Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of biotechnology, and particularly to a glucose dehydrogenase mutant pTrc99A-6, a preparation method, application and blood glucose test paper thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) is an oxidoreductase that can catalyze the dehydrogenation and oxidation of glucose to generate gluconolactone. In the reaction process, glucose loses electrons and transfers to the coenzyme or prosthetic group of GDH to generate reduced prosthetic group or coenzyme, and the content of the generated reduced prosthetic group or coenzyme is positively correlated with the concentration of glucose. Accordingly, the glucose detection can be used, and the detection is not interfered by general concentration of anticoagulants, preservatives, uric acid, bilirubin and the like. Compared with the traditional GOD method and HK method, the GDH method is more simple to operate, only one enzyme is needed to participate in the reaction, and both continuous monitoring (λ = 340 nm) and end-point analysis can be realized, so it is often used for blood glucose determination.

[0003] GDH can be divided into PQQ-dependent GDH (PQQ-GDH), NAD-dependent GDH (NAD-GDH) and FAD-dependent GDH (FAD-GDH) according to different bound prosthetic groups or coenzymes. The substrate specificity of soluble sPQQ-GDH is poor, and the substrate spectrum is too wide; the mPQQ-GDH of membrane-bound type is a membrane protein, and the expression and separation and purification are difficult, which seriously limits its application in blood glucose determination. NAD-GDH needs to continuously add coenzyme to maintain its activity due to the loose coenzyme binding, which is also not conducive to blood glucose detection. FAD-GDH has tight coenzyme binding and is not easy to fall off, and the reaction process does not need the participation of oxygen, so it is superior to glucose oxidase and other coenzyme-dependent GDH in terms of detection accuracy and long-term preservation. The core enzyme used in the mainstream blood glucose meter on the market is FAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenase, which can be used from opening to the end of the effective period.

[0004] Wild-type FAD-GDH from different sources mostly has multiple substrate activities, and still has certain dehydrogenation and oxidation activity on maltose and xylose, and the specificity is poor. If such components exist in blood, false blood glucose will occur when detecting blood glucose.

[0005] Therefore, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0063] VDASVLPFQVCGHLVSTLYAVAERAADLIKADAGRR (SEQ ID NO. 3).

[0064] In this study, first, the GOD crystal structure 1CF3 downloaded in the PDB database was compared with wild-type FAD-GDH using the software PyMOL, the active center residues of FAD-GDH were found according to the conserved residues of the active center of GOD, and the differences in the structures around the active sites of the two structures were compared. According to the structure comparison of FAD-GDH and GOD, the Autodock software was used for molecular docking to obtain the substrate binding pocket model of FAD-GDH and D-glucose, and the interaction between the enzyme and the substrate was analyzed. According to the model and the results of the previous structure comparison, the mutation sites were determined.

[0065] The selected mutation points are shown in Table 1, and the corresponding mutation primers are designed according to each mutation site.

[0067]

[0068] The above 6 primers were synthesized by a primer synthesis company, and the mutations of the above sites were completed according to the instructions of the commercial mutation kit.

[0069] After the above mutations were completed, the obtained plasmids were transformed into E. coli DH5α competent cells, spread on LB (containing Amp resistance) plates, and cultured at 37°C overnight. After white colonies grew on the LB plate, the above colonies were picked into a 96-deep well plate for expansion culture, and cultured at 37°C for 4-6 hours.

[0070] The above bacteria solution was inoculated into a new 96-deep well plate at a density of 5%, and an appropriate amount of autoinduction medium (20 g / L tryptone, 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM KCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 10 mM MgSO4, 0.5 g / L glucose, 2 g / L lactose, 1x trace element, 10 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0) was added. After incubation at 37°C for 4 hours and then at 20°C for 24 hours, the 96-deep well plate was placed at 4°C for 3 hours, and then the supernatant was carefully discarded. Then the 96-deep well plate was sealed and placed in a 50°C oven for 0.5 hours. 20ul of bacteria solution at the bottom of the deep well plate was transferred to a new 96-well enzyme-labeled plate, 280ul of reaction solution (100 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, containing 100 mM D-glucose, 0.6 mM PMS (phenazine methosulfate), 0.12 mM DCIP (2,6-dichloroindophenol sodium), 0.1% Triton X-100) was added, and the enzyme-labeled plate was incubated at 37°C for 5 minutes. Then the OD600 value was measured every 1 minute, with a 10s interval between each measurement, for a total of 5-10 measurements. Finally, the mutant colonies were screened according to the color change of the enzyme-labeled plate and the difference in OD600 value, and the color change result of the enzyme-labeled plate is shown in Figure 1

[0071] According to the color change result of the enzyme-labeled plate and the difference in OD600 value, the single clone strain was selected for sequencing by a sequencing company. The obtained sequencing result is shown in Table 2.

[0074] The 1 / 2 / 3 site mutation of the above site was predicted by using the software BioPro, and the combination with higher score was selected for synthesis by a company. After obtaining the plasmid, the plasmid was transformed into competent cells of Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), and then coated on LB (containing Amp resistance) plate and incubated at 37°C overnight. After white colonies grew on the LB plate, 5 single colonies were selected from each plate for expansion culture, and incubated at 37°C for 4-6 hours.

[0075] ​The above bacterial solution was inoculated into a 96-deep well plate at a density of 5%, and an appropriate amount of autoinduction medium was added. After incubation at 37°C for 4 hours and at 20°C for 24-36 hours, the 96-deep well plate was placed at 4°C for 3 hours, and then the supernatant was carefully discarded. The cells in the 96-deep well plate were then divided into two parts, one of which was sealed and placed in a 50°C oven for 0.5 hours as a high-temperature treatment group, and the other was ultrasonically inactivated as a non-high-temperature treatment group. 20ul of bacterial solution at the bottom of the deep well plate was transferred to a new 96-well enzyme-labeled plate, 280ul of enzyme reaction solution (100mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH7.0, containing 100mM D-glucose, 0.6mM PMS, 0.12mM DCIP, 0.1% TritonX-100) was added, and the enzyme-labeled plate was incubated at 37°C for 5 minutes. Then the OD600 value was measured every 1 minute, with a 10s interval between each measurement, for a total of 5-10 measurements. Finally, the residual enzyme activity of each mutant combination after 30 minutes of 50°C treatment was calculated relative to its non-high-temperature treatment group, with the enzyme activity of the non-50°C oven treatment group for 0.5 hours as 100%, and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0077]

[0078]

[0079] According to the thermal stability results described above, several plasmids (including the blank plasmid pTrc99A) were selected for substrate specificity testing. Specifically, the selected mutant combinations were inoculated into 50ml centrifuge tubes at a density of 5%, and 15ml of autoinduction medium was added. After incubation at 37°C until OD600>0.6, the centrifuge tubes were transferred to a 20°C incubator for further incubation for 24-36 hours. After incubation, the bacterial cells were collected by centrifugation at 7000rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature, and the bacterial cells were resuspended with an equal volume of 100mM potassium phosphate buffer (containing 0.1% TritonX-100, pH7.0). After ultrasonic treatment of the bacterial cells, the supernatant was obtained by centrifugation at 14000rpm for 30 minutes.

[0080] Take 20ul supernatant added in pre-added 30ul sugar solution (1M glucose, 1M maltose, 1M galactose, 1M xylose, 1M fructose, 1M lactose, 1M sucrose) or water in 96-well enzyme plate, add 250ul enzyme reaction solution (100mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH7.0, containing 0.6mM PMS, 0.12mM DCIP, 0.1% TritonX-100), incubate in 37℃ enzyme reader for 5 minutes, then measure OD600 value every 1 minute, each measurement interval shake 10s, a total of 5-10 times, finally according to the difference of OD600 value to calculate the reaction activity of each mutant combination for different sugar, each mutant or enzyme is 100% of its glucose activity, the results are shown in table 4 and table 5.
