Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and particularly relates to an alcohol detoxifying enzyme protein capable of decomposing ethanol and acetaldehyde and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Wine has a long history and is indispensable in people's daily lives. Alcohol (i.e. ethanol), the main component of wine, has many negative effects on the human body due to its unique properties, causing great physical and social damage. The effects of alcohol on the body can be divided into acute and chronic effects. The acute effects are mainly manifested as acute gastric and esophageal bleeding, etc. The chronic effects refer to long-term and large-scale drinking, which causes damage to various organs, manifested in the central and peripheral nervous systems, muscles, heart, liver, pancreas, digestive tract, etc. In daily life, the mental and physical state of drunkenness that is different from that of ordinary people is the best example of the negative effects of alcohol on the human body.

[0003] Alcohol can be directly absorbed by the human body without being digested, so it can quickly enter the blood and reach the whole body. After alcohol enters the human body, it will be decomposed into acetaldehyde under the action of alcohol dehydrogenase. Acetaldehyde is decomposed into acetic acid under the action of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. Acetic acid is then decomposed into carbon dioxide and water, and finally excreted from the body. When the human body drinks alcohol at a rate that exceeds the rate of ethanol metabolism and decomposition, it will cause ethanol or acetaldehyde accumulation, which is harmful to the human body. In order to reduce the harm of drinking to the human body, the human body can be protected by accelerating the decomposition of ethanol. However, only accelerating the decomposition of ethanol may cause ethanol accumulation, which is also harmful to the human body, and the accumulation of acetaldehyde will also inhibit the decomposition of ethanol. Therefore, accelerating the decomposition of ethanol while accelerating the decomposition of acetaldehyde can truly reduce the harm of alcohol to the human body when drinking. Summary of the invention

[0028] (II) Expression and purification of target protein

[0029] 1. Transform the plasmids overexpressing the target proteins AADH01 and AADH02 into Rosetta (DE3) competent cells (Adamas life, C8182-1 mL) and culture them in an incubator at 37°C with shaking for 1 hour.

[0030] 2. The competent cells transformed with the plasmids overexpressing the target proteins AADH01 and AADH02 were spread on different ampicillin-resistant LB culture plates and inverted for overnight culture, and were marked as AADH01 and AADH02, respectively.

[0031] 3. Select monoclonal colonies and place them into different ampicillin-resistant LB liquid culture media, marked as AADH01 and AADH02 respectively. Add two other monoclonal colonies into the same ampicillin-resistant LB liquid culture medium as a control group, marked as AADH00, and culture them in an air bath constant temperature oscillator at 37°C for 8 hours.

[0032] 4. Add IPTG (Adamas life, 52119M) to the bacterial solution of each transformed colony to a concentration of 1 mM. Do not add IPTG to the bacterial solution of the control group. Incubate the culture overnight at 37°C in an air bath constant temperature oscillator.

[0033] 5. Collect the bacterial precipitate by centrifugation and purify the protein using a His-tag protein purification kit (Beyotime, P2226).

[0034] 6. Use Bradford protein concentration determination kit (Beyotime, P0006) to determine the concentration of the purified target protein, then use SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis and silver staining kit (Beyotime, P0017S) for silver staining.

[0035] 7. The protein purified by His tag was purified by Strep tag using streptavidin magnetic beads (Adamas life, F8029-1 mL) according to the instructions to obtain the double-tag purified expressed protein.

[0042] 2. Add 560uL of anticoagulant human plasma, 70uL of 1% ethanol solution, and 35uL of NDA+ solution into the same test tube and mix well to obtain a mixed solution.

[0043] 3. Select 6 wells in a 96-well plate and add 95uL of the mixed solution obtained in the previous step to each well. Take 10uL of the control protein, AADH01 protein, and AADH02 protein purified by double tags and add them to the selected 6 wells respectively. Do one replicate for each sample.

[0044] 4. Use an enzyme-labeled instrument to measure the absorbance value at 340 nm, and take the average value for each sample. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0045] Table 1

[0046] Group Control group AADH01 AADH02 Absorbance value 0.7086 0.7163 0.7182

[0048] (II) Identification of the target protein’s ability to decompose acetaldehyde

[0049] Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase catalyzes NAD+ to oxidize ethanol to produce acetic acid and NADH. NADH has an absorption peak at 340nm, while NAD+ does not. The absorbance change at 340nm is measured to determine the ability of the target protein to catalyze the decomposition of acetaldehyde.

[0050] 1. Preparation of solution: Take 0.05 g of NAD+ (Adamas, 63713A) and dissolve it in ultrapure water to 5 mL to obtain NAD+ solution; take 0.1 mL of anhydrous ethanol (Greagent, G73537F) and add it to 9.9 mL of ultrapure water to obtain a 1% ethanol solution; take 0.25 mL of 40% acetaldehyde (Greagent, G80994A) and add it to 9.75 mL of ultrapure water to obtain a 1% acetaldehyde solution.

[0051] 2. Add 560uL of anticoagulant human plasma, 70uL of 1% acetaldehyde solution, and 35uL of NDA+ solution into the same test tube and mix well to obtain a mixed solution.

Take 10uL of the control protein, AADH01 protein, and AADH02 protein purified by double tags and add them to the selected 6 wells respectively. Do one replicate for each sample.

[0053] 4. Use an enzyme-labeled instrument to measure the absorbance value at 340 nm, and take the average value for each sample. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0054] Table 2

[0055] Group Control group AADH01 AADH02 Absorbance value 0.7264 0.7581 0.7584

[0056] From the results, the absorbance values ​​of the target proteins AADH01 and AADH02 at 340nm were greater than that of the control group proteins, indicating that the target proteins AADH01 and AADH02 have the ability to catalyze the decomposition of acetaldehyde.

[0057] In summary, the alcohol detoxifying enzyme protein designed in the present invention can catalyze the decomposition of both ethanol and acetaldehyde in the presence of NAD+, and has the function of accelerating alcohol metabolism and reducing the harm of alcohol to the human body.
