CHO cells have been recently shown to produce amino acid catabolism derived byproducts, which accumulate in fed-batch cultures to growth-inhibitory levels. Residual amino acid limitation or genetic engineering strategies have been successfully employed to suppress production of these novel growth inhibitory metabolic byproducts. However, the growth advantage attained due to suppression of these metabolic byproducts in fed-batch cultures is more pronounced when lactate accumulation is also controlled. BCAT1 knock-out (KO) CHO cells, which produce negligible levels of the metabolic byproducts isovalerate, isobutyrate and 2-methylbutyrate, grow to significantly higher peak cell densities in fed-batch cultures with lactate control (HiPDOG) as compared to cultures without lactate control. Henceforth, strategies involving novel metabolic byproduct control should preferably include lactate control to more easily assess the enhanced cell growth and productivities attainable.

ABSTRACT Amylovorin L471 is a small, heat-stable, and hydrophobic bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus amylovorus DCE 471. The nutritional requirements for amylovorin L471 production were studied with fed-batch fermentations. A twofold increase in bacteriocin titer was obtained when substrate addition was controlled by the acidification rate of the culture, compared with the titers reached with constant substrate addition or pH-controlled batch cultures carried out under the same conditions. An interesting feature of fed-batch cultures observed under certain culture conditions (constant feed rate) is the apparent stabilization of bacteriocin activity after obtaining maximum production. Finally, a mathematical model was set up to simulate cell growth, glucose and complex nitrogen source consumption, and lactic acid and bacteriocin production kinetics. The model showed that bacterial growth was dependent on both the energy and the complex nitrogen source. Bacteriocin production was growth associated, with a simultaneous bacteriocin adsorption on the producer cells dependent on the lactic acid accumulated and hence the viability of the cells. Both bacteriocin production and adsorption were inhibited by high concentrations of the complex nitrogen source.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in fed-batch cultures produce several metabolic byproducts derived from amino acid catabolism, some of which accumulate to growth inhibitory levels. Controlling the accumulation of these byproducts has been shown to significantly enhance cell proliferation. Interestingly, some of these byproducts have physiological roles that go beyond inhibition of cell proliferation. In this study, we show that, in CHO cell fed-batch cultures, branched chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolism contributes to the formation of butyrate, a novel byproduct that is also a well-established specific productivity enhancer. Further, the other byproducts of BCAA catabolism, isovalerate and isobutyrate, which accumulate in CHO cell fed-batch cultures also enhance specific productivity. Additionally, the rate of production of these BCAA catabolic byproducts was negatively correlated with glucose uptake and lactate production rates. Limiting glucose supply to suppress glucose uptake and lactate production, like in case of fed-batch cultures employing HiPDOG technology, significantly enhances BCAA catabolic byproduct accumulation resulting in higher specific productivities.
