[0111] Example 1 Preparation of Several Fusion Protein Composite Heavy Metal Adsorbents

[0112] Preparation flow chart of composite heavy metal adsorbent Figure 2 .

[0113] 1. Preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT1 and cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1

[0114] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pSUMO-CBM-MTT1 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein SUMO-CBM-MTT1.

[0115] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pGST-CBM-MTT1 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein GST-CBM-MTT1.

[0116] The supernatants of the obtained fusion proteins SUMO-CBM-MTT1 and GST-CBM-MTT1 were used as fusion protein solutions (concentration of 1.55 mg / mL); 0.1 g of cellulose was added to 1 mL of the fusion protein solution, and adsorbed at 25°C and 100 rpm for 2 hours. When the timing was over, the supernatant after adsorption was taken and added to 5× protein loading buffer for sample preparation. The supernatant after adsorption was discarded, washed twice with 1 mL of deionized water, and then 1 mL of PBS buffer was added. 0.01 g of the adsorbed product cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT1 or GST-CBM-MTT1 was taken and added to PBS buffer and 5× protein loading buffer according to the final volume of 0.1 mL, and heated at 100°C for 10 minutes for desorption. The effect of cellulose adsorption of fusion protein was analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis.

[0117] The results showed that the band of SUMO-CBM-MTT1 did not change significantly before and after adsorption, and there was no obvious band after desorption, see Figure 3 (a) in Figure 2. The band of GST-CBM-MTT1 disappeared compared with the control, see Figure 3 (b) in .

[0118] Compare the expression levels of SUMO-CBM-MTT1 and GST-CBM-MTT1 in the supernatant and their adsorption capacity to cellulose, and preliminarily select GST-CBM-MTT1 for the preparation of adsorbent. According to the adsorption of GST-CBM-MTT1 to cellulose, 0.1g cellulose was quantitatively added to different volumes of protein supernatant, and the selected fusion protein solution gradient was 1-4mL. The fusion protein solution was added to a 50mL centrifuge tube containing cellulose (the cellulose should be completely immersed in the fusion protein solution), and combined at 25℃ and 100rpm for 2h. Take the supernatant after adsorption for sample preparation, discard the remaining supernatant, wash twice with 1mL deionized water, add 1mL PBS buffer, take 0.01g adsorption product (based on cellulose dry weight) and add PBS buffer and 5× protein loading buffer according to the final volume of 0.1mL, and heat at 100℃ for 10min for sample preparation. The effect of cellulose adsorption of fusion protein and the amount of fusion protein adsorption were analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis.

[0119] The results showed that the band of GST-CBM-MTT1 disappeared when the fusion protein solution was 1mL and 2mL, and gradually thickened when it increased to 3mL and 4mL. Correspondingly, after desorption, as the volume of the fusion protein solution increased, the band of GST-CBM-MTT1 also gradually thickened. When the fusion protein solution was close to 4mL, the band did not change significantly ( Figure 4 ), the binding amount of cellulose to GST-CBM-MTT1 reached saturation. In the adsorbent whose component was metallothionein MTT1, GST-CBM-MTT1 was selected to bind to cellulose and the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1 was prepared according to 0.1g cellulose / 4mL fusion protein solution.

[0120] 2. Preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 and cellulose-GST-CBM-TM1

[0121] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pSUMO-CBM-TM1 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein SUMO-CBM-TM1.

[0122] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pGST-CBM-TM1 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein GST-CBM-TM1.

[0123] The supernatants of fusion proteins SUMO-CBM-TM1 and GST-CBM-TM1 were used as fusion protein solutions (concentrations of 2.19 mg / mL and 2.42 mg / mL), respectively. 0.5 mL of fusion protein solution and 0.5 mL of PBS buffer were added to 0.05 g of cellulose, and adsorbed at 25 ° C and 100 rpm for 2 hours. The supernatant after adsorption was added to 5× protein loading buffer for sample preparation. The remaining supernatant was discarded, and the adsorbed product was washed twice with 1 mL of deionized water, and then 0.05 mL of PBS buffer was added. 0.01 g of the binding product was added to PBS buffer and 5× protein loading buffer according to the final volume of 0.1 mL, and heated at 100 ° C for 10 minutes for desorption. The effect of cellulose adsorption of fusion proteins was analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis and compared.

[0124] The results showed that the bands of SUMO-CBM-TM1 changed significantly before and after adsorption, and there were obvious bands after desorption, see Figure 5 (a) in the figure. The bands of GST-CBM-TM1 changed significantly before and after adsorption, and there were obvious bands after desorption. However, compared with SUMO-CBM-TM1 after desorption, GST-CBM-TM1 had more miscellaneous bands after desorption, see Figure 5 (b) In view of the expression of fusion protein SUMO-CBM-TM1 in the protein supernatant and its relatively small molecular weight, SUMO-CBM-TM1 was selected as the metallothionein TM1 component and combined with cellulose at a rate of 0.1 g cellulose / 1 mL fusion protein solution to prepare the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1.

[0125] 3. Preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 and cellulose-GST-CBM-TM2

[0126] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pSUMO-CBM-TM2 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein SUMO-CBM-TM2.

[0127] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pGST-CBM-TM2 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein GST-CBM-TM2.

[0128] The preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 and cellulose-GST-CBM-TM2 refers to step 2.

[0129] The results showed that the bands of SUMO-CBM-TM2 changed significantly before and after adsorption, and there were obvious bands after desorption, see Figure 6 (a) in Figure 3. The bands of GST-CBM-TM2 before and after adsorption changed significantly. The bands were more obvious after desorption. However, compared with SUMO-CBM-TM2 after desorption, the protein bands of GST-CBM-TM2 after desorption were weaker and the miscellaneous bands were more obvious. Figure 6 (b) in the figure shows that SUMO-CBM-TM2 has a stronger ability to bind to cellulose. The content of fusion protein SUMO-CBM-TM2 and GST-CBM-TM2 in the protein supernatant is similar, but SUMO-CBM-TM2 has a smaller molecular weight. In order to contrast with SUMO-CBM-TM1, SUMO-CBM-TM2 was selected as the metallothionein TM2 component and combined with cellulose at 0.1 g cellulose / 2 mL fusion protein solution to prepare a composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2.

[0130] 4. Preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose adsorbed CBM-MTT5 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5

[0131] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pCBM-MTT5 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein CBM-MTT5.

[0132] The recombinant bacteria BL21 / pSUMO-CBM-MTT5 was constructed and induced to express, and the supernatant of the induced expression product was obtained to obtain the supernatant of the fusion protein SUMO-CBM-MTT5.

[0133] The supernatants of the obtained fusion proteins CBM-MTT5 and pSUMO-CBM-MTT5 were used as fusion protein solutions, 0.1 g cellulose was added to 1 mL fusion protein solution, and adsorbed at 25°C and 100 rpm for 2 hours. After adsorption, the supernatant was added to 5× protein loading buffer for sample preparation. The effect of cellulose adsorption of fusion proteins was analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis.

[0134] The results showed that the CBM-MTT5 bands changed significantly before and after adsorption, indicating the binding ability of the untagged fusion protein to cellulose. Figure 7 (a) in .

[0135] The supernatant of the obtained fusion protein SUMO-CBM-MTT5 was used as the fusion protein solution (concentration of 2.06 mg / mL), 0.1 g of cellulose was added to 1 mL of the fusion protein solution, and adsorbed at 25°C and 100 rpm for 2 hours. The supernatant after adsorption was taken and added to 5× protein loading buffer for sample preparation. The remaining supernatant after adsorption was discarded, washed twice with 1 mL of deionized water, and then 1 mL of PBS buffer was added. 0.01 g of the adsorbed product cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 was added to PBS buffer and 5× protein loading buffer according to the final volume of 0.1 mL, and heated at 100°C for 10 minutes for desorption. The effect of cellulose adsorption of fusion protein was analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis.

[0136] The results showed that the bands of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 changed significantly before and after adsorption, and there were obvious bands after desorption, see Figure 7 (b) in the figure. The SUMO tag promotes the expression of the fusion protein in the supernatant and has almost no effect on the binding ability to cellulose. Therefore, SUMO-CBM-MTT5 was initially selected as the protein component for the preparation of the adsorbent.

[0137] In view of the adsorption of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 to cellulose, 0.1g cellulose was quantitatively added to the same volume of protein supernatant with different concentrations. The selected fusion protein solution gradient ratio was 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1 (concentrations were 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, 2 mg / mL). 1mL of protein dilution was added to a 2mL centrifuge tube weighing cellulose, and combined at 25°C and 100rpm for 2h. The supernatant after adsorption was taken for sample preparation, and the remaining supernatant was discarded, washed twice with 1mL deionized water, and then 1mL PBS buffer was added. 0.01g of adsorption product (based on dry weight) was added to PBS buffer and 5× protein loading buffer according to the final volume of 0.1mL, and heated at 100°C for 10min for desorption. The effect of cellulose adsorption fusion protein and the grayscale detection of protein adsorption were analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis. At the same time, a fusion protein solution dilution ratio of 0.4 was selected to test the stability of the prepared adsorbent. After adsorption at 25°C and 100rpm for 2h, it was placed at 4°C for 7d. Similarly, the fusion protein solution was placed at 4°C and -80°C for 7d, and the supernatant was taken for sample preparation. 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis was used to analyze the protein stability and the stability of the prepared adsorbent. The binding stability of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 with cellulose was also tested. After obtaining the adsorbent, it was washed twice with deionized water, and then washed with PBS buffer and 10mM and 20mM EDTA salt solutions in turn, and the washing solution was collected for 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis analysis.

[0138] The results showed that the band changes of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 before and after adsorption at different protein concentrations were obvious and gradient-type. After desorption, it was found that when the protein concentration was 1.2 mg / mL (including higher concentrations), no obvious changes in the band were observed. The grayscale detection and analysis of the protein bands determined that when the protein concentration reached 1.2 mg / mL, the binding amount of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 to cellulose reached a saturated state, see Figure 8 Therefore, among the adsorbents whose component was MTT5, SUMO-CBM-MTT5 was selected to combine with cellulose and the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 was prepared at 0.1 g cellulose / 1 mL fusion protein solution (protein concentration: 1.2 mg / mL).

[0139] The storage stability and binding stability of the initially prepared cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 adsorbent were verified. The results showed that the SUMO-CBM-MTT5 protein could be stably stored for 7 days at 4°C and -80°C without obvious degradation. The adsorbent could also be stably stored for 7 days at 4°C. Fig. 9); There were no obvious bands in the PBS and EDTA washing samples, indicating that PBS and EDTA had no obvious elution of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 bound to cellulose, indicating that the binding of SUMO-CBM-MTT5 to cellulose was relatively stable ( Fig.10 ).

[0140] Experimental Example 2: Binding test of non-CBM component proteins SUMO and GST-tagged proteins to cellulose

[0141] In order to further test whether the binding of CBM component proteins to cellulose is specific, non-CBM component proteins SUMO and GST-tagged proteins were selected as controls for comparison with the preparation of the above-mentioned composite heavy metal adsorbent. The obtained SUMO-tagged protein supernatant was added with 1 mL of fusion protein solution according to 0.1 g of cellulose, and oscillated at 25°C and 100 rpm for 2 h; while the GST-tagged protein supernatant was added with 0.5 mL of fusion protein solution and 0.5 mL of PBS buffer according to 0.05 g of cellulose, and oscillated at 25°C and 100 rpm for 2 h. The supernatant was taken for sample preparation, and the rest of the supernatant was discarded, washed twice with 1 mL of deionized water, and then 1 mL of PBS buffer was added. 0.01 g of adsorption product (based on dry weight) was added to PBS buffer and 5× protein loading buffer according to the final volume of 0.1 mL, and heated at 100°C for 10 min for sample preparation. 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis was used for gel running and identification.

[0142] The results showed that there was no significant change in the overall protein bands before and after adsorption, and there were no obvious bands or bands indicating adsorption after desorption ( Fig.11 ). This indicates that non-CBM component proteins are difficult to bind to cellulose or cannot effectively bind to cellulose, and the CBM component plays a major role in the binding of fusion protein to cellulose.

[0143] Test Example 3 Characterization of the Composite Heavy Metal Adsorbent Prepared in Example 1

[0144] The prepared composite heavy metal adsorbent was freeze-dried for 12 to 18 hours using a vacuum freeze dryer to obtain a freeze-dried product. Cellulose and non-CBM component protein cellulose binding products (freeze-dried products) soaked in PBS and freeze-dried were used as controls, and the morphology was characterized using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Pure cellulose was used as a control, and the functional groups of cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 were detected using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).

[0145] The morphology of cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 were detected by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Compared with pure cellulose and non-CBM components, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 have obvious changes in appearance. The pores on the cellulose surface are almost completely covered due to the binding of proteins ( Fig.12 ). The Fourier spectrum results showed that compared with pure fibers, cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1 had a -1 and 1530cm -1 The protein characteristic peak (amide I band (1600-1700 cm -1 ), amide II band (1500~1600cm -1 ))( Fig.13 ), cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 at 1650 cm -1 and 1540cm -1 The protein characteristic peak appears at Fig.14 ). This shows the binding of protein to cellulose.

[0146] In summary, the successful preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2, cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5, the changes in the morphology of the cellulose surface and the appearance of functional groups behind the cellulose binding protein also further confirmed the binding of cellulose and fusion protein, which is further evidence of the successful preparation of composite heavy metal adsorbents.

[0147] Example 2 The composite heavy metal adsorbent prepared in Example 1 is used for heavy metal ion Pb 2+ 、Cd 2+ Adsorption

[0148] Dilution of heavy metal ions (Pb 2+ 、Cd 2+ ) mother liquor, with an initial concentration of 40 mg / L. The prepared composite heavy metal adsorbents cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 were used for Pb 2+ 、Cd 2+ Adsorption experiment.

[0149] In order to reduce the influence of PBS buffer and attachments on the adsorption of heavy metal ions, the prepared adsorbent was washed twice with deionized water (the volume of deionized water corresponded to the volume of the fusion protein solution added when preparing the adsorbent), added to 40 mL of a heavy metal ion solution with an initial concentration of 40 mg / L (adjusted to pH ≈ 7 with NaOH), and adsorbed at 25 °C and 100 rpm for 3 h. After adsorption, the adsorbent was collected by centrifugation at 8,000 rpm for 10 min, and 5 mL of the solution was taken for determination of heavy metal ions (Pb 2+ 、Cd 2+ ) concentration. Each single ion adsorption experiment was performed in triplicate. The conical flask used was nitrated with 20% dilute nitric acid solution and reused.

[0150] Composite heavy metal adsorbent for Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ The removal rate (%) and adsorption capacity are calculated according to the following formula:

[0151] Removal rate: R (%) = (C0-C) / C0×100% (C0: initial concentration of heavy metal ions, C: concentration of heavy metal ions in the solution after adsorption)

[0152] Adsorption amount = (C0-C) × V / M DW (C0: initial concentration of heavy metal ions, C: concentration of heavy metal ions in the solution after adsorption, V: volume of heavy metal ion solution)

[0153] All experiments were repeated 3 times. SPSS Statistics 27.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Origin 8.0 was used for graphics. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze the differences between the control group and the experimental group (*p<0.05 indicates a significant difference, **p<0.01 indicates an extremely significant difference). Dry weight (DW) was used to calculate the corresponding parameters.

[0154] The results show:

[0155] Compared with pure cellulose, the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1 has significant differences in removal efficiency and adsorption capacity. 2+ The removal rate and adsorption capacity of Pb were 32.6% and 2.61 mg / g, respectively, while pure cellulose 2+ The removal rate and adsorption capacity of Cd were 18.7% and 1.49 mg / g respectively; the removal rate and adsorption capacity of Cd were 18.7% and 1.49 mg / g respectively for the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-GST-CBM-MTT1. 2+ The removal rate and adsorption capacity of pure cellulose for Cd were 39.2% and 3.13 mg / g, respectively. 2+ The removal rate and adsorption capacity were 22.3% and 1.79 mg / g ( Fig.15 ).

[0156] The composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 has a higher adsorption rate for Pb than pure fiber. 2+ 、Cd 2+ The ability of the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 to absorb Pb 2+ The removal rate and adsorption capacity of Cd were 59.3% and 4.75 mg / g respectively; the removal rate and adsorption capacity of Cd of composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 were 59.3% and 4.75 mg / g respectively. 2+ The removal rate and adsorption capacity were 52.1% and 4.17 mg / g ( Fig.16 ).

[0157] The composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 has a higher adsorption rate for Pb than pure fiber 2+ 、Cd 2+ There is a significant difference in the ability of Pb 2+ 、Cd 2+ The removal rates of Pb and 2+ 、Cd 2+ The adsorption amounts were 5.69 mg / g and 4.36 mg / g respectively. Fig.17 ).

[0158] Compared with pure fiber, the composite heavy metal adsorbent cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 adsorbs heavy metal ions, especially Pb 2+ The ability of Pb has been significantly improved. 2+ 、Cd 2+ The removal rates of Pb and 2+ 、Cd 2+ The adsorption amounts were 5.69 mg / g and 3.45 mg / g respectively. Fig.18 ).

[0159] In summary, compared with pure cellulose, it was found that each composite heavy metal adsorbent had a significant effect on the removal of heavy metal ions. The molecular weights of SUMO-CBM-TM2 and SUMO-CBM-MTT5 proteins were similar, and the amount of protein bound to cellulose was similar. Therefore, cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 had a significant effect on the removal of heavy metal ions Pb. 2+ The adsorption amount of Cd 2+ The adsorption capacity of cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 was slightly higher than that of cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5. 2+ The ability is significantly stronger than Cd2+ .

[0162] The results showed that cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 adsorbed Cd 2+ Afterwards, the element scanning analysis showed the presence of Cd, and the Cd content was high in the semi-quantitative detection ( Fig.19 , Fig. 20 ); Cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 adsorbs Pb 2+ After that, Pb was found in the elemental scanning analysis, and Pb accounted for a higher proportion in the semi-quantitative detection ( Fig.21 ). According to the results of SEM, it was confirmed that the composite heavy metal adsorbent has a strong affinity for heavy metal ions Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ The above results show that cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM1 and cellulose-SUMO-CBM-TM2 can absorb Cd 2+ The semi-quantitative test also indirectly showed that the two 2+ The adsorption capacity of cellulose-SUMO-CBM-MTT5 was 2+ The elemental analysis and semi-quantitative detection of Pb 2+ combination.
