- EXAMPLE 4 CLONING OF NITRILE HYDRATASE FROM Comamonas testosteroni NI 1.
- nucleotide sequence of this first probe is designated by SEQ ID No: 7: and the corresponding amino acid sequence by SEQ ID No: 8:.
- Comamonas dictated a choice for the third position of the codon in the case of alanines and in the case of lysine.
- the probe (seq. 2264) is a 23 sea 144 times degenerate:
- nucleotide sequence of this second ⁇ probe is designated by SEQ ID No: 9: and the corresponding amino acid sequence by SEQ ID No: 10:.
- the strategy followed consisted, first of all, in verifying the specificity of the two probes and in determining the nature of the genomic DNA fragments to be cloned.
- genomic DNA of Comamonas testosteroni NI 1 was digested with several restriction enzymes corresponding to sites which can be used for cloning. After electrophoresis on agarose gel and transfer to a nylon membrane, the various digestions were hybridized to the probes. The results show that the two probes have sufficient specificity under the hybridization conditions used (5x SSC, 5x Denhardt, 0.1% SDS, 50 mM NaPO 4 pH 6.5, 250 ⁇ g / ml ssDNA; hybridization temperature 50 ° C.
- the hybridization fingerprints show, in particular, the existence of a fragment single BglII of approximately 4 kb.
- the 2.5 to 4.5 kb fragments of a BglII digestion of genomic DNA were purified by preparative electrophoresis on agarose and electroelution, then ligated to the plasmid pUC19, itself digested with BamHI.
- 800 white clones on LB amp X-gal were individually subcultured, transferred to a nylon membrane, then analyzed by hybridization with the seq 2264 probe under the same stringency conditions as during the hybridization of the " Southern blot ". A clone was thus identified as specifically hybridizing with the probe.
- This clone was found to contain a plasmid (pXL2120), having inserted a fragment of approximately 4.2 kb, also hybridizing with the seq probe. 2273.
- This plasmid was analyzed in more detail (restriction mapping, partial sequencing using the probe seq. 2264 as primer and "Southern blot"). It has thus been possible to show that the 5 ′ part of the gene coding for the ⁇ subunit, which hybridizes with the seq probe. 2264, is located on a fragment of Sphl-Kpnl of around 280 bp, oriented in the direction SphI towards Kpnl.
- Fig. 7 shows a restriction map of this plasmid.
- EXAMPLE 5 SEQUENCE DTJN FRAGMENT OF 1713 PB CONIENAN ⁇ LES GENES
- the average GC% of the sequence obtained is 56.6%, which is close to the GC% of 61.5% described in other strains of Comamonas (TAMAOKA et al., Int. J; Syst. Bacteriol., 1987, 37, 52-59).
- An analysis of the sequence obtained made it possible to characterize a first open phase of 645 bp potentially translated into a protein of 215 amino acids.
- the NH 2 terminal sequence of the a subunit, used to synthesize the seq probe. 2273, is contained in this protein and makes it possible to locate the initiation codon of the gene coding for the ⁇ subunit, called nthA in the rest of the description.
- This gene contains 621 bp, code for a protein of 207 residues corresponding to a molecular weight of 22,967 Da.
- a second open phase of 621 bp is potentially translated into a polypeptide of 207 residues.
- This polypeptide present in position NH 2 terminal, the terminal NH 2 sequence used to synthesize the probe seq. 2264, which makes it possible to identify the second phase open to the structural gene for the ⁇ subunit of the nitrile hydratase, called nthB in the rest of the description.
- This protein has a theoretical molecular weight of 22,653 Da;
- EXAMPLE 6 EXPRESSION OF N ⁇ RILE HYDRATASE FROM Comamonas testosteroni NI 1 IN E. coli.
- the 779 bp Ncol / BglI fragment (containing the 282 bp located upstream of the nthA gene and the first 496 bp of nthA) and the 789 bp BglI / AhalI fragment (containing the 3 ′ part of nthA and all the nthB gene), fragments isolated from pXL2120, were cloned between the Ncol and CJal sites of pMTL22 (CHAMBERS et al., 1988, Gene, 68, 139-149).
- pXL2160 therefore carries a gene conferring resistance to ampicillin and the nthA and nthB genes under the control of their own ribosome binding sites, the two genes being transcribed from the promoter of the lactose operon of E. coli.
- pXL2160 carries, moreover, in the cloning multisite, downstream of the fragment of Comamonas testosteroni, a unique Xhol site.
- an Ndel restriction site was created on the initiation codon of nthA and the 180 bp Ndel / HindIII fragment containing the 5 ′ part of the nthA gene was amplified by the PCR technique. This fragment was ligated to the HindIII / XhoI fragment of pXL2160 between the NdeI / Xhol sites of pMTL22, to result in the plasmid pXL2203.
- the final plasmid pXL2205 therefore carries a gene conferring resistance to ampicillin, the nthA gene under control of the RBSCII ribosome binding site and the nthB gene under control of its own ribosome binding site, the two genes being transcribed from from the promoter Ptrp.
- the expression of the nitrile hydratase was visualized in the E. coli TG 1 strain containing the plasmids pXL2160 and pXL2205.
- the strain TG l / pXL2160, as well as the control strain TGl / pUC19, were cultivated for 16 h in LB medium at 37 ° C. (MILLER, JH 1972, Experiments in Molecular Genetics, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, NY) containing 100 ⁇ g / ml ampicillin, then diluted 100 times in the same medium and at the same temperature. When the cultures reached an OD 610 of between 0.5 and 1, IPTG, at the final concentration of 1 mM, was added. After 2 h of culture, the bacteria were collected.
- TG1 / pXL2205 strain as well as the control strain TG1 containing the vector pUC19, were cultivated for 16 h in M9 glucose medium at 30 ° C. (MILLER, JH 1972, Experiments in Molecular Genetics, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, NY), containing 100 ⁇ g / ml of ampicillin and 100 ⁇ g / ml of tryptophan, these cultures were diluted 100 times in the same medium in the absence of tryptophan and cultured for 6 h at the same temperature.
- MILLER JH 1972, Experiments in Molecular Genetics, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, NY
- Each lane corresponds to an amount of protein equivalent to 60 ⁇ l of culture at an OD of 3 to 610 nm.
- Lane G contains the following molecular weight markers: 97.5, 66.2, 45,
- Plasmid PXL2222 groups together two fragments extracted from pXL2160, the 934 bp Nrul / Kpnl fragment containing the nthA gene and the 5 'part of nthB cloned in front of the 370 bp Kpnl / Stul fragment containing the 3' part of nthB.
