• PubMed Abstract: 
  

Hydroxytyrosol is an antioxidant free radical scavenger that is biosynthesized from tyrosine. In metabolic engineering efforts, the use of the mouse tyrosine hydroxylase limits its production. Here, we design an efficient whole-cell catalyst of hydroxytyrosol in Escherichia coli by de-bottlenecking two rate-limiting enzymatic steps. First, we replace the mouse tyrosine hydroxylase by an engineered two-component flavin-dependent monooxygenase HpaBC of E. coli through structure-guided modeling and directed evolution. Next, we elucidate the structure of the Corynebacterium glutamicum VanR regulatory protein complexed with its inducer vanillic acid. By switching its induction specificity from vanillic acid to hydroxytyrosol, VanR is engineered into a hydroxytyrosol biosensor. Then, with this biosensor, we use in vivo-directed evolution to optimize the activity of tyramine oxidase (TYO), the second rate-limiting enzyme in hydroxytyrosol biosynthesis. The final strain reaches a 95% conversion rate of tyrosine. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of sequentially de-bottlenecking rate-limiting steps for whole-cell catalyst development.
