The succinic acid producer Mannheimia succiniciproducens can efficiently utilize sucrose as a carbon source, but its metabolism has not been understood. This study revealed that M. succiniciproducens uses a sucrose phosphotransferase system (PTS), sucrose 6-phosphate hydrolase, and a fructose PTS for the transport and utilization of sucrose.

Article Synopsis
- Succinic acid (SA) is an important industrial compound that can be produced effectively through metabolic engineering, but the role of magnesium (Mg) ions in this process has not been thoroughly explored.
- This study focused on the impact of Mg ions on SA production by reconstructing the Mg ion transport system in a specific strain of bacteria, leading to the development of a hyper-producing variant.
- The engineered strain achieved a high yield of 152.23 g/L of SA in a fed-batch fermentation process, indicating that optimizing Mg ion transport is crucial for enhancing succinic acid production.

Microbial production of various TCA intermediates and related chemicals through the reductive TCA cycle has been of great interest. However, rumen bacteria that naturally possess strong reductive TCA cycle have been rarely studied to produce these chemicals, except for succinic acid, due to their dependence on fumarate reduction to transport electrons for ATP synthesis. In this study, malic acid (MA), a dicarboxylic acid of industrial importance, was selected as a target chemical for mass production using Mannheimia succiniciproducens, a rumen bacterium possessing a strong reductive branch of the TCA cycle.

L-theanine is the most abundant free amino acid in tea that offers various favorable physiological and pharmacological effects. Bacterial enzyme of γ-glutamylmethylamide synthetase (GMAS) can catalyze the synthesis of theanine from glutamate, ethylamine and ATP, but the manufacturing cost is uncompetitive due to the expensive substrates and complex processes. In this study, we described pathway engineering of wild-type for one-step fermentative production of theanine from sugars and ethylamine.

Succinic acid (SA), a dicarboxylic acid of industrial importance, can be efficiently produced by metabolically engineered Mannheimia succiniciproducens. Malate dehydrogenase (MDH) is one of the key enzymes for SA production, but has not been well characterized. Here we report biochemical and structural analyses of various MDHs and development of hyper-SA producing M.
