Embodiment
Can produce alcoholic acid microorganism cells (for example intestinal bacteria, yeast, motion fermentation sporangium etc.) for all, known alcohol production path be pyruvic acid from glycolytic pathway through acetaldehyde again to terminal meta-bolites ethanol.Pyruvic acid is controlled by Pyruvate Decarboxylase Gene pdc to the reaction process of acetaldehyde, and acetaldehyde is controlled by alcohol dehydrogenase gene adh to the alcoholic acid reaction process.Cyanobacteria exists the earth existing more than 3,500,000,000 years, is one of biology the most ancient on the earth.Its adaptive faculty is very strong, can stand high temperature, and is freezing, anoxic, dry and high salinity, many abominable life conditions such as severe radiation.Owing to do not have Pyruvate Decarboxylase Gene pdc in its genome, cause the alcohol production path incompleteness of wild strain cytoalgae 6803, thereby do not have the alcohol production ability.The present invention adopts engineered method, and a kind of aquatic green plants cyanobacteria such as low (Cyanobacteria is called for short cyanobacteria, is commonly called as blue-green algae or blue-green algae) is transformed.Thereby make cyanobacteria absorb the energy in the sunlight, directly carbonic acid gas is converted to ethanol.The cyanobacteria cytoalgae Synechocystis sp.PCC 6803 (being designated hereinafter simply as " cytoalgae 6803 ") that the present invention uses is a kind of non-thread and non-fixed nitrogen fresh water bacterial strain, has autotrophy and heterotrophic growth ability concurrently.Cytoalgae 6803 is that (Ikeuchi et al., Tanpakushitsu Kakusan Koso 1996,41 (16): 2579-2583), this has established important foundation for the engineered development of algae to first genome light autotrophic microorganism of being checked order fully.Cytoalgae 6803 can merge foreign DNA, by homologous recombination foreign DNA is incorporated on the chromosomal DNA.Because can transform naturally, its genome can accurately regulate by recombinant DNA technology (Aoki et al., J MicrobiolMethods 2002,49 (3): 265-74., Vermaas et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1986,83 (24): 9474-9477, Williams, Methods Enzymol., 1988,167:766-778).So cytoalgae 6803 is idealized systems that a kind of research and utilization plant is put photosynthetic biology of oxygen and metabolic process.It also is an expression system commonly used in the research of algae genetically engineered.People detoxifying gene, people source superoxide dismutase gene and mouse metallothionein gene successfully have been transferred in the cytoalgae 6803 (Sun Jun. biotechnology progress, 1994,14 (6): 39~42).
The present invention utilizes genetic engineering technique synthetic pyruvic carboxylase pdc and nirA promotor, it is connected with high-expression plasmid carrier PSKAIIKS, constructed recombinant plasmid pPDCNIRA, be inserted into the cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain S.strictus that screens with " heat-shocked " orthogenesis then, thereby be communicated with the ethanol synthesis path, construct recombinant bacterial strain, wherein said cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain S.strictus has very strong heat-resisting anti-ethanol ability.This recombinant bacterial strain that constructs can be induced with nitrate, utilizes solar energy and carbon dioxide production ethanol efficiently, thereby makes that this cytoalgae recombinant bacterial strain can light harvesting cooperation usefulness, and carbon dioxide collection and alcohol production three functions are in one.
The present inventor improves cytoalgae 6803 heat-resisting anti-ethanol abilities by the method for " orthogenesis ".Use carbonic acid gas (CO 2) need adopt the industrial photosynthetic organism reactor assembly of outdoor closed conduit cyanobacteria cytoalgae and gather the demand that sunlight satisfies the cyanobacteria photosynthetic response in the daytime as the extensive fuel ethanol production of carbon source.The growth temperature of general cytoalgae is about 30 ℃, and noon in summer, external temperature may be up to more than 40 ℃, and this normal growth and fuel ethanol production ability to cytoalgae has been brought adverse influence.For example, wild strain cytoalgae 6803 is not cultivated in adding temperature controlled outdoor photosynthetic organism reactor, uses the BG-11 nutrient solution.Since the very fast whole inactivations of cyanobacteria chlorophyll that just make of high temperature in the daytime, thus " albefaction " phenomenon produced, lose energy for growth; Moreover wild strain cytoalgae 6803 adds in the photosynthetic organism reactor of temperature controlled laboratory to be cultivated, and gathers 50 milliliters and places bottle, puts into 45 ℃ of water baths " heat-shocked " and takes out after two hours.Put back to 30 ℃ of shaking tables and cultivate, cyanobacteria has produced completely " albefaction " phenomenon equally after three days.
The alcohol fuel industrial production increases temperature control if desired, will additionally increase the investment of equipment and energy aspect.The present inventor has adopted the method for " orthogenesis " to improve the cyanobacteria temperature capacity, makes it and produce alcohol fuel at normal growth under the hot conditions, thereby has avoided temperature controlled needs.When the cyanobacteria mutant strain improves temperature capacity, also can improve anti-ethanol ability.
The cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain that is obtained by " orthogenesis " also has anti-ethanol ability except temperature capacity.A big problem of using cyanobacteria to produce alcohol fuel is to run up to certain concentration (for example 5% concentration) when ethanol in nutrient solution, will hinder the growth of cyanobacteria.When alcohol concn continuation increase, cyanobacteria may begin death.Improving the anti-ethanol ability of cyanobacteria cytoalgae becomes a key factor of fuel ethanol production.Current research is the result show, temperature raises, extraneous unfavorable factors such as alcohol concn increase, pair cell can produce similar stress, all can make the interior heat shock protein(HSP) height of cell express (Roy et al., JOURNAL OF BACTERIOLOGY, 180 (15): 3997-4001,1998; Glatz et al, ActaBiologica Szegediensis.46 (3-4): 53,2002).Simultaneously, result of study shows also and shows that heat-resisting anti-ethanol has interactivity (Michel et al., 1986).Work as intestinal bacteria, when the heat resistance of yeast and cyanobacteria increased, their anti-ethanol ability also increased (Horvath et al., Biochemistry, 95:3513-3518,1998) simultaneously.In wild strain cyanobacteria and " orthogenesis " cyanobacteria bacterial strain, add 5% ethanol and cultivate, find after three days that " albefaction " appears in wild strain cyanobacteria cytoalgae 6803, and the cytoalgae mutant strain of " orthogenesis " is uninfluenced.
The cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain called after cyanobacteria cytoalgae Cyanobacteria Synechocystis (abbreviating S.strictus as) that the present invention will screen by above-mentioned orthogenesis, this microorganism on August 22nd, 2007 at the common micro-organisms center (CGMCC of China Committee for Culture Collection of Microorganisms, the address: carried out preservation Datun Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing City Institute of Microorganism, Academia Sinica), deposit number is: CGMCCNO.2137).
The present invention adopts the Pyruvate Decarboxylase Gene pdc (sequence number: 1) with available nitrate inductive nirA promotor (sequence number: 2) with the homology high-expression plasmid carrier PSKAIIKS of cyanobacteria cytoalgae 6803 be connected of molecule clone technology with synthetic, constructed recombinant plasmid pPDCNIRA, change above-mentioned cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain again over to, thereby construct recombinant bacterial strain, this project bacterium can be induced with nitrate, utilizes solar energy and carbon dioxide production ethanol efficiently.The present invention adopts the nirA promotor (not being subjected to temperature, illumination effect) of chemical induction to reach the alcohol production genetic expression of stability and high efficiency, improves alcohol production efficient; And the present invention adopts " heat-shocked " orthogenesis to obtain the cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain with heat-resisting anti-alcohol performance.In addition, Comparatively speaking, the experimental data of Ennol Energy Inc. and University of Hawaii all produces photoproduction reactor in the laboratory, and the inventor also uses outdoor experimental installation to obtain than they higher alcohol production results except with the photoproduction reactor in the laboratory.
For obtaining to produce alcoholic acid cyanobacteria cytoalgae of the present invention, the polynucleotide that coding can be had the active polypeptide of pyruvic carboxylase import the above-mentioned cyanobacteria cytoalgae mutant strain that obtains, as long as the polynucleotide that import can be encoded and be had the active polypeptide of pyruvic carboxylase and just can realize purpose of the present invention, such polynucleotide are preferably sequence number: the sequence shown in 1.
On the other hand, those of ordinary skill in the art should be understood that, keto acid decarboxylase gene used in the present invention and available nitrate inductive promoter sequence are not limited to sequence number: 1 and sequence number: what 2 described sequences, coding had active proteinic other polynucleotide of keto acid decarboxylase or nucleic acid and other can all be can be used for the present invention by nitrate inductive promoter sequence.
For example, Pyruvate Decarboxylase Gene of the present invention and available nitrate inductive promoter sequence also comprise following polynucleotide, it contains and sequence number: 1 or sequence number: the polynucleotide hybridize under stringent condition that the complementary base sequence of 2 base sequences is formed, and have the polynucleotide of pyruvic carboxylase activity or nitrate inductive promoter activity, perhaps it contains and sequence number: 1 or sequence number: the polynucleotide hybridize under stringent condition that 2 base sequences are formed, and polynucleotide with pyruvic carboxylase activity or nitrate inductive chemistry promoter activity.
