2′-Fucosyllactose (2′-FL) is a kind of fucosylated human milk oligosaccharide (HMO), representing the most abundant in breast milk. We conducted systematic studies on three canonical α1,2-fucosyltransferases (WbgL, FucT2, and WcfB) to quantify byproducts lacZ- wcaJ-deleted Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) basic host strain. Further, we screened highly active α1,2-fucosyltransferase from Helicobacter sp. 11S02629-2 (BKHT), which exhibits high vivo 2′-FL productivity without formation difucosyl lactose (DFL) 3-FL. The maximum titer yield reached 11.13 g/L 0.98 mol/mol lactose, respectively, shake-flask cultivation, both approaching theoretical value. In 5 L fed-batch 94.7 extracellularly with mol 2′-FL/mol 1.14 g L–1 h–1. Our reported highest date.

Lacto-N-fucopentaose I (LNFP I) has recently been approved as generally recognized safe, demonstrating its great commercial potential in the food industry. Microbial synthesis through metabolic engineering strategies is an effective approach for large-scale production of LNFP I. Biosynthesis requires consideration two key points: high titer with low byproduct 2′-fucosyllactose (2′-FL) generation and purity lacto-N-triose II (LNTri II) lacto-N-tetraose (LNT) residues. Herein, α1,2-fucosyltransferase from Thermoanaerobacterium sp. RBIITD was screened 16 selected I-producing glycosyltransferase candidates, showing highest vivo productivity. Chromosomal integration wbgO enhanced by improving precursor conversion LNTri to LNT. The best engineered strain produced 4.42 35.1 g/L shake-flask fed-batch cultivation, respectively. residual LNT were eliminated further cultivation a recombinant coexpressing Bifidobacterium bifidum β-N-acetylhexosaminidase lacto-N-biosidase. A strategy biosynthesis yield finally realized, providing support practical application production.

l-Fucose is an important monosaccharide unit that exists in various biomasses, especially microalgae. Microbial l-fucose using metabolically engineered strains has attracted attention due to its high yield and industrial feasibility. Previously, we Escherichia coli MG1655 efficiently produce 2′-fucosyllactose by genomic integration. Herein, this plasmid-free strain was further integrating a specific α-l-fucosidase gene deleting the degradation pathway.
