[0052] Embodiment 1. Cloning of Schizochytrium squalene synthase gene (SQS)

[0053] According to the sequence information of the Schizochytrium squalene synthase gene (SQS), design primers P1 and P2 as shown in SEQ ID No.1 and SEQ ID No.2 respectively, and the underlined parts are restriction enzyme cutting sites NheI and XbaI uses the Schizochytrium sp.ATCC1381 genome as a template, and uses primers P1 / P2 and PrimerStar high-fidelity polymerase to amplify squalene synthase by PCR to obtain a squalene synthase gene (SQS) fragment. The PCR program was: 94°C for 30s, 60°C for 30s, 72°C for 1.5min, 34 cycles, and the PCR product was purified, and the purified product was verified by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis.

Abstract

The invention discloses a schizochytrium sp. genetic engineering strain overexpressing a squalene synthetase gene, as well as a construction method and application of the schizochytrium sp. genetic engineering strain. Schizochytrium sp. ATCC1381 is adopted as an original strain, an overexpression vector is constructed in escherichia coli through the means of genetic engineering, bleomycin is selected as a screening resistance gene, the highly conserved sequence 18S rRNA of eucaryon is used as a homologous arm, a linear overexpressed fragment is electro-transformed into the schizochytrium sp toobtain a genetic engineering strain with high yield of squalene, and a theoretical basis is laid for microbial produced squalene and product industrialization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, and in particular relates to a Schizochytrium genetically engineered bacterial strain and a construction method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Squalene is a lipid unsaponifiable substance composed of 6 isoprene units. It is widely used in food, medical treatment, beauty and other fields because of its various functions such as defense against viruses, anti-aging, and anti-tumor. The main source of squalene in the current market is shark liver oil, which is also abundant in vegetable oil. As the market demand for squalene is increasing day by day, the limitation of natural resources and the complex reactions and extremely low yields of chemical synthesis methods make squalene unable to meet the demand, so the way of using microbial resources to produce squalene has become the future development trend. This method has attracted great attention due to the advantages of sh...
