Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the T7 expression system with IPTG as the induction method obviously cannot achieve the purpose of industrial use, and its reason is (1) the price of IPTG is expensive, (2) IPTG is not metabolized by bacterial cells, which easily causes contamination of the fermentation broth and makes the fermentation product Purification is not easy, (3) IPTG is potentially toxic, so it is not suitable for the production of medical products (Figge et al., Cell, 52:713-722, 1988), (4) because IPTG needs the lacY protein of bacterial cells It is transported into cells by active transport, so using a non-saturated amount of IPTG to induce will result in the induced cell population containing induced and non-induced cell populations. This non-uniform state causes the fermented strains to produce different Stability, and it is difficult to achieve the purpose of finely regulating the gene expression of the strain. (5) Due to the insufficient regulation of the lacUV5 promoter, the strain BL21 (DE3) produces a small amount of T7 RNA polymerase under the condition of non-induction, The target gene product that is cloned on the plastid and expressed under the control of the T7 promoter is produced, especially when the target gene product is potentially toxic to the host cell, the growth of the cell will be inhibited, and then the plastid containing the target gene will not be produced. Stable phenomenon (Studier et al., Methods in Enzymology, 185:60-89, 1991), these shortcomings obviously limit the industrial applicability of the T7 expression system

Embodiment ( 1

[0034] Embodiment (1), construction of recombinant strain BL21 (G2)

[0035] In order to develop a heat-inducible way to control the expression system of T7, firstly, a recombinant strain will be constructed so that its chromosome contains a lambda P L and P R Dual-promoter regulated T7 gene 1 and a heat-sensitive cI857 repressor gene.

[0036] A. Cloning operation of T7 gene 1

[0037] (1) Bacteria used for gene cloning and shake flask culture method

[0038] Escherichia coli DH5 α (deoR endA1 gyr96 hsdR17supE444 thiΔ(lacIZYA-argF 169) recA1 lacZM15) was used in the gene cloning process. When cultivating strains in liquid state, firstly, a few colonies were picked from the solid petri dish to the shake flask containing nutrient medium Culture overnight at 30°C in a water bath rotating culture tank at 200 revolutions per minute, take out the bacterial solution in a hundred-fold diluted volume the next day and inoculate it into a shaker flask containing fresh nutrient matrix...

Embodiment ( 2

[0048] Embodiment (two), carry out the detection pattern of shaking flask scale with strain BL21 (G2)

[0049] To test the feasibility of recombinant strain BL21(G2) producing heterologous recombinant protein, here we choose the production of carbamoylase as the detection mode. The biggest challenge in the production of heterologous protein is that the protein is easy to form inclusion bodies and has the characteristics of poisoning cells, and the carbamylase from A.radiobacter is a heterologous protein, and it is very easy to form inclusion bodies body and potential toxicity, so this protein as a production model is sufficient to provide the most stringent detection method for the system constructed in the present invention.

[0050] A. Training method

[0051] The same as the cultivation method of item A in the construction of the recombinant strain BL21 (G2), use shake flasks to cultivate the strain.

[0052] B. Carbamylase Enzyme Activity Analysis

[0053] The analysis ...

Embodiment

[0085] Example (3), using heat-induced control of T7 expression system to produce recombinant protein in laboratory fermenter scale.

[0086] The practicality of a gene expression system determines that it is still feasible when it is scaled up. Based on this, we use the fed batch fermentation method to test the potential practicality of the strains developed in the present invention.

[0087] A. Strain culture and nutrient matrix formula

[0088] A 5L laboratory-scale fermenter (Biostat, B. Braun, Germany) was used for the culture of scale-up strains. The operating conditions of the fermenter were set at 30° C., pH 7.0, and the dissolved oxygen was 15% of the saturated dissolved oxygen. The bacterial classification that cultivates 300mL with shaking flask earlier is as inoculum (embodiment (one) item A), and the composition of nutrient matrix is ​​that every liter of solution contains 3g potassium phosphate, 6g disodium phosphate, 1g ammonium chloride, 0.248g Magnesium sulf...

Abstract

The invention discloses a controlling method for constructing a recombination bacterial BL21(G2) for evoked preparation of T7 RNA polymerase by heat, the chromosome of the bacterial includes a T7 gene controlled by lambda P[L] and P[R] double promoters and a cI857 inhibitory gene, the T7 RNA polymerase produced by the recombination bacterial can evoke and activate the T7 promotor, thus manufacturing the destination gene product cloned at the downstream of the promotor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for inducing and controlling the gene expression vector (expression vector) in Escherichia coli. More specifically, the present invention is a method for controlling the T7 expression system in a heat-induced manner. This method further includes a segmental formula Feed-fed batch fermentation strategies for high-volume production of recombinant proteins. Background technique [0002] The use of biological cells to produce recombinant proteins (recombinant proteins) with commercial value or medical use is an extremely important and economically forward-looking biotechnology industry. Generally speaking, biological cells that can be used for protein production include microorganisms, insects, animal and plant cells, etc. Among them, the method of using microbial cells to produce recombinant proteins is more economically competitive because microbial cells are easier to culture in large quantities , Fast growth a...
