Embodiment 1

[0051] Construct the integrated plasmid pOPHI, see the construction procedure Figure 1~3 , for a map of plasmid pOPHI see Figure 5 . Such as Figure 5 As shown, the plasmid pOPHI contains a strong mycobacterial promoter ( Hsp60 ), the enzyme gene required for luminescence ( LuxCDABE ), the integrase gene ( Int ) and hygromycin resistance gene ( Hyg ) of the fusion gene, the direct repeat sequence located at both ends of the fusion gene DifR and Dif L , the phage integration site ( attP ), and the ampicillin resistance gene ( Ampr ) and replicators ( rep ). The functions of each component are as follows:

[0052] Hsp60 : A mycobacterial strong promoter, which can promote the strong expression of subsequent genes.

[0053] LuxCDABE : Enzyme gene required for luminescence, the expression of this gene allows the host bacteria to emit light autonomously [5] .

[0054] Integrase gene ( Int ): Integrase can be expressed to integrate the plasmid into the...

Abstract

The invention discloses an integrative plasmid pOPHI and a resistance screening marker-free self-luminescent mycobacterium. The integrative plasmid pOPHI comprises a promoter, an enzyme gene (LuxCDABE) needed for luminescence, a fusion gene of an integrase gene (Int) and a resistance screening gene, direct repeat sequences DifR and DifL positioned on two ends of the fusion gene, a phage integration site (attP) and a replicon. After the integrative plasmid pOPHI is transferred into the mycobacteria, a photobacterium of which the resistance gene and the integrase gene are lost is screened out by subculturing, and the photobacterium is the resistance screening marker-free self-luminescent mycobacterium. Whether the resistance screening marker-free self-luminescent mycobacterium obtained by construction is dead or not is judged according to whether the bacterium is luminescent or not, the mycobacterium can be used for a plurality of detections of experiments, and credible experimental data can be quickly obtained.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention is a genetic engineering field, which involves an autonomous luminescence bangs that integrate the plasmid POPHI, and a kind of non -resistant screening label. Background technique [0002] The mycobacterium is a type of slender and slightly curved microorganisms, sometimes branches or silk.At present, the belonging to the branch of branches has been summarized in the mobiliae.Plasses that are pathogenic can be divided into two categories: and without branch bacteria.Bacteria is contained in branches. [0003] The main characteristic of this genus bacteria is that the cell wall contains a large amount of lipids, mainly branched bacteria.This is closely related to its dyeing, growth characteristics, pathogenicity, and resistance.Generally, it is not easy to color. If it is heated or extended the dyeing time, it can resist the decolorization of ethanol hydrochloride hydrochloride hydrochloride, so it is also known as Acid-Fast Bacilli.Th...
