Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fungal molecular biology, and more specifically, relates to the Ganoderma lucidum peroxidase GlDyP gene and its encoded protein and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] DyPs (Dye-decolorizing Peroxidases) are a class of heme-containing peroxidases first discovered in the basidiomycete *Bjerkandera adusta*, capable of degrading a variety of dyes. Their distal heme region differs from other heme peroxidases such as manganese peroxidase (MnP), vertabolic peroxidase (VP), and lignin peroxidase (LiP), thus making DyPs a novel type of heme peroxidase. DyPs are widely distributed in the genomes of fungi, bacteria, and archaea. Based on sequence alignment, DyPs are classified into four types in the PeroxiBase database: types A, B, and C are primarily derived from bacteria and archaea, while type D is of fungal origin. However, based on the classification of structural alignment, DyPs are divided into three categories: P (primary) refers to the former B category, which has the most compact structure; I (intermediate) refers to the former A category, with additional sequences; and V (advanced) refers to the former C and D categories, which also have additional sequences.

[0003] DyPs exhibit broad substrate specificity, capable of degrading not only typical peroxidase substrates such as ABTS and phenolic compounds, but also a variety of complex dyes. Furthermore, in prokaryotes, DyPs have been confirmed to possess physiological functions in degrading lignin. The role of DyPs in fungal biology is uncertain, but it has been reported that they may also be an important part of the lignin-degrading system in white-rot fungi. For example, DyP purified from Auricularia auricula-judae culture can oxidize the non-phenolic lignin model compound resveratrol (VA); the purified DyP protein obtained from heterologous expression of the Irpexlacteus DyP gene in Escherichia coli can oxidize the phenolic lignin model compound 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (DMP). Currently, research on fungal DyPs is limited, and our specific functions and applications are poorly understood. Therefore, enriching the diversity of fungal DyPs and clarifying their functions is of great significance.

[0004] Ganoderma lucidum, commonly known as "red Ganoderma," is a typical white-rot fungus that can transform lignocellulose-rich agricultural and forestry waste into fruiting bodies with both medicinal and edible value. In lignocellulose, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin are cross-linked to form a robust network structure, with lignin coating the outer layers of cellulose and hemicellulose. Degrading lignin effectively promotes the release of cellulose and hemicellulose, which is key to the efficient utilization of lignocellulose. Studies have shown that Ganoderma lucidum strains can produce dye decolorizing peroxidase, and the expression level of the GlDyP gene is significantly higher during the mycelial growth stage than in other developmental stages. We hypothesize that the GlDyP gene may also play an important role in substrate utilization, specifically in degrading lignin. Summary of the Invention

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. In the following embodiments, operations not described in detail are routine biological experimental procedures, which can be performed with reference to molecular biology experimental manuals and existing publicly available journal articles, or according to the kit and product instructions. Unless otherwise specified, the materials and reagents used in the following embodiments are commercially available.

[0024] Example 1: Cloning of the peroxidase GlDyP gene

[0025] 1. By analyzing the transcriptome data of four developmental stages of Ganoderma lucidum (Liu D, Sun X, Diao W, Qi X, Bai Y, Yu X, Li L, Fang H, Chen Z, Liu Q, Liang C. Comparative transcriptome analysis revealed candidate genes involved in fruiting body development and sporulation in Ganoderma lucidum. Arch Microbiol, 2022, 204(8): 514.), a dye decolorization peroxidase gene, namely GlDyP, was screened out, which was expressed at a high level only in the mycelial stage.

[0026] 2. Total RNA was extracted from the mycelial stage of Ganoderma lucidum using the KK Ultrafast Plant Total RNA Extraction Kit, and then reverse transcribed into cDNA using the HiScript III 1st Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (+gDNA wiper).

[0027] 3. Based on the sequence of the GlDyP gene in the transcriptome, the following specific primers were designed and synthesized:

[0028] 1-F: 5′-ATGGCTCCCACCGTAGCACC-3′:

[0029] 1-R: 5′-TCATGCTAACGCGAAAGTAC-3′.

[0030] 4. PCR amplification was performed using cDNA as a template, and the results were detected by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure. The PCR product with the correct fragment size was purified and ligated into a T vector, which was then transformed into E. coli DH5α. Single clones were picked, and after PCR detection, they were sent to Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd. for sequencing. The nucleotide sequence of the GlDyP gene was 1461 bp, as shown in SEQ ID NO.1, and the corresponding amino acid sequence of the encoded protein was shown in SEQ ID NO.2.

[0031] Example 2: Heterologous expression of the GlDyP gene

[0032] 1. The GlDyP gene fragment was ligated to the expression vector pET-32a(+) via homologous recombination (the vector was digested with EcoR1 and Xho1 enzymes) and transformed into *E. coli* BL21(DE3). The homologous recombination primer sequences are as follows:

[0033] 2-F:GCTGATATCGGATCCGAATTCATGGCTCCCACCGTAGCAC;

[0034] 2-R: GTGGTGGTGGTGGTGCTCGAGTGCTAACGCGAAAGTACTGCG.

[0035] Single colonies were selected, and after PCR testing, they were sent to Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd. for sequencing. Single colonies with correct sequencing were amplified, plasmids were extracted, and enzyme digestion was performed for verification. Single colonies with correct sequencing and enzyme digestion verification were preserved.

[0036] 2. Inoculate the BL21 strain containing the recombinant plasmid into 20 mL of LB medium and culture overnight at 37°C with shaking at 220 rpm. Then, transfer the 1% strain to 100 mL of LB medium and culture at 37°C with shaking at 220 rpm for approximately 4 hours to allow the OD to adjust. 600 The concentration was between 0.4 and 0.6. Then, IPTG, the inducer, was added to a final concentration of 0.1 mM and induced overnight at 16 °C (120 r / min) and 28 °C (220 r / min), respectively, to select the appropriate induction temperature. The BL21 strain containing the empty vector was used as a control.

[0037] 3. Collect the induced bacterial cells by centrifugation at 8000 rpm for 10 min, resuspend in PBS buffer, centrifuge again to collect the cells, resuspend in 20 mL Tris-HCl buffer (pH = 7.4, 0.5 M NaCl), then add 1 mM of the protease inhibitor phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and sonicate in an ice-water bath for 20 min (200 W, 6 s on, 6 s off). Perform SDS-PAGE electrophoresis analysis on the total protein, supernatant, and precipitate. The results are shown below. Figure 2 As shown, compared with the control, a specific band appeared at a position slightly above 65 kDa, consistent with the expected molecular weight of the target protein and the His fusion expression protein, and the expression level in the supernatant was higher at 16℃ induction; Western blot analysis was performed on the supernatant of the fragmented recombinant protein and the empty vector, and the results are as follows. Figure 3 As shown, compared with the control, a specific band appeared at a position slightly above 65 kDa, consistent with the expected molecular weight of the target protein and the His fusion expressed protein. This indicates that the dye-decolorized peroxidase protein can be efficiently expressed in E. coli BL21.

[0038] Example 3: Purification of GlDyP protein

[0039] Based on the results of Example 2, 16℃ induction was selected for protein purification. The buffer in the Ni-NTA chromatography column was drained, the column was washed with Tris-HCl buffer, and then the supernatant was added. The flow rate was controlled to allow for slow efflux (ensuring sufficient protein binding to the membrane), and the flow-through was collected. Elution was performed with buffers containing different concentrations of imidazole (0 mM, 20 mM, 50 mM, 100 mM, 250 mM). The eluent was tested with Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 until it did not turn blue; then the next concentration of eluent was used. The purer protein obtained was selected and concentrated using ultrafiltration. The final purified protein was purified by SDS-PAGE, and the results are shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the enzyme purity has met the requirements for enzyme property analysis and can be used for subsequent determination of enzyme properties.
