川大成果!合成生物“长寿分子” 亚精胺实现量产!
#SynBio团队 | 四川 大学秦久福研究员 在四川大学的实验室里,看似普通的发酵罐中,正孕育着一场技术革命, 四川大学轻工科学与工程 学院研究员秦久福 和他的团队利用将微生物改造成高效"细胞工厂"的 合成生物 学技术,不断探索 一种名为亚精胺的天然分子的生产和应用方式。 亚精胺是一种人体内天然存在的多胺类物质,因其在抗衰老、心血管疾病预防等领域的广泛应用,又 被誉为"下一个千亿级生物活性分子"。然而,其高昂的生产成本长期制约着产业化进程。 秦久福和其团队通过多年的技术攻坚,不仅提升了亚精胺的合成效率,更通过与行业龙头之间的合 作,探索出一条从实验室到产业的"最后一公里"路径。 更具颠覆性的突破在于胞外分泌机制的发现。天然状态下亚精胺储存在细胞内,提取时需破碎细胞, 这不仅导致能耗增加,还引入大量杂质。团队通过生物信息学筛选,从大量候选转运蛋白中找到能将 亚精胺主动排出细胞的"运输机器",大大提高了杂质去除率。 "新的技术路径下,发酵液纯化过程相当于从原来的'榨果汁'变成'接自来水',同步实现了效率提升和 能耗降低。"柳丝琪比喻道。 秦久福带着团队深度参与到企业真实的市场需求中去,这种"产学研衔接"的模式, ...
