This Invention discloses a method for production of N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine and/or D-Glucosamine Salt by microbial fermentation. The method is intended to manufacture N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine and/or D-Glucosamine Salt in higher efficiency and higher yield, by increasing the effects of N-Acetyl-D-Mannosamine Kinase.

The present invention is in the field of a method for production of biomedical compounds by enrichment cultures of microorganisms, and a product obtainable by said methods. The microorganisms are grown in a batch reactor, a continuous reactor, a semi-continuous reactor, such as a Nereda® reactor.

The disclosure discloses Bacillus subtilis for producing N-acetylneuraminic acid and application thereof, and belongs to the field of genetic engineering. The disclosure optimizes the expression levels of key enzymes in N-acetylneuraminic acid synthesis pathways on genome through promoters of different strength, reduces the protein synthesis pressure caused by the expression of enzymes on cells, and further integrates the three N-acetylneuraminic acids in a same Bacillus subtilis engineering strain. Bacillus subtilis with improved N-acetylneuraminic acid production is obtained, and the production reaches 10.4 g/L at the shake flask level, laying a foundation for further improving the NeuAc production from Bacillus subtilis.

Provided herein are genetically modified yeast cells capable of producing one or more human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and methods of making such cells. The yeast cells are engineered to comprise a heterologous nucleic acid encoding a transporter protein and one or more heterologous nucleic acids that encode enzymes of a HMO biosynthetic pathway. Also provided are fermentation compositions including the disclosed genetically modified yeast cells, and related methods of producing and recovering HMOs generated by the yeast cells.

Disclosed herein are methods of expressing UDP-GlcNAc 2-Epimerase/ManNAc Kinase enzyme (GNE) peptide in a cell of a subject comprising: delivering into the cell of the subject an isolated nucleic acid expression construct that comprises a promoter operatively linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a GNE peptide or a therapeutically active fragment thereof, wherein the GNE peptide has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:3, wherein upon the delivering into the cell of the subject, the nucleic acid expression construct initiates expression of the GNE peptide or a therapeutically active fragment thereof. Also disclosed are methods of producing a GNE peptide in a cell comprising infecting the cell with an isolated nucleic acid construct that comprises a promoter operatively linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a GNE peptide or a therapeutically active fragment thereof, wherein the GNE peptide has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:3.
