中文摘要： 生物催化是最绿色的技术之一，而有机溶剂对于微生物细胞的毒性往往成为限制整体细胞生物催化剂工业化应用的最大障碍之一。有关微生物细胞耐溶剂性的分子机制是国际上的研究热点，相关机制尚待建立和完善。本课题拟从耐溶剂驯化菌株Pseudomonas putida JUCT1和Escherichia coli JUCT609出发，一方面采用蛋白质组学方法，进行全基因组的表达水平分析，鉴定与细胞耐溶剂性相关的基因并研究其作用机制；另一方面采用全局转录机制调控手段，并结合基因芯片技术，研究与细胞耐溶剂表型相关的全局转录调控机制。基于以上耐溶剂性相关基因和全局转录调控机制的研究，建立和完善微生物细胞溶剂耐受性的分子机制，为构建包括大肠杆菌和其它革兰氏阴性菌的耐溶剂性整体细胞生物催化剂提供理论依据和有效途径。因此，本课题对开发有实际应用价值和自主知识产权的耐溶剂型整体细胞生物催化剂具有重要意义。

英文摘要： Biocatalysis is a green technology compared with traditional chemistry and chemical process. However, industrial application of whole-cell biocatalysis is usually hindered by the toxicity of most organic solvents. The organic-solvent-tolerant (OST) mechanisms of microbial cells have been investigated since the first OST strain P. putida was reported in 1989. However, The OST mechanisms of microorganisms are not completely understood so far. In this study, proteomic analysis will be applied to analyze total cellular protein samples of OST adaptive mutants, Pseudomonas putida JUCT1 and Escherichia coli JUCT609, to identify OST associated proteins and to further understand its machinery. Additionally, global transcription machinery engineering (gTME) in combining with DNA microarray will be applied to improve organic-solvent tolerance of non-OST Escherichia coli strains, and the underlying mechanism of the OST phenotype will also be elucidated. Therefore, this study is important for understanding the microbial OST mechanisms, and will provide molecular basis and feasible approach for constructing Escherichia coli as well as other Gram-negative OST strains with independent intellectual property for industrial whole-cell biocatalysis applications.
