Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bioengineering, and in particular to a recombinant Bacillus subtilis, a construction method thereof, and an application thereof in producing tyrosol and salidroside. Background Art

[0002] Tyrosol is a phenylethanol derivative and one of the main active ingredients of olive oil. In addition, tyrosol is also the direct precursor of salidroside. Tyrosol has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory biological activities. It can be used as a precursor of the natural product oleocanthal and the raw material of cardiovascular drugs metoprolol and betaxolol, and has potential value in the research and development of antifungal drugs.

[0003] Salidroside is the product of glucosylation of the C8 hydroxyl group of tyrosol and is one of the main active ingredients of Rhodiola plants. It has pharmacological effects such as anti-fatigue, anti-hypoxia, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and protection of cardiovascular system and central nervous system activity. Salidroside has been used in food and health products, whitening and sunscreen and other skin care products and pharmaceutical industries. It has a very broad application prospect and has attracted much attention in recent years. However, the supply of salidroside from natural plants can hardly meet the growing commercial demand.

[0004] The chemical synthesis method has high raw material costs and is not environmentally friendly, which makes the microbial synthesis method a hot topic in the research of green production of tyrosol and salidroside. However, the endotoxins produced by the Escherichia coli expression strain can be toxic to the human body, and the fermentation cycle of the yeast expression strain is long. Bacillus subtilis is widely used in the food and medicine fields as a beneficial bacteria, and has the functions and effects of improving consumption function, enhancing immunity, and promoting intestinal microbial balance. However, the biosynthetic technology of producing tyrosol and salidroside using Bacillus subtilis has not been retrieved yet. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to propose a recombinant Bacillus subtilis and a construction method thereof and an application in producing tyrosol and salidroside, thereby providing a new method for the production of tyrosol and salidroside.

[0006] Based on the above purpose, the present invention provides a method for constructing a recombinant Bacillus subtilis, comprising the following steps:

[0007] S1, extracting the whole genome of parsley and / or rose leaves, and extracting the whole genome of Bacillus subtilis;

[0008] S2, designing a first primer set with parsley tyrosine decarboxylase and Bacillus subtilis YjiA as target genes, and / or designing a second primer set with rose phenylacetaldehyde synthase and Bacillus subtilis YjiA as target genes, and using the whole genomes of parsley and rose leaves and the whole genome of Bacillus subtilis as templates to amplify the target gene fragments by PCR respectively;

[0009] S3, connecting the target gene fragment with an expression vector to construct a recombinant vector for expressing tyrosine decarboxylase and YjiA and / or phenylacetaldehyde synthase and YjiA activity;

[0010] S4. The recombinant vector is used to transform Bacillus subtilis, and the transformants are selected using the resistance gene to obtain a recombinant Bacillus subtilis strain.

[0011] In the process of forming the recombinant vector, restriction endonuclease cleavage sites and protective base sequences are added on both sides of the fusion fragment.

[0012] The base sequence of the rose phenylacetaldehyde synthase gene is shown in SEQ ID No: 1.

[0013] The parsley tyrosine decarboxylase gene has a base sequence as shown in SEQ ID No: 2.

[0014] The YjiA gene has a base sequence shown in SEQ ID No:3.

[0015] Optionally, the first primer set includes the nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID Nos: 4-7; and the second primer set includes the nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID Nos: 8-11.

[0016] Preferably, the expression vector is PHY-P43.

[0017] Optionally, the transformation method described in S4 is electroporation transformation or Sipizizen transformation method.

[0018] The present invention also provides a recombinant Bacillus subtilis, which is obtained by adopting the construction method of the recombinant Bacillus subtilis.

[0019] The present invention also provides the use of the recombinant Bacillus subtilis in the fermentation production of tyrosol and salidroside.

[0020] The method for producing tyrosol and salidroside by fermentation is to first culture the recombinant Bacillus subtilis on a slant, then culture the seeds, and finally culture the seeds to obtain tyrosol and salidroside. The specific method is: transfer the screened transformants to a slant culture medium for detection; pick colonies from the slant culture medium and culture them on a seed culture medium; inoculate Bacillus subtilis and the modified bacteria into the fermentation culture medium respectively, detect the growth of each strain, culture in the culture medium for 72 hours, centrifuge the fermentation broth, and determine the content of tyrosol and salidroside in the fermentation broth.

[0021] The temperature of the slant culture was 37°C.

[0022] In the fermentation culture, the seed liquid after seed culture is inoculated into the fermentation medium at an inoculation rate of 2-3%.

[0023] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0024] The invention introduces a highly efficient way to produce tyrosol into the original or modified Bacillus subtilis, introduces the tyrosine decarboxylase gene from parsley, the phenylacetaldehyde synthase gene from rose and the YjiA gene from Bacillus subtilis, and successfully constructs a Bacillus subtilis engineering bacterium for heterologous synthesis of tyrosol and salidroside; compared with Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis has the advantages of good safety and strong anti-bacterial ability; compared with yeast, it has the advantages of short growth cycle, etc.

[0025] The invention provides a new idea for the industrial fermentation production of tyrosol and salidroside, lays a foundation for the environmentally friendly production of tyrosol and salidroside, and has great practical application value and broad application prospects in the fields of food, cosmetics and biopharmaceuticals.
