Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a B family lactamase mutant and an immobilization method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ampicillin, a type of lactam antibiotic, has been widely used around the world due to its wide antibacterial range and effective therapeutic properties. This antibiotic is mainly produced through microbial metabolism or artificial synthesis, and is mainly used for the treatment and prevention of animal diseases and to promote the growth and development of animals. However, the widespread use of ampicillin has had a significant impact on the environment: inadequately treated ampicillin is discharged into the environment through waste and sewage from the livestock and poultry industry, resulting in its long-term accumulation in the natural environment, contributing to the widespread distribution of drug-resistant genes and bacteria, which has aroused widespread concern about the environment and public health.

[0003] It is particularly noteworthy that, as a common beta-lactam antibiotic, the residue of ampicillin in the environment not only threatens the safety of water sources, but may also aggravate the development of drug-resistant bacteria. Therefore, the development of an efficient ampicillin removal method is crucial for environmental protection. At present, biodegradation, especially enzyme-catalyzed degradation technology, is considered to be a powerful means to deal with this type of pollution due to its advantages of low cost, high efficiency and no secondary pollution. However, the prior art lacks an enzyme with good stability, high catalytic activity and the ability to effectively degrade ampicillin. Summary of the invention

[0091] The following examples were tested using mutants with higher enzyme activity.

[0092] Example 2 Immobilization Optimization

[0093] 1.1 Optimization of sodium alginate concentration:

[0094] (1) Preparation of blank group and experimental group microspheres

[0095] The final concentrations of sodium alginate were 2.5%, 2%, 1.5%, 1%, and 0.5%, respectively. The following are the different proportions added to 1 mL of sodium alginate-enzyme mixture of different concentrations:

[0096] 2.5% SA: 600μL 4.17% sodium alginate solution + 400μL mutant enzyme solution

[0097] 2% SA: 479.6 μL 4.17% sodium alginate solution + 120.4 μL Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer + 400 μL mutant enzyme solution

[0098] 1.5% SA: 500 μL 3% sodium alginate solution + 100 μL Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer + 400 μL mutant enzyme solution

[0099] 1% SA: 333 μL 3% sodium alginate solution + 267 μL Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer + 400 μL mutant enzyme solution

[0100] 0.5% SA: 167 μL 3% sodium alginate solution + 433 μL Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer + 400 μL mutant enzyme solution

[0101] For the blank group, the mutant enzyme solution was replaced with Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer.

[0102] Preparation of microspheres: prepare 5 culture dishes, add 5 mL of 2.0% CaCl2 solution into the dishes, and slowly drip the above sodium alginate-enzyme mixture into the culture dishes containing CaCl2 solution 1 mm from the liquid surface with a syringe. After standing for 10 minutes to immobilize, rinse with 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) three times and store the microspheres in EP tubes, mark them, and put them on ice for later use. The blank group is operated in the same way as above.

[0103] (2) Detection

[0104] The final concentration of the substrate (ampicillin) is fixed at 150 μg / mL. Prepare an EP tube rack and 1.5 mL EP tubes. Perform three parallel experiments and one blank experiment for each group of experiments, for a total of four groups, i.e., 4 EP tubes as one group of experiments. Number the EP tubes and mark them. Use a 1 mL pipette to draw 700 μL Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer into the EP tube, then draw 300 μL 500 μg / mL ampicillin into the EP tube, preheat it in a 40°C water bath for two minutes, take out the EP tube after preheating, take out the prepared blank group and experimental group microspheres, quickly add 3 microspheres, and immediately put it back into the 40°C water bath to react for 3 minutes after adding the microspheres. Use a spectrophotometer with a wavelength of 235 nm to detect the corresponding OD value of each group and record it. Repeat the above operation for each group of experiments. After obtaining the data, perform calculations.

[0105] according to Figure 1As shown, the relative activity of the enzyme after immobilization showed a normal distribution when the sodium alginate concentration changed in the range of 0.5%-2.5%. At 1.5%, the relative activity of the enzyme was the highest. Under the conditions of other sodium alginate concentrations, the relative enzyme activity of the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme solution was above 70%. That is, the optimal concentration of sodium alginate for the immobilization of the VIM-1 mutant enzyme solution was 1.5%.

[0106] 1.2 Optimization of CaCl2 concentration

[0107] (1) Preparation of blank group and experimental group microspheres

[0108] The final concentration of sodium alginate is 1.5%, and the immobilization time is fixed at 10 min. Because the CaCl2 concentration is different during immobilization, the prepared CaCl2 concentration is 3%. Different concentrations of CaCl2 need to be diluted with purified water. The following gives the dilution ratios of 10 mL of different concentrations of CaCl2:

[0109] 2.5%CaCl2: 10mL 2.5%CaCl2

[0110] 2% CaCl2: 8 mL 2.5% CaCl2 + 2 mL purified water

[0111] 1.5% CaCl2: 6mL 2.5% CaCl2 + 4mL purified water

[0112] 1% CaCl2: 4mL 2.5% CaCl2 + 6mL purified water

[0113] 0.5% CaCl2: 2 mL 2.5% CaCl2 + 8 mL purified water

[0114] For example, 1 mL of sodium alginate-enzyme mixture was prepared: 500 μL of 3% sodium alginate solution + 400 μL of mutant enzyme solution + 100 μL of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer; for the blank group, the mutant enzyme solution was replaced with 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer.

[0115] Preparation of microspheres: Prepare 5 culture dishes, pour different concentrations of CaCl2 solution into the culture dishes respectively, and slowly drip the above sodium alginate-enzyme mixture into the culture dishes containing different concentrations of CaCl2 with a syringe 1mm away from the liquid surface. After standing for 10 minutes, rinse with 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) for 3 times, store the microspheres in EP tubes, mark them, and put them on ice for standby. The blank group is operated in the same way as above. Repeat the above operation for different concentrations of CaCl2 experimental groups and blank groups, and the preparation is completed. The microspheres are placed on ice for standby.

[0116] (2) Detection: The final concentration of the substrate (ampicillin) is fixed at 150 μg / mL. Prepare an EP tube rack and 1.5 mL EP tubes. Perform three parallel experiments and one blank experiment for each group of experiments, for a total of four groups, i.e., 4 EP tubes as one group of experiments. Number the EP tubes and mark them. Use a 1 mL pipette to draw 700 μL Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer into the EP tube, then draw 300 μL 500 μg / mL ampicillin into the EP tube, preheat it in a 40°C water bath for two minutes, take out the EP tube after preheating, take out the prepared blank group and experimental group microspheres, quickly add 3 microspheres, and immediately put it back into the 40°C water bath for reaction for 3 minutes. Use a spectrophotometer with a wavelength of 235 nm to detect the corresponding OD value of each group and record it. Repeat the above operation for each group of experiments. After obtaining the data, perform calculations.

[0117] according to Figure 2 As shown, when the CaCl2 concentration is 1.0%, the relative activity of the enzyme is the highest; at 1.5% and 2.0%, the relative enzyme activities of the two groups of immobilized VIM-1 are close to each other, about 80%, and at 0.5% and 2.5%, the relative enzyme activities of the immobilized VIM-1 are close to each other, about 60%. That is, the optimal CaCl2 concentration for immobilizing the VIM-1 mutant enzyme is 1.0%.

[0118] 1.3 Optimization of the optimal fixed time

[0119] (1) Preparation of blank group and experimental group microspheres

[0120] The final concentration of sodium alginate was 1.5%, and the concentration of CaCl2 was 1%. Because the immobilization time was different, a timer was prepared to collect the microspheres at 5min, 10min, 30min, 60min, and 90min. The proportion of the sodium alginate-enzyme mixture remained unchanged, such as preparing 1mL of sodium alginate-enzyme mixture, 500μL 3% sodium alginate solution + 400μL enzyme + 100μL 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer; for the blank group, the enzyme was replaced with 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer.

[0121] (2) Detection: The final concentration of the substrate (ampicillin) is fixed at 150 μg / mL. Prepare an EP tube rack and 1.5 mL EP tubes. Perform three parallel experiments and one blank experiment for each group of experiments, for a total of four groups, i.e., 4 EP tubes as one group of experiments. Number the EP tubes and mark them. Use a 1 mL pipette to draw 700 μL Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer into the EP tube, then draw 300 μL 500 μg / mL ampicillin into the EP tube, preheat it in a 40°C water bath for two minutes, take out the EP tube after preheating, take out the prepared blank group and experimental group microspheres, quickly add 3 microspheres, and immediately put it back into the 40°C water bath for reaction for 3 minutes. Use a spectrophotometer with a wavelength of 235 nm to detect the corresponding OD value of each group and record it. Repeat the above operation for each group of experiments. After obtaining the data, perform calculations.

[0122] according to Figure 3 As shown, when the immobilization time is 10 minutes, the relative activity of the enzyme is the highest; when the immobilization time is 5 minutes and 10 minutes, the activity expressed by the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme is relatively high. When the immobilization time exceeds 30 minutes, the relative activity expressed by the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme is significantly reduced, less than 20%. That is, the optimal immobilization time for the immobilization of the VIM-1 mutant enzyme is 10 minutes.

[0123] Example 3 Immobilized Enzyme Properties

[0124] 1.1 Optimum temperature

[0125] (1) Preparation of blank group and experimental group microspheres

[0126] From the first three experiments, the optimal conditions for VIM-1 immobilization are: 1.5% sodium alginate, 1% CaCl2, and a fixation time of 10 min; if 1 mL of sodium alginate-enzyme mixture is prepared, 500 μL of 3% sodium alginate solution + 400 μL of enzyme + 100 μL of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer; for the blank group, the enzyme is replaced with 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer.

[0127] Preparation of microspheres: prepare 5 culture dishes, pour 1% CaCl2 solution into the culture dishes, slowly drip the above 1.5% sodium alginate-enzyme mixture into the culture dishes containing 1% CaCl2 solution 1mm away from the liquid surface with a syringe, let it stand for 10 minutes to fix, then rinse it with 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) for 3 times and store the microspheres in EP tubes, mark them, and put them on ice for later use. Perform the same operation for the blank group.

[0128] (2) Detection:

[0129] The final concentration of the substrate (ampicillin) was fixed at 150 μg / mL. Prepare an EP tube rack and 1.5 mL EP tubes. Perform three parallel experiments and one blank experiment for each group of experiments, for a total of four groups, i.e., 4 EP tubes per group of experiments. Number the EP tubes and mark them well.

[0130] It is necessary to detect the activity of the enzyme at different temperatures after immobilization. It is necessary to conduct the experiment at a temperature gradient of 10°C to 100°C. Use a 1mL pipette to draw 700μL 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) buffer into the EP tube, and then draw 300μL 500μg / mL ampicillin into the EP tube. Put it in the experimental temperature environment for preheating for two minutes. After preheating, take out the prepared blank group and experimental group microspheres, quickly add 3 microspheres, and immediately put it back into the experimental temperature environment after adding the microspheres for reaction timing for 10 minutes. Use a spectrophotometer with a wavelength of 235nm to detect the corresponding OD value of each group and record it. Repeat the above operation for each group of experiments. After obtaining the data, perform calculation processing.

[0131] according to Figure 4 As shown, the relative activity of VIM-1 after immobilization at 10℃-30℃ increased linearly and dramatically. At 30℃, the relative activity of the enzyme was the highest. At 40℃ to 60℃, the relative activity of VIM-1 after immobilization tended to be consistent, with a slight downward trend, but the relative activity was >80%. When the temperature was >60℃, the activity of the enzyme decreased significantly. That is, the optimal reaction temperature for the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme was 30℃.

[0132] 1.2 Optimum pH

[0133] (1) Preparation of blank group and experimental group microspheres

[0134] From the first three experiments, the optimal conditions for VIM-1 immobilization are: 1.5% sodium alginate, 1% CaCl2, and a fixation time of 10 min. If 1 mL of sodium alginate-enzyme mixture is prepared, 500 μL of 3% sodium alginate solution + 400 μL of enzyme + 100 μL of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer; for the blank group, the enzyme is replaced with 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer.

[0135] Preparation of microspheres: prepare 5 culture dishes, pour 1% CaCl2 solution into the culture dishes, slowly drip the above 1.5% sodium alginate-enzyme mixture into the culture dishes containing 1% CaCl2 solution 1mm away from the liquid surface with a syringe, let it stand for 10 minutes, rinse it with 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) for 3 times, then store the microspheres in EP tubes, mark them, and put them on ice for later use. Perform the same operation for the blank group.

[0136] (2) Detection:

[0137] The final concentration of the substrate (ampicillin) is 150 μg / mL. Since it is necessary to detect the activity of the immobilized enzyme under different pH environments, high-concentration ampicillin (5 mg / mL ampicillin) is diluted with each buffer to make the final concentration of the substrate 150 μg / mL, and the dilution ratio is 1 mL: 30 μL ampicillin + 970 μL buffer. Three parallel experiments and one blank experiment are conducted for each group of experiments, a total of four groups. To ensure that factors other than pH have an impact, the substrate and buffer conditions need to be the same for the same group of experiments. Prepare 15 mL centrifuge tubes, dilute according to the ratio, and make good marks after dilution and store them on ice for later use (to prevent antibiotic degradation).

[0138] After preparing different pH environments and EP tubes, use a 1 mL pipette to aspirate 1 mL of the diluted ampicillin-buffer into the EP tube. Take out the prepared blank group and experimental group microspheres, quickly add 3 microspheres with a small long spoon, and immediately put them back into a 30 °C water bath for reaction timing for 10 min. Use a spectrophotometer with a wavelength of 235 nm to detect the corresponding OD value of each group and record it. Repeat the above operations for each group of experiments. After obtaining the data, perform calculation and processing.

[0139] According to Figure 5 As shown, when 2.0 < pH < 12.0, the relative activity of immobilized VIM-1 generally shows a normal distribution. When pH = 7.0, the relative activity of the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme is the highest; when pH ≤ 4.0 and pH ≥ 10.0, the activity of the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme is relatively low; when 5.0 ≤ pH ≤ 9.0, the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme shows relatively high relative activity, and the relative activity is all higher than 50%. That is, the optimal reaction pH for the immobilized VIM-1 mutant enzyme is 7.0.

[0140] Example 4 Removal experiment after immobilization of enzyme VIM-1

[0141] (1) Preparation of experimental group microspheres

[0142] From the above experiments, the optimal conditions for VIM-1 immobilization are as follows: 1.5% sodium alginate, 1% CaCl2, the immobilization time is 10 min, the optimal temperature is 30 °C, and the optimal pH is 7.0. The enzyme content in the prepared sodium alginate-enzyme mixture is fixed at 40%. If preparing 1 mL of sodium alginate-enzyme mixture, 500 μL of 3% sodium alginate solution + 400 μL of enzyme + 100 μL of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.0) buffer.

[0143] (2) Preparation of microspheres: prepare a culture dish, pour 1% CaCl2 solution into the culture dish, and slowly drip the above 1.5% sodium alginate-enzyme mixture into the culture dish containing 1% CaCl2 solution 1 mm from the liquid surface with a syringe. After standing for 10 minutes to immobilize, rinse with 20mM Tris-HCl (pH=7.0) three times and store the microspheres in an EP tube, mark it, and put it on ice for later use. The blank group is operated in the same way as above.

[0144] Detection:

[0145] The final concentration of the substrate (ampicillin) is divided into three gradients: 50μg / mL, 100μg / mL, and 150μg / mL. Taking 50μg / mL ampicillin as an example, a total of 10 time gradients were designed: 0min, 1min, 3min, 5min, 7min, 9min, 11min, 13min, 15min, and 30min.

[0146] Take 50μg / mL as an example, dilute ampicillin to 50μg / mL. Take 4 1mL EP tubes, add 1mL 50μg / mL ampicillin to the first tube, quickly measure the absorbance value in the UV spectrophotometer, and record the data as the value of 0min. Take 4 1mL EP tubes, add 3 blank microspheres and 1mL 50μg / mL ampicillin to the first tube, add 3 enzyme-containing microspheres and 1mL 50μg / mL ampicillin to the other three tubes, quickly put the four EP tubes into a 40℃ water bath to react for 1min, and quickly measure the absorbance value in the UV spectrophotometer and record the data. Use the same method to measure the absorbance values ​​after 3min, 5min, 7min, 9min, 11min, 13min, 15min, and 30min of reaction, and record the data. Similarly, test the removal results of 100μg / mL and 150μg / mL in turn.

[0147] In order to detect the removal of different concentrations of ampicillin substrate after the optimal immobilization conditions and optimal reaction conditions of VIM-1 mutant enzyme were obtained, the residual rate of ampicillin was used as the dependent variable and time as the independent variable. Figure 6 From left to right, 50ug / ml, 100ug / ml, and 150ug / ml ampicillin were used as substrates respectively.

[0148] With 50ug / ml and 100ug / ml ampicillin as substrate, the immobilized VIM-1 mainly completed the reaction in the first 5 minutes, and the relative residual rate of ampicillin showed a significant downward trend. The relative residual rate of ampicillin measured after 5 minutes was close to 0. With 150ug / ml ampicillin as substrate, the immobilized VIM-1 mainly completed the reaction in the first 7 minutes, and the relative residual rate of ampicillin showed a significant downward trend. The relative residual rate of ampicillin measured after 7 minutes was close to 0.

[0149] The present invention discloses a B family lactamase mutant, and uses the immobilized enzyme to remove ampicillin from pig farm wastewater. The B family lactamase mutant is immobilized with sodium alginate, and the immobilization conditions are optimized. It is found that the optimal immobilization conditions for the enzyme are: final concentration 1.5% sodium alginate, 1.0% CaCl 2, Fix for 10 minutes.

[0150] The B family lactamase mutant was immobilized under the optimal immobilization conditions and the enzymatic properties of the enzyme were studied. It was found that the optimal temperature of the immobilized enzyme was 30°C and the optimal pH was 7.0. The B family lactamase mutant was immobilized under the optimal immobilization conditions and the removal experiment of different concentrations of ampicillin was carried out under the optimal conditions. The present invention utilizes the B family lactamase mutant to degrade ampicillin.
