    Abstract:

    Heme,an iron containing prothetic group for oxygen transfer in the body,is a good kind of blood tonic. At present,only few studies on heme biosynthesis have been reported. The regulatory mechanism of heme biosynthesis is still unclear. In the present study,by applying the modular combination strategy,the committed genes hemA and hemL as the first module was overexpressed by the high copy number plasmid pUC19. In parallel,the downstream heme biosynthesis pathway genes were divided into the second(hemB,hemC,hemD and hemE) and third(hemF,hemG,and hemH) modules,and were combinatorially expressed by the plasmids pRSFDuet-2,pCDFDuet-2 and pACYCDuet-2. In comparison,the recombinant strain E. coli D6 achieved the highest heme titer(0.56 μmol/(L·OD)) at 48 h in shake flask cultures. By applying a batch fermentation strategy,the heme production was increased to 0.954 μmol/(L·OD) at 48 h in 3 L fermenter.
