Embodiment 1

[0021] 1. Example 1: PtoLAC14 gene cloning

[0022] Design specific primers, use Populus tomentosa cDNA as a template, perform PCR amplification, recover the product, and sequence to obtain the CDS sequence of PtoLAC14 with a length of 1677bp. The CDS sequence of PtoLAC14 is shown in SEQ ID No.1. The primers are as follows,

[0023] Forward primer: ATGGAGTACGCTTGCTGGCTCC (SEQ ID No. 2); reverse primer: TCAACATTTTGGAAGGTCGCTT (SEQ ID No. 3).

Embodiment 2

[0024] 2. Example 2: PtoLAC14 protein induction purification and enzyme activity assay

[0025] 1. Construct the prokaryotic expression vector of PtoLAC14 protein. The prokaryotic expression vector used in the present invention is pET32a + , the Escherichia coli strain for prokaryotic induced expression is BL21.

[0026] 2. Determination of laccase activity of PtoLAC14 fusion protein. The invention uses ABTS as a substrate to measure the laccase activity of PtoLAC14 fusion protein.

[0027] ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzodihydrothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt) is a synthetic compound specially used for the determination of laccase activity. Enzymatic oxidation produces dark green cationic free radical ABTS + , ABTS at 420nm + The absorption coefficient of free radicals is much larger than that of the substrate ABTS. With ABTS + As the concentration of free radicals increases, the absorbance value becomes larger. The time elapsed when the absorbance value...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for regulating the proportion of S / G type lignin and improving the degradation and conversion efficiency of cell walls by using laccase PtoLAC14, and belongs to the technical field of plant genetic engineering. The CDS sequence of the PtoLAC14 is shown as SEQ ID No. 1. It is discovered for the first time that the populus tomentosa PtoLAC14 can specifically regulateand control polymerization of G-type lignin monomers, and the PtoLAC14 is edited by using a CRISPR / Cas9 technology, so that transgenic plants with reduced total lignin content, reduced G-type lignincontent and increased lignin S / G ratio are obtained; the cell wall degradability of the transgenic plants is obviously improved, so that the removal cost of lignin during biological energy source production and papermaking is reduced. The invention lays a foundation for lignin genetic improvement and directed molecular breeding of plants, provides a new gene resource for plant genetic engineering,and has a wide application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, and in particular relates to a gene and a regulation method for regulating the ratio of S / G type lignin in poplar trees. Background technique [0002] Poplar (Populus spp.) is the most widely planted fast-growing tree species in the world. It is an important raw material for papermaking and construction, and it is also the main raw material for the bioenergy industry (Wang et al., 2012). However, in the development and utilization of poplar, the existence of lignin (Lignin) directly affects its production cost (Baucher et al., 2003). For example, in the process of biomass energy production, pretreatment is required to remove lignin, and the lignin component must also be removed in papermaking. Therefore, it is of great scientific significance and industrial significance to study the regulation mechanism of plant lignin biosynthesis, reduce the content of lignin in wood or change its components...
