Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of synthetic biology and relates to a synthetic promoter and application thereof, and in particular to a yeast high temperature responsive synthetic promoter and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] As the first model eukaryote to have its entire genome sequenced, Saccharomyces cerevisiae boasts advantages such as a clear genetic background, strong genetic manipulation, rapid growth and reproduction, and excellent fermentation performance. Since its inception in production, it has been one of the most important foundational cells in metabolic engineering. As a cell factory for the production of a variety of raw materials, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is commonly used in the production of pharmaceuticals such as human insulin, hepatitis vaccines, and human papillomavirus vaccines; bulk chemicals such as ethanol, lactic acid, and succinic acid; biofuels such as fatty acids and hydrocarbons; and fine chemicals such as terpenes and polyketides.
[0003] The promoter sequence determines the expression intensity and expression pattern of downstream genes. It is a core regulatory element of synthetic biology that drives gene expression, regulates gene circuits, and constructs high-performance cell factories. The endogenous promoters of Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be divided into two categories: constitutive and inducible / responsive. The expression level of constitutive promoters is relatively constant, while inducible / responsive promoters respond to certain specific physical and chemical conditions such as high temperature, oxidative stress, chemical toxic substances, osmotic pressure, etc., or are related to the growth stage of the strain, and start the expression of downstream genes during a specific growth period. Currently, most promoters used to improve the high-temperature fermentation ability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are constitutive promoters, but constitutive promoters also have a high expression level in the early stage of fermentation. Using constitutive promoters to express some genes may affect the normal growth of the strain in the early stage. Compared with traditional constitutive promoters, inducible / responsive promoters have low expression in the early stage of fermentation when growth is rapid, and the expression increases under stress conditions after the fermentation temperature rises, which can effectively reduce the metabolic burden of early growth and improve the fermentation ability of the strain. In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a synthetic yeast high-temperature-responsive promoter and its application. This synthetic promoter is UX-YZ-pTDH3-core (abbreviated as pUX-YZ), where X, Y, and Z are UAS sequences at positions 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The UAS sequences are UAS-104, UAS-26, and UAS-30. UAS-104 is the upstream activator element located in the -334 to -140 region of the native Saccharomyces cerevisiae promoter pHSP104; UAS-26 is the upstream activator element located in the -509 to -291 region of pHSP26; and UAS-30 is the upstream activator element located in the -588 to -255 region of pHSP30. pTDH3-core is the core promoter element located in the -149 to -1 region of the pTDH3 promoter. This synthetic promoter is used to increase ethanol production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae under simulated industrial conditions without a cooling water gradient.

[0041] Example 3 Activity test in haploid yeast BY4741
[0042] The activity test method of the synthetic promoter in the haploid model of Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741 is as follows: take a 96-well deep-well plate, add 900 μL of YPD liquid medium containing nourseothricin (80 mg / L) and glucose (20 g / L) to each well, and then pick three (three parallel experiments) monoclonal strains in the deep-well plate containing the medium and activate them for 24 hours. 600 Each strain was transferred to a fresh 900 μL YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (20 g / L) in a deep-well plate at 0.1 and activated again for 24 hours. The activated yeast was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and the yeast was resuspended in sterile water to measure the OD. 600 The cells were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and an appropriate amount of YPD liquid medium containing glucose (40 g / L) was added to resuspend the cells. 600 Each strain was inoculated at 0.1 into a fresh 900 μL YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (40 g / L) in a 96-well deep-well plate. An airtight sealing film was used to simulate anaerobic ethanol fermentation conditions. Starting from the 16th hour of culture, the shaking table temperature was increased by 1°C every hour to simulate the gradient temperature increase conditions of industrial fermentation without cooling water. When the temperature was increased from 30°C to 37°C, the culture was continued for 24 hours. Before the 16-hour temperature rise and after the 24-hour temperature rise, appropriate amounts of bacterial culture were collected and centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes. The supernatant was removed and the cells were resuspended in 200 μL of sterile purified water and transferred to a 96-well Corning® 96-well transparent flat-bottom black microplate. The OD value of the bacterial culture was determined using a Spark® multi-function microplate reader (enzyme reader) with the temperature set to 30°C, the filter excitation wavelength of 485 nm, the excitation bandwidth of 20 nm, the emission wavelength of 535 nm, the emission bandwidth of 25 nm, and the gain of 50. 600 The OD value and fluorescence value were calculated by 200 μL sterile purified water. 600 The OD value and fluorescence value were used as reference to determine the OD value of the strain. 600 Value and fluorescence value, OD of strain 600 The values were multiplied by the same proportional coefficient, based on the fluorescence values / OD measured at 16 hours and 24 hours. 600 The experimental results are shown in the following figure. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the natural constitutive promoter pADH1 (from Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and the natural responsive promoters pHSP104, pHSP26, and pHSP30 were used as controls in this experiment. Figure 2 As can be seen in the fluorescence value / OD 600The expression strength of the promoter was evaluated by the expression value. The expression strength of the constitutive promoter pADH1 was lower after heating than before heating, while the expression strength of the natural responsive promoters pHSP104, pHSP26, and pHSP30 was higher after heating than before heating, which were 1.08, 3.12, and 2.63 times higher than before heating, respectively. The expression strength of the artificial promoters after heating was higher than before heating, with different multiples, including pU104-30-26, pU104-30-30, pU26-26-30, and pU26- The response multiples of pU30-26, pU26-30-30, pU30-104-26, pU30-104-30, pU30-26-30, pU30-30-26, and pU30-30-30 were 3.50, 4.44, 3.03, 6.36, 4.00, 3.65, 3.41, 4.23, 5.32, and 6.02, respectively. They have good response capabilities and can be used to efficiently start the expression of downstream genes of model Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741 after heating.
[0043] Example 4 Activity test of industrial yeast CY
[0044] The activity test method of the synthetic promoter in industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae CY was as follows: 900 μL of YPD liquid medium containing nourseothricin (80 mg / L) and glucose (20 g / L) was added to each well of a 96-well deep-well plate. Three (three parallel experiments) monoclonal strains were then picked and placed in the deep-well plate containing the medium. The strains were activated for 24 hours and then the starting OD was used to determine the activity of the synthetic promoter. 600 Each strain was transferred to a fresh 900 μL YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (20 g / L) in a deep-well plate at 0.1 and activated again for 24 hours. The activated yeast was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and the yeast was resuspended in sterile water to measure the OD. 600 The cells were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and an appropriate amount of YPD liquid medium containing glucose (100 g / L) was added to resuspend the cells. 600Each strain was transferred to a fresh 900 μL YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (100 g / L) in a 96-well deep-well plate at a concentration of 0.1. An airtight sealing film was used to simulate anaerobic ethanol fermentation conditions. Starting from the 16th hour of culture, the shaking table temperature was increased by 1°C every hour to simulate the gradient temperature increase conditions of industrial fermentation without cooling water. When the temperature was increased from 30°C to 37°C, the culture was continued for 24 hours. Before the 16-hour temperature rise and after the 24-hour temperature rise, appropriate amounts of bacterial suspension were collected and centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes. The supernatant was removed and the cells were resuspended in 200 μL of sterile purified water and transferred to a 96-well Corning® 96-well transparent flat-bottom black microplate. The OD value of the bacterial suspension was determined using a Spark® multi-function microplate reader (enzyme reader) with the temperature set to 30°C, the filter excitation wavelength of 485 nm, the excitation bandwidth of 20 nm, the emission wavelength of 535 nm, the emission bandwidth of 25 nm, and the gain of 50. 600 The OD value and fluorescence value were calculated by 200 μL sterile purified water. 600 The OD value and fluorescence value were used as reference to determine the OD value of the strain. 600 Value and fluorescence value, OD of strain 600 The values were multiplied by the same proportional coefficient, based on the fluorescence values / OD measured at 16 hours and 24 hours. 600 The experimental results are shown in the following figure. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the activity test results of the haploid model Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741 are similar. In this experiment, the natural constitutive promoter pADH1 was used as a control. Figure 3 As can be seen in the fluorescence value / OD 600The value was used as an indicator of promoter expression strength. The strength of the constitutive promoter pADH1 after heating was lower than that before heating, while the strength of the artificial synthetic promoters after heating was higher than that before heating, with different fold increases, including pU104-104-26, pU104-104-30, pU104-26-26, pU104-30-26, pU104-30-30, pU26-104-26, pU26-104-30, pU26-26-104, pU26-26-26, pU26-26-30, pU26-30-26, and pU26-30-30.

[0045] Example 5 Ethanol fermentation test in industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae CY
[0046] The ethanol fermentation test method of industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae CY is as follows: 900 μL of YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (20 g / L) was added to each well of a 96-well deep-well plate. Three (three parallel experiments) monoclonal strains were picked and placed in the deep-well plate containing the medium. The strains were activated for 24 hours and then the starting OD was used to determine the strain size. 600 Each strain was transferred to a fresh 900 μL YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (20 g / L) in a deep-well plate at 0.1 and activated again for 24 hours. The activated yeast was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and the yeast was resuspended in sterile water to measure the OD. 600 The cells were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and an appropriate amount of YPD liquid medium containing glucose (200 g / L) was added to resuspend the cells. 600Each strain was transferred to a fresh 900 μL YPD liquid medium containing nourseoin (80 mg / L) and glucose (200 g / L) in a 96-well deep-well plate at 0.1. An airtight sealing membrane was used to simulate anaerobic high-sugar ethanol fermentation conditions. Starting from the 16th hour of culture, the shaking temperature was increased by 1°C every hour to simulate the gradient temperature increase conditions of industrial fermentation without cooling water from 30°C to 37°C.

The supernatant was collected and filtered through a 0.22 μm polyethersulfone (PES) filter membrane. The residual glucose content and ethanol content were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. The high-performance liquid chromatography instrument was an Agilent 1260 Infinity II, the detector was a differential refractive index detector (RID), and the chromatographic column was a Bio-Rad Aminex HPX-87H (300 mm×7.8 mm). mmol / L H2SO4 solution was used as the mobile phase, the flow rate was 0.5 mL / min, and the column temperature was 45°C. Gan et al. found that transcription factors Srb2 It is involved in the regulation of long-term heat tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is a potential target for improving the ethanol fermentation capacity of industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Gan YM, Qi XN, Lin YP, et al.

The experimental results are shown in Figure 2. Figure 4As shown, it can be seen that the recombinant industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae CY strain (denoted as pU30-30-26-Srb2) containing the recombinant plasmid p414_Tcyc1-pU30-30-26-Srb2-Tpgk1 (using the Saccharomyces cerevisiae synthetic promoter pU30-30-26 to express the Srb2 gene, containing the nourseothricin resistance gene and the single cloning replication site) has an ethanol yield of 82.7 g / L and a sugar consumption of 194.5 g / L, which are 55% higher than the ethanol yield (53.1 g / L) and 20% higher than the control strain containing the recombinant plasmid p414-Vector (denoted as Vector) and the ethanol consumption (162.0 g / L) are increased. Compared with the control strain containing the recombinant plasmid p414_Tcyc1-pSrb2-Srb2-Tpgk1 (denoted as OP-Srb2), the ethanol yield (62.0 g / L) and the sugar consumption (159.5 g / L) increased by 22%.
