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 methods capable of efficiently expressing [2Fe2S] ferredoxin has become an urgent problem to be solved. After searching, there are related recombinant Escherichia coli that can efficiently express [2Fe2S] ferredoxin and its production of [2Fe2S ] The application of ferredoxin has not been reported yet

Embodiment 1

[0034] Example 1: Construction of recombinant Escherichia coli expressing the [2Fe2S] ferredoxin in C. pasteurianum DSM525

[0035] Take C.pasteurianumDSM525 cells and extract genomic DNA from C.pasteurianumDSM525 cells according to the recommended method of bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit. According to the known [2Fe2S] ferredoxin gene sequence in the DSM525 genome of C. pasteurianum (C. pasteurianum) as shown in SEQ ID NO. 1, the primers are designed as follows:

[0036] F primer: 5'CGCGGATCCGATGGTAAACCCAAAACAC3'

[0037] R primer: 5'CCCAAGCTTAATTTGAAGTCTTTTAAC3'

[0038] Using the extracted C. pasteurianum DSM525 genomic DNA as a template, PCR amplification was performed to obtain the [2Fe2S] type ferredoxin gene. The PCR reaction system is as follows:

Abstract

The invention discloses recombinant Escherichia coli with efficiently expressed [2Fe2S] ferredoxin. The recombinant Escherichia coli is named as Escherichia coli pCodonPlus / pRKISC / pETDuet-[2Fe2S]Fd and contains [2Fe2S] ferredoxin genes. Nucleotide sequences of the recombinant Escherichia coli are shown as SEQ ID NO.1. The [2Fe2S] ferredoxin genes are connected into pETDuet-1 carriers to obtain recombinant plasmids of the recombinant Escherichia coli, and the obtained recombinant plasmids are named as pETDuet-[2Fe2S] and are transferred into E.coli C41(DE3) with pCodonPlus and pRKISC plasmids to obtain the recombinant Escherichia coli. The invention further discloses application of the recombinant Escherichia coli to fermenting and producing the [2Fe2S] ferredoxin. The recombinant Escherichia coli and the application have the advantages that as proved by experiments, 40 mg of purified [2Fe2S] ferredoxin can be ultimately obtained from each liter of fermentation culture, the yield of the purified [2Fe2S] ferredoxin is far higher than previously reported 2mg yield of [2Fe2S] ferredoxin expressed in existing recombinant Escherichia coli and 0.2mg yield of [2Fe2S] ferredoxin purified from wild fungi, and the recombinant Escherichia coli is predicted to have an excellent application prospect in industrial production.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to genetic recombination engineering bacteria and applications thereof, in particular to a recombinant Escherichia coli expressing [2Fe2S] ferredoxin and applications thereof. Background technique [0002] Ferredoxin is a type of acidic protein containing iron-sulfur clusters. 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. Currently, only [2Fe2S] ferredoxin from spinach is commercially available. However, due to species differences, this ferredoxin shows different efficiency when analyzing enzymes from other species, and the protein is very expensive This 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 ...
