Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of molecular biology and bioengineering technology, and specifically relates to a programmable prokaryotic microorganism automatic lysis control system and application. BACKGROUND
[0002] In current industrial production, the process of synthesizing natural products by microbial fermentation is becoming more and more common and mature. Compared with animals and plants, microorganisms grow and metabolize quickly, are easy to genetically manipulate, and have simple nutrient requirements. Using microorganisms as cell factories, natural products can be rapidly synthesized using relatively cheap and readily available raw materials, which can greatly shorten the synthesis cycle, save land and natural resources, and reduce the use of acid, alkali and organic solvents. On the basis of protecting the environment, the economic benefits can be greatly improved. However, in the current production process, there is no simple and spontaneous control scheme for the crushing and extraction of microorganisms after product synthesis. At the same time, before the crude enzyme solution extracted by microorganisms is used for biological chemical synthesis, additional steps are also needed to break the microorganisms after cultivation. This not only makes the process more complex, but also brings additional production costs. In addition, in recent years, more and more researches on using bacterial therapy to target treat diseases such as cancer (Harimoto, T., Hahn, J., et al. 2022, Nature Biotechnology, 40, 8, 1259-1269.) have been carried out. How to control the automatic lysis of bacteria after targeting to the disease site in the body is also an important research problem.
[0003] The gene expression process of normal living organisms is often regulated by intracellular multi-component systems, which is a relatively complex link. A large number of gene regulation tools have been used to control the expression of target genes, the most common way including the use of some induction systems that interact with transcription factors, such as IPTG, arabinose and tetracycline, etc. However, using such induction systems to control gene expression also requires human intervention with inducers, which can adversely affect the normal growth and metabolism of microbial cells, and also greatly increase production costs.

[0098] The sequence of J23119 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 14, the sequence of J23110 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 15, the sequence of J23101 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 16, the sequence of J23109 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 17, and the sequence of J23105 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 18.
[0099] The results of the target point editing efficiency obtained by sequencing the samples are as follows Figure 4BAs shown, it was found that the ratio of the expression intensity of PsgRNA to SsgRNA promoter could largely affect the editing efficiency of BioAutolysis system elements, wherein the higher the value of PsgRNA promoter intensity / SsgRNA promoter intensity, the higher the editing efficiency of each target point in the system, which means the shorter the time for downstream gene activation expression. When the PsgRNA promoter is J23119 and the SsgRNA promoter is J23110, the entire system can achieve the highest propulsion rate; when the PsgRNA promoter and the SsgRNA promoter are both J23119, the editing efficiency of the entire system is the lowest, which means that the action time of the entire system can be prolonged. This provides us with a new strategy (adjusting the expression intensity ratio of PsgRNA and SsgRNA promoters) to effectively control the target editing efficiency and working time of the entire system, enhancing the robustness and programmability of the system.
[0100] V. Timed cell lysis
[0101] Experimental group: 200 nanograms of pCDF-BioAutolysis plasmid and 250 nanograms of pACYC-J23105-ABE8e (dCas9) plasmid were added to the Transgen company's E. coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells, ice bath for 30 minutes, 42°C heat shock in water bath for 90 seconds, ice bath for 5 minutes, add 400 microliters of LB liquid medium, cultivate in 37°C shaking table 220 rpm for two hours, then take 200 microliters of bacteria liquid to inoculate in LB liquid medium (500 mL) containing chloramphenicol and streptomycin double-antibiotic (chloramphenicol 34 μg / ml, streptomycin 40 μg / ml), 37°C, 220 rpm continuous fermentation culture.
[0102] Control group: 200 nanograms of pCDF-BioAutolysis plasmid and 250 nanograms of p5 plasmid were added to the Transgen company's E. coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells, ice bath for 30 minutes, 42°C heat shock in water bath for 90 seconds, ice bath for 5 minutes, add 400 microliters of LB liquid medium, cultivate in 37°C shaking table 220 rpm for two hours, then take 200 microliters of bacteria liquid to inoculate in LB liquid medium (500 mL) containing chloramphenicol and streptomycin double-antibiotic (chloramphenicol 34 μg / ml, streptomycin 40 μg / ml), 37°C, 220 rpm continuous fermentation culture.
[0103] In the pCDF-BioAutolysis plasmid construction, the promoters of the sgRNA and the sgRNA trigger are both J23119. In the experimental group, the Fuze-lysis fragment is respectively Fuze2-lysis containing two transmission targets and Fuze3-lysis containing three transmission targets, which are respectively marked as Fuze2 group and Fuze3 group. In the control group, the Fuze-lysis fragment is Fuze2-lysis containing two transmission targets. In addition, the control group does not use the BioAutolysis system, and the p5 plasmid used does not contain sgRNA, so the promoter cannot be modified to activate the expression of the ΦX174E lysis gene. Therefore, the control group does not contain the expression trigger device for controlling the ΦX174E lysis gene.
[0104] During the fermentation culture of each bacterium described above, a portion of the sample was taken every 12 hours. After centrifugation of the sampled portion at 12000 rpm, the supernatant was taken, and the mCherry fluorescence value of 200 microliters of the supernatant and 200 microliters of the uncentrifuged sampled bacterial liquid was detected using an enzyme marker (absorption light 587 nm, excitation light 610 nm). At the same time, the editing of the related target was detected using the sequencing service of GenScript Biotech Corporation. A portion of the sample was taken every 24 hours, and after being fixed at 4°C using 2.5% glutaraldehyde for 12 hours and freeze-drying, the bacterial outer wall morphology was detected using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The sample was taken every 4 hours, and the growth curve of the bacteria was detected using a spectrophotometer.
[0105] The mCherry fluorescence release rate was used as the lysis rate, and the detection results obtained by the Fuze2 group (marked as Fuze2-lysis) of the experimental group, the Fuze3 group (marked as Fuze3-lysis) of the experimental group, and the control group (marked as CK) were compared, as shown in Figure 5 As can be seen, in the two experimental groups using the BioAutolysis system, the lysis of E. coli has been optimized. Among them, the Fuze2 group using Fuze2-lysis containing two transmission targets can start lysis after 24 hours and reach a lysis rate higher than 90% after 72 hours. The Fuze3 group using Fuze3-lysis containing three transmission targets is slightly delayed and reaches a lysis rate of about 50% after 72 hours. The strain in the control group without using the BioAutolysis system is difficult to lyse, and the mCherry fluorescence release rate is less than 10%.
[0106] Further, the target editing sequencing results of the sampling samples at different times (12h, 24h, 36h, 48h, 60h, 72h) in the Fuze2 group of the experimental group are as follows: Figure 6As shown in Table 1, it can be seen that the editing efficiency of each conduct target (Push-site) and activation target (Switch-site) of the Fuze2 group sample (Fuze2-lysis) gradually increases over time, and the editing efficiency of the activation target reaches 31.9% at 24 h, effectively starting the expression of the downstream ΦX174E gene and prompting the cell to start lysis. Correspondingly, the scanning electron micrographs of the sampling samples at different times (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) in the Fuze2 group of the experimental group are shown in FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C, respectively. Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown in Table 1, it can be seen that the editing efficiency of each conduct target (Push-site) and activation target (Switch-site) of the Fuze2 group sample (Fuze2-lysis) gradually increases over time, and the editing efficiency of the activation target reaches 31.9% at 24 h, effectively starting the expression of the downstream ΦX174E gene and prompting the cell to start lysis. Correspondingly, the scanning electron micrographs of the sampling samples at different times (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) in the Fuze2 group of the experimental group are shown in FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C, respectively.
[0107] Similarly, the target editing sequencing results of the sampling samples at different times (12 h, 24 h, 36 h, 48 h, 60 h, and 72 h) in the Fuze3 group of the experimental group are shown in Table 2. Figure 7 As shown in Table 2, it can be seen that the editing efficiency of each conduct target and activation target of the Fuze3 group sample (Fuze3-lysis) also gradually increases over time, but the overall editing efficiency is more lagging than that of the Fuze2-lysis. The editing efficiency of the activation target is only 5% at 24 h, which does not effectively start the expression of the downstream gene, and the editing efficiency reaches 23.5% at 72 h, effectively starting the expression of the downstream ΦX174E gene and prompting the cell to start lysis. Correspondingly, the scanning electron micrographs of the sampling samples at different times (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) in the Fuze3 group of the experimental group are shown in FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 3C, respectively. Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown in Table 2, it can be seen that the editing efficiency of each conduct target and activation target of the Fuze3 group sample (Fuze3-lysis) also gradually increases over time, but the overall editing efficiency is more lagging than that of the Fuze2-lysis. The editing efficiency of the activation target is only 5% at 24 h, which does not effectively start the expression of the downstream gene, and the editing efficiency reaches 23.5% at 72 h, effectively starting the expression of the downstream ΦX174E gene and prompting the cell to start lysis. Correspondingly, the scanning electron micrographs of the sampling samples at different times (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) in the Fuze3 group of the experimental group are shown in FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 3C, respectively.
[0108] In Table 2, the scanning electron micrographs of the sampling samples at different times (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) in the control group (CK) are also shown in FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 4C, respectively. It can be seen that at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h, the cell morphology of the sample remains intact, indicating that the bacteria do not effectively lyse without activation of the lysis gene. Figure 8 and Figure 9 In Table 2, the scanning electron micrographs of the sampling samples at different times (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) in the control group (CK) are also shown in FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 4C, respectively. It can be seen that at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h, the cell morphology of the sample remains intact, indicating that the bacteria do not effectively lyse without activation of the lysis gene.
[0109] It can be found that the target point editing sequencing results and the scanning electron microscopy results are consistent with the above-mentioned lysis rate results, which means that the BioAutolysis system can control the lysis of bacteria, and the time required for bacterial lysis can be effectively controlled by pre-setting the number of conduction targets.
[0110] In addition, the growth curves of the bacteria in the Fuze2 group and the Fuze3 group of the experimental group and the control group are as shown in Figure 10 The results show that in the early stage of fermentation, the BioAutolysis system does not significantly inhibit the normal growth of the bacteria, and can ensure that the bacteria can grow normally in the early stage until the predetermined function is completed and the lysis is started. This reveals the great application potential of the system in the fields of industrial fermentation, environmental governance, drug release, etc.
[0111] VI. Promoter strength characterization
[0112] 200 nanograms of pCDF-Tac-lysis-OFF plasmid (or pCDF-Tac-lysis-ON plasmid) and 250 nanograms of pACYC-J23105-ABE8e (dCas9) plasmid were added to the E. coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells of Transgen Company, ice bath for 30 minutes, 42°C heat shock in water bath for 90 seconds, ice bath for 5 minutes, add 400 microliters of LB liquid medium, cultivate in 37°C shaker 220 rpm for two hours, then take 200 microliters of bacterial liquid and spread on LB medium plate containing chloramphenicol and streptomycin double-antibiotic (chloramphenicol 34 μg / ml, streptomycin 40 μg / ml), 37°C inverted culture for 12 hours, then pick single colony and inoculate in 10 mL LB liquid medium, 37°C, 220 rpm continuous fermentation culture. When the OD 600 of the bacterial liquid reaches about 1.0, take 1 mL of bacterial liquid and use fluorescent real-time quantitative PCR to detect the expression level difference of the mCherry gene. After 24 hours of shaking culture, take 200 microliters of bacterial liquid and use the enzyme marker (absorption light 587 nm, excitation light 610 nm) to detect the mCherry fluorescence value. The results show that the average fluorescence value of Tac-lysis-OFF detected by the enzyme marker is 18.98, which is almost the same as the mCherry fluorescence value of E. coli not carrying the mCherry fluorescence gene, while the average fluorescence value of Tac-lysis-ON is 441.83, which significantly increases the expression amount (as shown in Figure 11AThe mCherry gene transcription level of Tac-lysis-ON is about 101.5 times of that of Tac-lysis-OFF before turning on, which proves that Tac-lysis before turning on (OFF) has very low leakage in protein expression and transcription level of mCherry, while after turning on (ON) it can effectively start the expression of subsequent genes or gene clusters (such as Figure 11B
[0113] It can be seen that the above embodiment provides a BioAutolysis system for controlling the timed lysis of bacteria. The system has the following characteristics:
[0114] (1) The excitation target and the Tac-lysis promoter are connected by a variable number of conductive targets to form a gene timed expression regulatory element;
[0115] (2) A protein E gene (ΦX174E) of bacteriophage X174 is connected downstream of the element, and the protein expressed by the gene can degrade the cell wall from the inside to promote bacterial lysis;
[0116] (3) The constitutive expression of human lysozyme (lysozyme, LYZ) is controlled by the J23109 promoter, and the lysozyme can degrade the peptidoglycan of the outer wall of the bacteria to promote bacterial lysis;
[0117] (4) The constitutive expression of PsgRNA and SsgRNA is controlled by the J23119 promoter, and the constitutive expression of ABE8e protein is controlled by the J23105 promoter to realize the timed modification of the regulatory element described in (1);
[0118] (5) The constitutive expression of mCherry protein is controlled by J23105 to serve as a target protein for bacterial lysis release and detection.
[0119] In the above embodiment, the overall sequence of the gene timed expression regulatory element adopted is as follows: 5'-CGTTATGCGAGCCGATGATGCTT-TATCAA-CTGACG-[AGCTAACTGCTGTC ACT]x n-AGC-TGG-3';
[0120] The overall sequence of the gene timing expression regulatory element taken can also be written as: 5'-Tac-lysis promoter-priming target-conduction target basic component x n-AGC-TGG-3', wherein n is the number of conduction target basic components, n = 1, 2, 3…; the nucleotide sequence of Tac-lysis promoter is shown in SEQ ID NO. 1; the nucleotide sequence of priming target is shown in SEQ ID NO. 2; the nucleotide sequence of conduction target basic component is shown in SEQ ID NO. 3.
[0121] It can also be written as: 5'-Tac-lysis promoter-priming target-conduction target basic component x (n-1)-conduction target basic component-AGC-TGG-3', wherein {conduction target basic component-AGC-TGG} at the 3' end is regarded as the initial conduction target, and the sequence of the initial conduction target is shown in SEQ ID NO. 4.
[0122] Wherein, the initial conduction target and the conduction target share sgRNA, which is called conduction sgRNA (PsgRNA), and the nucleotide sequence of the conduction sgRNA is shown in SEQ ID NO. 5; the sgRNA used by the priming target is called priming sgRNA (SsgRNA), and the nucleotide sequence of the priming sgRNA is shown in SEQ ID NO. 6.
[0123] As shown in Figure 12 In the above gene timing expression regulatory element, only the initial conduction target can be recognized and edited by ABE8e in the initial state, then after the initial conduction target is modified by ABE8e, the modification makes the PAM of the conduction target activated due to the overlap of the 5' end of the initial conduction target and the 3' end of the conduction target, the conduction target is converted into the initial conduction target and is modified, and the next conduction target is activated, and so on, each target from 3' end to 5' end of the whole sequence will be activated in sequence, finally the adenine A in the -35 box editing frame of Tac-lysis promoter is modified to guanine G, so that the Tac-lysis promoter is activated, thereby achieving the purpose of regulating the expression of downstream genes.
[0124] As shown in Figure 13 The process of using BioAutolysis system to control the timing automatic lysis of bacteria is as follows:
[0125] Stage 1: ABE8e combined with PsgRNA forms ribonucleoprotein (RNP), which first edits the conduction target and sequentially opens downstream targets;
[0126] Stage 2: After a predetermined time, ABE8e targeting SsgRNA is targeted to the open activation target, modifying the Tac-lysis promoter and turning it on, starting the expression of ΦX174E and degrading the cell wall of the bacteria;
[0127] Stage 3: The degraded bacterial cells release intracellularly expressed human lysozyme to lyse surrounding bacteria, and further release more LYZ to act on more bacterial cells, forming a chain reaction to promote the lysis of the entire bacterial population;
[0128] Stage 4: After the chain reaction is completed, the bacteria in the entire solution will become cell debris, and the target protein mCherry carried in the cell will be released into the solution.
[0129] It can be seen that the present application provides a brand new gene timing expression regulatory element, which has an extremely low penetration promoter Tac-lysis, almost no leakage of downstream gene expression in the bacterial body, and restores activity after ABE8e modification to the activation target; has a variable number of transmission target basic components and can adjust the relative expression intensity of the transmission sgRNA promoter and the various combinations of the sgRNA promoter. Therefore, the BioFuze based Microbial Autolysis System (BioAutolysis for short) based on the gene timing expression regulatory element can control the time of microbial cell lysis by changing the number of transmission target basic components (or the sequence length of the element), and can also adjust the ratio of the expression intensity of the transmission sgRNA and the sgRNA promoter to regulate the target editing efficiency and the activation expression time of the downstream gene. The system has good robustness and programmability, and can dynamically regulate gene expression according to the growth and fermentation process of the bacterial body, and finally realize automatic timing lysis of the bacterial body after completing the set function. In addition, the exogenous target gene (cluster) and other elements can be pre-programmed according to the actual situation to achieve better application effect.
[0130] Therefore, the above-mentioned gene timing expression regulatory element / prokaryotic microbial timing lysis system can provide a safer and simpler solution for microbial industrial fermentation product extraction, microbial environmental pollution treatment, medical bacterial targeted drug delivery and other application links.
[0131] For example, the gene timed expression regulatory element / prokaryotic microorganism timed lysis system is applied to industrial production fermentation, without any manual intervention or external inducer, the cells can be automatically lysed at a predetermined time after fermentation, and the contents, including but not limited to terpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, vitamins, proteins, etc., are released, thereby simplifying the process flow, reducing production cost, and having good economic benefits.
[0132] For another example, the gene timed expression regulatory element / prokaryotic microorganism timed lysis system is applied to environmental pollutant treatment, and the engineering bacteria can be lysed at a predetermined time after degrading the pollutants, thereby avoiding interference with the ecological environment and improving the safety of the environmental pollutant treatment process of the engineering bacteria.
[0133] For another example, the gene timed expression regulatory element / prokaryotic microorganism timed lysis system is applied to medical bacterial targeted drug delivery, and the bacteria can be automatically lysed at a predetermined time after targeting the disease site, and the intracellular effective drug components, including but not limited to paclitaxel, sea squirt, doxorubicin, bisabolene, mitomycin, vinblastine or tyrosine kinase inhibitors, etc., are released. In this way, the drug utilization efficiency is improved to a certain extent, the potential risk of bacterial infection is reduced, and any external inducer is not needed, and compared with other synthetic organic carriers and inorganic particle carriers, the safety and targeting are more superior.
[0134] In addition, the above-mentioned is only one embodiment of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application. Any adjustment, improvement, equivalent replacement, etc. within the design spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
