AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies lack effective endogenous inducible promoters to control the synthesis and secretion of polymyxins in Bacillus polymyxa, resulting in polymyxins being harmful to the strains themselves and making it difficult to increase secretion in the presence of pathogens.
A polymyxin-synthesizing engineered strain, SC2-M1-Ppmx::PxylA-ΔC/D, was constructed. The polymyxin synthesis gene cluster was expressed in Bacillus polymyxinus using the exogenous xylose-inducible promoter PxylA, and the exogenous transporter genes pmxC and pmxD were knocked out. Subsequently, the pathogen-preferred endogenous promoter PlipA1 was added to express pmxD, thereby achieving the induced expression and secretion of polymyxin.
This study achieved the controllable synthesis and enhanced secretion of polymyxins, avoiding damage to the strain itself, enhancing the elimination effect on pathogens, and providing a molecular-directed evolutionary model for polymyxin efflux transport proteins.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to a polymyxin secretion engineering strain and a construction method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present application and do not necessarily constitute the prior art.
[0003] In medical use, polymyxin has been used for more than 50 years. Polymyxin has various types, among which polymyxin B and polymyxin E were widely used in clinical treatment in the 1950s, but were gradually abandoned due to their large side effects. In recent years, the abuse of antibiotics has led to the continuous emergence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria, and the incidence of infection has been increasing, so polymyxin was applied to clinical treatment again in the 1980s and was considered as the last line of defense against multi-drug resistant bacteria. In 1947, Ainsworth et al. first discovered the presence of polymyxin in the product of Paenibacillus polymyxa. The polymyxin produced by P. polymyxa can inhibit the growth of most bacteria, including most gram-negative bacteria and part of gram-positive bacteria, so polymyxin can also be used as a biological control agent to prevent some pathogenic bacteria that cause plant infectious diseases. However, the polymyxin synthesized by P. polymyxa can cause damage to the cells to some extent, so P. polymyxa needs to use the efflux transport system to transport polymyxin outside the cell while synthesizing polymyxin, and this process mainly depends on the functions of efflux transport proteins such as PmxC and PmxD. Polymyxin has various types, and all of them are synthesized by non-ribosomal peptide synthetases, and different polymyxins have different utilization values. The biosynthetic gene cluster for synthesizing polymyxin in P. polymyxa is called pmx gene cluster, which is composed of five genes, pmxA, pmxB, pmxC, pmxD and pmxE, pmxA, pmxB and pmxE encode non-ribosomal peptide synthetase system (NRPS) for synthesizing polymyxin, and pmxC and pmxD mainly encode ABC-type efflux transport proteins.
[0004] There are some cis-acting elements in inducible promoters, which are relatively conservative and can regulate the initiation or shutdown of functional gene transcription under specific environmental factors. Among them, the xylose-inducible promoter (P xylA), which is induced by xylose but inhibited by glucose. Noguchi et al. realized the use of xylose induction system to perform engineering induction protein expression in Streptomyces by constructing a xylose-induced protein expression system; Wang et al. established a T7 RNA polymerase (T7P) cascade expression system regulated by sucrose operon and T7 promoter in P. polymyxa, and realized the controllable expression of genes under the action of sucrose and regulatory elements. In P. polymyxa, inducible promoters have the potential to be used as ideal synthetic biology tools, and their gene expression intensity can be dynamically regulated by inducers, but there is still a lack of research on endogenous inducible promoters. Whether the P. polymyxa engineering bacteria for inducing synthesis and secretion of polymyxin can be constructed is currently unknown. SUMMARY
[0005] To overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art, the present application provides a polymyxin secretion engineering strain and a construction method and application thereof. One of the purposes of the present application is to provide a polymyxin synthesis strain, which can be induced to synthesize polymyxin and can be used for molecular directed evolution research, molecular and phenotypic research, etc. of polymyxin efflux transporter protein; the second purpose of the present application is to provide a polymyxin secretion strain, which realizes the induced expression and secretion of polymyxin by expressing polymyxin efflux transporter protein on the basis of the polymyxin synthesis strain, and constructs a polymyxin secretion model, which can be used for molecular directed evolution research, molecular and phenotypic research, etc. of polymyxin efflux transporter protein, and can also be used for agricultural production to improve the resistance of plants to pathogenic bacteria.

[0176] The application of the polymyxin-secreting engineered bacteria provided in this embodiment in the induction, expression, and secretion of polymyxins.
[0177] To verify the engineered polymyxin-secreting bacteria SC2-M1-P pmx ∷P xylA Whether -ΔC / D-pmxD is induced by xylose to synthesize polymyxin, the fermentation medium used was Aspa fermentation medium, cultured at 37℃, initial OD 600The concentration was 0.1. A control group and an experimental group were set up. The control group did not contain xylose, while the experimental group received 0.5% xylose at 6 hours of culture. Samples were taken at 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, and 36 hours for the Oxford cup antagonism test. The indicator bacterium *E. coli* was added to 1 μL of *E. coli* DH5α overnight culture medium per 1 mL of semi-solid LB medium. After 12 hours of culture, the formation and diameter of inhibition zones were observed. The diameter of the inhibition zone was used to observe the synthesis of polymyxins. The results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown, no obvious inhibition zone was generated without xylose addition; after xylose addition and induction, an obvious inhibition zone was generated, proving that polymyxin synthesis in engineered polymyxin-secreting bacteria is induced by xylose. No polymyxin was produced without xylose addition, but polymyxin was produced after xylose addition and induction.

After 6 hours of culture, 0.5% xylose was added for induction. Samples were taken at 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, and 36 hours for Oxford cup antagonism experiments. The indicator bacteria concentration was 1 μL of *E. coli* DH5α overnight culture medium per 1 mL of semi-solid LB. The diameter of the inhibition zone was observed after 12 hours of culture.
[0180] (2) Comparison of inhibition zones in polymyxin secretion models with and without pathogen interaction: The difference in inhibition zone diameter between the polymyxin secretion model and the control was compared between the presence and absence of pathogens. The antagonistic indicator bacterium used was *Escherichia coli* DH5α, and the amount of indicator bacterium added was 200 μL of overnight *E. coli* DH5α culture medium per 200 mL of LB semi-solid medium. Induction was initiated by adding 0.5% xylose after 6 hours of culture. Results are as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the polymyxin secretion model of interacting pathogens (strain SC2-M1-P) was used to determine whether or not the pathogens were interacting. pmx ∷P xylA The change in the diameter of the inhibition zone (ΔC / D-pmxD) relative to the diameter of the control, where the control strain is strain SC2-M1-P. pmx ∷P xylA -ΔC / D transformation of empty plasmid (pHY300PLK-cm) r -P lipA1 The difference was found to be even greater in the presence of pathogen-bacterial interactions, proving that the presence of pathogens stimulates an increase in the promoter P. lipA1The expression level of the pmxD gene increases the amount of polymyxin efflux and secretion.
