The NAD(+)-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH) gene from Candida boidinii was introduced into Paenibacillus polymyxa ZJ-9. The effects of this exogenous gene on the growth of the recombinant strain P. polymyxa XG-1, FDH activity, intracellular NADH and NAD(+) level and the synthesis of R,R-2,3-butanediol (R,R-2,3-BD) were determined. Results from the fermentation in the 7.5L bioreactor showed that the exogenous FDH was highly expressed in the recombinant strain. The titers of NADH, lactic acid, ethanol, NADH/NAD(+), and CO2 excretion rate (CER) of the recombinant strain increased considerably, while acetoin and formic acid decreased significantly. The highest titers of R,R-2,3-BD by the recombinant strain in batch and fed-batch fermentation were 36.8g/L and 51.3g/L, increased 10.2% and 8.0% compared with the parent strain, respectively. This study confirmed that coenzyme regeneration system can manipulate substance metabolism in bacteria, and is an efficient way for promoting the synthesis of NADH-dependent products.

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) is an important zoonotic pathogenic virus, which poses serious threats to public health. MPXV infection can be prevented by immunization against the variola virus. Because of the safety risks and side effects of vaccination with live vaccinia virus (VACV) strain Tian Tan (VTT), we constructed two gene-deleted VTT recombinants (TTVAC7 and TTVC5).

9-kDa Granulysin is a protein present in the granules of human activated cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells. It has been shown to exert cytolytic activity against a wide variety of microbes: bacteria, fungi, yeast and protozoa. Recombinant isolated granulysin is also capable of inducing tumor cell death, so it could be used as an anti-tumor therapy.

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production using methanotrophs offers an economical solution to counter increasing environmental pollution. However, the substrate specificity of methanotrophs limits their ability to use multiple gases for chemical production. In this study, a synthetic heterotrophic and methanotrophic co-culture system was developed to co-utilize methane and propane for PHB production.

As an important industrial enzyme, chymosin has been widely used in cheese manufacturing. Fermentation with Kluyveromyces lactis has allowed recombinant chymosin production to fit the growing global demand for cheese consumption; yet improvements can be made to allow for stable and larger-scale production. In this work, various chymosin producing (CP) strains were constructed via targeted chromosomal integration of various copies of a prochymosin expression cassette (PEC) using a CRISPR-Cas9 platform optimized for K.

Swine influenza virus invades the host through the respiratory mucosa, which severely restricts the development of the pig breeding industry. To construct monomeric and trimeric vaccines, we developed recombinant Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) strains that express the receptor binding site (RBS) of the hemagglutinin (HA) antigen from H1N1 swine influenza virus. After the mucosal immunization of mice, we found that probiotics activated CD40 and CD86 in DCs and increased the levels of IL-4 and IFN-γ secretion by T cells.
