Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 of marine origin, a coding gene thereof and an application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of biological enzymes. BACKGROUND
[0002] Phytic acid is an anti-nutritional factor in animal feed, which has an adverse effect on the digestion, absorption and utilization of nutrients. For many years, animal nutritionists have been working hard to find an economic and effective way to solve the influence of this anti-nutritional factor. Phytase can hydrolyze phytic acid to release inorganic phosphorus, and therefore, phytase as an animal feed additive plays an important role in improving the utilization of phosphorus in feed by monogastric animals, reducing the cost of inorganic phosphorus addition and the impact of monogastric animal excretion on the environment.
[0003] Phytases generally include acid phytase and neutral phytase. Among them, the optimum pH of acid phytase is lower than 5.5, and the optimum pH of neutral phytase is above 6.0. At present, the development and application technology of acid phytase is very mature, and acid phytase as a feed additive has been widely used in terrestrial animal feed. Since the pH of the digestive tract of most economic fish is neutral, neutral phytase is very suitable for use as a feed additive for fish in aquaculture. China's aquaculture industry is developed, and the market for neutral phytase as an aquaculture feed additive is large, but there is still a lack of neutral phytase products on the market at present, so it is necessary to accelerate the development and application technology research and development of neutral phytase.
[0004] Aquaculture includes freshwater aquaculture and marine aquaculture. Due to the large difference in salinity between freshwater and seawater, the salt tolerance of neutral phytase required in freshwater aquaculture feed and marine aquaculture feed is different. Freshwater aquaculture feed is applied to freshwater environment, and the neutral phytase used does not need to have salt tolerance. But seawater contains about 3% salinity, and the neutral phytase applied to marine aquaculture feed needs to have salt tolerance to ensure high activity in seawater environment.
[0005] Most of the existing neutral phytases are derived from terrestrial organisms and do not have salt tolerance, and are only suitable for development as freshwater aquaculture feed additives, but not suitable for development as marine aquaculture feed additives. Therefore, it is necessary to develop salt-tolerant neutral phytase of marine origin for marine aquaculture feed additives. SUMMARY
[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the application provides a salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 of marine origin, a coding gene and application thereof.The neutral phytase PHYBB1 has the highest activity in a 0.5M NaCl solution equivalent to the salinity of seawater, and still has 84.41% activity in a 1M NaCl solution, and has good salt tolerance.The salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 has a phosphorus release effect on phytic acid in animal feed, and can be used as a feed additive for seawater aquaculture, and can improve the utilization rate of phosphorus in feed by seawater aquaculture animals.

The NaCl concentration corresponding to the highest enzyme activity is the optimal NaCl concentration for this enzyme. The enzyme activity at this concentration is taken as 100%, and the relative activity at other NaCl concentrations is calculated by comparing it to this optimal concentration. The results are shown below. Figure 7 As shown.
[0125] Depend on Figure 7 It is known that the optimal NaCl concentration for neutral phytase PHYBB1 is 0.5M, and it still retains 84% activity in 1M NaCl, demonstrating excellent salt tolerance. This indicates that PHYBB1 is not only a neutral phytase, but also a salt-tolerant neutral phytase, making it suitable as a feed additive for marine aquaculture animals.
[0126] 5. Effects of metal ions on the activity of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1
[0127] Different concentrations of different metal ions and chemical reagents were added to the enzyme-catalyzed reaction system to study their effects on enzyme activity. The final concentration of each substance was 1 mM.
[0128] Specifically, following the method described in Example 3, using a solution containing 4 mM Ca 2+ Phytate (5 mM) was used as a substrate in 4 mM Ca 2 + The activity of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 was determined under the conditions of 40℃ and pH=6.5. The activity measured using the enzyme solution without added metal ions was taken as 100%, and the relative activity was obtained by comparing it with the enzyme activity after treatment with other metal ions. The results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown.
[0129] Depend on Figure 8 It can be seen that, except for Li+ which has a weak activating effect on the activity of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1, most ions have an inhibitory effect on the activity of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1, such as Zn. 2+ Fe 2+ Fe 3+ Cu 2+The activity of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 was almost completely inhibited, and SDS also almost completely inhibited its activity.
[0130] 6. Kinetic parameter analysis of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1
[0131] According to the method described in Example 3, 4 mM Ca 2+ The activity of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 was almost completely inhibited, and SDS also almost completely inhibited its activity. 2+ ) at 40°C and pH = 6.5 buffer system (containing 4 mM Ca Figure 9 ) and further calculated the corresponding reaction rate, the Km value and Vmax were obtained by Lineweaver-Burk method, the results are shown in
[0132] As can be seen from Figure 9 , the Km of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 is 0.85 mM, and the Vmax is 3.74 μmol / min / mg. And the kcat is calculated to be 2468.99 s -1 .
[0133] Example 4: Determination of the phosphorus release rate of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 on corn-soybean meal mixture phytate phosphorus
[0134] The ability of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 to hydrolyze phytate phosphorus in corn-soybean meal mixture was determined in pH = 6.5 buffer system (containing 4 mM Ca 2+ ) at 20°C and 40°C, respectively.
[0135] The specific method is as follows: 9 mL of Tris-HAc (0.1 M, pH = 6.5, containing 4 mM Ca 2+ ) was added to 1 g of corn-soybean meal mixture (corn to soybean meal mass ratio = 7:3) to obtain a mixed solution; then the mixed solution was preheated at 20°C and 40°C for 30 min, respectively, 1 mL of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 enzyme solution diluted with Tris-HAc (0.1 M, pH = 6.5, containing 4 mM Ca 2+ ) was added (the amount of enzyme added was according to 1500 U / kg of corn-soybean meal mixture), and the reaction was carried out in a shaker at 20°C and 40°C, respectively, for 2 h, then 30% trichloroacetic acid was added to terminate the reaction, and the content of inorganic phosphorus released in the reaction solution was determined. The total phosphorus content in corn-soybean meal mixture was determined according to the method in the group standard (T / CBFIA02002-2020), and the phosphorus release rate of salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 hydrolyzing corn-soybean meal mixture at 20°C and 40°C for 2 h was further calculated.
[0136] The results of the determination show that the phosphorus release rates of the salt-tolerant neutral phytase PHYBB1 in hydrolyzing corn-soybean meal mixture for 2 hours at 20 DEG C and 40 DEG C are 32% and 36% respectively, which further proves that the enzyme PHYBB1 provided by the application is a salt-tolerant neutral phytase, has high phosphorus release activity on sodium phytate and corn-soybean meal mixture phytate phosphorus, and is suitable for development as an aquatic animal feed additive.
