Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of environmental microbial technology, and in particular to a culture medium and a culture method for increasing the yield of penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme. Background Art
[0002] Penicillin G sodium (PGNa) is a highly effective β-lactam antibiotic with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. Since its discovery in 1928, it has been widely used to treat bacterial infections in humans and animals. However, penicillin G sodium has low absorption and utilization in the body and rapid excretion, resulting in approximately 53–85% of penicillin G sodium being released into the environment through the parent compound or excreta after use. The overuse of antibiotics accelerates the accumulation of penicillin G sodium in the environment, inducing the emergence of numerous antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARBs) and resistance genes (ARGs), leading to the serious global problem of antibiotic resistance. Pathogenic bacteria carrying ARGs can horizontally transfer ARGs between bacterial cells via mobile genetic elements such as plasmids, integrons, and transposons, posing a serious threat to public health and ecosystems. Effectively removing penicillin G sodium residues from the environment has become a critical environmental issue that requires urgent resolution.
[0003] Microbial degradation has become an effective method for addressing penicillin G sodium contamination due to its high efficiency, low cost, and simple operation. To date, only a few bacteria have been isolated capable of degrading penicillin G: Paracoccus KDSPL-02, Klebsiella pneumoniae Z-1, and Serratia marcescens R1. Current research on penicillin G sodium biodegradation remains limited to strain screening and cellular degradation, with limited studies at the enzymatic and molecular levels. Because enzymatic degradation does not induce resistant strains or transmit resistance genes, it represents a sustainable, environmentally friendly, and promising technology for the harmless treatment of antibiotic contamination. Given the challenges of penicillin G sodium's clinical prescription and overuse in livestock farming, as well as antibiotic residues in fermentation residues, the search for more efficient and environmentally friendly enzymes for the biodegradation of penicillin G sodium is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a culture medium and a culture method for producing extracellular penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme. The culture medium and culture method of the present invention can significantly increase the yield of penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme produced by fermentation.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following solutions:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an optimized culture medium for producing sodium penicillin G degrading enzyme, comprising a carbon source, a nitrogen source, and metal ions. The main components and concentrations thereof are as follows: 5-30 g / L galactose, 1-10 g / L yeast extract, 1-10 g / L ammonium sulfate, 1-10 g / L MgSO4 . 7H2O 0.1-2.5g / L,NaCl 0.5-1.0g / L,KH2PO40.5-1.0g / L,K2HPO41.5-1.0g / L, Tween-80 0.00-0.25%.

[0009] Furthermore, the inducer is meropenem, the addition time is 6-18 hours and the final concentration is 0-1 mmol / L.
[0010] The preferred inducer is meropenem, which is added for 9 hours and has a final concentration of 0.75 mmol / L.
[0011] In a third aspect, the present invention provides a method for culturing Sphingobacterium to produce penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme, the culturing method comprising inoculating Sphingobacterium into the culture medium and inducer as described in the first and second aspects for culturing.
[0012] Preferably, the initial pH value of the culture medium is 5-10, the seed age is 6-36h, the inoculation amount is 1-25% (v / v), the culture temperature is 15-40°C, the shaking speed is 140-240r / min, and the liquid volume is 10-110mL.

[0015] In summary, the present invention discloses the following technical effects:
[0016] When sphingobacterium is cultured using the novel culture medium of the present invention, the activity of penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme reaches a maximum of 682.82 U / mL in shake flask fermentation, which is increased by about 13 times.
[0017] This study selects the optimal carbon source, nitrogen source, and metal ion based on single-factor optimization screening, and optimizes the original initial culture medium composition using orthogonal experimental methods. Furthermore, the inductive agent meropenem is creatively added during the culture process, and a suitable culture method is proposed, which is of great significance for the industrial production of penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme by Sphingobacterium.

[0031] The materials and methods used in the following examples generally include:
[0032] 1.1 Materials
[0033] 1.1.1 Starting strain
[0034] The experimental strain Sphingobacterium was isolated independently.
[0035] 1.1.2 Culture medium
[0036] Basic enzyme production medium: 0.5 g / L NaCl, 1.5 g / L KH2PO4, 0.5 g / L K2HPO4, 0.5 g / L MgSO 4. 7H2O, 10 g / L glucose, 5 g / L peptone.
[0037] LB medium: 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L peptone, 10 g / L NaCl.
[0038] PBS substrate buffer solution: Penicillin G sodium was dissolved in 0.1 mol / L, pH 7 phosphate buffer solution prepared with NaH2PO 4. 4H2O and Na2HPO 4. 4H2O and Na2HPO
[0039] 1.2 Method
[0040] 1.2.1 Biomass OD 600
[0041] The fermentation broth stock solution was diluted to an appropriate multiple to determine the OD 600 on a spectrophotometer. OD is the measured absorbance value * dilution multiple.
[0042] 1.2.2 Penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme activity determination
[0043] 0.5 mL of 1200 mg / L penicillin G sodium substrate buffer solution was mixed with 0.4 mL of PBS buffer solution, incubated at 37°C for 5 min, 0.1 mL of enzyme solution filtered through a 0.22 μm filter was added, and shaken in a water bath at 37°C for 10 min, and finally 1 mL of acetonitrile was added to terminate the reaction. The residual amount of penicillin G sodium in the reaction system was detected by HPLC to calculate the activity of the penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme. In addition, 1 enzyme activity unit was defined as the amount of enzyme required to catalyze 1 μmol of penicillin G sodium per minute. The degradation enzyme activity calculation formula is as follows:
[0044]
[0045] Where C1 is the initial concentration of penicillin G sodium (mg / L), Ce is the residual concentration of penicillin G sodium in the solution (mg / L), Vt is the total volume of the reaction solution (mL), n is the dilution multiple of the enzyme solution, △t is the reaction time (min), and Ve is the volume of the enzyme solution (mL).
[0046] 1.2.3 Penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme production
[0047] Firstly, the strain S. phytometiculum was inoculated into 250 mL flask containing 50 mL LB medium, and incubated at 37 °C and 220 r / min for 24 h. The culture was centrifuged at 8000 r / min for 5 min, then washed with 0.9% sterile normal saline for 3 times, and added with normal saline again to prepare a bacterial suspension. Finally, 5.0 mL of the bacterial suspension was added into 250 mL flask containing 50 mL basal medium, and incubated at 37 °C in a shaking incubator at 220 r / min for 18 h.
[0048] Design of medium component optimization experiment for producing penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme by strain S. phytometiculum
[0049] On the basis of the original initial fermentation medium, the carbon source, nitrogen source and metal ions were changed, and nine different common carbon sources were selected: glucose, galactose, fructose, xylose, arabinose, maltose, sucrose, lactose and soluble starch to screen the best carbon source. Then the optimal carbon source was selected for concentration optimization, and the carbon source concentration was set to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 g / L; nine different common nitrogen sources were selected: peptone, yeast extract, beef extract, urea, soybean meal, ammonium sulfate, diammonium hydrogen citrate, ammonium chloride and corn steep liquor. The optimal nitrogen source was selected for concentration optimization, and the nitrogen source concentration was set to 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 g / L. Since most microorganisms prefer to use complex nitrogen sources, the nitrogen sources that promote enzyme production were combined for use; nine different common metal ions were selected: MgSO4·7H2O, CoCl·6H2O, MnSO4·H2O, BaCl2, CaCl2, CuSO4, ZnSO4·H2O, FeSO4·7H2O and Al(NO3)3·9H2O. The optimal metal ion addition amount was optimized, and the addition amount gradient was set to: 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 g / L
[0050] As shown in Figure 1 a, the best carbon source for S. phytometiculum to produce penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme was galactose. As shown in Figure 2 a-b, the enzyme activity measured when galactose was used as a single carbon source was higher than that when glucose was used as a single carbon source, and the combined carbon source of galactose and glucose. When the concentration of galactose was 15 g / L, the degrading enzyme activity reached a peak value of 193.25 U / mL. As shown in Figure 1 b, yeast extract, beef extract and ammonium sulfate could all promote the production of enzyme by strain SQW1. As shown in Figure 2 b, the combined nitrogen sources all promoted the production of enzyme and growth of the strain to different extents, among which the combination of yeast extract and ammonium sulfate more obviously promoted the secretion of degrading enzyme. As shown in Figure 1 c, the enzyme production was higher under the action of Mg 2+ . Figure 2 a shows that Mg 2+When the addition amount was 1.0 g / L, the enzyme production reached its peak.
[0051] Example 2 Orthogonal Experimental Design of Culture Medium Components
[0052] Based on the above experimental results, galactose was selected as the carbon source, yeast extract and ammonium sulfate as the nitrogen sources, and MgSO4·7H2O as the metal ion for orthogonal optimization of the carbon and nitrogen sources and metal ion addition content (Table 1).
[0053] Table 1 Orthogonal optimization of enzyme production medium components
[0054]
[0055] The results are shown in Table S1. A4C2B2D2 is the optimal level combination. The final optimized culture medium composition is 20g / L galactose, 8g / L yeast extract powder, 10g / L ammonium sulfate, 0.5g / LMgSO 4. 7H2O, 0.5g / LNaCl, 0.5g / L KH2PO4, 1.5g / LK2HPO4.
[0056]
[0057]
[0058] Example 3 Effects of surfactant additives and inducers on the secretion of degradative enzymes of bacterial strains
[0059] Based on the results of the culture medium optimization experiment, the effect of the surfactant Tween-80 on the secretion of degradative enzymes was investigated. Tween-80 was added at a concentration of 0-0.25%. The effects of 12 inducers (guaiacol, ferulic acid, penicillin G sodium, amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalexin, ceftazidime, cephalothin, cefotaxime sodium, cefoxitin, aztreonam, and meropenem) at a final concentration of 0.5 mmol / L were also investigated. The effects of the time (6-18 hours) and concentration (0-1 mmol / L) of inducer addition on the secretion of degradative enzymes were also studied.
[0060] like Figure 3 As we know, 0.05% Tween-80 promoted the growth of Sphingobacterium and enhanced the activity of its degradation enzymes. Figure 4 As shown in a, compared with the blank treatment without the addition of inducer, meropenem can strongly induce the production of penicillin G sodium degrading enzyme, with the enzyme activity reaching 338.15U / mL, but it will inhibit the growth of bacteria to a certain extent. After 12 hours of incubation, the degrading enzyme activity showed a significant increase after adding 0.75mM meropenem for 6 hours, reaching 380.3U / mL ( Figure 4b). After 9 hours of incubation, the degradation enzyme activity increased significantly after adding meropenem for 6 hours, reaching 678.85 U / mL ( Figure 4 c).
[0061] Example 4: Effect of Culture Method Optimization on Degradation Enzyme Activity
[0062] Based on the above experimental results, the effects of culture conditions on the secretion of penicillin G sodium degrading enzymes were further investigated. The effects of different culture conditions, such as the initial pH of the culture medium (5-10), seed age (6-36 hours), inoculum size (1-25%, v / v), culture temperature (15-40°C), shaker speed (140-240 rpm), and liquid volume (10-110 mL), on the secretion of penicillin G sodium degrading enzymes were studied.
[0063] like Figure 5 The optimal culture method shown is: initial pH 7, inoculation size 5%, culture temperature 30°C, rotation speed 200 r / min, inoculation age 24 h and liquid volume 30 mL.
[0064] Determination of the curve of penicillin G sodium enzyme produced by Example 5
[0065] Based on the above experimental results, the seed liquid was inoculated into the culture medium and cultured for 24 hours. Samples were taken every 3 hours to measure the activity of the degradation enzyme, and enzyme production graphs of the basic culture medium, optimized culture medium and culture medium after adding meropenem were obtained.
[0066] like Figure 6 As shown, under optimized culture conditions, meropenem was added for induction after 9 hours of fermentation. After 3 hours, the degradation enzyme activity reached its peak, reaching 682.82 U / mL. Compared with basal medium and optimized medium, the induction-induced enzyme activity showed a significant increase, increasing the yield by approximately 13 times.
