Embodiment 1

[0034] Embodiment 1: Preparation of recombinant bacteria containing urease gene

[0035] Use primers P1-F / P1-R to linearize plasmid pRSF-Duet-1 by PCR. The PCR reaction system is: 2×Phanta Max Master Mix 25μL, upstream primer (10μM) 2μL, downstream primer (10μM) 2 μL, template DNA 1 μL, ddH 2 O 20 μL (PCR reagents were purchased from Nanjing Novizan Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) to obtain linearized pRSF-Duet-1.

[0036] Chemically synthesize the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.2, and connect it to the linearized plasmid pRSF-Duet-1 (using ClonExpress II One Step Cloning Kit, each 100 μg and 70 μg of the fragment and the linearized plasmid, at 37 °C ligation for 30 min) to obtain the recombinant plasmid P-1-WT, and transform the recombinant plasmid into Escherichia coli JM109 (for specific construction steps, refer to the instructions for use of JM109 competent cells of Beijing Suolaibao Technology Co., Ltd.). Utilize the positive transformant to extract the plasmid, trans...

Embodiment 2

[0046] Embodiment 2: the preparation of mutant M325V, M373A, M373T

[0047] By analyzing the docking structure of the urease protein and the substrate urethane molecule, we chose to mutate its 325th and 373rd methionines, and designed corresponding site-directed mutagenesis primers (Table 2). Using the recombinant plasmid P-1-WT as a template, the primers in Table 2 were used to amplify the recombinant plasmid P-1-WT.

[0053] Example 3: Expression and purification of urease mutants

[0054] The urease mutant strain was inoculated in liquid LB medium (containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin), cultivated at 37° C. for 12 hours at 220 rpm to obtain seed liquid, and inoculated the seed liquid into TB medium (containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin), 37 ℃, 220rpm cultivated to OD 600 =0.6-0.8, add 0.1mM IPTG and 6mM Ni 2 SO 4 , 30° C., 220 rpm induction culture for 15 hours to obtain a fermentation broth. The fermentation broth was centrifuged at 4°C and 8000r / min for 15min, and the bacterial sediment was collected. The bacterial cells were washed twice with 20mmol / L pH7.4 phosphate buffer solution, and 50mL of Binding Buffer (20mmol / L pH 7.4 phosphoric acid Salt buffer solution, 0.5mol / L NaCl) to resuspend the bacterial cells, ultrasonically break in an ice-water bath (crushing conditions: 130w, 2s / 4s, 20min), centrifuge at 4°C, 12000r / min for 20min, and collect the supernatant to obtain crude urease Enzyme so...

Abstract

The invention discloses a urease mutant with improved application performance. The 325th methionine of wild-type urease was mutated to valine, or the 373rd methionine was mutated to alanine or threonine by site-directed mutagenesis. K of urease mutants M325V, M373A and M373T m Compared with the wild type urease decreased by 41.24%, 50.82% and 37.47%, respectively, the degradation rate of EC in rice wine increased by 64%, 50% and 94% compared with the wild type, and the mutant M373T with the best degradation effect could Reduce the EC in rice wine from 513.90μg / L to 393.57μg / L. The mutant obtained by the invention can adapt to the pH and ethanol conditions of rice wine, has good degradation effects on urea and EC, and is suitable for the treatment and preservation of rice wine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a urease mutant with improved application performance, belonging to the technical fields of genetic engineering and enzyme engineering. Background technique [0002] Ethyl carbamate (EC) is an ammonia hazard detected in traditional fermented foods. In 2007, EC was officially classified by IARC as a Class 2A carcinogen, that is, it is likely to be carcinogenic to humans. [0003] In alcoholic beverages, EC is mainly formed by the reaction of urea and ethanol. At present, there are three main strategies to eliminate EC in rice wine. Strategy 1: Process optimization method, which mainly focuses on three aspects, 1. Refining raw materials to reduce urea in raw materials; 2. Optimizing the fermentation process of alcoholic beverages to reduce precursors produced by strain metabolism and enzymatic reactions 3. Optimize the post-treatment process of alcoholic beverages, such as shortening the sterilization heating time and speeding...
