Embodiment 1

[0033] Embodiment 1, the cloning of conch synthase (littorine synthase, LS) gene

[0034] (1) Extraction of total RNA from belladonna fibrous root

[0035] Take an appropriate amount of belladonna fibrous root tissue, grind it in liquid nitrogen, add it to a 1.5mL Eppendorf (EP) centrifuge tube filled with lysate, shake it fully, and extract total RNA according to the instructions of the TIANGEN kit. The quality of total RNA was identified by formaldehyde denaturing gel electrophoresis, and the RNA concentration was determined on a spectrophotometer.

[0036] (2) Cloning of LS gene

[0037] Using the extracted total RNA as a template, synthesize cDNA according to the instructions of the Tiangen FastKing cDNA First Strand Synthesis Kit; design gene-specific primers, and the specific primers are as follows:

[0038] F: 5'-gtattagtttctggcttgtaattca-3' (SEQ ID NO.7);

[0039]R: 5'-cctactctgttatccaagaaaaaga-3' (SEQ ID NO.8);

[0040] The LS gene was amplified from total cDNA by...

Embodiment 2

[0042] Example 2, using tobacco to verify the function of the LS gene

[0043] (1) LS expression vector construction

[0044] Since there is no commercial source of phenalactoylglucose required for conchine biosynthesis, tobacco was used to verify the function of LS. The LS transient expression vector pEAQ-LS was constructed, and pEAQ-YFP was used as a control. In vector construction, the restriction site of AgeI was introduced into the forward primer, and the restriction site of XhoI was introduced into the reverse primer. The specific primers are as follows:

[0045] pEAQ-LS-F: 5'-cgc accggt atgaagaaaacaattgtggttcca-3' (SEQ ID NO. 3);

[0046] pEAQ-LS-R:5'-cgc ctcgag ttatagaggttgataatatatcc-3' (SEQ ID NO. 4);

[0047] pEAQ-YFP-F:5'-cgc accggt atggtgagcaagggcgagga-3' (SEQ ID NO. 9);

[0048] pEAQ-YFP-R:5'-cgc ctcgag ttacttgtacagctcgtccatg-3' (SEQ ID NO. 10).

[0049] Then use the total cDNA of belladonna as a template, and the sequences shown in SEQ ID NO.3 and S...

Embodiment 3

[0060] Example 3, Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated LS overexpression vector genetically transforms belladonna to obtain transgenic belladonna hairy roots

[0061] (1) Construction of plant binary overexpression vector containing LS gene

[0062] In order to study the effect of LS gene on tropine alkaloids in belladonna, the LS overexpression vector pBI121-LS was constructed. In vector construction, a BamHI restriction site was introduced into the forward primer, and a SacI restriction site was introduced into the reverse primer. The primers are as follows:

[0063] pBI121-LS-F: 5'-cgc ggatcc atgcattataactcaacgtt-3' (SEQ ID NO.5)

[0064] pBI121-LS-R:5'-cgc gagctc ttagaatctagagagaaact-3' (SEQ ID NO.6)

[0065] Then take the belladonna total cDNA as template, and the sequences shown in SEQ ID NO.5 and SEQ ID NO.6 as primers to carry out PCR amplification, and the amplified product is digested with BamHI and SacI and connected to BamH I and Sac I of the pBI121 plasmid Res...

Abstract

The invention discloses conch alkali synthase and application thereof. The conch alkali synthase is a protein with one of the following amino acid residue sequences: (1) an amino acid residue sequenceshown in SEQ ID NO.2; and (2) an amino acid residue sequence with a conch alkali synthase function undergoing substitution and / or deletion and / or addition of one or more amino acid residues on aminoacid residues in SEQ ID NO.2. The conch alkalisynthase hasconch alkali synthesis activity, conch alkali synthesis can be catalyzed through expression of the conch alkali synthetase in tobacco, the conch alkali content can be increased through expression of the conch alkali synthetase in resource plants with tropane alkaloid biosynthetic pathways such as atropa belladonna, thorn apple, hembane, anisodus acutangulus and anisodus luridus, and the conch alkali synthase and application are of great significance to improve and increase the tropane alkaloid content of medicinal resource plants.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to conch synthase (littorine synthase, LS), and also relates to the application of conch synthase. Background technique [0002] Tropane alkaloids (Tas) are a class of anticholinergic drugs with great medical value, widely used in anesthesia, analgesia, cough, asthma and anti-motion sickness, and also used to control stiffness and Tremor. Hyoscyamine and scopolamine are commonly used clinically, and the market demand for both is huge. Among them, scopolamine has weaker side effects, stronger drug effect, and more expensive price. At present, TAs are extracted from a few TAs resource plants of Solanaceae, including Atropa belladonna, Datura stramonium and Hyoscyamus niger. , is also a TAs drug source plant included in the Pharmacopoeia. The mass fraction of scopolamine in wild belladonna plants is 0.02%-0.17% (dry weight), and the content of scopolamine is extremely low, only ...
