Abstract: The present invention discloses a single-cell factory for efficiently synthesizing α-aminobutyric acid and construction and application thereof, which belong to the technical field of microorganisms. The present invention expresses an L-threonine deaminase gene, an L-amino acid dehydrogenase gene and a dehydrogenase gene for providing cofactor NADH cycle in tandem to construct a recombinant Escherichia coli single-cell factory which is used for efficiently synthesizing α-aminobutyric acid. The expression level of the L-threonine deaminase is optimized and controlled by an RBS sequence, so that the problem of transformation inhibition caused by the rapid accumulation of an intermediate product ketobutyric acid is solved, moreover, the expression level of the dehydrogenase for providing cofactor NADH cycle is optimized and controlled by a promoter and an RBS sequence, consequently, the NADH regeneration rate is increased, and ultimately, yield is increased. Utilizing the single-cell factory to carry out whole-cell transformation can reduce obstacles to substances getting in and out, increase the transformation rate and promote the intracellular cycle of cofactors without requiring exogenous addition, and the cost is low. Within 20 h, the yield of the recombinant Escherichia coli single-cell factory in a 5 L fermentation tank is 204 g·L−1, the space-time yield is 10.2 g·L−1·h−1, and a practical effective strategy is provided for industrialized production

Abstract: The invention discloses a method for increasing the yield of L-arginine by knocking out flavin reductases, and belongs to the technical field of amino acid production by microbial fermentation. Genes frd1 and frd2 for encoding hypothetic NADPH-dependent FMN reductase in Corynebacterium crenatum SDNN403 are over-expressed in E. coli BL21 and are purified to form target proteins Frd181 and Frd188, and functions of the target proteins are identified to obtain a result showing that the proteins Frd181 and Frd188 both are NAD(P)H-dependent flavin reductases producing H2O2. By taking a genome of the Corynebacterium crenatum SDNN403 as a template, frd1 and frd2 gene deletion fragments are obtained by overlap extension PCR; connecting pK18mobsacB to obtain knockout plasmids pK18mobsacB-Δfrd1 and pK18mobsacB-Δfrd2; carrying out electric shock to transform the Corynebacterium crenatum SDNN403; and carrying out secondary screening to obtain recombinant strains 403Δfrd1 and 403Δfrd2. Found by flask shaking fermentation, the yield of L-arginine is obviously increased by knocking out the genes frd1 and frd2.
