Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of proteins, in particular to a protein combination that affects yeast growth rate and exogenous protein expression amount. Background Art
[0002] The yeast expression system has advantages such as high fermentation density, strong secretion ability, and low glycosylation degree. However, it is easy to be attacked by yeast proteolytic enzymes and degraded during the expression of foreign proteins. This is one of the main factors affecting the efficient expression of foreign proteins in Pichia pastoris. Studies have shown that the amount of various proteolytic enzymes in yeast cells will change with changes in nutritional conditions during the culture process, such as starvation stress during the culture process, changes in carbon and nitrogen sources, etc. Especially in the high-density fermentation process, higher levels of proteases can often be detected in the culture medium.
[0003] During the fermentation process, when the cells are under stress, the proteases located in the yeast vacuole are overexpressed or the cells are autolyzed and ruptured and released to the extracellular space, thereby degrading the recombinant proteins secreted to the extracellular space.
[0004] Sweeteners are food additives that give food or feed a sweet taste. According to their sources, they can be divided into natural sweeteners and artificial sweeteners. With the development of organic chemistry, artificial sweeteners have gradually become dominant, but because some chemically synthesized sweeteners are suspected of having safety issues, many countries in the world have discouraged or even banned the use of certain chemical sweeteners. In view of this, it is extremely important to find safe, non-toxic, and pure natural sweeteners.
[0005] Taking brazzein as an example of foreign protein expressed in yeast, brazzein (sometimes translated as Brazzein in Chinese) is the main sweet protein of Oubli fruit (Pentadiplandra brazzeana Baillon) in West Africa. It is present in the extracellular pulp tissue around the seeds. For thousands of years, locals have used it as a sweetener. Since this juice is also used to help infants wean, Brazzein has been proven to have a long history of safe use for both infants and adults. Brazzein is a single-chain polypeptide composed of 54 amino acid residues, containing 8 cysteines, forming 4 pairs of intramolecular disulfide bonds. The relative molecular mass of brazzein is 6500, and its sweetness is 2000 times that of the same mass of sucrose. Compared with other sweet proteins, brazzein has the smallest molecular weight and the best water solubility. The aqueous solution still retains sweetness after 4h heat treatment at 80 degrees Celsius, and has good thermal stability and pH stability.
[0006] Salt is the most common condiment, and NaCl is one of its main ingredients. However, excessive salt intake can lead to an increase in sodium ion concentration. This may lead to increased osmotic pressure, increased vascular tone and cardiac output, and ultimately increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Studies have shown that a low-salt diet can effectively lower blood pressure in both hypertensive and normotensive patients.
[0007] On October 24, 2024, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) issued the "Definition and Requirements of a Healthy Diet", which recommends that adults use no more than 5 grams of salt per day, but most countries in the world exceed this amount. Generally speaking, the industry uses food additives to reduce the sodium ion concentration in salt, among which potassium chloride is the most widely used food additive. Although potassium ions, which also have a salty taste, can reduce the risk of hypertension while ensuring the saltiness, the increase in potassium is not good for patients with kidney disease, and it is likely to interact with drugs for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and aggravate the patient's condition. There are certain health risks, and when the concentration exceeds 15%, potassium ions have a bitter taste in the mouth. In addition to salt substitutes such as metal salts, taste enhancers can also be added to activate taste receptors located in the human mouth and tongue to compensate for the taste differences caused by the reduction in sodium ion concentration, among which umami and salty taste perception are most closely related. Currently, the most widely produced and used food flavor enhancer in my country is sodium L-glutamate (MSG). Although it is low-cost, has a strong flavor, and can economically and effectively reduce the amount of salt added, MSG still contains sodium ions and cannot meet the true meaning of "reducing sodium salt".
[0008] The concept of salty peptides was proposed by Tada et al. in 1984. The team discovered Orn-Tau-HCl and Lys-Tau-HCl in the process of synthesizing N-terminal analogs of casein hydrolysate. These two peptides do not contain Na + , but has a similar or even higher salinity than NaC1. Summary of the invention

[0052] Sweetener: The term "sweetener" is used herein to refer to a product or composition in a sweetening form that can be directly applied to food, beverages and / or pharmaceutical products for human consumption. A sweetener may contain a single active ingredient, i.e., a single substance with a sweet taste, or it may contain several such active ingredients, i.e., a blend of substances that contribute to sweet taste. The sweetener may be an active ingredient in its substantially pure form, such as a sweet protein that is currently in a form that can be applied to a product intended for human consumption, separated from its production cells. Alternatively, the sweetener may also contain other substances, such as, for example, fillers (e.g., lactose), in addition to the active ingredient. The sweetener may be further blended with other substances before being applied to food or beverage products, or before being sold to final consumers for home purposes such as sweetening of tea or coffee.
[0053] Brazilian sweet: also known as Brazilian sweet protein, bunazhen sweet protein or braziin, refers to the extractable form of the fruit of the West African climbing plant Pentadiplandra brazzeana (Baillon), or its recombinantly produced form. In nature, Brazilian sweet appears in three different forms, with or without glutamine residues or pyroglutamic acid attached to its N-terminus. In the context of the present invention, the Brazilian sweet wild-type sequence preferably comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 36, without glutamine residues or pyroglutamic acid attached to its N-terminus.
[0054] Coding sequence: When used herein, the term "coding sequence" means a polynucleotide sequence that directly specifies the amino acid sequence of its protein product. The boundaries of the coding sequence are usually determined by an open reading frame, which usually begins with the ATG start codon or alternative start codons such as GTG and TTG, and ends with a stop codon such as TAA, TAG and TGA. The coding sequence can be a DNA, cDNA, RNA, synthetic or recombinant nucleotide sequence.
[0055] Expression: in the context of the present invention includes any step involved in the production of the sweet protein of the present invention, including but not limited to transcription, post-transcriptional modification, translation, post-translational modification and secretion.
[0056] Expression vector: refers to a linear or circular nucleic acid molecule construct, which comprises a polynucleotide encoding a protein such as the Brazilian sweet provided herein, and the polynucleotide is operably connected to the additional nucleotides provided for its expression. This additional nucleotide sequence includes, for example, a promoter, a suitable transcription initiation and termination sequence. "Promoter" is a DNA sequence dna that RNA polymerase recognizes, combines and begins to transcribe, and it contains the conserved sequence required for RNA polymerase specific binding and transcription initiation, and most of them are located upstream of the transcription start point, and the promoter itself is not transcribed. In addition, there is the host internal replication ability usually given by the replication origin in the expression vector, and / or with a selection gene that helps to identify the transformant. Usually, the expression vector utilized in the recombinant DNA technique is often a "plasmid" form, i.e., refers to a circular double-stranded DNA ring. Obviously, the vector derived from viruses such as retroviruses, adenoviruses, etc. can also be used.
[0057] Amino acid sequence: Synonymous with the terms "polypeptide", "protein" and "peptide", and used interchangeably. The conventional one-letter code or the three-letter code for amino acid residues is used, with the amino acid sequence presented in the standard amino to carboxyl terminal orientation (ie, N→C).
[0058] Signal peptide: A short (5 to 30 amino acids in length) peptide chain that guides newly synthesized proteins to the secretory pathway. It usually refers to the amino acid sequence at the N-terminus of a newly synthesized polypeptide chain that is used to guide the transmembrane transfer (localization) of proteins.
[0059] Primer design: Use Snapgene software to design the corresponding primers for the constructed plasmid. When designing primers, attention should be paid to the GC content, Tm value, hairpin structure, primer length, primer dimer, primer mismatch, and the introduction of restriction sites.
[0060] The terms "comprising," "including," "having" and their conjugations mean "including but not limited to," but also consist of only the listed elements.
[0061] The definitions provided herein are intended to facilitate understanding of certain terms frequently used herein and are not meant to limit the scope of the present disclosure.
[0062] Since exogenous proteins are easily attacked by yeast proteolytic enzymes during the expression process and degraded, which in turn affects the efficient expression of exogenous proteins in Pichia pastoris, the amount of various proteolytic enzymes in yeast cells will change with the change of nutritional conditions during the culture process, especially during high-density fermentation. A higher content of protease can often be detected in the culture medium. By optimizing the culture conditions, the degradation of recombinant proteins can be reduced to a certain extent. The main measures include: 1) changing the pH, temperature or time of the culture to reduce the activity of the protease; 2) adding some specific amino acids or casein hydrolysates as competitive substrates for the protease or adding specific protease inhibitors. However, these methods are usually limited in effect and are not applicable to all recombinant proteins. Using genetic engineering to knock out the gene encoding a specific proteolytic enzyme in the host cell is an effective way to fundamentally solve the problem of recombinant protein degradation. This method has been widely used in a variety of expression systems including Escherichia coli and yeast.
[0063] Due to the structural complexity of Brazilian sweet, especially the presence of numerous cysteine residues, Brazilian sweet expressed in traditional systems such as Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris cannot fold into the correct conformation. Coupled with the degradation of its own proteases, the prepared Brazilian sweet has low sweetness. Ultimately, the method of preparing Brazilian sweet by genetic engineering cannot meet the demand for low cost of industrial production. In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a method for preparing Brazilian sweet with high sweetness. The present invention knocks out the gene encoding a specific proteolytic enzyme in the host cell, fuses the signal peptide sequence and the Brazilian sweet protein sequence, and uses a protease-deficient Pichia pastoris strain host to express the fusion sequence. The Brazilian sweet protein finally prepared can be fermented at high density, which is convenient for downstream extraction and purification, saving production costs. At the same time, the present invention also applies the prepared Brazilian sweet to scenes such as yogurt drinks and sparkling water, proving that it can well replace sucrose as a sugar substitute sweetener.
[0064] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The present invention found that in the knockout of Pichia pastoris PAS_chr3_1087, PAS_chr4_0584, PAS_chr2-1_0652, PAS_chr4_0113, PAS_chr2-2_0380, PAS_chr4_0913, PAS_chr1-4_0611, PAS_chr3_0953, PAS_chr1-1_0194, PAS_chr1-4_0048, PAS_chr3_0934, PAS_chr3_0633, PRC1 After at least two genes among PAS_chr1-4_0013, PAS_chr1-1_0174, PAS_chr3_0979, PAS_chr1-1_0226 and PAS_chr3_0689 or knocking out the PAS_chr3_0689 gene alone, the growth rate of Pichia pastoris can be increased and the expression yield of foreign proteins can be improved.
[0065] In order to meet the growing demand for low-sugar and reduced-sugar consumption, the inventors used the gene-deficient strain of the present invention to express high-sweetness Brazilian sweet, which has a higher yield and significantly higher sweetness than Brazilian sweet prepared by the prior art. In addition, the expressed protein has no obvious sweetness delay, making the protein closer to sucrose in taste. At the same time, the preparation method meets the needs of slowing down the fermentation degradation of Brazilian sweet protein and meets the needs of industrial production. Since its sweetness is significantly enhanced, its production cost is also significantly reduced.
[0066] The present invention artificially synthesizes a DNA sequence, clones it into an expression plasmid PHKA, and uses a protease-deficient Pichia pastoris strain for recombinant expression. Then, the protein with a purity higher than 90% is obtained by separation and purification by ion exchange chromatography and affinity chromatography. The growth curve experiment of the protease-deficient Pichia pastoris strain proves that the protease-deficient Pichia pastoris strain of the present invention can effectively promote the growth rate of cells. It is used for shake flask experiment test, and compared with the control group, the protease-deficient Pichia pastoris strain can significantly enhance the growth rate of cells. Therefore, the protease-deficient Pichia pastoris strain obtained by the present invention can slow down the protein degradation problem during high-density fermentation to a certain extent during high-density fermentation, and can also reduce the fermentation time, save fermentation cost, thereby reducing production cost, facilitating downstream extraction, and providing high-purity protein.
[0067] The expressed brasil sweet protein of the present invention is very suitable for use as a natural high-intensity non-caloric sugar substitute sweetener. In addition, studies have shown that brasil sweet protein can block the bitterness of other natural and artificial sweeteners. When used in combination with other sweeteners, the taste, intensity and duration of other sweeteners can be significantly improved. Therefore, in many food and beverage applications, brasil sweet protein can not only be used as an independent sweetener, but also as a taste modifier together with other sweeteners and flavorings, and its potential application range is wide and of great significance.
[0068] The salt-reducing protein expressed by the present invention is a salty peptide, which is derived from the food itself. It is a type of oligopeptide with salty taste among flavor polypeptides. Adding an appropriate amount of salty peptide can reduce the salt content from 0.9% to 0.3%, and basically maintain palatability. Salty peptide is a healthy and safe salty taste enhancement product with umami taste; they are composed of amino acids and are harmless to the human body. The salt-reducing protein of the present invention can be prepared in large quantities by microbial fermentation. Salty peptide is a natural salting agent with certain salt-enhancing and fresh-enhancing effects. While responding to the United Nations WHO's low-sodium and salt-reducing recommendations, it also meets consumers' demand for natural products. Therefore, the salt-reducing protein developed by the present invention is of great significance in responding to the global demand for low-sodium and salt-reducing. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0202] Growth rate determination of knockout strains
[0203] The growth curve is the group growth law of single-cell microorganisms when cultured in liquid under certain environmental conditions. When measuring, a certain number of pure microbial strains are generally inoculated into a certain volume of sterilized, suitable fresh culture medium, cultured under suitable temperature conditions, and the number of bacteria in the culture medium is measured by taking samples at regular intervals. 600 (OD is the optical density of the bacterial suspension measured by a photoelectric colorimeter based on the relationship that the number of bacterial cells in the culture solution is proportional to the turbidity and inversely proportional to the transmittance) as the ordinate and the growth time as the abscissa to draw a growth curve. The growth curve is generally divided into four periods: the delay period, the logarithmic period, the stable period, and the decay period. Determining the growth curve of microorganisms under certain culture conditions has certain guiding significance for actual production.

[0209] Example 9
