Embodiment 1

[0019] Example 1: Isolation of mevalonate kinase gene from Rhodosporidium YM25235 RKMK And the construction of overexpression vector pRHRKMK

[0020] The total RNA of Rhodosporidium YM25235 was extracted using the UNlQ-10 Column Trizol Total RNA Extraction Kit (product number: SK1321) of Sangon Bioengineering (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., and then followed by Vazyme’s kit (product number: R212-02) According to the operating instructions in HiScript II 1st Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (+gDNA wiper), carry out reverse transcription to synthesize cDNA, take 1 μL of cDNA as a template for polymerase chain reaction, according to the results found in transcriptome sequencing RKMK Sequence, design specific primers RKMK-F and RKMK-R (primer 1 and primer 2), use the cDNA template obtained above, use primers RKMK-F and RKMK-R, in a PCR machine (Beijing Liuyi Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) The primers, amplification system and amplification conditions used in the reaction are as follows:

Embodiment 2

[0030] Example 2: RKMK Analysis of Carotenoid Content in Rhodosporidium YM25235 Overexpressed

[0031] 1. Transform Rhodosporidium YM25235

[0032] Pick the single clone of the DH5α strain successfully transferred to the correct recombinant vector pRHRKMK and insert it into LB liquid medium (containing 100 μg / mL spectinomycin) for overnight culture, extract the plasmid (OMEGA Plasmid Mini Kit I, OMEGA, USA), and measure the concentration , stored at -20°C for later use; pick a single colony of Rhodosporidium YM25235 and inoculate it in 5mL of YPD liquid medium, and culture it overnight at 30°C and 200rpm with shaking; Connect to 50mL of YPD liquid medium at 30°C and shake at 200rpm and culture until the OD of the bacterial solution 600 Centrifuge the culture at 4°C, 4500 rpm for 5 min to collect the bacteria; use the previously prepared citric acid buffer (30mM citric acid, 83mM sodium citrate, 600mM mannitol, NaOH to adjust the pH value to 5.4) to wash the bacteria Centrif...

Abstract

The invention discloses a mevalonate kinase gene RKMK and application thereof, the nucleotide sequence of the mevalonate kinase gene RKMK is shown as SEQ ID NO: 1, and the amino acid sequence coded by the gene is shown as SEQ ID NO: 2; the gene is separated from Rhodosporidium kratochvilovae YM25235, the gene is connected with a carrier and is transferred into a Rhodosporidium cell, and an experimental result shows that overexpression of the RKMK gene can promote synthesis of carotenoid by the Rhodosporidium kratochvilovae; according to the invention, the microorganisms are modified by means of genetic engineering, so that the yield of carotenoid in the microorganisms is increased, and a foundation is laid for large-scale commercialized production of carotenoid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and genetic engineering technology, and relates to a mevalonate kinase gene RKMK and its role in improving Rhodosporidium ( Rhodosporidium kratochvilovae ) application in carotenoid production. Background technique [0002] Mevalonate kinase (MVK) is the first of three consecutive ATP-dependent enzymes in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway and is one of the rate-limiting enzymes that control the entire metabolic pathway. Mevalonate kinase The N-terminus of the protein contains a conserved region rich in Gly / Ser, which is involved in the binding of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Mevalonate kinase is responsible for transferring a phosphate group on the ATP-γ position to the hydroxyl group at the 5th position of mevalonate to form mevalonate-5-phosphate and release ADP. Mevalonate kinases from different biological sources are usually monomers or dimers composed of the same subunits, with a molecular weight...
