Abstract

The invention relates to a wolfberry lycopene epsilon-cyclase gene and a recombinant vector comprising the gene. The gene is selected from one of the following nucleotide sequences: 1) a nucleotide sequence shown in a sequence SEQ ID NO.1; and 2) a homologous sequence or an allelic gene thereof and a derivative nucleotide sequence thereof in which 70% of one or more nucleotides are added, replaced, inserted or deleted in the nucleotide sequence shown in the sequence SEQ ID NO. 1. By extracting the total RNA of fresh wolfberry leaves, a wolfberry lycopene epsilon-cyclase gene Lm LcyE is cloned by using a 3'RACE technology, and an obtained complete genome sequence is 1569. An escherichia coli expression vector pET28a-LmLcyE is constructed, the enzymatic activity of cloned wolfberry isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase gene Lm LcyE encoding is identified by using an escherichia coli heterologous expression system, and the wolfberry lycopene epsilon-cyclase gene Lm LcyE can catalyze lycopene for cyclizing the lycopene into delta carotene, so that metabolism flows downstream, thereby improving the content of alpha-carotenoid.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a Lycium barbarum lycopene ε-cyclase gene and a recombinant vector containing the gene, [0002] Specifically, wolfberry ( LyciumchinenseMiller ) Lycopene ε-cyclase gene Lm Clone of LcyE. Background technique [0003] The cyclization reaction of lycopene is an important branch point of carotene biosynthesis pathway in plants. Lycopeneε-cyclase (LcyE) can catalyze the formation of a δ-ring at one end of lycopene to generate δ-carotene. [0004] Carotenoids are C 40 Hydrocarbons, fat-soluble pigments widely found in plants, some photosynthetic bacteria and algae, mainly include carotenes (carotenes) and their oxidized derivatives xanthophylls (xanthophylls) two categories. Carotenoids play a vital role in plant photosynthesis. They are an indispensable structural component of the photosynthetic antenna and photoreaction center complex. They can also protect chlorophyll from photooxidation caused by strong light. Carotenoids are the pr...
