Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical fields of genetic engineering and molecular biology, and particularly relates to an AraC mutant that senses metal ion Cd(II) in submarines, a submarine-detecting microbial sensor constructed thereby, and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] As an important part of modern navies, submarines are characterized by high concealment and strong striking power. The main structure of a submarine is composed of metal, and in a seawater salt solution system, metal ions will be released around the ship's hull through oxidation-reduction, etc. These metal ions can be sensed by microbial-related sensing elements and then detected.

[0003] In cell-based biosensors, biological reactions are converted into physicochemical signals by a sensing module. In these systems, reports such as color development, bioluminescence, and fluorescence are widely used. The selection of a reporter gene should take into account sensitivity and measurement convenience. Since the transcription of a reporter gene is controlled by a promoter / operator, the expression level of the reporter gene is designed to be proportional to the sensing signal. Currently, there are two different reporting methods. (1) The reporter gene encodes an enzyme that can catalyze the formation of a measurable product. For example, β-galactosidase and luciferase catalyze the production of colored products and light, respectively. (2) The protein itself is the product to be measured (e.g., green fluorescent protein [GFP]). In the present invention, after successfully establishing an electron metabolic transfer pathway for microorganisms to sense metal ions through the construction and optimization of a microbial electrical signal reporting element, and coupling extracellular electron transfer with an in vitro electrochemical device, the detection of electrical signals induced by metal sensing is achieved through electrochemical means such as cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry, and further research is conducted to explore the effects of different sensing elements, different metal ions, and different metal ion concentrations on the intensity of electrochemical signals.

[0004] Wild-type AraC-P BAD system: The transcription factor AraC can naturally respond to L-arabinose. In the absence of L-arabinose, the AraC dimer binds to the I 1 and O 2 sites, forming a DNA loop upstream of the P BAD promoter to inhibit transcription; after binding L-arabinose, the AraC dimer changes its conformation, enabling binding to adjacent I 1 and I 2 half-sites, activating transcription. An AraC mutant obtained by mutation can bind to a compound other than L-arabinose, thereby activating the transcriptional activity of the P BAD promoter, making the AraC mutant induced by other compounds. Compared with a promoter that directly senses metal ions, this AraC-P BADThe system has an amplification effect and its signal is stronger. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide an AraC mutant for sensing metal ion Cd(II) in submarines, a microbial sensor for submarine detection constructed therefrom, and applications thereof.

[0018] (3) Transform the recombinant plasmid pACYC-AraCmt-Cd-PBAD-CymA into the host Escherichia coli to obtain the recombinant strain E. coli / pACYC-AraCmt-Cd-PBAD-CymA, which is the submarine-detecting microbial sensor.

[0019] The present invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned AraC mutant or the above-mentioned submarine-detecting microbial sensor in the preparation of an electrochemical device for real-time detection of submarine metal ions.

[0021] Furthermore, the concentration of the metal ions of the submarine detected by the electrochemical device is not less than 5 μmol / L.

[0022] Furthermore, the submarine metal ions are Cd(II) ions.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0042] Three PCR products were ligated to the digested pACYCDuet-1 plasmid by seamless cloning using 2×Clon Express Mix (Vazyme, catalog number C115). The reaction system is as follows:

[0043]

[0044] The reaction system was incubated at 50 °C for 30 min. The products were transformed into competent E. coli DH5α cells and spread on LB solid plates containing 34 mg / L chloramphenicol. Positive clones were screened by PCR, and the recombinant plasmid pACYCDuet-1-T7-AraC-EGFP-PBAD was extracted from the positive clones.

[0045] 2. Construction of the AraC mutant library

[0046] (1) Error-prone polymerase chain reaction (error-prone PCR) was performed using the vector pACYCDuet-1-T7-AraC-EGFP-PBAD as a template to amplify the M-AraC fragment with random mutation sites by primers AraC-F and AraC-R. The PCR amplification system is as follows:

When obvious colonies grew on the transferred plate, the plate was observed under a UV lamp for fluorescence, and single colonies with obvious fluorescence were screened out, which were the AraC mutants responsive to Cd(II).

[0062] (2) Secondary screening by microplate reader

[0063] Single colonies obtained from the primary screening were picked and activated by overnight culture in a shaker at 37 °C. The next day, they were transferred to 10 mL of M9Y medium and cultured until OD 600 = 0.2, and then Cd(II) with concentrations of 0 μmol / L, 5 μmol / L, and 10 μmol / L were added respectively. 200 μL of the induced bacterial solution was taken and placed in a 96-well microplate, and then placed in a microplate reader (Biotek) for shaking culture at 30 °C. The fluorescence intensity (RFU) was monitored in real time at a constant temperature, and the detection was carried out once every 30 min for a total of 12 h.

[0064] The results are as Figure 1As shown, among the 20 initially screened strains, one strain M-16 was selected. Its fluorescence intensity (RFU) showed different changes under the action of different concentrations of Cd(II). The higher the concentration of Cd(II), the higher the RFU value.

[0086] (1) Construction of the detection device

[0087] A three - electrode electrochemical system was adopted, where the working electrode, reference electrode and counter electrode were a glassy carbon electrode, an Ag / AgCl electrode and a platinum wire respectively, and a PBS solution containing various metal ions was used as the electrolyte. First, the system was left in the open - circuit state for 1 h, the scanning rate was set at 1 mV / s, the scanning range for anodic testing was - 0.7~+0.2 V (vs.SCE), and the scanning range for cathodic testing was - 0.4~+0.4 V (vs.SCE). Each scan was repeated for 3 cycles. Usually, the curves of the second and third scans basically coincided, and the data of the third scan were taken for analysis. After the constructed potential - detecting microbial sensor E.coli / pACYC - AraCmt - Cd - PBAD - CymA was cultured and the cells were collected, they were added to the electrochemical system for CV testing and signal acquisition.

[0088] (2) Detection with electrical signals as the output

[0089] A buffer solution with a metal ion Cd(II) concentration of 5 μmol / L was introduced into the constructed device, and an electrochemical workstation was used to detect the change in the electrical signal output of the microbial fuel cell, which was detected once every 1 hour for a total of 12 hours.

[0090] The results are as Figure 3 shown. In the presence of 5 μmol / L metal ion Cd(II), there was a significant difference in the electrical signal output of the microbial sensor containing the electrical signal reporting element compared with the case without metal ions. The detected voltage reached above 0.25 V after 6 hours, and the current density decreased to a steady value after all metal ions were excluded later.
