    Author: Yan X, Zhu L, Yu Y, Xu Q, Huang H, Jiang L.
    Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2018 Feb 14; 66(6):1444-1451. PubMed ID: 29338242.
    Abstract:
    We developed an in-situ biocatalytic process that couples autoinduction expression of trehalose synthase (TreS) and whole-cell catalysis for trehalose production. With lactose as the autoinducer, the activity of recombinant TreS in recombinant Escherichia coli was optimized through a visualization method, which resulted in a maximum value of 12 033 ± 730 U/mL in pH-stat fed-batch fermentation mode. Meanwhile, the permeability of the autoinduced E. coli increased significantly, which makes it possible to be directly used as a whole-cell biocatalyst for trehalose production, whereby the byproduct glucose can also act as an extra carbon source. In this case, the final yield of trehalose was improved to 90.5 ± 5.7% and remained as high as 83.2 ± 5.0% at the 10th batch, which is the highest value achieved using recombinant TreS. Finally, an integrated strategy for trehalose production was established, and its advantages compared to the traditional mode have been summarized.
