Abstract:
:Glutathione (GSH) and S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) have been applied as liver-protective factors to prevent and treat many different liver damages and diseases. Due to their low stability and short half-life, oral administration of GSH or SAM might be replaced by continuous supplying through living lactic bacteria in yogurt. In this study, Lactococcus lactis was engineered via synthetic biology strategies to produce these two important molecules. The bi-functional GSH synthase gene (gshF) and SAM synthase gene (metK) were transformed into food-grade L. lactis together with an adhesion factor gene (cwaA). The highest accumulation of SAM (9.0 mg/L) and GSH (17.3 mg/L) was achieved after 17 h cultivation of the recombinant L. lactis. Meanwhile, the autoaggregation and hydrophobicity were also improved significantly, which suggested that this engineered L. lactis might have an increased colonization-prone ability in human GI. Our studies demonstrated one potential route to self-produce and deliver the liver-healthy factors within living probiotic bacteria.
