Description

(I) Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering technology, and specifically relates to bacteria derived from Pseudomonas (…). Pseudomonas Recombinant esterases (sp.), engineered bacteria, and their application in the degradation of carbaryl. (II) Background Technology

[0002] Carbaryl, also known as carbaryl carbamate, scientifically named 1-naphthyl-N-methylcarbamate, is a widely used carbamate insecticide. Its main insecticidal mechanism is the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase in insects. Carbaryl has contact, stomach, and weak fumigation effects, meaning that insects will die from contact with the pesticide or from ingesting sprayed plants. Carbaryl has been widely used in: agriculture – for controlling lepidopteran pests (such as leafrollers), coleopteran pests (such as scarab beetles), and hemiptera pests (such as aphids) on various crops including rice, cotton, and fruit trees; forestry – for controlling forest pests; and public health – for controlling sanitary pests such as mosquitoes and flies.

[0003] However, carbaryl also has certain drawbacks: it is highly toxic to bees, causing their death when used during flowering, threatening pollinating insects and the ecological balance; it is also highly toxic to aquatic organisms, posing a risk of water pollution. It also poses a threat to human health; large-scale exposure can cause typical carbamate pesticide poisoning symptoms such as tearing, constricted pupils, muscle tremors, nausea, and vomiting.

[0004] Compared to traditional physical and chemical treatment methods, microbial degradation is a novel pathway for pesticide degradation. Its advantages include low input, non-toxicity, no residue, and no secondary pollution. The treatment effect is also relatively significant, making it a recognized low-cost and environmentally friendly method for removing pollutants. Microorganisms can utilize pesticides as their sole carbon or nitrogen source for growth. They produce degrading enzymes that hydrolyze and oxidize pesticides. The main mode of microbial pesticide degradation is enzymatic degradation, where compounds enter bacteria through specific pathways and, under the action of various enzymes, undergo a series of physiological and biochemical reactions, ultimately partially or completely degrading the pesticide.

[0005] Currently, the following gene sequences for carbaryl hydrolase have been reported both domestically and internationally: mcb A (from) Pseudomonas sp.XWY-1); car H (from) Agrobacterium sp. XWY-2), cehA (from) Rhizobium sp. AC100). pch A (from) Pseudomonas sp. PS21); cah A (from) Arthrobacter (sp. RC100), the hydrolysis product is α-naphthol. However, the amino acid sequences of these enzymes are relatively long, which is not conducive to their artificial synthesis and application. (III) Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a recombinant esterase, an engineered bacterium, and its application in the hydrolysis of carbaryl. This esterase has a short amino acid sequence, is easy to synthesize and express artificially, and has high hydrolytic activity, and can be used to enhance the degradation of residual carbaryl in the environment.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this invention is:

[0008] This invention provides a strain derived from Pseudomonas ( Pseudomonas A recombinant esterase (denoted as XQest) of sp., the amino acid sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID No. 2.

[0009] This invention relates to the encoding gene of the recombinant esterase, the nucleotide sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID No. 1.

[0010] This invention also provides a recombinant plasmid containing the recombinant esterase encoding gene (preferably pET-28a(+)-GE003489), and a recombinant genetically engineered bacterium obtained by transformation of the recombinant plasmid (preferably...). E. coli BL21(DE3)-pET-28a(+)-GE003489).

[0011] Furthermore, the present invention also provides an application of the recombinant esterase in the hydrolysis of carbaryl, specifically: using purified enzyme solution extracted from wet cell lysis obtained by induced fermentation of engineered bacteria containing the recombinant esterase encoding gene as a catalyst, carbaryl as a substrate, and a buffer solution with pH 7.0-9.0 as a reaction medium, the hydrolysis reaction is carried out under the conditions of 20-60 °C and 120-240 rpm (preferably 37 °C and 200 rpm).

[0012] Preferably, the reaction medium is a 50 mM phosphate (PB) buffer solution with pH 7.4; the amount of substrate added is 0.1-1 g / L based on the total volume of the reaction system, preferably 0.1 g / L; and the amount of catalyst used is 80-200 mg / L based on the protein content, preferably 100 mg / L.

[0013] Further, the catalyst is prepared as follows: (1) wet bacterial cells are resuspended in pre-cooled pH 7.0, 50 mM phosphate buffer to obtain a bacterial suspension; the bacterial suspension is sonicated at 0-4 ℃ and 350-450 W for 10-15 min, with a working interval of 2 s and a 3 s interval during sonication; the obtained lysate is centrifuged at 4 ℃ and 5500-8000 rpm for 30 min, and the supernatant is collected; (2) the Ni-NTA affinity chromatography column is equilibrated with pH 7.4, 50 mM PB buffer containing 10-20 mM imidazole, and the supernatant obtained in step (1) is loaded at a rate of 1 ml / min. After loading, the column is first equilibrated with pH 7.4, 50 mM PB buffer containing 20-40 mM imidazole. The column was washed with mM PB buffer until the UV absorption reached a stable baseline. The target protein was then eluted in one step with 50mM PB buffer at pH 7.4 containing 250-300mM imidazole. The eluent containing the target protein was collected, dialyzed, and concentrated to obtain the purified enzyme solution of recombinant esterase.

[0014] Preferably, the dialysis and concentration method is as follows: using a dialysis bag with a molecular weight cutoff of 3500, dialyze in a pH 7.4, 50 mMPB buffer to remove salt ions from the eluent, and then concentrate the retentate to 1 / 10 of the original volume with polyethylene glycol (20000). The concentrate is then taken to obtain the purified enzyme solution of recombinant esterase.

[0015] Preferably, the wet bacterial cell concentration in the bacterial suspension is 0.5-35 g / L (preferably 10 g / L). The ultrasonic disruption conditions are 4 ℃, 400 W, and 15 min.

[0016] Preferably, the wet bacterial cells are obtained according to the following steps: Engineered bacteria containing the recombinant esterase encoding gene are inoculated into LB liquid medium containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin and cultured in a constant temperature shaker at 37 ℃ and 200 rpm for 12-16 h to obtain a seed culture; then, the seed culture is transferred to LB liquid medium containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin at a volume concentration of 1% and cultured in a constant temperature shaker at 37 ℃ and 200 rpm until the OD 600 reaches 0.6-0.8; IPTG is added to a final concentration of 0.1 mM, and the culture is induced in a constant temperature shaker at 24 ℃ and 180-200 rpm for 14 h; after fermentation, the culture is centrifuged at 4 ℃ and 5500-8000 rpm for 15 min to obtain wet bacterial cells.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are mainly reflected in:

[0018] This invention identifies a novel esterase gene, GE003489, from Pseudomonas bacteria capable of hydrolyzing carbaryl. This gene is 948 bp in length (from start codon to stop codon) and encodes 315 amino acids. The encoded esterase is named XQest. Compared to existing esterases, this recombinant esterase has a shorter amino acid length, which is beneficial for artificial synthesis and exogenous expression.

[0019] The recombinant esterase encoding gene provided by this invention was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli to construct engineered bacteria. E. coli The recombinant esterase expressed by BL21(DE3)-pET-28a(+)-GE003489 exhibits good hydrolytic ability for carbaryl. Using an appropriate amount of recombinant esterase to catalyze the hydrolysis of carbaryl at a substrate concentration of 0.1 g / L and a catalytic time of 1 h, the substrate conversion rate was 90.5%. This enzyme has potential application value for removing carbaryl contamination from the environment. (iv) Description of the attached drawings

The bacterial suspension is ultrasonically disrupted at 4 ℃ and 400 W for 10 min, with a 2 s interval and a 3 s interval. Centrifuge the obtained disrupted liquid at 4 ℃ and 8000 rpm for 30 min, and collect the supernatant, which is the crude enzyme solution.

[0062] (2) Ni-NTA affinity chromatography: The Ni-NTA affinity chromatography column (GXK 16 / 20 jacketed protein chromatography column, 1.6×20cm) was equilibrated with PB buffer containing 10mM imidazole at pH 7.4 and 50mM. The supernatant obtained in step (1) was loaded at a rate of 1 mL / min. The column was then washed with PB buffer containing 20mM imidazole at pH 7.4 and 50mM until the UV absorption reached a stable baseline. Finally, the target protein was eluted in one step with PB buffer containing 250mM imidazole at pH 7.4 and 50mM, for 10 column volumes. Collect the eluent containing the target protein. Dialyze the eluent in dialysis buffer (pH 7.4, 50 mM PB buffer) using a dialysis bag (molecular weight cutoff 3500) to remove salt ions. The retentate is then concentrated to 1 / 10 of its original volume using polyethylene glycol (20000). The concentrate is collected to obtain the purified enzyme solution of the recombinant esterase. The purified protein bands are shown in the figure. Figure 3 Lane 4. Protein content was determined using the Bradford method for subsequent hydrolysis reactions.

The total reaction system was 1 mL, and the reaction was carried out in a metal bath at 37 ℃ and 200 r / min for 1 h. The conversion rate of the substrate was 90.5%.
