltransferase using guanosine 5'‐diphosphate (GDP)-L-fucose as a fucose donor. However, despite several attempts to construct high-performance strains, the 2'-FL titers are often reported to be low because of the insoluble and unstable nature of α-1,2-fucosyltransferase under process conditions [ 11 , 12 ].…”
