FERMENTATION PROCESS FOR PREPARING L-LYSINE
Technical Field
[1] The present invention relates to a method of activating a Corynebacterium sp. strain by pre-seed culture and seed culture of the same in a medium supplemented with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA), and a fermentation process for preparing L-lysine by main culturing the same.
Background Art
[2] L-lysine is one of the essential amino acids, and it has been used as an animal feed additive, a food additive and a medicinal ingredient. In particular, the market for L- lysine as an animal feed additive grew to approximately 860,000 tons in 2005, which shows L-lysine is a huge factor for producing a fermented product.
[3] L-lysine is industrially produced by direct fermentation using a medium supplemented with a carbon source such as raw sugar, glucose and molasses (sugar cane, sugar beet), a nitrogen source such as corn steep liquor (CSL), soybean meal hy- drolysate and ammonium sulfate, vitamins and minerals.
[4] The conventional methods for producing L-lysine are described in patent
documents; for example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei 4-66558 describes a method in which cane molasses and beet molasses diluted in water are passed through a cation exchange resin and the eluent is loaded in a fermentation medium to increase the fermentation concentration and yield of L-lysine. Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 1982-026594 describes a method for producing L- lysine by fermentation of the reaction product of cane molasses and beet molasses diluted in water with invertase using Corynebacterium.
Disclosure of Invention
Technical Problem
[5] The inventors completed the present invention by establishing a novel process for the fermentation of L-lysine with excellent fermentation efficiency. This was achieved by activating a Corynebacterium sp. strain by pre-seed culture and seed culture of the same in a medium supplemented with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA).
Technical Solution
[6] It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of activating a
Corynebacterium sp. strain to be used for the fermentation of L-lysine.
[7] It is another object of the present invention to provide a process for the fermentation of L-lysine using the activated Corynebacterium sp. strain.
[8] To achieve the above objects, the present invention provides a method of activating
a Corynebacterium sp. strain by pre-seed culture and seed culture of the same in a medium supplemented with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA).
[9] In the present invention, any Corynebacterium sp. strain that is a member of the
Corynebacterium genus and is able to produce L-lysine can be included. For example, a strain selected from a group consisting of Corynebacterium glutamicum,
Corynebacterium thermoaminogenes, Corynebacterium flavum and Corynebacterium lactofermentum can be used.
[10] The Corynebacterium sp. strain of the present invention is preferably
Corynebacterium glutamicum (Accession No: KFCC 11043).
[11] The present invention relates to a method of activating a Corynebacterium sp. strain to produce L-lysine by fermentation, in which pre-seed and seed culture media are supplemented with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid or a substance containing pyrrolidone carboxylic acid, and the Corynebacterium sp strain is cultured on the medium. It is not necessary to add pyrrolidone carboxylic acid to the medium during the main fermentation process following pre-seed or seed culture, so the post-seed culture addition of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid does not affect the fermentation efficiency.
[12] In general, the fermentation procedure is composed of the three steps of pre-seed culture, seed culture and main fermentation (main culture).
[13] Pre-seed culture is carried out to ensure the culture is pure before seed culture for efficient production and to maintain continuous activity of the bacterium.
[14] Seed culture is an interim process between pre-seed culture and main fermentation to increase the cell density and activity of the strain. To increase the efficiency of the fermentation process, the volume of a culture solution has to be 5 ~ 30 % of the initial volume of main fermentation, so it is preferred to perform seed culture before the main fermentation process. Seed culture consists of culturing the pure culture strain obtained from pre-seed culture until the strain is fully activated and the numbers have increased enough for the main culture. The seed culture solution is used directly for the main fermentation process.
[15] According to the batch fermentation process, a purely isolated strain is cultured in a small volume reactor. When the population of the strain reaches a certain level, they are transferred to a large volume reactor (in some cases, this process has to be repeated several times). After being through the above process, the required amount of cells for the main culture and a culture solution are created, wherein the activity is secured.
[16] According to the present invention, pyrrolidone carboxylic acid, known as a natural moisturing factor, or a substance containing pyrrolidone carboxylic acid is added to a medium for pre-seed culture or/and seed culture of a Corynebacterium sp. strain before the main fermentation process, so as to activate the strain. As a result, the productivity of L-lysine produced from the main fermentation process is also increased.
[17] In the present invention, pyrrolidone carboxylic acid is added independently, or a substance containing pyrrolidone carboxylic acid can be added.
[18] In the present invention, the preferable content of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid in a pre-seed culture and seed culture medium is 0.1 to 5 g/1.
[19] The substance containing pyrrolidone carboxylic acid is exemplified by animal skin, aloe, sugar beet, etc, and beet molasses is preferred. The preferable content of beet molasses in a pre-seed culture and seed culture medium is 5 to 100 g/1. The content of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid in beet molasses is approximately 2 to 3%.
[20] In addition to pyrrolidone carboxylic acid, various components such as a carbon source, a nitrogen source and minerals can be added to a pre-seed culture medium, a seed culture medium and a main fermentation medium.
[21] The carbon source is exemplified by carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose,
fructose, maltose and starch, and organic acids such as acetic acid and lactic acid. The carbon source can be added independently or combined with others. The nitrogen source is exemplified by organic nitrogen spruces such as peptone, yeast extract, gravy, malt extract, corn immersion solution and soybean molasses, and inorganic nitrogen sources such as urea, ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride, ammonium phosphate and ammonium nitrate. The nitrogen source can be added independently or combined with others. The medium is additionally supplemented with potassium dihydrogen phosphate or dipotassium hydrogen phosphate and its corresponding sodium salt as a phosphate source. A metal salt such as magnesium sulfate or iron sulfate might be added to the medium. In addition, amino acids, vitamins and a proper precursor can also be added. Such a medium or precursor can be added to the culture solution by batch-type or continuous addition.
[22] In order to regulate the pH of the culture medium, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or ammonia can be added during the culture. The generation of air bubbles during the culture is inhibited by using an antifoaming agent such as fatty acid polyglycol ester. To maintain aerobic conditions, oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas (for example: air) is added to the culture medium. The preferable temperature of the culture medium is 20 to 450C and more preferably 25 to 4O0C. The culture period is determined as the duration of L-lysine generation, which is preferably 10 to 160 hours.
[23] The method for producing the above culture is selected from a group consisting of batch culture, continuous culture and fed culture. Fed culture includes fed-batch culture and repeated fed-batch culture, but is not always limited thereto.
[24] The present invention relates to a fermentation process for producing L-lysine, in which the Corynebacterium sp. strain activated as described above is cultured.
[25] The isolation of L-lysine from the culture medium in the fermentation process of the present invention is performed by any conventional method known to those in the
art, which is exemplified by centrifugation, membrane filtration, ion exchange chromatography and crystallization. For example, low-speed centrifugation can be performed to separate L-lysine from the culture medium or ion chromatography can be performed on the supernatant with the elimination of biomass using a membrane. Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
