| Popis: | Zymomonas mobilis (Z. mobilis) is a potential candidate for consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) strain in lignocellulosic biorefinery. However, the low-level secretion of cellulases limits this CBP process, and the mechanism of protein secretion affected by cell wall peptidoglycan is also not well understood. Here we constructed several Penicillin Binding Proteins (PBPs)-deficient strains derivated from Z. mobilis S192 to perturb the cell wall peptidoglycan network and investigated the effects of peptidoglycan on the endoglucanase secretion. Results showed that extracellular recombinant endoglucanase production was significantly enhanced in PBPs mutant strains, notably, △1089/0959 (4.09-fold) and △0959 (5.76-fold) in comparison to parent strains. Besides, for PBPs-deficient strains, the growth performance was not significantly inhibited but with enhanced antibiotic sensitivity and reduced inhibitor tolerance, otherwise, cell morphology was altered obviously. The concentration of intracellular soluble peptidoglycan was increased, especially for single gene deletion. Outer membrane permeability of PBPs-deficient strains was also improved, notably, △1089/0959 (1.14-fold) and △0959 (1.07-fold), which might explain the increased endoglucanase extracellular secretion. Our finding indicated that PBPs-deficient Z. mobilis is capable of increasing endoglucanase extracellular secretion via cell wall peptidoglycan disturbance and it will provide a foundation for the development of CBP technology in Z. mobilis in the future. IMPORTANCE Cell wall peptidoglycan has the function to maintain cell robustness, and also acts as the barrier to secret recombinant proteins from the cytoplasm to extracellular space in Z. mobilis and other bacterias. Herein, we perturb the peptidoglycan synthesis network via knocking out PBPs (ZMO0197, ZMO0959, ZMO1089) in order to enhance recombinant endoglycanase extracellular secretion in Z. mobilis S912. This study can not only lay the foundation for understanding the regulatory network of cell wall synthesis but also provide guidance for the construction of CBP strains in Z. mobilis. |
