Farnesol (FOH) production device

Farnesol is probably generated through FPP hydrolysis by endogenous phosphatases, which are induced by an increased intracellular FPP level. Analogously, we hypothesized that E. coli could produce Farnesol under cellular conditions of an increased intracellular FPP level through metabolic engineering. A MEP pathway has been shown to synthesize IPP and DMAPP efficiently in E. coli.

Because of its high hydrophobicity and low volatility, decane was chosen to extract and solubilize Farnesol from culture broth. The decane overlay in the two-phase culture did not affect growth, and Farnesol could be solubilized in the decane phase with negligible volatile loss. We adopt 1 mL of decane overlaid to 5 mL of culture broth. Two-phase culture of E. coli JM109 (BBa_K1653025) was carried out in 2YT medium containing 1% glycerol at 29°C for 48 h. The decane phase of the two-phase culture was collected to analyze the Farnesol content by GC-MS. In the GC-MS analysis (Fig. 1 A-G), there was a main peak at 8.5 min in the collected decane phase sample, which corresponded to the reference solution of the standard Farnesol compound dissolved in decane. Mass spectrometry confirmed that the peak at 8.5 min was Farnesol (Fig. 1 A). However, the peak was not observed in two-phase culture without introducing BBa_K165025. The formation of Farnesol from FPP was further confirmed by blocking FPP synthesis. In the GC-MS, the Farnesol peak was observed in E. coli JM109 (BBa_K1653025) culture, whereas no peak was observed with transformed E. coli JM109. It was found that Farnesol need not only ispA(BBa_K1653018) but also Terpene precursor mass-production device(BBa_K1653024) in E. coli.　We submit new part(BBa_K1653025) as producing Farnesol.
