Abstract

In order to enhance glutathione production, various recombinant plasmids containing gshI and/or gshII genes isolated from E. coli K-12 were constructed and introduced into E. coli. Some plasmids contained one to three copies of gshI genes in pBR325 and others contained both gshI and genes for glutathione biosynthesis. $\gamma$-Glutamylcysteine synthetase activities of E, coli strains amplified tandem repeated gshI genes were dependent on the number of inserted gshI genes. The glutathione productivity of E. coli strains harboring various plasmids was investigated using an E. coli acetate kinase reaction as an ATP regenerating system. The glutathione productivity of E. coli strains harboring tandem repeated gshI genes was increased in proportion to the number of inserted gshI genes. By the introduction of gshII gene, the glutathione productivity of the E. coli was increased by two-fold compared with E. coli strain amplified gshI gene only. The enzymatic production of glytathione in E. coli was mainly affected by the increase of $\gamma$-glutamylcysteine synthetase activity. The highest glutathione productivity was obtained in E. coli strains harboring pGH-501 plasmid containing two copies of gshI and copy of gshII genes in pUC8 vector.

E. coli에서 글루타치온 생산 증가를 위해서 E. coli에서 분리한 gehI과 gshII유전자를 함유하고 있는 여러 재조합 플라스미드를 구성하여 도입하였다.pBR325 벡터에 gehI 유전자를 각각 1-3개를 포함한 재조합 플라스미드 및 gehI과 gehII 유전자를 동시에 갖는 재조합 플라스미드를 구성하였다. 계속적으로 반복된 gehI 유전자가 증폭된 E. colidml $\gamma $-gluramylcysteine synthetase의 효소활성은 삽입된 gehI 유전자의 부에 따라 증가하였다. 구성된 재조합 플라스미드를 함유한 E.coli의 글루타치온 생산능을 accetate kinase반응을 ATP재생계로 사용하여 조사한 결과 반복된 gehI 유전자를 함유한 E.coli의 글루타치온 생산능력은 삽입된 gehI 유전자의 수에 비례한여 증가하였으며, gehI 유전자의 추가적인 도입에 의해 글루타치온 생산능력은 2배 증가하였다. E.coli에서 글루타치온의 효소적 생산은 주로 \gamma $-gluramylcysteine synthetase의 효소활성에 의해 영향을 받았다. 가장 높은 글루타치온 생산능은 pGH501 (pUC8-gsh.I.II.III) 플라스미드를 갖는 균주에서 관찰되었다.
