Embodiment 1

[0030] Embodiment 1: the acquisition of mutant enzyme D393N gene and the construction of expression vector

[0031] 1.1 Obtaining WT rice cryptochrome gene oscry2

[0032] Find the cryptochrome gene sequence of rice in NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology, AB103094), optimize and truncate it based on the codon preference in Escherichia coli (E.coli), design a gene suitable for expression in E. coli, and submit it to Nanjing GenScript artificially synthesized the gene and loaded it into the pET22b plasmid vector. After successful sequencing by the company, the successfully constructed recombinant plasmid pET22b-OsCRY2 was sent back. (Zheng Binqiong. Escherichia coli synonymous codon preference overview [J]. Silicon Valley, 2009 (01): 23-24.) (Fumiaki Hirose. Involvement of ricecryptochromes in de-etiolation responses and flowering [J]. Plant Cell Physiol, 2006, 47(7):915-25.).

[0052] 2.1 Protein expression

[0053] (1) Inoculation: pick engineering bacteria Rosetta(DE3) / pET22b-D393N, inoculate in 5mlLB (Amp + ,Cam + ) overnight cultivation in liquid medium at 37°C and 225rpm;

[0054] (2) Expansion culture: Take 5ml of the overnight cultured bacterial solution and transfer it to 500ml of liquid LB containing the corresponding antibiotics, culture at 37°C, 225rpm for 4-5h, until OD 600 is about 1;

[0055] (3) Induction: Add 500 μl of 1MIPTG to a final concentration of 1 mM, 20°C, 180 rpm, induce expression for 20 h;

[0056] (4) Bacteria collection: After induction of expression, centrifuge at 5500 rpm for 5 min at 4°C to collect the cells, and store them in a -80°C refrigerator.

[0072] Example 3: Expression and purification of WT (wildtype) rice cryptochrome protein

[0073] Except: Inoculation: Pick engineering bacteria Rosetta(DE3) / pET22b-OsCRY2 and inoculate it in 5ml LB (Amp + ,Cam + ) overnight cultivation in liquid medium at 37°C and 225rpm;

[0074] All the other are identical with embodiment 2.

[0075] Such as figure 1 Shown: there is a single highly specific band at 56kDa, indicating that the purified protein has a high purity (above 90%). And it is consistent with the molecular weight calculated by the amino acid sequence. The D393N mutant enzyme band was thicker than that of WT, indicating that the expression level of the D393N mutant enzyme was increased.

[0076] Such as figure 2 As shown, the elution volume of the WT rice cryptochrome prepared in Example 3 is 14.75 ml, and the calculated molecular weight is 57 kDa, indicating that the WT rice cryptochrome is a monomer. The highest protein absorption peak is 254mAU.

Abstract

The invention discloses site-directed mutagenesis rice cryptochrome and a construction method thereof. The construction method comprises the following steps: obtaining a gene sequence from a gene pool, carrying out artificial codon optimization and protein carboxyl terminal truncation to obtain a target gene sequence, and connecting the target gene sequence with a pET22b plasmid to construct a recombinant expression plasmid. The sequence of the truncated gene is as shown in SEQ ID NO:1. The construction method further comprises the following steps: designing mutation primers, carrying out site-directed mutagenesis by using the recombinant plasmid, and transforming the mutant recombinant plasmid into escherichia coli competent cells to construct genetically engineered bacteria for rice cryptochrome expression. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the polymerization form of the expressed mutant enzyme D393N is changed, the expression quantity is higher, and convenience is provided for in-vitro research; and the D393N mutant enzyme has more free radicals generated by photoreduction and is slower in oxidation, so that the D393N mutant enzyme is favorable for regulating and controlling the flowering period of the rice, benefit-tending and harm-avoiding effects of the rice can be achieved, and the yield of the rice is further increased.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bioengineering, relates to the technical field of gene and protein engineering, in particular to a rice cryptochrome gene and a construction method thereof. Background technique: [0002] Two proteins, cryptochrome and photorepair enzyme, constitute the cryptochrome / photolyase family (cryptochrome / photolyase family, CPF). Cryptochrome is evolved from photorepair enzyme. They have a similar spatial structure, but their functions are quite different. The early earth had thin oxygen, and there was no ozone layer in the atmosphere, so ultraviolet rays could reach the earth without barriers. Medium and short-wave ultraviolet rays can cause DNA damage in organisms and have a strong killing effect on organisms. Photorepair enzymes can repair DNA damage caused by short- and medium-wave ultraviolet rays, mainly by absorbing blue light and long-wave ultraviolet light energy for photoactivation. Cryptochrome lack...
