Problems solved by technology

However, in transgenic research, it has been found that the insecticidal protein gene derived from Bt is directly transferred into plants, and there are defects of unstable expression products and low expression levels (vanAarssen, et al, 1995, Plant Mol Biol, 28: 513-524 )
Specific problems include: 1) the natural Bt gene contains high AT, more than 60%, and the mRNA expressed by such a gene in the plant is very easy to be degraded by the plant; 2) there are intron cut points similar to eukaryotic genes in the natural Bt gene, Transcription terminator sequence, resulting in incomplete transcription, abnormal splicing of mRNA, etc.; 3) The codons used in natural Bt genes are quite different from those in plants, which will reduce the efficiency of protein translation; 4) Natural Bt genes are used as prokaryotic sources The structure of the gene is significantly different from that of plants and other eukaryotes, such as eukaryotes containing 5'-UTR sequence and polyA tail sequence at the 3' end

Embodiment 1

[0081] Example 1 Transformation and synthesis of cry1Ah gene for common plant transformation

[0082] According to the amino acid sequence (SEQ NO.1) of the cry1Ah gene (Chinese patent, patent number: 200410009918.9), the present invention first adopts plant optimized codons to pair the 1-2001bp sequence (SEQ NO. NO.2) Carry out artificial optimization and transformation. The rare plant codons were avoided as far as possible, and the codon usage frequency was adjusted (Table 1), so that the codon usage frequency of Cry1Ah protein was close to the usage frequency in plants (Table 1). On this basis, the typical AT-rich sequences that cause instability of plant gene transcripts in the DNA sequence were removed, and the hairpin structure and common restriction enzyme sites were removed, in order to form a In NcoI (CCATGG), an amino acid (glycine, GGA) was added after the first start codon, and the nucleotide sequence obtained was SEQ NO.3. The homology between this sequence and ...

Embodiment 2

[0087] Embodiment 2, transformation and synthesis of the cry1Ah gene for rice transformation

[0088] According to the codon bias of the rice gene, the present invention optimizes the codon for plants on the mcry1Ah gene. According to the amino acid sequence (SEQ NO.3) of the mcry1Ah gene, under the premise of ensuring that the amino acid sequence remains unchanged, the rice biased codons were used to artificially optimize and transform SEQ NO.3. The codon usage frequency was adjusted so that the codon usage frequency of the Cry1Ah protein was close to that of the rice gene. Finally, it was determined that the nucleotide sequence of the further modified mcry1Ah gene, that is, the mrcry1Ah gene, was shown in SEQ ID NO.7. For the convenience of subsequent gene manipulation, BamHI sites were added on both sides of the artificially synthesized gene. Finally, the nucleotide sequence of the further modified mcry1Ah gene, namely the mrcry1Ah gene, was determined, as shown in SEQ NO....

Embodiment 3

[0093] Embodiment 3, expression of mcry1Ah gene and mrcry1Ah gene in Escherichia coli

[0094] Using the pTeasy-mcry1Ah plasmid as a template, a 2Kb PCR product was amplified with specific primers, recovered and purified, digested with BamHI and Sal I, and treated with the same pET-21b plasmid (commonly used plasmids, which can induce expression in Escherichia coli). Source gene, which can be purchased at Novagen Company) was connected, transformed into E.coli JM110, and identified by restriction analysis and PCR ( Figure 7 ), screen out positive recombinants, and name the obtained recombinant expression vector plasmid pET-1Ahp.

[0095] The recombinant plasmid pET-1Ahp was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21, 150rpm, 18°C ​​to induce the expression of the target protein, sonicated, centrifuged, and the supernatant and precipitate were respectively taken for SDS-PAGE (8%) analysis ( Figure 8 ). The mcry1Ah gene can be expressed in E. coli.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a gene sequence of an artificially synthesized protein expressing high toxicity to Lepidoptera pests and an application thereof in the field of plant protection, which belongs to the technical field of biological control. The gene sequence of the artificially synthesized protein expressing high toxicity to Lepidoptera pests is characterized in that a coding area is provided with a nucleotide sequence which is 81 percent similar to cryIAh gene and can encode the same amino acid sequence as the cryIAh gene does. The present invention adjusts the nucleotide composition of the cryIAh gene, so that the cryIAh gene can approach the codon usage frequency of plant genes but does not change the encoded amino acid sequence; by building the gene sequence obtained by the present invention into an appropriate backbone vector and converting a receptor plant, the gene sequence can be expressed in the plant; the result of a test shows that because of expressing the gene, a positive plant acquires resistibility to Lepidoptera pests.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biological control, in particular to an artificially synthesized gene sequence for expressing highly toxic proteins to lepidopteran pests and its application. Background technique [0002] Insect pests are an important factor in the reduction of crop production in the world. On average, 10% of the total grain output is lost every year, and the direct economic loss amounts to billions of dollars. The planting areas of rice, corn and cotton in my country are 28.37 million, 25.44 million and 5.69 million hectares respectively (2006, China Agricultural Information Network). The main pests are rice borer, corn borer and cotton bollworm, which seriously threaten these important food crops. and safe production of cash crops. In the past few decades, the control has mainly relied on chemical pesticides. While making great contributions to agricultural production, chemical pesticides have caused serious consequenc...
