Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a yeast interspecies shuttle vector and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The shuttling of DNA between species can expand the application scope of genetic manipulation tools in organisms. For example, yeast-bacteria shuttle vectors can use the high copy number of bacterial plasmids to prepare a large number of vectors and then transform them into yeast cells for gene expression. Yeast-mammalian cell shuttle vectors can realize the construction of artificial chromosomes in yeast and then transfect them into mammalian cells for gene expression. The model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae has mature genetic manipulation tools and is widely used in DNA assembly and editing. In contrast, some other types of yeast, such as Pichia pastoris, Yarrowia lipolytica and other unconventional yeasts, have relatively scarce genetic manipulation tools, making it difficult to achieve large-scale genetic modification involving multiple genes. Expanding the application scope of genetic manipulation tools for Saccharomyces cerevisiae can improve the scale and efficiency of genetic manipulation of yeast that is difficult to transform.

[0003] DNA shuttling requires the stability of the target DNA in the cells of both the donor and recipient species.

[0096] The PCR reaction system is:

[0097] Table 1: KOD One TM PCR Master Mix PCR Reaction System

[0098]

[0099] X, fill the total reaction volume to 50.0μL. Y, the amount of template added is adjusted according to the type of template to achieve the best effect. Generally speaking, the amount of genomic DNA added is about 200.0ng / 50.0μL, the amount of plasmid DNA added is about 50.0ng / 50.0μL, the amount of bacterial liquid added is about 4.0μL / 50.0μL, and the volume of solid colony template is negligible.
