Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although various approaches have been employed to increase protease production, including screening for high-producing strains, cloning and overexpressing proteases, improving fed-batch and chemostat fermentations, and optimizing fermentation techniques, additional means are still needed to increase protease production. protease production

Embodiment 1

[0132] Construction of Targeted ISD (Insertion Substitution Deletion) Library

[0133] The method (ISD method) used to construct a library of modified FNA polynucleotides is shown in FIG. 2 . Using two sets of oligonucleotides that evenly cover the sequence of the FNA gene encoding the prepro region (SEQ ID NO: 7) of the full-length protein (SEQ ID NO: 1) of 392 amino acids in forward and reverse directions, the encoding Left and right fragments of the FNA gene portion of the prepro region of FNA. Both PCR reactions (left and right fragments) contained 5'forward or 3'reverse gene sequence flanking oligonucleotides, each oligonucleotide combined with the corresponding opposing primer oligonucleotide. The fragment on the left was amplified using a single forward primer (P3233, TTATTGTCTCATGAGCGGATAC; SEQ ID NO: 123) containing an EcoRI site and reverse primers P3301r-P3404r (SEQ ID NOS: 124-227; Table 1) each containing an Eam104I site . A single reverse primer containing a M...

[0170] Generation of mutated prepro polypeptides comprising combinations of mutations by ISD

[0171] To determine the effect of combining at least 2 mutations in the prepro FNA sequence, the combinations of mutations listed in Table 3 were generated as follows.

[0172] Using the pAC-FNA10 plasmid DNA containing the mutations in Table 3 as a template, extension PCR was performed to add another mutation also selected from the mutations described in Table 3. Two PCR reactions (left and right fragments) contained 5'forward or 3'reverse gene sequence flanking oligonucleotides, each combined with a corresponding opposing primer oligonucleotide. A single forward primer (P3234, ACCCAACTGATCTTCAGCATC; SEQ ID NO: 411 ) and a reverse primer for the specific mutations shown in Table 4 were used to amplify the fragment on the left. The right fragment was amplified using a single reverse primer (P3242, ACCGTCAGCACCGAGAACTT; SEQ ID NO: 412) and a forward primer for the specific mutations ...

Embodiment 3

[0193] Site evaluation libraries (SELs) were constructed to generate position libraries at each position comprising the first 103 amino acid positions of the FNA prepro region. Site saturation mutagenesis of the prepro sequence of the full-length FNA protease was performed to identify amino acid substitutions that increase FNA production by bacterial host cells.

[0194] SEL library construction

[0195] Prepro-FNA SELs were generated using DNA 2.0 (Menlo Park, CA) using technology platforms for gene optimization, gene synthesis, and library construction under proprietary DNA 2.0 know-how and / or intellectual property. 将包含全长FNA多核苷酸(GTGAGAAGCAAAAAATTGTGGATCAGTTTGCTGTTTGCTTTAGCGTTAATCTTTACGATGGCGTTCGGCAGCACATCCAGCGCGCAGGCGGCAGGGAAATCAAACGGGGAAAAGAAATATATTGTCGGGTTTAAACAGACAATGAGCACGATGAGCGCCGCTAAGAAGAAAGATGTCATTTCTGAAAAAGGCGGGAAAGTGCAAAAGCAATTCAAATATGTAGACGCAGCTTCAGCTACATTAAACGAAAAAGCTGTAAAAGAATTGAAAAAAGACCCGAGCGTCGCTTACGTTGAAGAAGATCACGTAGCACACGCGTACGCGCAGTCCGTGCCTTACGGCGTATCACAAAT...

Abstract

The invention relates to modified polynucleotides encoding modified proteases, and methods for altering the production of proteases in microorganisms. In particular, the modified polynucleotides comprise one or more mutations that encode modified proteases having modifications of the pre-pro region that enhance the production of the active enzyme. The present invention further relates to methods for altering the production of proteases in microorganisms, such as Bacillus species.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to modified polynucleotides encoding modified proteases, and the present invention also relates to methods for altering the production of proteases in microorganisms. In particular, the modified polynucleotide comprises one or more mutations encoding a modified protease having an altered pre-pro region that enhances the production of the active enzyme. The invention also relates to methods for altering the production of proteases in microorganisms such as Bacillus species. Background technique [0002] Proteases of bacterial origin are important industrial enzymes, accounting for the majority of all enzyme sales, in a variety of industries including detergents, meat tenderization, cheese making, dehairing, baking, brewing, production of digestive aids, and from Photographic film recycling silver) is widely used. The use of these enzymes as detergent additives facilitated their commercial development and led to a substant...
