[0028] Example 1 Expression of Deinococcus radiodurans Dr2473 gene sequence in Escherichia coli

[0029] 1. Experimental method

[0030] 1. Design a pair of PCR-specific primers based on the published Dr2473 gene sequence in the Deinococcus radioduran genome:

[0031] 0395-F: 5′ ACCACTAGT ATGCTTTCCTCTCTGCACGATTTGCCC 3′

[0032] 0395-R: 5′ACCCATATG CTAGCGCCGCTCCACGACCA 3′

[0033] 2. Amplify the target gene sequence from the genomic DNA of Deinococcus radiodurans by PCR method.

[0034] Reaction conditions: 94°C for 10min, [94°C for 30sec, 60°C for 30sec, 72°C for 1.5min] 35 cycles, 72°C for 10min.

[0035] 3. After the PCR product was recovered by gel, it was cloned on the vector pJET, named pJET-2473, and verified by sequencing; then the Dr2473 gene containing cohesive ends and the pRADZ3 vector containing the groEL promoter were obtained by SpeI / NdeI double digestion. The Dr2473 gene was connected to the pRADZ3 vector to construct the Escherichia coli expression vector p...

[0040] 1. Experimental materials

[0041] Recombinant engineering strain: the JM-2473 strain containing the Dr2473 gene obtained in Example 1

[0042] Control strain: the JM-Z3 strain containing the empty plasmid described in Example 1.

[0043] 2. Experimental method

[0044] 1. Streak activation of the control strain and the recombinant engineering strain on the LB solid medium plate;

[0045] 2. Pick a single colony and inoculate it in liquid LB medium supplemented with corresponding antibiotics, and cultivate it at 37°C until the middle and late stages of the index;

[0046] 3. Add carotenoid substrate compounds to the culture medium, and continue culturing at 37° C. for 24 hours.

[0047] 4. Centrifuge for 10 minutes; discard the supernatant and collect the bacteria. Avoid light as much as possible during operation.

[0048] 5. Add 3 m...

Abstract

The invention discovers a gene with a hydroxylase function discovered from deinococcus radiodurans. The invention constructs a recombinant vector containing the gene, and the recombinant vector is expressed in prokaryotic host cell Escherichia coli. An experiment proves that after the gene is expressed in the prokaryotic host cell, carotenoid can be catalyzed to perform hydroxylation reaction. The gene can be used in the catalytic synthesis of the microorganisms.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microbes, and relates to a novel gene that functions as a hydroxylase in the synthesis process of carotenoid secondary metabolites. Background technique [0002] Secondary metabolites are small molecular organic compounds that are not necessary for the growth and development of cell life activities, which are produced by secondary metabolism and whose precursors are primary metabolites. Microbial secondary metabolites are widely used in medicine and agricultural production due to their diversity in structure and activity. [0003] Carotenoids are a class of secondary metabolites that are mainly synthesized by plants or microorganisms. They have antioxidant activity and perform functions in organisms such as quenching singlet oxygen, scavenging free radicals, and preventing lipid peroxidation. Carotenoids are used as active ingredients in food pigments, feed additives and pharmaceutical cosmetics because ...
