Description
Technical Field
The application relates to an auxiliary P-plasmid for transposase directed evolution, a system for transposase directed evolution and Tn5 transposase mutants, and belongs to the technical field of biology.
Background
Transposases are widely found in nature and are considered to be one of the important driving forces for genome rearrangement and evolution. Tn5 transposase is a common transposase, is a core protein in one-step enzymatic library construction technology, forms a multi-component complex of Tn5 protein and a linker sequence through in vitro assembly, and adds specific linkers to both ends of each DNA fragment while breaking genomic DNA depending on the "cut and paste" activity of the transposase. The linker sequence is typically composed of three parts, including primer binding sequences for PCR amplification and sequencing of DNA fragments, barcode tags for sample tracing, and ME sequences of 19bp in length specifically recognized by Tn5 transposase (AGATGTGTATAAGAGACAG). The length of the interrupted genome fragment is optimally about 300bp under the restriction of single read length of second-generation sequencing. However, due to the influence of factors such as enzyme activity, an assembly system and the like, the genome cannot be completely broken, and the existence of a large number of overlong fragments seriously damages the quality of enzymatic library construction. Meanwhile, the wild Tn5 transposase protein has certain preference, so that the uniformity and coverage of library construction cannot meet the requirements.
On the other hand, with the rise and wide application of CUT & Tag technology, people put higher demands on the "CUT and paste" activity of Tn5 transposase. In the CUT & Tag technology, the DNA sequence interacting with the target protein is directed to be CUT by Tn5 transposase and a linker is added to achieve directed banking by utilizing the specific recognition and binding of the antibody to the target protein (antigen) and the binding of the non-specific antibody binding protein to the antibody constant region. The binding site of the target protein on the genome can then be identified by sequencing. Compared with the traditional Chip-Seq and other technologies, the method has the advantages that the input amount of the DNA of CUT & Tag is lower, the experimental period is shorter, the specific affinity of antigen and antibody and the specific amplification of linker PCR are added, the signal to noise ratio of sequencing is higher, and the method can be better used for researching the fields of epigenetic science, interactions among macromolecules and the like.
Therefore, it is important to develop an efficient screening method for enzyme activity to obtain transposases with higher enzyme activities.

The transposase may be a Tn5 transposase, mu transposase, tn10 transposase, or an engineered transposase. The evolution method provided by the application is applicable to all transposase types, and the corresponding recognition region sequence needs to be replaced, which is predictable by a person skilled in the art and belongs to the inventive concept of the application.
The application provides a method for directed evolution of transposase, which utilizes the competition relationship of PIII and PIII neg proteins (the latter are proteins which prevent phage growth, and amino acid sequences refer to Carlson JC et al, negative selection and stringency modulation in phage-assisted continuous resolution. Nat Chem biol.2014 Mar;10 (3): 216-22), and associates the activity of transposase with the growth of progeny phage by adding a transposase specific recognition sequence at the side of a PIII neg gene promoter. When the high-activity transposase mutant is expressed in the cell, the expression quantity of the PIII neg protein is reduced due to the deletion of the promoter, and the abundance of the PIII protein in the cell exceeds that of the PIII neg, so that the normal reproduction of the progeny phage is realized. After a certain number of generations of screening, the screening pressure can be increased by decreasing the anhydrotetracycline concentration and increasing the IPTG concentration. At this time, PIII expression is down-regulated, PIII neg expression is up-regulated, and the progeny phage needs a higher activity transposase to ensure the reproduction of the progeny phage, so that the higher activity transposase is screened out. The application also constructs phage library expressing different transposase mutants by means of error-prone PCR method to realize control of amino acid mutation frequency and greatly shorten passage period. By utilizing the directed evolution method, a novel mutant of Tn5 transposase is obtained, and compared with the wild Tn5 transposase, the nuclease activity of the mutant is obviously improved.
