[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in combination with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] Unless otherwise specified, the test materials and reagents used in the following examples can be obtained from commercial sources.

[0024] If no specific techniques or conditions are specified in the examples, they can be carried out according to the techniques or conditions described in the literature in the art or according to the product instructions.

[0025] Streptomyces freundii: CGMCC 4.7387, provided by Xinyu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

[0026] Embodiment 1:

[0027] A method for efficiently synthesizing neomycin sulfate using Streptomyces freundii comprises the following steps:

[0028] (1) Knockout of the kan E gene and btr H gene of Streptomyces freundii:

[0029] The gene mutant strain was constructed by using the strategy of homologous double exchange on the Streptomyces flexneri genome. The upstream and downstream homologous arms of the knockout gene were amplified using the Streptomyces flexneri genome as a template. To ensure the recombination efficiency, the homologous arm length was 1.5-2.0kb. The homologous arms were connected to the restriction sites by cloning methods, and the upstream and downstream homologous arm sequences were sequenced to verify the knockout plasmid. The knockout plasmid was transferred to Escherichia coli competent cells, and then transferred to Streptomyces flexneri by the combination transfer method. The gene mutant strain was screened out by the corresponding antibiotics, and the genome was extracted. The verification primers were designed and verified in the upstream and downstream homologous arms of the knockout gene for PCR verification.

[0030] According to the sequences of kan E gene and btr H gene of Streptomyces freundii, primers were designed and PCR was performed to amplify the long fragment containing the knockout gene and homologous arms on both sides. The Super cos I plasmid was extracted and digested with Eco RI, and then dephosphorylated to prevent the vector from self-ligation, which was convenient for subsequent screening. The purified long fragments of each homologous arm were digested with Eco RI, purified and recovered. A 10 μL connection system of the long fragment and the vector cosmid was established, and the competent Escherichia coli was transformed. After overnight culture, a single colony was picked and inoculated in liquid LB medium, cultured overnight, and the plasmid was extracted to screen and identify the correct Cosmid containing the long fragment. The RED homologous recombination method was used, and the apramycin resistance fragment of p IJ773 was used as the resistance marker of the knockout strain to construct a knockout vector containing the apr resistance gene and homologous arms. According to the sequence of the neomycin biosynthesis gene cluster and p IJ773, long primers were designed, and p IJ773 was used as a template to PCR clone the apr fragment and ori T, which was convenient for the combination transfer method. Transform BW25113 / p IJ790 competent cells with the cosmid containing the long fragment, spread on LB solid plates containing 25μg / mL chloramphenicol and 50μg / mL ampicillin, and culture at 30℃ for 16-20. Pick a single colony and inoculate it into liquid LB medium containing the same antibiotics, culture overnight at 30℃, 220r / min. Transfer it to liquid LB medium containing the same antibiotics and 20mM arabinose at a ratio of 1:100, continue to culture until OD600 is 0.6, and store at -20℃ for use.

[0031] (2) culturing the modified Streptomyces freundii, wherein the components of the culture medium mainly include soy peptone, yeast powder, corn steep liquor and ammonium molybdate (mass ratio 6:3:2:0.1), and then transferring the culture medium to fermentation broth, wherein the components of the fermentation broth include glucose, peptone, ammonium sulfate and water (mass ratio 10:7:0.5:18), and achieving fermentation of Streptomyces freundii by means of sugar supplementation, air dosage control and fermentation broth volume control;

[0032] The fermentation broth is pretreated, filtered with a microfiltration membrane, concentrated with a nanofiltration membrane, crystallized in an acetone solvent, and filtered to obtain a crude neomycin product. The crude product is dissolved in water, salified with sulfuric acid, decolorized with activated carbon, finely filtered, and spray-dried to obtain a finished neomycin sulfate product.

[0033] The enzyme activity of the prepared neomycin sulfate was measured:

[0034] Weigh 0.1544g of the fermentation sample accurately into a 1000mL volumetric flask, dilute to the mark with filtered purified water, and shake well. Accurately measure 1mL into a 25mL brown volumetric flask, add 1mL acetonitrile, add 1mL buffer (0.05mol / L borax solution: 0.2mol / L boric acid solution = 3:7), add 2mL derivatization reagent (8mmol / L 9-chloroformic acid fluorenylmethyl ester), vortex and react for 15min, add 0.2mL glycine (0.1mol / L), vortex for 30s, and terminate the reaction. Take an appropriate amount of this liquid and filter it through a 0.45μm organic membrane, then take 20μL into the HPLC system for determination. The enzyme activity of neomycin sulfate reaches 29000U / mL.
