Description

Method for improving growth and colonisation of alpha-proteobacteria phylum methyl nutrition bacteria in plant phyllosphere
Technical Field
The application relates to a method for effectively improving growth and colonization of plant phyllosphere growth of alpha-proteobacteria phylum methyl nutrition bacteria under the condition of an oligocarbon source, belonging to the fields of microbiological technology and modern agriculture.
Background
Methyl trophic bacteria (methyl trophs) are capable of utilizing methanol, a byproduct released by metabolism of pectin on plant phyllospheres, as a carbon source and energy source for growth, and are a phyllosphere dominant flora of many plants and crops (such as arabidopsis thaliana, wheat, soybean, corn, rice, alfalfa, tobacco, tomatoes, melons, peppers and cabbages). Methylotrophic bacteria (e.g. methylobacterium oryzae)Methylorubrum oryzae、Methylobacillus nodulationM. nodulans、Methylobacillus torvus (L.) RickenM. extorquensMethylobacillus radioduransM. radiotolerans、Methylobacillus floccusM. gregansAnd Methylobacillus spanishM. hispanicum) Can release auxin and mitogen to promote plant growth, can release extracellular enzyme and ferritin to convert phytic acid into soluble phosphorus, promote iron absorption or have biological nitrogen fixation capacity, and can synthesize secondary metabolic substances for inhibiting the growth of pathogenic microorganisms to play a role in biological control. Therefore, the methyl nutrition bacteria have the advantages of remarkably improving the growth and production capacity of crops in natural environment and adverse conditions such as drought, salt and alkali, diseases and the like, reducing the dependence on organic fertilizers and chemical pesticides, promoting the stable and high yield of crops, and are a plant probiotics with great development and application prospects. However, the plant phyllosphere environment is complex, and particularly compared with the plant rhizosphere, the phyllosphere faces the adversity of nutrient element scarcity. Research reports that the quantity of methanol released by crop leaves is obvious along with fluctuation of crop types, surrounding environment factors and the like, the quantity of methanol released per gram of dry weight leaves per hour is unequal from 0.5 mug to 35.0 mug, and the release rate is less than 1.0 mug g -1 h -1 And the concentration of other carbon sources is also trace.
Therefore, research on how to strengthen the growth capacity of the methylotrophic bacteria in the oligotrophic phyllosphere environment can obviously promote the phyllosphere colonization effect of the methylotrophic bacteria and improve the growth and production of crops.
Disclosure of Invention
The application aims to provide a method for improving the growth and colonization of alpha-proteobacteria phylum methyl nutrition bacteria in plant phyllospheres, so as to make up the defects of the prior art.
Phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase (Ribose-phosphate diphosphokinase), the first rate-limiting enzyme for de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides, pyrimidine nucleotides, histidine, tryptophan, and reducing power, catalyzes the phosphorylation of Ribose-5-phosphate (Ribose-5-phosphate) to phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (Phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate). The de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides, pyrimidine nucleotides, etc., consumes large amounts of ATP and precursor metabolites. The Phosphoketolase pathway (Phosphoketolase pathway) is capable of catalyzing the cleavage of Fructose-6-phosphate (fr-6-phosphate) to Erythrose-4-phosphate (Erythrose-4-phosphate) and Acetyl phosphate (Acetyl-phosphate) or Xylulose-5-phosphate (Xylulose-5-phosphate) to Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and Acetyl phosphate using Phosphoketolase (phosphokinase). The acetyl phosphate is then converted to the important central metabolite acetyl-coa. The phosphoketolase pathway does not produce carbon dioxide during the synthesis of acetyl-coa, and is carbon neutral. alpha-Proteus methylotrophic bacteria (e.g. M.species, M.torpedoM. extorquens) The Serine cycle (Serine cycle) coupled Ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway was used to assimilate methanol and carbon dioxide, i.e. to assimilate 2 molecules of methanol and 4 molecules of carbon dioxide to synthesize 1 molecule of acetyl-CoA and 2 molecules of glyoxylic acid, but blocking the phosphoketolase pathway did not affect normal cell growth, indicating that this pathway was efficient under standard laboratory culture conditions (i.e.: methanol concentration 120 mM) is an optional metabolic pathway.

The modeled complex structure was visually analyzed and processed using Pymol software. The results show that the D38 site of phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase directly binds to the substrate ATP via hydrogen bonds, and that when D38 is mutated to N38, the binding capacity to ATP is significantly weaker, mainly because the oxygen atom of the D38 side chain has a stronger electronegativity, the end of the N38 side chain is one oxygen atom by one nitrogen atom, wherein the oxygen atom is similar to D38, and the nitrogen atom and NH of the base in the ATP molecule 2 The groups are difficult to form hydrogen bonding (fig. 1 a).

At OD 600 When=1.7, cells were collected. 200 ml phosphate buffer (50 mM KH) 2 PO 4 5.5 mM imidazole, 150 mM NaCl,0.25 mM DTT,pH =7.9), cells were disrupted by a French Press cell disrupter, and the cell disruption solution was 1.6x10 4 g, centrifuging at 4 ℃ for 30 min, and purifying the recombinant wild type PRS and the mutant PRS respectively to the purity of more than 90% by utilizing nickel column affinity chromatography on the supernatant.
The enzyme activity of the wild type and mutant type of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase PRS is detected through three-step cascade reaction, and the specific process is as follows:
①、Ri5P + ATP + PRS = PRPP + AMP
②、AMP + ATP + MK = 2 ADP
③、2 ADP + 2 PEP + LDH = 2 pyr + 2 ATP
④、2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH +2H + =2 Lactate + 2 NAD + +2H
by enzyme-linked reaction, with the addition of 5mM 5-phosphoribosyl-phosphate (Ri 5P), 5mM ATP,1 mM NADH,2 mM phosphoenolpyruvate, with the addition of 10 ug phosphoribosyl-pyrophosphate kinase PRS wild-type and mutant pure enzyme proteins, 2U myokinase, 2U pyruvate kinase, 2U lactate dehydrogenase, in a formulated Buffer (50 mM KH 2 PO 4 Ph=7.9, 150 mM NaCl,0.25 mM DTT), at 30 ℃, phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase is added for 15 min and consumption of NADH is detected by uv spectrophotometer at 340 nm to characterize phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase activity.

According to the difference of the different carbon sources entering the center metabolism of the methylobacterium wrenchii, the growth capacities of mutant strains and wild strains are analyzed by taking methanol, succinic acid and oxalic acid as representative carbon sources. The growth phenotype is determined by first culturing the strain in an oligomethanolic carbon source (e.g., 5mM, 10 mM,15 mM). It was found that a mutant strain of M.sprain phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase (WT-prs EVO ) The delay time is two and a half hours shorter than that of the wild strain (WT) under the condition of low methanol concentration, and the maximum biomass is obviously higher than that of the wild strain, and the mutant strain (WT) of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase of the methylobacterium is torqued under the condition of 5mM, 10 mM and 15 mM methanolprs EVO ) Maximum biomass fraction of (2)26.7%, 13.2% and 7.0% higher than the wild strain (WT) (FIGS. 2 a-d), while the mutant strain of M.wraparound phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase (WT) was determined using the ab241033 methanol assay kitprs EVO ) The methanol consumption rate at 10 mM methanol was found to be 9.953.+ -. 0.133 mmol/g DCW/h, which was not significantly different from the wild-type (WT) methanol consumption rate (9.904.+ -. 0.111 mmol/g DCW/h) (FIG. 2 e), whereas the mutant strain of M.methylotrophicus phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase (WT)prs EVO ) The biomass yield was 0.299.+ -. 0.002 g DCW/g methanol, which was significantly higher than that of the wild-type (WT) strain (0.286.+ -. 0.002 g DCW/g methanol) (FIG. 2 f), demonstrating that phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase mutation significantly improved methanol utilization and growth capacity of M.torpedo under low concentration methanol carbon source. Mutant strain of M.torpedo phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase (WT-prs EVO ) The growth ability of the mutant strain (WT) was improved to some extent under both of the oligosaccharide concentration succinic acid and oxalic acid carbon source, and the growth ability was improved under the culture conditions of 1 mM and 3 mM succinic acidprs EVO ) The lag phase of (a) was shortened by 10.7% and 13.3% respectively, compared to the wild strain (WT) (fig. 3a, b). Under conditions of 1 mM and 5mM oxalic acid, the mutant strain (WT-prs EVO ) The maximum biomass was increased by 33.3% and 13.2%, respectively (fig. 3c, d).

In the embodiment, the CRISPRi interference technology is utilized to reduce the transcription level of the mode strain, namely the methylobacterium sprain and the methylobacterium oryzae phosphoribosyl pyrophosphatase gene of the alpha-proteobacteria, so that the growth capacity of the two strains under the condition of low concentration methanol is improved. Three different nucleotide sites of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase gene are respectively targeted. The obtained interference strains were cultured under the condition of low concentration methanol (5 mM,10 mM,15 mM) respectively, and the growth phenotype was determined. The interfering strain (WT 12) of the methylobacterium torvum targeting nucleotide 275 of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase gene has significant growth advantages under the condition of low concentration methanol compared with the control strain (WT 04), the delay period is shortened by three hours compared with the control strain, and the maximum biomass is respectively improved by 12.3 percent, 8.4 percent and 7.7 percent under the condition of 5mM, 10 mM and 15 mM methanol (figures 4 a-c); the rice methylobacterium targeted with different nucleotide sites of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase gene has obvious growth advantages compared with a control strain under the condition of low concentration methanol, wherein the delay period of the targeted 274 nucleotide site interfering strain (OR 03) is shortened by more than six hours under the condition of 5mM and 10 mM methanol compared with that of the control strain (OR 01), and the maximum biomass is improved (figures 4d and e), which shows that the proper reduction of the transcription level of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase gene under the condition of low concentration methanol can effectively improve the growth capacity of alpha-proteobacteria such as methylobacterium torvum, rice methylobacterium and the like.
By using a promoter replacement technology, the mode strain of the alpha-proteobacteria phylum methyl nutrition bacteria is subjected to demethylabacterium writhing by a homologous double exchange methodprsReplacement of the gene promoter with weaker strength in methylobacterium torvumgnd(META1_5238) gene promoter such thatprsThe transcription level is reduced to about 30% of the original transcription level.

The transcription level of related genes such as serine circulation pathway, ethylmalonyl-coa pathway, phosphoketolase pathway, formate oxidation pathway, etc. was analyzed by RT-qPCR. By determining the mutation of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase gene of M.torpedoThe Ct values of the target gene and the reference gene in the strain are calculated by using a delta Ct or 2-delta Ct method, and the relative expression amount change between the mutant strain and the wild strain of the phosphoribose pyrophosphatase gene of the methylobacterium wrenchii is compared. Mutation of phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase reduces metabolic flux of nucleotide de novo synthesis and up regulates phosphoketolase pathway related genexfp、pta、ackAndacsthe transcription level (1.9-3.3 times) of the enzyme, thereby improving the metabolic flux of converting 6-phosphate-glucose and 5-phosphate-ribulose into acetyl coenzyme A. Meanwhile, serine circulation related genes in mutant strains of phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase genes (such as:sga、eno、gck、ppcetc.) the transcription level is up-regulated by 1.5-5.5 times; ethylmalonyl-coa pathway related genes (e.g.:phaA、phaB、croR、ccr、ecm、pccAB、mcmABetc.) are up-regulated by 3.1 to 7.0 times; the genes related to the reverse glycolysis pathway and the formate transformation pathway are up-regulated at 1.5-4.2 times, which shows that the strain mutated by the phosphoribose pyrophosphatase gene of the methylobacterium torvus enhances the central metabolism by up-regulating the phosphoketolase pathway, so that methanol and fixed carbon dioxide are more efficiently assimilated under a low-concentration methanol carbon source, and the growth capacity is improved. Furthermore, it was found that genes involved in formate oxidation reaction in mutant strains of the phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate kinase gene of M.torpedofdhBy more than 30%, thereby reducing carbon dioxide release, allowing more carbon source assimilation into central metabolism (fig. 6).
