Description

Ultra-long escherichia coli and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and relates to ultralong escherichia coli, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
In many areas of scientific research, bacterial size has a significant impact on bacterial detection, such as oxidative stress detection, motility and chemotaxis studies, antibiotic sensitivity, single cell detection, and whole body imaging analysis. Since larger bacteria have more surface antigens and binding sites, the detection sensitivity can be improved. In addition, the formation of the ultra-long escherichia coli plays an important role in sewage treatment by an activated sludge method, the ultra-long escherichia coli in the activated sludge can serve as a skeleton, the strength of sludge flocs is ensured, the settling property of the sludge is improved, and the purification efficiency of effluent is influenced. In addition, the ultra-long escherichia coli is a product which is not broken due to cell division caused by the division phase defect, has stronger capabilities of resisting phagocytosis and resisting adverse environment, has stronger capability of taking food than bacteria in a normal form, and has higher survival rate than normal cells.
Adverse environmental stresses such as SOS reactions, DNA damage, high pressure and dehydration have been reported to lead to the formation of very long E.coli. It has been shown that antibiotics promote growth of E.coli, such as cephalexin. There are two mechanisms by which cephalexin is induced to form very long E.coli, the first is to inhibit the formation of cross-links of peptidoglycan layers and the synthesis of cell walls by binding to Penicillin Binding Proteins (PBPs) on the cell walls, resulting in cell wall growth without splitting; the second possible mechanism is the SOS reaction caused by the antibiotic effect of cephalexin, resulting in an incomplete cell membrane and cell wall. The concentration of cephalexin also affects the elongation effect of escherichia coli, and when the concentration of cephalexin is lower than the minimum inhibitory concentration, overlength escherichia coli can be formed, but when the concentration is higher, the bacteria can be inactivated. Although antibiotics can induce the formation of ultra-long escherichia coli, only the unilateral effect of the antibiotics is considered, and the extension of the length of escherichia coli by only the antibiotics cannot meet the requirements of current scientific research.
UV light is a physical method of forming very long E.coli by activating specific genes and inducing SOS response after destroying or inhibiting the replication of DNA in cells by continuous UV irradiation. SOS reaction can inhibit bacterial division, and allow bacteria to grow but not divide, thereby forming ultra-long Escherichia coli. The type of UV light, the intensity, duration and frequency of the light, etc., all affect the formation of ultra-long E.coli. The ultra-long E.coli produced by UV irradiation has low survival rate due to DNA damage, and poor heritability, and the division ability of cells is slowly restored once the damaged DNA is repaired.
Therefore, the method for preparing the ultra-long escherichia coli has great value for bacterial detection, wastewater treatment and other scientific researches with requirements on bacterial survival rate.

Example 2 preparation of ultra-Long Escherichia coli by SDS
SDS is a white or light yellow slightly viscous substance, is easy to dissolve in water, and has good emulsifying and decontaminating performance.

Example 3Tween-20 production of ultra-Long E.coli
Tween-20 has strong hydrophilic property due to the molecular formula containing more hydrophilic groups, is often used as an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsifier, and can be used together with other emulsifiers to enhance the stability of the emulsifiers. Tween-20 was formulated at a higher concentration than CTAB and SDS (in water) due to its low toxicity, so that it was present in the medium at six concentrations, 0.02%, 0.1%, 0.2% (w/w), 1% (w/w), 2% (w/w) and 10% (w/w), respectively.

Example 4 ultra-Long E.coli characterization
(1) Calculation of average Length of ultra-Long Escherichia coli
According to the following three assumptions: 1) the surface charge of the E.coli was not changed by the surfactant, 2) the charge was uniformly distributed along the E.coli, 3) the E.coli was rod-shaped and columnar, and the average lengths of the E.coli samples (examples 1 to 3) treated with cephalexin, cephalexin and surfactant were calculated, respectively.
The calculation method comprises the following steps:
electrophoretic mobility vs e.coli charge relationship: q6 pi η r mu (1)
The zeta potential z is related to the electrophoretic mobility by:
Figure BDA0002600206700000061
(1) the following equations and (2) are combined to obtain the zeta potential z as a function of E.coli charge: q ═ 4 pi rzf (ka) (3)
Assuming that escherichia coli is a cylinder with diameter D, length L, and ratio n ═ L/D, the diffusion coefficient D is:
Figure BDA0002600206700000071
according to the einstein-stokes relationship:
Figure BDA0002600206700000072
combining the formulas (4) and (5) to obtain:
Figure BDA0002600206700000073
assuming that the charge is uniformly distributed along the E.coli, we have: q Adn (7)
The combination of the formulas (3), (6) and (7) gives:
Figure BDA0002600206700000074
finally obtaining the relation between the zeta potential z and the length of the escherichia coli according to the formula (8):
Figure BDA0002600206700000075
in the formula: q is the net charge of E.coli, η is the viscosity of water, r is the hydrodynamic radius of E.coli and μ is the electrophoretic mobility. Is the dielectric constant of water, and f (ka) is the henry function (which is 1.5 according to the semorvue-fusi approximation). k is the boltzmann constant and T is the absolute temperature.
From the final formula, the zeta potential z is related to n, and n is L/d, so that the zeta potential z on the cell surface of E.coli is positively related to the length of the bacteria, i.e., the higher the zeta potential on the cell surface, the longer the bacteria will be
The length of E.coli prepared in example 1 is shown in FIG. 2, and it can be seen from the figure that the average length of E.coli produced with CTAB in combination with cephalexin at concentrations of 0.005% (w/w) and 0.02% (w/w) is slightly shorter than that of E.coli produced with cephalexin alone, wherein the elongation effect of 0.005% (w/w) CTAB is least desirable. CTAB at concentrations of 0.0005% (w/w), 0.001% (w/w), 0.002% (w/w) and 0.01% (w/w) all enhanced the effect of cephalexin in elongating E.coli, with the 0.001% (w/w) enhancement being the best, about 1.5 times that of cephalexin (Cex) alone.
The length of E.coli prepared in example 2 is shown in FIG. 3, and it can be seen that five different concentrations of SDS enhance the effect of cephalexin-elongating E.coli, wherein the enhancing effect of 0.5% (w/w) is least significant, and the enhancing effect of 0.1% (w/w) SDS is the best, about 2 times that of cephalexin alone. It can also be seen that the 0.05% (w/w) and 0.2% (w/w) elongation effects are about 1.8 times as much as cefalexin alone, and that the 0.005% (w/w) elongation effect is more pronounced than the 0.02% (w/w).
The length of E.coli prepared in example 3 is shown in FIG. 4, and it can be seen that different concentrations of Tween-20 have an enhancing effect on the elongation of E.coli by cephalexin, and the elongation effect is significantly different. The effect of 0.02% (w/w), 0.1% and 0.2% (w/w) Tween-20 in enhancing cefalexin and prolonging Escherichia coli is similar, and the length distribution is uniform. The 1% (w/w) and 2% (w/w) Tween-20 have significant effect on the elongation of Escherichia coli, wherein the elongation of 1% (w/w) Tween-20 is the best, which is about 3 times that of cefalexin alone.
(2) Ultra-long E.coli cell membrane integrity and DNA distribution
Surfactants have cytotoxic properties such as inducing lysis of gram positive and gram negative bacteria, inhibiting bacterial growth and altering cell wall structure and porosity. Meanwhile, cefalexin as an antibiotic has a certain bacteriostatic effect. It was therefore necessary to determine whether the bacteria treated with the surfactant in combination with cephalexin, or those treated with cephalexin, had normal cellular activity.
Firstly, collecting the Escherichia coli liquid cultured normally for 4h at 37 ℃ under the aerobic condition of 60 rpm.
② collecting Escherichia coli with 90 ug/mL cephalexin exposed for 4h (cephalexin added in LB medium) under aerobic condition of 37 ℃ and 60rpm
And thirdly, respectively collecting escherichia coli which is exposed for 4 hours (surfactant and cephalexin are added in LB culture medium) through 0.001% (W/W) CTAB +90 mug/mL cephalexin, 0.1% (W/W) SDS +90 mug/mL cephalexin and 1% (W/W) Tween-20+90 mug/mL cephalexin.
And fourthly, respectively taking 500 mu L of bacteria sample in the third step, staining the bacteria sample with 200 mu L of DAPI for 5min, centrifuging the bacteria sample at 8000rpm for 5min, and collecting the bacteria sample.
Fifthly, resuspending the bacterial particles in the fourth step in 200 mu L FM4-64 solution respectively, culturing for 1 minute at 0 ℃, centrifuging the suspension for 5 minutes at 8000rpm, collecting the bacterial particles and resuspending the bacterial particles in distilled water respectively.
Sixthly, respectively observing the bacterial cell membrane and DNA in the fifth step by using a fluorescence microscope.
As shown in FIG. 5, the DNA distribution of the ultra-long E.coli produced by the combined action of the surfactant and the antibiotic was longer than that of the normal cells and that of the ultra-long bacteria produced by the action of cephalexin, and was normally distributed in the cells and uniformly distributed in the longitudinal direction of E.coli.
The distribution of cell membranes is shown in FIG. 6, the cell membranes of the ultra-long Escherichia coli generated by the combined action of the surfactant and the antibiotic are longer than those of the normal cells and the ultra-long bacteria generated by the action of the cephalexin, and the cell membranes are continuously and uniformly distributed on the surface of the Escherichia coli, and the surface morphology is normal.
Thus, the bacteria acted on by the surfactant in combination with cephalexin had normal cellular activity.
(3) Surfactant interaction with cells
The surfactant can interact with cell membrane, promote transmembrane transport of organic matters, and improve permeability of cell membrane. Surfactants are structurally similar to lipids on cell membranes, so surfactants are likely to interact with E.coli by being heavily inserted into the cell membrane, a hypothesis that we have verified by zeta potential measurements. The zeta potential of E.coli is proportional to the charge, and when a surfactant is inserted or bound in large amounts to the cell surface (including cell membrane and cell wall), the zeta potential changes, which should be different for SDS and CTAB carrying different charges.
Firstly, collecting the Escherichia coli liquid cultured normally for 4h at 37 ℃ under the aerobic condition of 60 rpm.
② collecting Escherichia coli exposed to cefalexin at 90. mu.g/mL for 4 hours (cefalexin was added to LB medium) at 37 ℃ under aerobic condition of 60 rpm.
③ respectively collecting Escherichia coli which is exposed for 4h (surfactant and cephalexin are added in LB culture medium) by 0.001 percent (W/W) CTAB +90 mug/mL cephalexin, 0.1 percent (W/W) SDS +90 mug/mL cephalexin and 1 percent (W/W) Tween-20+90 mug/mL cephalexin under the aerobic condition of 37 ℃ and 60 rpm.
And fourthly, respectively centrifuging the escherichia coli samples in the second step and the third step for 5min at 8000rpm, collecting bacterial particles after centrifugation is finished, and re-suspending the bacterial particles in pure water.
(v) measuring the surface potential of the cell membrane of Escherichia coli in (v) with Zeta-PALS (ZETAPALS/BI-200SM, Brookhaven, USA) three times under the same experimental conditions.
As shown in FIG. 7, the Zeta potential of the cell membrane surface was lower than that of the untreated E.coli, regardless of whether the treated E.coli was treated with cephalexin alone or with a surfactant in combination with cephalexin. Meanwhile, the zeta potential of the escherichia coli treated by the cefalexin alone is obviously changed. However, the zeta potential of the surfactant and the E.coli sample treated with cephalexin almost agreed with that of the E.coli sample treated with cephalexin alone.
The above results indicate that the surfactant is not inserted or bound to the cell surface and does not alter the normal function of E.coli.
Comparative example 1 production of ultra-long E.coli by conventional technique
[ solution ] Escherichia coli was inoculated into LB medium containing 10g/L sodium chloride, 5g/L yeast extract and 10g/L tryptone, pH 7.0, and cultured overnight at 37 ℃ under aerobic conditions at 60rpm for 12 hours (using a 250mL Erlenmeyer flask, the same applies hereinafter).
② 12h culture and absorbance value of 0.5(OD 0.5) bacterial liquid using medium dilution 1000 times, diluted Escherichia coli inoculated into LB medium, 37 degrees C, 60rpm aerobic culture for 2 h.
③ inoculating the bacteria in the second step into LB culture medium of 80 mug/mL cephalexin, 90 mug/mL cephalexin and 100 mug/mL cephalexin respectively, aerobically culturing for 4h at 37 ℃ and 60rpm, and measuring the length of the bacteria after the culture is finished.
Fourthly, respectively inoculating the bacteria in the second step into 80 mu g/mL cephalexin, 90 mu g/mL cephalexin and 100 mu g/mL cephalexin LB culture media, carrying out aerobic culture at 37 ℃ and 60rpm for 8h, and measuring the length of the bacteria after the culture is finished.
Fifthly, respectively randomly extracting 50 strains of escherichia coli treated by cephalexin with different concentrations from each group, and measuring the length by adopting an electron microscope. The length calculation method was the same as in example 4, step (1).
As a result, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the optimum concentration of cephalexin was 90. mu.g/mL, and the optimum treatment time was 4 hours. The number of cells after culture is reduced because cefalexin has certain cytotoxicity. Too long incubation time (8 hours), depletion of cefalexin, and a decrease in concentration resulted in disappearance of prolonged results (fig. 9 c). The concentration of the cefalexin is the key for obtaining the ultra-long escherichia coli, and the control needs to be realized through accurate culture time control, namely, the escherichia coli is gradually increased along with the extension of the culture time, and meanwhile, the amount of the cefalexin in the escherichia coli is gradually reduced. During the first four hours, the amount of cephalexin is still sub-lethal, as evidenced by the fact that E.coli is still growing. After four hours, the E.coli cells were gradually recovered as the amount of cefalexin decreased beyond the effective concentration. The attenuation time of cefalexin is strictly controlled, so that the ultra-long escherichia coli can be obtained to the maximum extent. In addition, electron microscope measurement is carried out on the ultra-long escherichia coli (obtained in the third step) prepared by the traditional method, and the measurement result shows that the ultra-long escherichia coli is in a long filament shape with the width of about 1 micron, and the length of the ultra-long escherichia coli is nearly hundred times longer than that of common escherichia coli (figure 10). It was also found that the very long E.coli only occupies a small fraction of the total amount of all E.coli, and that the vast majority of E.coli is still in an unextended state.
Comparative example 2
The speed of bacteria shaking in the third step of the embodiment 1 is changed into 0rpm, 30rpm and 200rpm respectively, and other conditions are completely the same, so that the ultra-long escherichia coli is prepared. The container for shaking the bacteria in the third step of the example 1 is changed into a 50mL centrifuge tube, a 500mL conical flask and a 1000mL conical flask respectively, and the rest conditions are completely the same, so that the ultra-long escherichia coli is prepared.
As a result, it was confirmed that the growth of Escherichia coli was slow due to insufficient number of revolutions during shaking or static culture (number of revolutions: 0) and that a sufficient amount of Escherichia coli could not be obtained; on the other hand, too high a bacterial shaking speed results in a shorter longest length of E.coli. Along with the increase of the caliber of the bacteria container, the mechanical shearing force effect generated by the same revolution is greatly different. At about 60rpm, the ultra-long Escherichia coli can be prepared by shaking the bacteria in a 250mL conical flask. If a bacterium container with a larger caliber is used, the rotation number is reduced so as to prevent the death of bacteria or the breakage of ultra-long escherichia coli caused by excessive mechanical collision; if a fungus container with a smaller caliber is used, the rotation number should be increased correspondingly.
Comparative example 3
Escherichia coli (E.coli pD1B10, E.coli BL21, E.coli MG1655 strain) was inoculated into LB medium containing 10g/L sodium chloride, 5g/L yeast extract and 10g/L tryptone, respectively, at pH 7.0, and cultured overnight at 37 ℃ and 60rpm in the presence of oxygen for 12 hours (using a 250mL Erlenmeyer flask, the same applies below).
② 12h culture and absorbance value of 0.5(OD 0.5) bacterial liquid using medium dilution 1000 times, diluted Escherichia coli inoculated into LB medium, 37 degrees C, 60rpm aerobic culture for 2 h.
③ inoculating the bacterium of step II to LB culture medium of cephalexin of 30 ug/mL, 45 ug/mL, 60 ug/mL, 75 ug/mL, 90 ug/mL, 105 ug/mL and 120 ug/mL, aerobically culturing at 37 ℃ and 60rpm for 4h, and measuring the length of the bacterium after the culture.
The results are shown in FIG. 11, where different E.coli strains have different concentrations of cefalexin to be used for preparing the over-length E.coli.
