| Abstract |
Geobacillus spp. are moderate thermophiles that can efficiently produce recombinant proteins. Considering the protein production exhibited by these species, we searched for robust promoters in Geobacillus kaustophilus HTA426. Transcriptome data revealed that several genes were highly expressed during the proliferative phase; their promoters were characterized using reporter assays with Venus fluorescent protein (VFP). The results suggested that the cspD promoter (PcspD) directed robust vfp expression at 60°C in G. kaustophilus. Although cspD potentially encodes a cold-shock protein, PcspD functioned at elevated temperatures. The promoter strongly functioned even in Escherichia coli; this prevented the cloning of some genes (e.g., vfp) downstream of it on a plasmid vector via E. coli-based genetic manipulation. Consequently, we generated a mutated PcspD that functioned inefficiently in E. coli and constructed the pGKE124 plasmid using the mutant promoter. The plasmid could carry vfp in E. coli and afford the production of VFP in G. kaustophilus at a yield of 390 mg/L. pGKE124 directed a similar production in other thermophilic species; the highest yield was observed in Geobacillus thermodenitrificans K1041. Several proteins could be produced using a system involving G. thermodenitrificans K1041 and pGKE124. Notably, the extracellular production of xylanase at a yield of 1 g/L was achieved using this system. Although the leaky production of nonsecretory proteins was observed, we developed a simple process to collectively purify recombinant proteins from the intracellular and extracellular fractions. The findings presented there propose an effective host-vector system for the production of recombinant proteins at elevated temperatures. KEY POINTS: • A thermophilic system to produce recombinant proteins was constructed. • The system produced diverse proteins using inexpensive media at elevated temperatures. • The system produced an extracellular protein at a yield of 1 g/L of culture.
