[0102] Embodiment 2. Construction of fusion reporter gene pars-arsR-gfpmut2

[0103] 2.1 Primer information and synthesis

[0104] According to the target gene pars and arsR sequences published by GenBank and the known gfpmut2 gene sequence, use the Primer5.0 software to design primers (see Table 5), and some primers introduce restriction sites at the 5' end or 3' end of the gene. Pars-arsR gene 5′ end primer (P 3 : pars-arsR-F) and 3' end primer (P 4 :pars-arsR-R), make P 4 with P 5 Complementary sequences exist between, P 5 (gfpmut2-F) and P 6 (gfpmut2-R) is a pair of primers for amplifying the gfpmut2 gene, and M13F and M13R are primers for identifying the pars-arsR-gfpmut2 fragment on the pMD19-T vector. Design the inner primers (P 7 : araB-Ni and P 8 : araB-Ci) and outer primer (P 9 :araB-No and P 10 : araB-Co), gene knockout two outer primers unchanged, P 7 with P 8 A pair of gene primers for amplifying pars-arsR-gfpmut2, P 11 with P 12 A pair of gene prime...

Abstract

The invention relates to a microorganism method for detecting metallic-arsenic-like in water, in particular to an escherichia coli report bacterial strain culturing method improved through genetic engineering, and an escherichia coli culturing method for detecting arsenic in water. The detection bacterial strain is obtained by adopting a Red recombination system to knockout arsenic resistant arsB genes of wild type escherichia coli MC4100, and then adopting the gene knockin technology to substitute pars-arsR-gfpmut2 report genes to the positions of araB coding genes. The biological detection bacterial strain is named as E.coli WMC-011p. The lowest arsenic detection range meets the Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard of GB8978-1996. The bacterial strain overcomes the shortcomings of high fluorescence background value, unstable detection signals, inaccurate results and the like of a biological detection bacterial strain based on a plasmid vector, and has the advantages of high specificity, high sensitivity, low cost and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microbiological method for detecting metalloid arsenic in water body, in particular to a method for constructing a reporter strain of Escherichia coli transformed by genetic engineering, and a method for establishing the same for detecting metalloid arsenic in water body environment. Background technique [0002] Arsenic is a non-metallic element widely distributed in nature. The content in the earth's crust is about 2 to 5 mg / kg, which is the 20th element that constitutes the earth's crust. Metalloid arsenic is classified as a Class I human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Twenty-one countries in different parts of the world have been affected by arsenic pollution. The largest risk group is from Bangladesh, followed by West Bengal in India. China is also one of the countries with the most serious arsenic hazards. Metal-like arsenic pollution in water bodies has been manifested as public...
