Detailed Description
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.
Interpretation of terms:
unnatural amino acids: an unnatural amino acid refers to an amino acid that is not encoded by the existing 64 genetic codons, i.e., an amino acid that differs from the existing 20 natural amino acids.
Orthogonality of unnatural amino acid introduction: exogenously introduced aminoacyl-tRNA synthases (aaRS) recognize only exogenously introduced trnas, linking unnatural amino acids to trnas to form certain aminoacyl-trnas, and do not cross-react with aminoacyl-tRNA synthases endogenous to the host cell, endogenous trnas, and natural amino acids. A aminoacyl-tRNA is a product formed by linking an amino acid to a tRNA, e.g., tyrosine, to a tRNA.
As mentioned in the background, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases used in the prior art catalyze the binding of amino acid derivatives to the corresponding tRNA to produce an aminoacyl-tRNA. However, the binding specificity of the non-natural amino acid is not strong, and the natural amino acid is easily introduced in the specific application process, so that the product is not pure.
Therefore, in the present application, aiming at the problems of the introduction of tyrosine derivatives such as O-allyl-L-tyrosine (OAY), the inventors constructed a saturated mutation library with 14 sites for tyrosyl-tRNA synthase mutant pNFRS derived from Methanodococcus jannaschii on the one hand, and obtained high specificity aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant through multiple rounds of screening; on the other hand, the inventor tries to obtain an aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant with higher specificity through multiple rounds of screening by using pNFRS-160H with lower natural amino acid introduction as a starting template and a positive and negative screening system based on red fluorescent protein and antibiotic resistance genes. Thus a series of protection schemes of the present application are proposed.
In a first exemplary embodiment of the present application, there is provided an aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant comprising: SEQ ID NO:1, and the mutation is selected from N160 mutation and any one or more of the following mutations: the A31 mutation is A31S, A31G, A31C, A31T or A31L; the L32 mutation is L32G, L32S, L32C, L32T, L32V, L32A or L32I; the L65 mutation is L65V, L65T, L65C or L65I; the A67 mutation is A67S; l69 is mutated into L69S, L69V or L69I; s107 is mutated to S107R, S107A or S107T; f108 is mutated to F108S, F108H or F108W; q109 is mutated to Q109G, Q109S, Q109V or Q109N; l110 is mutated to L110R, L110Y, L110K, L110I or L110V; the P158 is mutated into P158A, P158L, P158T, P158S, P158D or P158M; l159 is mutated to L159T, L159Q, L159C, L159E, L159V, L159D, L159I or L159A; y161 is mutated to Y161M, Y161Q, Y161T, Y161N, Y161S, Y161W or Y161F; e162 mutation to E162V, E162M, E162A, E162L, E162T, E162I or E162D; wherein the N160 mutation is N160S, N160G, N160L, N160E, N160F, N160D, N160A, N160I, N160M, N160H or N160V.
The inventor compares that mutation N160 is H160 on the basis of pNFRS, or mutation S207 is A207, tests show that the mutation of N160 into H160 has lower natural amino acid introduction, structural analysis shows that N160 can form hydrogen bond with hydroxyl of Tyr (tyrosine), and the hydrogen bond is destroyed after the mutation of N160 into H and other amino acids, so that the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase can not form hydrogen bond with Tyr, therefore, the pNFRS-160H is supposed to be used as a starting template to form hydrogen bond with tyrosine para-hydroxyl

Constructing a multi-site saturated mutation library by removing other 13 amino acids at position 160 in the library can obtain more specific aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutants, and the result indeed obtains more efficient and specific aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutants introduced by unnatural amino acids through high-throughput screening.
In a preferred embodiment, the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 1, and a mutant which has any one of the following combined mutations based on the amino acid sequence of pNFRS shown in the specification:

the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutants are all mutants obtained by mutation based on the amino acid sequence of pNFRS, and have higher introduction specificity for tyrosine derivatives compared with the original protein and the existing protein.
The distances between the mutant sites and tyrosine para-hydroxyl are all between
Figure BDA0003830816160000041
Therefore, the binding energy of the site and the para-hydroxyl of tyrosine is large, and the specific binding effect on tyrosine is large. As a derivative of the unnatural amino acid tyrosine (e.g., allyltyrosine) as compared to the substrate tyrosine, substitution reaction can occur at the position of the hydroxyl group para to tyrosine to form an ether bond instead of the hydroxyl group. Therefore, the research on the amino acid near the para-hydroxyl can influence the binding specificity of the protein to the substrate.
But because of
Figure BDA0003830816160000051
Too many sites within it, it is difficult to simulate the structure and activity of a protein having multiple site mutations by a method such as computer estimation, and the simulation resultsThe results of (a) also show a large deviation in practical use. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain a large number of screens through practical tests to obtain a combination of specific mutation sites that will result in a better active aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant.
In a second exemplary embodiment of the present application, a DNA molecule is provided that encodes the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant described above.
In a third exemplary embodiment of the present application, a recombinant plasmid is provided, to which the above-described DNA molecule is ligated.
The DNA encodes the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant and can be connected to a recombinant plasmid to form a circular DNA. The aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant can be obtained by transcribing and translating the DNA and the recombinant plasmid under the action of RNA polymerase, ribosome, tRNA and the like. Aiming at different host types of DNA molecules or recombinant plasmids, the prior art can be utilized to flexibly perform codon optimization on the nucleotide sequence, thereby obtaining the nucleotide sequence with higher transcription and translation efficiency.
In a fourth exemplary embodiment of the present application, a host cell is provided, which contains the above-mentioned DNA molecule or recombinant plasmid.
In a preferred embodiment, the host cell comprises a prokaryotic cell; preferably, the prokaryotic cell comprises E.coli.
The host cell can be used to replicate the recombinant plasmid in the host cell, and can also be used to transcribe and translate the DNA molecule carried on the recombinant plasmid to obtain a large number of aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutants. The host cell is enabled to synthesize the exogenous tRNA corresponding to the aminoacyl-tRNA by introducing an expression plasmid of the exogenous tRNA into the host cell, express an aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant, and add a tyrosine derivative as a substrate outside, namely, catalysis aiming at the tyrosine derivative and the tRNA can be carried out in an organism to obtain a corresponding aminoacyl-tRNA. Although the host cell can synthesize natural amino acids such as tyrosine by itself due to the binding specificity of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant, the host cell can synthesize fewer natural amino acids, that is, the aminoacyl-tRNA which is generated by combining the unnatural amino acid and the tRNA is mainly generated, and the aminoacyl-tRNA carries the target unnatural amino acid.
In a fifth exemplary embodiment of the present application, a method for producing an alkenyltyrosyl-tRNA is provided, wherein the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant is used to catalyze the binding of alkenyltyrosine and tRNA to produce the alkenyltyrosyl-tRNA.
In a preferred embodiment, the alkenyltyrosine comprises O-allyl-L-tyrosine.
In a preferred embodiment, the concentration of O-allyl-L-tyrosine is 1 to 5mM; preferably, the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant contained in the host cell is used for catalyzing the combination of alkenyl tyrosine and tRNA, and the combination has the orthogonality introduced by unnatural amino acid; preferably, the alkenyl tyrosine is dissolved in 2-10M sodium hydroxide to form an alkenyl tyrosine solution, and the pH of the alkenyl tyrosine solution is 9-11; more preferably, the sodium hydroxide concentration is 10M and the pH of the alkenyl tyrosine solution is 10.
The alkenyltyrosyl-tRNA is prepared by catalyzing the binding of an alkenyltyrosine, such as O-allyl-L-tyrosine, to the corresponding tRNA using an aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant according to the above-described preparation method. the tRNA theoretically corresponds to the amino acid to be introduced. For the purpose of introducing a specific amino acid, it is necessary to ensure that the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant, the specific amino acid (i.e., the unnatural amino acid), and the corresponding tRNA used do not cross-react with the host cell (e.g., E.coli) derived synthase, the natural amino acid, and the tRNA. Therefore, on one hand, the method can be used for the site-specific introduction of the unnatural amino acid in vivo, and in addition, the preparation method can flexibly select enzyme catalysis, immobilization, biotransformation and other modes for the in vitro preparation of the alkenyl tyrosyl-tRNA, so that the method can be used for the efficient synthesis of the protein containing the unnatural amino acid in a cell-free synthesis mode.
Based on the fact that the host cell can generate tRNA raw materials by itself, the host cell carrying the DNA molecules, the exogenous orthogonal tRNA and the recombinant plasmid can express exogenous aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutants and exogenous orthogonal tRNA, so that the catalysis effect is exerted, and the alkenyl tyrosyl-tRNA product is obtained. The catalytic reaction is a bioorthogonal reaction, and compounds produced in host cells comprise natural amino acids and do not participate in the catalytic reaction; the products of the alkenyl tyrosine, exogenous orthogonal tyrosine tRNA and alkenyl tyrosyl tRNA required by the catalytic reaction do not affect the self-biochemical reaction and the vital activity of the host cell.
The advantageous effects of the present application will be explained in further detail below with reference to specific examples.

Example 4 selection of mutant templates
To improve the specific introduction of unnatural amino acids and to improve the efficiency of the screening, reducing or eliminating the introduction of natural amino acids by aminoacyl-tRNA synthases will aid in the screening process. The wild type aminoacyl-tRNA synthase MjTyrRS from Methanodococcus jannaschii is initially adopted for screening, the specificity of the MjTyrRS is used for identifying the tyrosine Tyr which is a natural substrate, so the success rate during screening is not high, and the specificity of the mutation obtained by screening is poor, so the MjTyrRS mutant with low background is supposed to be beneficial to obtaining a novel high-efficiency specific aminoacyl-tRNA synthase mutant, and the discovery is made by combining literature research to find that the MjTyrRS mutant pNFRS can introduce p-nitro-L-phenylalanine pNF, p-iodo-L-phenylalanine pIF and tyrosine, but the specificity is poor. Therefore, a codon-optimized pNFRS sequence is synthesized, and based on the above embodiment, structural simulation and docking analysis are combined, N160H (nucleotide 478-480, prokaryotic nucleotide aac, mutated to cat-encoded His) and S207A (nucleotide 619-621, nucleotide agc, mutated to gcg-encoded alanine) are obtained through further mutation, amino acid introduction comparison is carried out, and a more appropriate template is found for mutation research.
pNFRS, pNFRS-160H and pNFRS-S207A coding sequences were ligated to pET-Gln, respectively, and screening plasmid REP based on red fluorescent protein was co-transformed into DH10B, which was cultured in LB medium with and without the addition of corresponding amino acids, and the results are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0003830816160000091
Therefore, the optimal initial template is pNFRS-160H, and in order to verify the feasibility of the method, pNFRS and pNFRS-160H are respectively selected as templates to construct a multi-point mutation library for screening.
EXAMPLE 5 construction of pNFRS-160H synthase mutant library
From the results of the experiments in example 4, it was found that after the 160H mutation, specificity was enhanced by the introduction of the unnatural amino acid, thus creating a library of mutant synthases, which retained the 160H site, and other primers were used as in example 3, except for the 158-162MNN primer changes, such as SEQ ID NO: shown at 17.
SEQ ID NO:17:catgccgcccaccgccacatccacgccmnnmnnatgmnnmnngttcacctgcataatcggataaatcacttccgc。
Similarly, 3 short fragments were amplified by PCR, and the NNK-containing fragment of pNFRS-160H (31-162 aa) obtained by over-lap PCR was ligated to the vector CPEC, and then DH10B was electroporated into competent cells, cultured overnight with kanamycin, and the plasmids were extracted and stored at-20 ℃ for future use.
Example 6 screening of mutant libraries for pNFRS and pNFRS-160H
The synthase mutants obtained in examples 3 and 5, DH10B-REP were electrically transformed, recovered at 37 ℃ for 1 hour, plated on LB solid screening plate (hereinafter referred to as plate B) containing 10. Mu.g/mL tetracycline, 50. Mu.g/mL kanamycin, 50. Mu.g/mL chloramphenicol, 0.1% arabinose, 1mM OAY, and cultured, 48 hours to 72 hours until red colonies grew out, red colonies were simultaneously cultured on plate B and plate C (1 mM OAY on plate B was removed), colonies which did not grow on plate C, grown on plate B and had red fluorescence were streaked on plate B, red colonies were grown, and further screened for 2 to 3 rounds on plate B and plate C, and as a result, 1#,3#,8#,10#,12#,14# and 18# synthase mutants were screened from the pNFRS mutant library, 6#,13#,25#,30# and 35# synthase mutants were screened, and further, sequencing of the mutants was performed as shown in Table 2.
