Description

ScEgt1 gene derived from schizophyllum commune and application of coded protein thereof in synthesis of ergothioneine
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of synthetic biology, in particular to an ScEgt1 gene derived from schizophyllum commune and application of a coded protein thereof in ergothioneine synthesis.
Background
Ergothioneine (EGT) is a natural sulfur-containing amino acid found in fungi and has strong antioxidant capacity. The EGT has good water solubility and stability, and has wide application prospect in the fields of foods, beverages, dietary supplements, cosmetics and the like.
Currently, the main production modes of ergothioneine are natural biological extraction, chemical synthesis and biological synthesis. The extraction method has low extraction content and more impurities, and limits the industrialized application of ergothioneine; the chemical method has the disadvantages of expensive raw materials, difficult guarantee of safety and inapplicability to industrialized mass production. In recent years, the biosynthesis of ergothioneine has received extensive attention due to its low cost, readily available raw materials, environmental friendliness and other advantages. Biological synthesis of ergothioneine is primarily by bacterial and fungal pathways: bacterial pathways were originally discovered in the prokaryote mycobacterium smegmatis, with histidine, cysteine, glutamic acid, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) as key intermediate metabolites, requiring five steps of reactions, involving a total of five key genes; the fungal pathway (FIG. 1) was originally found in Neurospora crassa and uses histidine, cysteine and SAM as key intermediate metabolites, requiring three steps of reaction, and two key genes in total. In bacterial pathways, the synthesis of ergothioneine requires gamma-glutaminocysteine (γgc) as a substrate, and forms a competitive relationship with the synthesis of glutathione, another important regulatory metabolite in cells, affecting the rate of ergothioneine production. Compared with the bacterial approach, the fungal approach avoids the competitive relationship between ergothioneine and glutathione, and only two key genes need to be introduced when the engineering strain is constructed, so that the subsequent expression regulation and control are relatively simple. Furthermore, the natural accumulation of ergothioneine in the fungus, which is a fungal synthetic pathway, is relatively high in many natural synthetic hosts. Therefore, the current engineering strain research mainly surrounds a fungus approach with simpler approach, and the identification, screening and combination optimization work of key enzyme genes is carried out. Unfortunately, most of the key enzyme candidate genes selected for these efforts were the earliest reported genes responsible for identifying the Egt1 and Egt2 genes in MAICON, whereas the natural high-yielding host-derived candidate genes and their cognate genes were relatively few. The relative lack of key biosynthetic elements is one of the limiting factors in current heterologous biosynthesis of ergothioneine. Therefore, the ergothioneine synthetase from different species is screened and excavated, which is helpful to further enrich the ergothioneine biosynthesis elements and lays a foundation for the subsequent construction of high-yield engineering strains through metabolic engineering and synthetic biology means.

After the cells were collected by centrifugation (4 ℃ C., 6000r/min, 20 min), the cells were resuspended in M9 medium and collected by centrifugation again. And adding 100mL of whole cell catalytic culture medium into the finally collected thalli to re-suspend to obtain a whole cell suspension, carrying out a whole cell preparation reaction (25 ℃, 220 r/min) of ergothioneine, taking 1mL of reaction solution for corresponding time, and preserving at-20 ℃.
Treatment of ergothioneine reaction solution: heating 1mL of reaction solution in a metal bath at 90 ℃ and 700r/min for 30min, centrifuging at 4 ℃ for 15min, and taking a supernatant, and filtering with a 0.22 mu m filter membrane for later use.
The experiment was also carried out with an empty control group into which pET28a (+) was introduced into E.coli BL21 (DE 3).
Example 4 ergothioneine product detection
Ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) detection conditions: UPLC-MS analysis was performed using an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography system (Nexera 30A, shimadzu, japan, kyoto) and a mass spectrometer (triple TOF 6600, applied biosystems SCHEX, USA). UPLC condition: metabolites were identified using ZIC-HILIC columns (100X 2.1mm,3.5 μm, merck, germany). Then respectively taking 10mM ammonium acetate and 100% acetonitrile as mobile phases A and B, wherein the flow rate is 0.2mL/min, and the gradient is as follows: 0-3min,90% B;3-6min,90-60% B;6-25min,60-50% B;25-30min,50% B;30-30.5min,50-90% B;30.5-38min,90% B (% represents volume percent). MS conditions: electrospray ionization source negative ion mode, ion voltage 4500V, declustering voltage 80V, ion source temperature 550 ℃, air curtain pressure 35psi, atomization pressure 55psi, heater pressure 55psi. Each scan cycle includes 1 TOF-MS full scan and 15 MS/MS scans. The mass range of TOF-MS is m/z63-1000, and the mass range of MS/MS is m/z 30-1000.
100 μl of the treated ergothioneine reaction supernatant of example 3 was mixed with 100% acetonitrile by equal volume, centrifuged at 4deg.C for 30min, and the supernatant was subjected to subsequent ultra-high liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry detection.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, in the result of whole cell catalysis of the strain containing the recombinant expression vector pET-ScEgt1-PoEgt2 for 9 hours (FIG. 2 (C), rt 13.807 min), an MRM ion pair having substantially the same retention time as that of the ergothioneine standard (FIG. 2 (A), rt 13.833 min) was detected, and the content of ergothioneine was 62.73mg/L; whereas no apparent ergothioneine MRM ion pair was detected in the whole cell catalyzed 9h of the strain containing only control plasmid pET28a (+) (FIG. 2 (B)). This suggests that the catalytic synthesis of ergothioneine by E.coli can be achieved by introducing the ScEgt1 gene and the PoEgt2 gene.
