[0023] DNA preparation and transformation:

[0024] DNA was isolated from E. coli and B. subtilis or from agarose gels using DNA preparation kits from Tiangen or Omega according to the manufacturer's instructions. Standard molecular techniques were used in all examples. E. coli was transformed using plasmid DNA as described by Chung C.T. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86, 1989, 21722175. According to a modified "Paris method" (Harwood C.R. Molecular Biological Methods for Bacillus, 1990, John Wiley & Sons Ltd., England), plasmid DNA or DNA fragments were used to transform Bacillus subtilis.

[0025] Determination of green fluorescent protein fluorescence intensity RFU:

[0026] Centrifuge at 4°C and 4000rpm for 10 minutes to collect the bacterial cells cultured to an OD600 of about 0.6-0.8, wash the bacterial cells twice with pre-cooled PBS solution, and transfer 150 μL to a 96-well black-bottomed microtiter plate (Corning , USA), placed in a microplate SpectraMax M2 mi...

[0035] Example 1 Construction of a pDG vector that lacks the promoter sequence and carries the green fluorescent protein GFP.

[0036] Using the integrated plasmid pDL (BGSC, USA) commonly used in Bacillus subtilis as the backbone, the bgaB gene on the pDL plasmid was replaced by the CPEC PCR cloning method (Nature Protocols, 6, 242–251, 2011, doi: 10.1038 / nprot.2010.181) For the GFP gene, the specific method is to design primers pDG-vector.for / pDG-vector.rev on the upstream and downstream of the bgaB gene of the pDL plasmid to amplify the pDL plasmid by reverse PCR, and simultaneously design primers gfp-insert.for / gfp-insert. rev PCR amplifies the gfp gene from the pSG1729 plasmid (BGSC, USA), wherein the 5' ends of the gfp-insert.for / gfp-insert.rev primers have 20 bp homologous sequences on both sides of the insertion site of the pDL plasmid. After the amplified gfp insert fragment and pDL vector fragment were cut and recovered, they were added to the PCR system at a molar r...

[0037] Example 2 Isolation and identification of the MalA promoter derived from the maltose operon of Bacillus subtilis.

[0038] (1) Isolation of the MalA promoter from the maltose operon of Bacillus subtilis.

[0039] Chromosomal DNA of Bacillus subtilis 1A751 was isolated and extracted using Tiangen Bacterial Chromosome Extraction Kit (Beijing, China). Using primers Pglv.for / Pglv.rev, a DNA fragment of about 340 bp between yfiA and MalA genes was obtained by PCR amplification from the chromosomal DNA of Bacillus subtilis 1A751. This fragment was cloned at the upstream of the pDG plasmid green fluorescent protein GFP gene through the BanHI / KpnI site, and the pDG plasmid carrying the maltose operon MalA promoter derived from Bacillus subtilis was obtained, named pDG-G1.

Abstract

The invention discloses a maltose promoter-containing carrier and a maltose promoter mutant. The invention establishes a novel carrier which can be expressed in a prokaryotic host, a nucleic acid sequence containing an inducible promoter of a maltose operon in bacillus subtilis, and mutant sequences of the nucleic acid sequence, wherein the carrier and the nucleic acid sequence are respectively applied to transformation of host cells so as to express exogenic nucleic acid sequences of encoded polypeptides.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vector expressible in prokaryotic host cells comprising a maltose inducible promoter for heterologous expression of nucleic acids encoding eg polypeptides, recombinant proteins. In particular, the present invention relates to novel vectors for heterologous expression in a host comprising the promoter region of the maltose operon operably linked to a transcription unit comprising, for said host, A heterologous nucleic acid sequence whose expression is controlled by the promoter region of the maltose operon. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of these vectors for heterologous encoding and expression of nucleic acids such as polypeptides, recombinant proteins. Background technique [0002] The heterologous expression and production of polypeptides and recombinant proteins is of great significance in protein engineering. The large-scale production of polypeptides and recombinant proteins using prokaryo...
