On-line untargeted metabolomics monitoring of an Escherichia coli succinate fermentation process

ABSTRACT: The real-time monitoring of metabolites (RTMet) is instrumental for the industrial production of biobased fermentation products. This study shows the first application of untargeted on-line metabolomics for the monitoring of undiluted fermentation broth samples taken automatically from a 5 L bioreactor every 5 min via flow injection mass spectrometry. The travel time from the bioreactor to the mass spectrometer was 30 s. Using mass spectrometry allows, on the one hand, the direct monitoring of targeted key process compounds of interest and, on the other hand, provides information on hundreds of additional untargeted compounds without requiring previous calibration data. In this study, this technology was applied in an Escherichia coli succinate fermentation process and 886 different m/z signals were monitored, including key process compounds (glucose, succinate, and pyruvate), potential biomarkers of biomass formation such as (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate and (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylpentanoate and compounds from the pentose phosphate pathway and nucleotide metabolism, among others. The main advantage of the RTMet technology is that it allows the monitoring of hundreds of signals without the requirement of developing partial least squares regression models, making it a perfect tool for bioprocess monitoring and for testing many different strains and process conditions for bioprocess development.

Project description:Over the past three decades, due to the universal application of Pichia yeast in the fermentation industry as well as the establishment of Pichia pastoris fermentation process for more than 30 years, the technology of the whole process has become very mature and has now reached a stagnated period of growth. However, studies and research conducted on the genomics of the classic fermentation process and the uncovering of the biological phenomena in the fermentation process from the point of view of high-throughput gene or protein is still in its early stages, and there is still insufficient data within this field. First, in collaboration with Agilent Company, we designed and prepared an expression microarray that could be used for the detection of Pichia pastoris transcriptomics. The transcriptomic changes in the five key technology steps (time points), during the fermentation process of Pichia pastoris would then be detected with the aid of an expression microarray. The five key steps of technology described above formed two important biological processes, namely, the limiting carbon source replacement and secondly, the fermentative production of exogenous proteins. The biological phenomena involved in these two processes were displayed and analyzed at the transcriptional level. In addition to this, with regard to the most important function in the fermentation process of Pichia pastoris, oxid-reduction, the metabolic drift process was analyzed and the important genes that might dominate the changes in the metabolic flux were discovered creatively by using the function tree method in this paper. This study was undertaken from the point of view of the transcriptome and the biological phenomena in the fermemntation process of Pichia pastoris. Both of which, were thoroughly explained during this study. The hope is for many more researchers to optimize the strain fermentation process, to produce proteins at the genetic level, as well as providing and obtaining new perspectives and detailed scientific data for the continued development within this field. The transcriptomic changes in the five key technology steps (time points), during the fermentation process of Pichia pastoris would then be detected with the aid of an expression microarray.
