Catabolism of Phenylacetic acid (cas 103-82-2) in Penicillium rubens. Proteome-wide analysis in response to the benzylpenicillin side chain precursor

Biosynthesis of benzylpenicillin in filamentous fungi (e.g. Penicillium chrysogenum - renamed as Penicillium rubens- and Aspergillus nidulans) depends on the addition of CoA-activated forms of Phenylacetic acid (cas 103-82-2) to isopenicillin N. Phenylacetic acid is also detoxified by means of the homogentisate pathway, which begins with the hydroxylation of phenylacetic acid to 2-hydroxyphenylacetate in a reaction catalysed by the pahA-encoded phenylacetate hydroxylase. This catabolic step has been tested in three different penicillin-producing strains of P. rubens (P. notatum, P. chrysogenum NRRL 1951 and P. chrysogenum Wisconsin 54–1255) in the presence of sucrose and lactose as non-repressing carbon sources. P. chrysogenum Wisconsin 54–1255 was able to accumulate 2-hydroxyphenylacetate at late culture times. Analysis of the P. rubens genome showed the presence of several PahA homologs, but only Pc16g01770 was transcribed under penicillin production conditions. Gene knock-down experiments indicated that the protein encoded by Pc16g01770 seems to have residual activity in phenylacetic acid degradation, this catabolic activity having no effect on benzylpenicillin biosynthesis. Proteome-wide analysis of the Wisconsin 54–1255 strain in response to phenylacetic acid revealed that this molecule has a positive effect on some proteins directly related to the benzylpenicillin biosynthetic pathway, the synthesis of amino acid precursors and other important metabolic processes.
