Abstract From both economic and environmental perspectives, ethylene glycol, the principal constituent in the degradation of PET, emerges as an optimal feedstock for microbial cell factories. Traditional methods for constructing Escherichia coli chassis cells capable of utilizing ethylene glycol as a non-sugar feedstock typically involve overexpressing the genes fucO and aldA. However, these approaches have not succeeded in enabling the exclusive use of ethylene glycol as the sole source of carbon and energy for growth. Through ultraviolet radiation-induced mutagenesis and subsequent laboratory adaptive evolution, an EG02 strain emerged from E. coli MG1655 capable of utilizing ethylene glycol as its sole carbon and energy source, demonstrating an uptake rate of 8.1 ± 1.3 mmol/gDW h. Comparative transcriptome analysis guided reverse metabolic engineering, successfully enabling four wild-type E. coli strains to metabolize ethylene glycol exclusively. This was achieved through overexpression of the gcl, hyi, glxR, and glxK genes. Notably, the engineered E. coli chassis cells efficiently metabolized the 87 mM ethylene glycol found in PET enzymatic degradation products following 72 h of fermentation. This work presents a practical solution for recycling ethylene glycol from PET waste degradation products, demonstrating that simply adding M9 salts can effectively convert them into viable raw materials for E. coli cell factories. Our findings also emphasize the significant roles of genes associated with the glycolate and glyoxylate degradation I pathway in the metabolic utilization of ethylene glycol, an aspect frequently overlooked in previous research. |
