Abstract
|
|
|
|
Cutinase as a promising biocatalyst has been intensively studied and applied in processes targeted for industrial scale. In this work, the cutinase gene tfu from Thermobifida fusca was artificially synthesized according to codon usage bias of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and investigated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Using the α-factor signal peptide, the T. fusca cutinase was successfully overexpressed and secreted with the GAL1 expression system. To increase the cutinase level and overcome some of the drawbacks of induction, four different strong promoters (ADH1, HXT1, TEF1, and TDH3) were comparatively evaluated for cutinase production. By comparison, promoter TEF1 exhibited an outstanding property and significantly increased the expression level. By fed-batch fermentation with a constant feeding approach, the activity of cutinase was increased to 29.7 U/ml. The result will contribute to apply constitutive promoter TEF1 as a tool for targeted cutinase production in S. cerevisiae cell factory.
