Embodiment 1

[0025] The cloning of embodiment 1CrBbox

[0026] 1) Total RNA extraction from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

[0027] Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii) strain CC425, cultivated in a light incubator at 24°C, 100 μmolm -2 sec -1 Under the condition of white light and full light, after growing to the logarithmic growth phase, take 50mL of the algae liquid, centrifuge at 10000r / min for 1min to collect the algae, freeze them in liquid nitrogen, grind them into powder, and extract the total RNA according to the method of Trizol;

[0028] 2) Primer design

[0029] According to the CrBbox gene published on the DOE JGI Chlamydomonas database as a template, the following specific primers were designed for PCR amplification:

[0030] CrBbox full-length amplification primer Primer sequence (5'→3')

[0031] Forward primer ATGTCGAGTTGCGTCGTGTGCG

[0032] Reverse Primer TTAGCACTCAGCGTCCAGGACCTCG

[0033] 3) Synthesis of cDNA

[0034] According to Takara's kit provided ...

Embodiment 2

[0043] Example 2 The transformant obtained by overexpressing the CrBbox gene

[0044] 1) Construction of plant expression vectors

[0045]Primers with Bgl II and Spe I restriction sites were designed (forward: 5'-AAAGATCTAATGTCGAGTTGCGTCGTGTG-3'; reverse: 5'-AAACTAGTTTAGCACTCAGCGTCCAGGA-3'), and the full-length CrBbox gene was amplified by PCR. The CrBbox product modified by BglII and SpeI double digestion was ligated with the large fragment of the BGlII and SpeI double digestion vector of pCAMBIA1302. The ligation product was transformed into Escherichia coli DH5α, the positive clone was identified by PCR, and the plasmid was extracted for double enzyme digestion identification. The correct recombinant expression plasmid pCAMBIA1302-CrBbox was extracted for transformation.

[0046] 2) Acquisition of overexpressed CrBbox Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transformants (electrotransformation method)

[0047] Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (algae strain CC425, purchased from the Institute...

Embodiment 3

[0051] Example 3 Physiological Phenotype Observation of CrBbox Overexpression Algae Strain

[0052] 100 algae strains were selected from the pCMBIA1302 empty vector group, CrBbox overexpression group, and original algae strain CC425, and cultured in a light incubator at 24°C with 100 μmol m -2 sec -1 White light, under full light conditions, wait until the logarithmic growth phase, 2000rpm, centrifuge for 5min, resuspend in double distilled water, inoculate HSM-N liquid medium (2g / LNaAc 3H 2 O+1.44g / L K 2 HPO 4 +0.72g / L KH 2 PO 4 +0.5467g / L NaCl+20mg / LMgSO 4 ·7H 2 O+10mg / LCaCl 2 2H 2 O+1ml / L Trace-N), continuous shaking culture for 6 days. The following physiological values ​​were measured every 24h.

[0053] 1) Biomass statistics

[0054] Biomass was calculated using a haemocytometer as described by Harris, 1989. The results showed that there was no significant difference in biomass between the strains overexpressing CrBbox gene and the non-transgenic strain CrCC4...

Abstract

The invention discloses a regulatory gene for synthesizing microalgae triacylglycerol as well as an encoded protein and an application thereof. The gene is originated from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and has one of the following nucleotide sequences: 1) a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1 in a sequence table; 2) polynucleotide which encodes a protein sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2 in the sequence table; 3) a DNA sequence which has over 90% homology with the DNA sequence limited by SEQ IN DO:1 in the sequence table and encodes the same functional protein as the DNA sequence limited by SEQ IN DO:1. The encoded protein of the gene is the protein with an amino acid residue sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2 in the sequence table, ID of the protein is 159133 and the protein consists of 410 amino acid residues. The CrBbox gene can be applied to changing the content of neutral lipids in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and can also be applied to cultivating novel algae strains with high lipid content.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gene capable of significantly changing the neutral lipid content of microalgae, in particular to a regulatory gene capable of significantly changing the neutral lipid content of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and its application. Background technique [0002] In the 21st century, with the rapid economic development, human consumption of fossil fuels such as petroleum is increasing day by day, and the use of fossil fuels has brought about serious environmental pollution problems. All countries in the world are looking for safe renewable energy. Bioenergy can indirectly or directly use the photosynthesis of plants or microorganisms to fix solar energy into chemical energy, which is the first choice for renewable energy. Biodiesel and fuel ethanol are currently bioenergy that can enter the market as gasoline additives. The composition of biodiesel is closer to gasoline, and it has a wide range of sources and low cost. It is one of th...
