Glycoproteins, in which polysaccharides are usually attached to proteins, are an important class of biomolecules that are widely used as therapeutic agents in clinical treatments for decades. UropathogenicEscherichia coli(UPEC) O21 has been identified as a serogroup that induces urinary tract infections, with a global increasing number among women and young children. Therefore, there is an urgent need to establish protective vaccines against UPEC infection. Herein, we engineered non-pathogenicE. coliMG1655 to achieve robust, cost-effectivede novobiosynthesis of O21 O-antigen polysaccharide-based glycoprotein against UPEC O21. Specifically, this glycoengineeredE. coliMG1655 was manipulated for high-efficient glucose-glycerol co-utilization and for the gene cluster installation andO-glycosylation machinery assembly. The key pathways of UDP-sugar precursors were also strengthened to enforce more carbon flux towards the glycosyl donors, which enhanced the glycoprotein titer by 5.6-fold. Further optimization of culture conditions yielded glycoproteins of up to 35.34 mg/L. Glycopeptide MS confirmed the preciset biosynthesis of glycoprotein. This glycoprotein elicited antigen-specific IgG immune responses and significantly reduced kidney and bladder colonization. This bacterial cell-based glyco-platform and optimized strategies can provide a guideline for the biosynthesis of other value-added glycoproteins.
