Abstract | Industrial microorganisms used for the production of organic acids often face challenges such as inhibited cell growth and reduced production efficiency due to the accumulation of acidic metabolites. Therefore, how to improve the acid resistance of microbial cells is a key issue that has been repeatedly discussed. In this study, Overexpressing the cfa2 from extreme acidophile improved the resistance of E. coli to moderate acid stress. Subsequently, the engineered strain M1-93-Accfa2, constructed by integrating Accfa2 into the E. coli genome using the CRISPR-Cas9 dual-plasmid system, presented a significantly increased resistance to severe acid stress (pH 4.8). The analysis of fatty acid profiles showed that the proportions of two cyclopropane fatty acids (CFAs), Cy-17:0 and Cy-19:0, in the cell membrane of M1-93-Accfa2 increased by 1.26 and 5.26 times, respectively. Meanwhile, two unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs), C16:1w9c and C18:1w9c, decreased by 1.31 and 5.81 times, respectively, compared with the control strain. Correspondingly, its membrane permeability and fluidity were significantly reduced. HPLC analysis demonstrated that the contents of several free amino acids closely related to acid resistance in M1-93-Accfa2 cells after environmental acidification, such as glutamic acid, arginine, methionine and aspartic acid, were 2.59, 2.04, 22.07 and 2.65 times that of the control strain, respectively. Meanwhile, TEM observation indicated that M1-93-Accfa2 could maintain a plumper cell morphology after acid stimulation than other strains. M1-93-Accfa2 also exhibited excellent resistance to organic acids, especially succinic acid stress. Overall, the engineering strain M1-93-Accfa2 constructed in this study exhibited excellent performance in the resistance to acid stress and had potential application value in organic acid production. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
