Food-grade expression systems

• Bacillus subtilis

• E. coli K12

• Lactic acid bacteria (LAB)

– NICE system : Lactococcus lactis

– pSIP-based system : Lactobacillus spp.

• pSIP409, pSIP609

• Lactobacillus plantarum

Lactobacillus plantarum Expression System

• Food-grade bacteria • Generally recognized as safe

status (GRAS) • Probiotics • No endotoxins • No inclusion bodies • Simple cultivation, non-aerated

fermentation • Complex nutritional

requirements • Acidifying culture, required pH-

control

pSIP-based expression system

• quorum-sensing mechanisms to induce gene expression, using bacteriocins (Sakacin A and Sakacin P).

• Suitable for Lactobacillus spp.

• Promoter PsapA in the pSIP300 series and PsppA or PsppQ (ProfX) in the pSIP400 series

• All components are located in one plasmid with modular design

Conclusions

• Two bacillus hydrolytic enzymes (Csn and ManB) were successfully expressed in L. plantarum food-grade expression system, using pSIP-based vector

• Both E. coli OmpA and bacillus native signal peptides can direct the secretion of both enzymes into culture broth; however, native signal peptide is more efficient
