Problems solved by technology

At present, only the [2Fe2S] type ferredoxin from spinach is commercially sold. However, due to species differences, this ferredoxin shows different efficiencies when analyzing enzymes from other species, and the protein is very expensive , which largely limits the application of ferredoxin and scientists' research on ferredoxin-related enzymes and metabolic processes
[0003] In the existing literature reports, most ferredoxins are purified from wild bacteria and other organisms, and are also prepared by heterologous expression, but these methods have many shortcomings, such as consuming a lot of time and cumbersome purification steps , low expression, incomplete iron-sulfur cluster assembly of ferredoxin and low activity, low final yield and purity, etc.
Based on this, the research and development of a method capable of efficiently expressing 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin has become an urgent problem to be solved. After searching, the recombinant Escherichia coli capable of efficiently expressing 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin and its production in fermentation The application of 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin has not been reported

Embodiment 1

[0034] Example 1: Construction of recombinant Escherichia coli that highly expresses 2[4Fe4S]-type ferredoxin in C.pasteurianumDSM525

[0035] Take C.pasteurianumDSM525 cells, and extract genomic DNA from C.pasteurianumDSM525 cells according to the method recommended by the bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit. According to the known 2[4Fe4S] type ferredoxin gene sequence in the genome of Clostridium pasteurianum (C.pasteurianum) DSM525 as shown in SEQ ID NO.1, the primers were designed as follows:

[0036] F Primer: 5'GACGACGACAAGATGGCATATAAAATCGCTGATTCATGTG3'

[0037] R primer: 5'GAGGAGAAGCCCGGTTATTCTTGTACTGGTGCTCCAACTGGA3'

[0038] Using the extracted C. pasteurianum DSM525 genomic DNA as a template, KOD hot-start DNA polymerase was used for PCR amplification to obtain 2[4Fe4S]-type ferredoxin gene. The PCR reaction system is as follows:

[0039]

[0040] The PCR reaction conditions are:

[0041] 95℃5min

[0042] 95°C for 30s, 55°C for 30s, 72°C for 30s and 30 cycles ...

[0056] Example 3: Separation, purification and activity determination of 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin.

[0057] The purification of protein was carried out in an anaerobic operation box, and all solutions used were degassed and anaerobic treated after boiling.

[0058] Prepare the buffer required for purification: buffer A: Tris-HCl100mM, NaCl150mM, DTT2mM, pH7.5; buffer B: sodium phosphate Tris-HCl100mM, NaCl150mM, DTT2mM, desthiobiotin2.5mM, pH7.5; buffer W: Sodium phosphate 50mM, pH7.0.

Abstract

The invention discloses a recombinant Escherichia coli. The strain contains a 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin gene with a nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO.1, and is named as Escherichia coli pCodonPlus / pRKISC / pET51b-2[4Fe4S]Fd which is obtained by the steps of connecting the 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin gene into a pET51b carrier to prepare a recombinant plasmid named as pET51b-2[4Fe4S], and transferring the prepared recombinant plasmid to E.coli C41(DE3) containing pCodonPlus and pRKISC plasmids. The invention also discloses application of the recombinant Escherichia coli to fermentative production of 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin. Experiments prove that each litre of fermented cultures can be used for generating 3.5mg of purified 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin, and the yield is far higher than 0.5mg of 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin purified from wild bacteria, and therefore, the recombinant Escherichia coli disclosed by the invention has a favorable application prospect in industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to gene recombination engineering bacteria and its application, in particular to a recombinant Escherichia coli containing 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin gene and its application in fermentative production of 2[4Fe4S]ferredoxin. Background technique [0002] Ferredoxin is a kind of acidic protein containing iron-sulfur clusters, and the iron-sulfur clusters are mainly divided into [4Fe4S], [2Fe2S], [3Fe4S] and other types. As a common electron carrier, ferredoxin participates in important metabolic processes such as respiration, photosynthesis, and fermentation. At present, only the [2Fe2S] type ferredoxin from spinach is sold commercially. However, due to species differences, this ferredoxin shows different efficiencies when analyzing enzymes from other species, and the protein is very expensive , which largely limits the application of ferredoxin and scientists' research on ferredoxin-related enzymes and metabolic processes. [0003] In t...
