Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the fermentative production of the R- ⁇ -lipoic acid and cells particularly suitable for the method.
- R- ⁇ -lipoic acid is an essential cofactor of certain multienzyme complexes in a large number of pro and eukaryotes.
- the R- ⁇ -lipoic acid with its carboxyl group is covalently bound to the ⁇ -amino group of a specific lysine residue of the corresponding enzyme to form a so-called lipoa id.
- R- ⁇ -lipoic acid is part of the E2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) [EC 2.3.1.12] or ⁇ -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KGDH) [EC 2.3.1.61] and plays there as Redox partners and acyl group carriers play a crucial role in the oxidative decarboxylation of ⁇ -keto acids.
- PDH pyruvate dehydrogenase
- KGDH ⁇ -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase
- R- ⁇ -lipoic acid also acts as an aminomethyl carrier in glycine-cleavage enzyme systems.
- ⁇ -Lipoic acid is an optically active molecule with a chiral center at the carbon atom C ⁇ .
- the R configuration of ⁇ -lipoic acid is the naturally occurring enantiomer. Only this form shows physiological activity as a cofactor of the corresponding enzymes.
- ⁇ -Lipoic acid can occur both in an oxidized (5- [1, 2] -dithiolan-3-yl-pentanoic acid) and in a reduced form (6, 8-dimercapto-octanoic acid).
- ⁇ -lipoic acid such as. B. to understand the calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium or ammonium salt.
- octanoic acid which is covalently bound to the acyl carrier protein (ACP) serves as a specific precursor in lipoic acid synthesis.
- ACP acyl carrier protein
- two sulfur atoms are activated on the octanoic acid (octanoyl- ACP) transfer, whereby R- ⁇ -Lipoyl-ACP arises.
- This reaction is catalyzed by the lipoic acid synthase [EC 2.8.1.-], the lip ⁇ gene product.
- the amino acid L-cysteine ultimately serves as the sulfur donor.
- the subsequent transfer of the R- ⁇ -lipoic acid from R- ⁇ -lipoyl-ACP to the E2 subunit of the ⁇ -keto acid dehydrogenases is carried out by the lipoyl protein ligase B [EC 6.-.-.-], the lipS Gene product, catalyzed, but without R- ⁇ -lipoyl-ACP or R- ⁇ -lipoic acid occurring as free intermediates (Miller et al., 2000, Biochemistry 39: 15166-15178).
- E. coli can also take up free R- ⁇ -lipoic acid from the surrounding medium and use it for the formation of functional ⁇ -keto acid dehydrogenases.
- R- ⁇ -lipoic acid is first activated by ATP to R- ⁇ -lipoyl-AMP and then transferred to the corresponding enzyme subunits (see FIG. 2). Both activities are catalyzed by Lipoyl protein ligase A [EC 6.-.-.-], the IpI ⁇ gene product (Morris et al., 1994, J. Biol. Chem. 269: 16091-16100).
- this LplA activity is not essential for wild-type strains of E.
- ⁇ -lipoic acid Due to its two thiol groups, ⁇ -lipoic acid has a pronounced effectiveness as an antioxidant and can therefore protect the organism from harmful processes that are induced by oxidative stress.
- ⁇ -dihydro-lipoic acid the reduced form of ⁇ -lipoic acid, due to its property as a strong reducing agent, is able to regenerate other oxidized natural antioxidants in the body, such as ascorbic acid or ⁇ -tocopherol, directly or indirectly, or if they are deficient, too replace.
- ⁇ -lipoic acid is of central importance in interaction with ascorbic acid, ⁇ -tocopherol and glutathione, the so-called “network of antioxidants”.
- ⁇ -Lipoic acid is also used for the prevention and control of type II diabetes mellitus and its consequential damage, such as. B. polyneuropathy, cataract or cardiovascular disease.
- the mitochondrial NADH-dependent lipoamide reductase of mammals shows an almost 20-fold higher activity with the R enantiomer than with the S form. Furthermore, compared to the S enantiomer, R- ⁇ -lipoic acid has a significantly stronger effect on insulin-mediated glucose uptake and the glucose metabolism of skeletal muscle cells in insulin-resistant rats. The R-shape also showed in animal experiments an anti-inflammatory effect, while the S-shape had an analgesic effect. In order to avoid undesirable side effects, it is therefore extremely desirable to apply ⁇ -lipoic acid only in the enantiomerically pure form.
- ⁇ -lipoic acid takes place exclusively by means of chemical processes, the racemate always being formed from the R and S forms as the end product (Yadav et al., 1990, J. Sei. Ind. Res. 49: 400-409 ).
- Various processes have been developed to obtain enantiomerically pure R- ⁇ -lipoic acid.
- the racemate of ⁇ -lipoic acid or one of the synthetic intermediates can either be chemically by means of chiral auxiliary substances (Walton et. Al. 1954, J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 76: 4748; DE 4137773) or enzymatically (Adger et al., 1995, J. Chem.
- This object is achieved by a method which is characterized in that a cell which has an attenuated lipoyl protein ligase A activity is cultured in a culture medium, the cell being enantiomerically pure R- ⁇ -lipoic acid in the free form Culture medium excretes and the enantiomerically pure R- ⁇ -lipoic acid is separated from the culture medium.
- an attenuated lipoyl protein ligase A activity is preferably to be understood to mean that the intracellular activity of the LplA protein in the cell is 25 to 100%, particularly preferably around, compared to a wild-type cell 75 to 100%, is reduced. Completely the intracellular activity of the LplA protein is particularly preferably completely switched off.
- Lipoyl protein ligase A is not involved in the de novo synthesis of R- ⁇ -lipoic acid, rather the activity of this enzyme is the coupling of free R- ⁇ -lipoic acid to the E2 subunits of ⁇ -keto acid dehydrogenases .
- reducing or completely switching off the lipoyl protein ligase A activity in a wild-type strain leads to the accumulation of free, enantiomerically pure R- ⁇ -lipoic acid in the culture medium of these cells, although both in an E.
- the elimination of free R- ⁇ -lipoic acid from the cells allows simple isolation of the product from the culture medium after separation of the biomass, without the cells having to be broken up beforehand or without the R- ⁇ -lipoic acid being expensive and lossy Hydrolysis step from the bound carrier protein (ACP or the E2 subunit of the ⁇ -keto acid dehydrogenases) must be split off.
- the lipoyl protein ligase A activity encoded by the IplA gene is to be understood as that lipoyl protein ligase activity of a cell which has a clear substrate preference for free R- ⁇ -lipoic acid in comparison to R- ⁇ -lipoyl-ACP having.
- the LplA protein has about 100 times higher activity with free R- ⁇ -lipoic acid than with R- ⁇ -lipoyl-ACP.
- the lipoyl protein ligase A activity of a cell thus clearly differs from the lipoyl protein ligase B activity, which R- ⁇ -lipoyl-ACP prefers as the substrate over free R- ⁇ -lipoic acid (see FIG. 1 and 2).
- the lipoyl protein ligase A gene is preferably a gene with the sequence SEQ ID NO: 1 or a functional variant of this gene.
- a functional variant is to be understood as a DNA sequence which is derived from the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 by deletion, insertion or substitution of nucleotides, the enzymatic activity and specificity of the sequence shown by the Gene encoded lipoyl protein ligase A is preserved.
- the lipoyl protein ligase A gene encodes a protein comprising the sequence ID NO: 2 or functional variants with a sequence homology to SEQ ID NO: 2 greater than 35%.
- sequence homology to SEQ ID NO: 2 is preferably greater than 60%, particularly preferably the sequence homology to SEQ ID NO: 2 is greater than 80%.
- a downturn chung can be achieved, for example, by reducing the expression of the corresponding gene or by replacing the chromosomal wild-type gene with a mutated allele which codes for an enzyme with a reduced activity. In extreme cases, the enzyme activity can also be switched off completely.
- the expression of a gene can be reduced or prevented, for example, by the following measures: - weakening of the promoter by means of suitable base substitutions
- Mutated alleles of a gene that code for an enzyme with a reduced activity can be generated, for example, by the following measures:
- Mutated alleles of the Ipl ⁇ gene can be generated using standard molecular biology methods. A preferred way of doing this is to introduce specific base substitutions into the gene. This can take place, for example, in that during the amplification of the 2pl gene by means of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) by using special mutagenic primers, the base sequence of the gene or its promoter are specifically changed at one or more positions (site-specific mutagenesis).
- PCR polymerase chain reaction
- the introduction of a deletion into the Ipl ⁇ gene is particularly preferred. This can be achieved by first cloning the gene into a plasmid vector (e.g. pUC18, pBR322, pACYC184) after amplification by means of PCR using specific primers which detect the complete Ipl ⁇ gene. By restricting the plasmid obtained in this way with suitable restriction endonucleases which only cut in the region of the Ipl ⁇ gene, internal regions of the gene can be removed. In this way, after religation of the restricted plasmid, an internal deletion can be introduced into the Ipl ⁇ gene. As an alternative to religation of the plasmid restricted in the Ipl ⁇ gene, an antibiotic resistance cassette can also be cloned into the Ipl ⁇ gene.
- a plasmid vector e.g. pUC18, pBR322, pACYC184
- cells are used which secrete enantiomerically pure R- ⁇ -lipoic acid in a culture medium and have an attenuated lipoyl protein ligase A activity, where they have an IplA allele instead of a wild-type IplA gene , which has a base substitution in the region of base pairs 367-465, which leads to the LplA protein having at least 50% reduced activity, or a deletion in the Ipl ⁇ gene.
- the present invention thus also relates to a cell with the aforementioned properties.
- the activity of the LplA protein is preferably reduced by 50 to 100%, particularly preferably by 75% to 100%.
- base substitution in the gene region mentioned means that no more activity of the LplA protein can be detected.
- the cells according to the invention there is only one fragment of the IplA gene generated by an internal deletion on the chromosome of the host organism, which fragment can no longer code for a functional lipoyl protein ligase A activity.
- Cells with weakened lipoyl protein ligase A activity can be produced by replacing the Ipl ⁇ wild-type gene with an Ipl ⁇ allele coding for an LplA protein with an at least 50% compared to the wild-type Protein reduced activity is introduced.
- cells according to the invention can thus preferably be produced from cells of pro- or eukaryotic organisms which are able to synthesize R- ⁇ -lipoic acid themselves (starting cell), which are accessible to recombinant processes and which can be cultivated by fermentation. Plant or animal cells that can be grown in cell culture are thus also suitable for producing cells according to the invention. Starting cells which have not previously been manipulated can be used to produce cells according to the invention.

- the invention thus also relates in particular to cells which, in addition to the activity of the LplA protein which is reduced or absent by at least 50%, by an increased expression of the lipA gene via an increased lipoic acid synthase activity or by an increased expression of the lipB gene have increased lipoyl protein ligase B activity.
