Inverse metabolic engineering (IME) provides a strategy to rapidly identify the genetic elements responsible for the desired phenotype of a chosen target organism. This methodology has been successfully applied towards enhancing the N-linked glycosylation efficiency of Escherichia coli. Here, we describe the generation of differentially sized libraries from the E. coli W3110 genome followed by high-throughput semiquantitative glycan specific screening. DNA sequenced targets demonstrating increased levels of glycan production were selected for forward engineering, protein overexpression, and absolute quantification of glycoproteins.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011134 Polysaccharides Long chain polymeric CARBOHYDRATES composed of MONOSACCHARIDES linked by glycosidic bonds. Glycan,Glycans,Polysaccharide
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
