Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of agricultural biotechnology, and specifically relates to a zearalenone hydrolase ZHRnZ and a coding gene and application thereof, in particular to the application in the detoxification of zearalenone and its derivatives and macrolide antibiotics. Background Art

[0002] Zearalenone (ZEN) is a toxic secondary metabolite mainly produced by Fusarium fungi. The molecular formula of zearalenone is C18H22O5. It is a lactone structure substance of phenolic dihydroxybenzoic acid, similar to estradiol. Therefore, zearalenone and its derivatives can competitively bind to estrogen receptors in animals and exert estrogen-like effects. During metabolism in animals, zearalenone will be converted into derivatives such as α-zearalenol, β-zearalenol, α-zearalenol, and β-zearalenol, and their estrogenic activities are 30 times, 0.44 times, 18 times, and 3.5 times that of zearalenone, respectively.

[0003] Corn, wheat and other crops often suffer from Fusarium diseases, and the toxins such as zearalenone produced by the fungus are widely present in moldy crops, endangering food and feed safety. Long-term intake of zearalenone-contaminated feed by female animals can lead to estrogen syndrome, estrous cycle disorders, decreased reproductive capacity, and increased abortion rates; long-term intake of zearalenone-contaminated feed by male animals can lead to decreased sperm activity and semen quality. The use of biodegradation to convert zearalenone and its derivatives into non-toxic or low-toxic products has the advantages of high efficiency, environmental protection, and little impact on feed resale. At present, research mainly focuses on the hydrolysis of lactone ring opening pathways. In 2002, Takahashi-Ando et al. first isolated a lactone hydrolase ZHD101 that can degrade ZEN from Clonostachys rosea IFO 7063, and subsequently a variety of lactone hydrolases that can degrade zearalenone were gradually reported.

[0004] However, existing zearalenone hydrolases still have many shortcomings: the optimal pH for zearalenone degradation is 8-9.5, and the catalytic activity cannot be fully exerted in the digestive tract environment; the temperature tolerance is poor, and it cannot withstand the high-temperature pelleting of feed; in particular, there are few reports on this type of enzyme in the degradation of macrolide antibiotics. Therefore, it is urgent to expand and supplement the resources of zearalenone hydrolases and explore zearalenone hydrolases with good thermal stability and high efficiency under neutral or acidic conditions.

[0068] The protein concentration of the zearalenone hydrolase ZHRnZ prepared in Example 1 was determined to be 9.4 mg / mL. It was diluted ten times with 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer and the diluted enzyme solution was used for subsequent experiments.

[0069] Zearalenone was dissolved in methanol to prepare a 500 μg / mL mother solution, and the experiment was carried out according to the following 200 μL reaction system: 190.7 μL Tris-HCl buffer (25 mM, pH 7.5), 5.3 μL zearalenone hydrolase ZHRnZ (final concentration of 25 μg / mL), 4 μL zearalenone solution (500 μg / mL, final concentration of 10 μg / mL). The system without ZHRnZ protein was used as a control. The reaction was carried out at 37°C for 15 min, and 200 μL methanol (HPLC grade) was added to terminate the reaction. The zearalenone content in the sample was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the activity of zearalenone hydrolase ZHRnZ in degrading ZEN was analyzed according to the change of ZEN content.

The reaction was carried out at 37℃ for 15min, and 200μL methanol (HPLC grade) was added to terminate the reaction. The ZEN content in the sample was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the degradation rate was calculated. The degradation rate of 0min treatment was defined as 100%, and the relative activity under different conditions was calculated.
