Lactate production (ldhA, lldP, ACS operon)

This "lactate production" composite part is composed of Lactate dehydrogenase (LdhA):BBa_K3102026 and lactate permease (LldP):BBa_K3102027 sequences. This part increases the production and secretion of D-Lactate in the extracellular media. The LDHA enzyme catalyse the interconversion of pyruvate to L-lactate with simultaneous conversion of NADH to NAD+.

This composite part also constains the ACS operon:BBa_K3102028, composed of three genes: actP (Transports acetate), acs (catalyzes the conversion of acetate into acetyl-CoA), and yfcH (epimerase). It allows for the uptake of acetate molecules in order for the bacteria to do correctly its metabolism and survive.

Comparison of lactate secretion between engineered and non-engineered bacteria

Aims: An important step in our system in the optimization of lactate secretion by E. coli. Indeed, lactate constitute the energetic substrate of S. oneidensis and thus an essential element to the generation of electricity. Consequently, we wanted to compare lactate secretion between engineered and non-engineered bacteria.

Method: Lactate detection kit (Libios K-DATE Kit) was used as described in “Protocol: Lactate Detection” and the following measurement were recovered:

To have a better view of the efficiency of our modified bacteria, we calculated the following ratios:

These data shows clearly the efficiency of the modified organism to secrete more lactate.
