Definitions

  • Synthetic organophosphorous neurotoxins are used extensively as agricultural and domestic pesticides, including insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides.
  • Naturally occurring bacterial isolates capable of metabolizing this class of compounds have received considerable attention since they provide the possibility of both environmental and in situ detoxification.
  • Pseudomonas putida MG, Pseudomonas diminuta, and Fla ⁇ obacterium, s.pp. have been shown to possess the ability to degrade an extremely broad spectrum of organophosphorous phosphotriesters as well as thiol esters.
  • Organophosphorous hydrolase is a broad spectrum OP hydrolase that is capable of detoxifying organophosphorous neurotoxins by creating various phosphoryl bonds (P-O, P-F, P-CN, and P-S) between the phosphorous center and varying electrophilic leaving groups.
  • This enzyme is often identified by more limited descriptors such as phosphotriesterase, DFPase, parathion hydrolase, parathion aryl esterase, or paraoxonase as well as being called a somanase or sarinase.
  • the hydrolytic reaction rates with several phosphotriesterases appears to be limited by diffusion to the active center of the enzyme. (Caldwell et al., "Limits of Diffusion in the Hydrolysis of Substrates of the Phosphotriesterase From Pseudomonas diminuta 1 ', Biochemistry 30, 7438-7444 (1991)).
  • This broad spectrum hydrolase is the only enzyme which has been shown to be able to hydrolyze the P-S bond of various phosphorothioate pesticides.
  • the toxicity of hydrolyzed products has been shown to be significantly reduced as indicated by the loss of inhibition of acetyl cholinesterase activity and by decreased neurotoxic response in animals. (Kolakowski, et al., Biocatolisis and Biotransformation, Vol. 15, 297-312 (1997)).
  • OP-thioate insecticides acephate, azinophos-ethyl, demeton-S, malathion and phosalone have been shown to be hydrolyzed by OPH.
  • the hydrolysis of these pesticides has a first order dependency on the amount of enzyme used and the reaction time.
  • the enzyme hydrolyzed acephate, azinophos-ethyl, demeton-S and phosalone at relatively fast velocities with reaction rates which are thousands of times greater than that which occurs during strong alkaline hydrolysis.
  • the enzyme possessed poor capability for a malathion hydrolysis, although still significantly better than non-enzymatic hydrolysis under similar conditions.
  • the thioesters (P-S bond esters) hydrolysis was much slower in general. (See Kolakowski, et al., Biokatolisis and Biotransformation, Vol., 297-312 (1997)).
  • the present invention relates to the plant expression of OPH as well as the creation of a synthetic OPH nucleotide sequence which can be expressed in plant systems or yeast systems utilizing appropriate leader sequences whereby the expression level of OPH is greatly increased over that of E. coli or baculovirus systems.
  • the present invention relates not only to the creation of the optimized OPH coding sequence, but also to transformation, expression of the same, and useof the recombinant protein in the hydrolysis of a variety of organophosphorous neurotoxins such as those in many widely used agricultural and domestic pesticides.
  • the present invention is directed to a nucleotide sequence which encodes OPH and its expression in plant systems.
  • the present invention is directed to a nucleotide sequence which encodes an optimized OPH gene preferrably with a host specific leader sequence.
  • the present invention is further directed to expression constructs, vectors and transgenic plants which contain these OPH nucleotide sequences.
  • the invention is directed to the expression of OPH in plant or yeast cells.
  • the present invention is also directed to methods for using transgenic plants which express this OPH to detoxify environments which are contaminated with insecticides and other neurotoxins. More specifically, the present invention is directed to transgenic plants which are capable of expressing OPH at levels greater than that of the typical 10-15 mg/1 of E. coli or baculovirus.
  • OPH nucleotide sequence of the present invention can be utilized in conjunction with a wide variety of host organisms including plants, bacteria and yeast. It should also be understood that trivial modifications to the OPH gene of this invention are encompassed in this invention. Further, while it is to be understood that the expression of the OPH of the present invention can be utilized either as present in the transgenic plants or harvested therefrom to hydrolyze neurotoxins such as pesticides, this expressed OPH gene can further be utilized to hydrolyze other chemical agents or compounds containing P-O, P-S, P-CN, and P-S bonds.

Appropriate Leader Sequence
  • an appropriate leader sequence or subcellular localization signal is preferably integrated onto the OPH encoding nucleotide sequence gene.
  • a plant leader sequence will ensure high expression in plants while a yeast leader sequence will express high levels of OPH expression in yeast.
  • the OPH gene containing the appropriate leader can be cloned into the standard expression cassette for that host to ensure high expression in that organism.
  • a 5' fragment can be assembled to contain a plant leader sequence to ensure high expression in plants.
  • the OPH gene containing the plant leader may be cloned into a standard plant upon expression cassette to ensure high expression in plants. Transformation techniques
  • a nucleotide acid sequence of interest is isolated or synthesized, it is included into an expression cassette which typically comprises a transcription unit of a promoter operably linked to the nucleotide sequence which is functional in a plant cell and a termination or polyadenylation signal.
  • This expression cassette typically forms part of a plant transformation vector.
  • This plant transformation vector will also contain the appropriate regulatory sequences in addition to the gene of interest.
  • the vector DNA facilitates manipulation of the gene in the host cell, such as E. coli. or yeast, prior to plant transformation.

It has been shown to be highly active in many plant organs and during many stages of development when integrated into the genome of transgenic plants including tobacco and petunia, and has been shown to confer expression in protoplasts of both dicots and monocots.
  • Organ-specific promoters are also well known.
  • the E8 promoter is only transcriptionally activated during tomato fruit ripening, and can be used to target gene expression in ripening tomato fruit (Deikman and Fischer, EMBO J. (1988) 7:3315; Giovannoni et al., The Plant Cell (1989) 1:53).

Biol., April 1992, 18(6) p.
  • phaseolin promoter described in United States Patent 5,504,200 to Mycogen which discloses the gene sequence and regulatory regions for phaseolin, a protein isolated from P. vulgaris which is expressed only while the seed is developing within the pod, and only in tissues involved in seed generation.
  • organ-specific promoters appropriate for a desired target organ can be isolated using known procedures. These control sequences are generally associated with genes uniquely expressed in the desired organ. In a typical higher plant, each organ has thousands of mRNAs that are absent from other organ systems (reviewed in Goldberg, Phil, Trans. R. Soc. London (1986) B314-343. mRNAs are first isolated to obtain suitable probes for retrieval of the appropriate genomic sequence which retains the presence of the natively associated control sequences. An example of the use of techniques to obtain the cDNA associated with mRNA specific to avocado fruit is found in Christoffersen et al., Plant Molecular Biology (1984) 3:385. Briefly, mRNA was isolated from ripening avocado fruit and used to make a cDNA library.
  • Clones in the library were identified that hybridized with labeled RNA isolated from ripening avocado fruit, but that did not hybridize with labeled RNAs isolated from unripe avocado fruit. Many of these clones represent mRNAs encoded by genes that are transcriptionally activated at the onset of avocado fruit ripening.
  • the promoter used in the method of the invention may also be an inducible promoter.
  • An inducible promoter is a promoter that is capable of directly or indirectly activating transcription of a DNA sequence in response to an inducer. In the absence of an inducer, the DNA sequence will not be transcribed.
  • the protein factor that binds specifically to an inducible promoter to activate transcription is present in an inactive form which is then directly or indirectly converted to the active form by the inducer.
  • the inducer may be a chemical agent such as a protein, metabolite (sugar, alcohol etc.), a growth regulator, herbicide, or a phenolic compound or a physiological stress imposed directly by heat, salt, toxic elements etc.
  • a plant cell containing an inducible promoter may be exposed to an inducer by externally applying the inducer to the cell such as by spraying, watering, heating, or similar methods.
  • inducible promoters include the inducible 70 kd heat shock promoter of D. melanogaster (Freeling, M., Bennet, D.C., Maize ADN 1, Ann. Rev, of Genetics, 19:297-323) and the alcohol dehydrogenase promoter which is induced by ethanol (Nagao, R.T., et al., Miflin, B.J., Ed. Oxford Surveys of Plant Molecular and Cell Biology, Vol. 3, p.
  • the inducible promoter may be in an induced state throughout seed formation or at least for a period which corresponds to the transcription of the DNA sequence of the recombinant DNA molecule(s).

  • the preferred promoters may be used in conjunction with naturally occurring flanking coding or transcribed sequences of the seed specific Polycomb genes or with any other coding or transcribed sequence that is critical to Polycomb formation and/or function.
  • intron sequences may also be desirable to include some intron sequences in the promoter constructs since the inclusion of intron sequences in the coding region may result in enhanced expression and specificity.
  • regions of one promoter may be joined to regions from a different promoter in order to obtain the desired promoter activity resulting in a chimeric promoter.
  • Synthetic promoters which regulate gene expression may also be used.
  • the expression system may be further optimized by employing supplemental elements such as transcription terminators and/or enhancer elements.
  • an expression cassette or construct should also contain a transcription termination region downstream of the structural gene to provide for efficient termination.
  • the termination region or polyadenylation signal may be obtained from the same gene as the promoter sequence or may be obtained from different genes.
  • Polyadenylation sequences include, but are not limited to the Agrobacterium octopine synthase signal (Gielen et al., EMBO J. (1984) 3:835-846) or the nopaline synthase signal (Depicker et al., Mol. and Appl. Genet. (1982) 1:561-573). MARKER GENES
  • Recombinant DNA molecules containing any of the DNA sequences and promoters described herein may additionally contain selection marker genes which encode a selection gene product which confer on a plant cell resistance to a chemical agent or physiological stress, or confers a distinguishable phenotypic characteristic to the cells such that plant cells transformed with the recombinant DNA molecule may be easily selected using a selective agent.
  • selection marker gene is neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT II) which confers resistance to kanamycin and the antibiotic G-418.
  • Cells transformed with this selection marker gene may be selected for by assaying for the presence in vitro of phosphorylation of kanamycin using techniques described in the literature or by testing for the presence of the mRNA coding for the NPT II gene by Northern blot analysis in RNA from the tissue of the transformed plant. Polymerase chain reactions are also used to identify the presence of a transgene or expression using reverse transcriptase PCR amplification to monitor expression and PCR on genomic DNA. Other commonly used selection markers include the ampicillin resistance gene, the tetracycline resistance and the hygromycin resistance gene. Transformed plant cells thus selected can be induced to differentiate into plant structures which will eventually yield whole plants. It is to be understood that a selection marker gene may also be native to a plant. TRANSFORMATION
  • Agrobacterium tumefaciens is the etiologic agent of crown gall.
  • the wild type form of Agrobacterium tumefaciens carries the Ti (tumor-inducing) plasmid that directs the production of tumorigenic crown gall growth on the host plants.
  • the crown gall is produced following the transfer of the tumor inducing T-DNA region from the Ti plasmid into the genome of an infected plant. This DNA fragment encodes genes for auxin and cytokinin biosynthesis, and it is these hormones in high concentration that promote growth of undifferentiated cells in the crown gall.
  • Transfer of the T-DNA to the plant genome requires that the Ti plasmid-encoded virulence genes as well as the T- DNA borders, a set of direct DNA repeats that delineate the region to be transferred.
  • the tumor inducing genes can be removed from Ti plasmid vectors, disarming the pathogenic nature of the system, without affecting the transfer of DNA fragments between the T-DNA borders. Therefore, the tumor inducing genes are generally replaced with a gene encoding resistance to kanamycin, or some other gene, to allow for selection of transformants, and a gene encoding the desired trait.
  • the Agrobacterium containing the engineered plasmid is co-cultivated with cultured plant cells or wounded tissue. The de- differentiated plant cells are then propagated on selective media, and a transgenic plant is subsequently regenerated from the transformed cells by altering the levels of auxin and cytokinin in the growth medium.
  • Agrobacterium mediated transformation often employ binary vector systems, which divide the Ti plasmid into two components, a shuttle vector and a helper plasmid.
  • the helper plasmid which is permanently placed in the Agrobacterium host, carries the virulence genes.
  • a much smaller shuttle vector contains T-DNA borders, a broad-host range bacterial origin of replication, antibiotic resistance markers, and a multiple cloning site for incorporation of the foreign gene.
  • a similar strategy employs cointegrating Ti plasmid vectors, whereby an intermediate plasmid containing antibiotic resistance, the gene to be transferred and one T-DNA border are used to transform A.
  • tumefaciens containing a disarmed Ti plasmid possessing the virulence genes and one T- DNA border.
  • the two plasmids homologously recombined in vivo at the T- DNA borders placing the antibiotic resistance gene and the gene of interest between two T-DNA borders, one from each plasmid.
  • the genes are then transferred into plant tissue upon co-cultivation.
  • the Agrobacterium system has been well studied and has further been developed into a system which permits routine transformation of a variety of plant tissues.
  • Some of the tissues transformed utilizing Agrobacterium include tobacco, Barton, K.A. et al., Cell, 32:1033 (1983); tomato, Fillatti, J. et al., Bio/Technology, 5:726 (1987); sunflower, Everett, N. P. et al., Bio/Technology, 5:1201 (1987); cotton, Umbeck, P.
  • Agrobacterium rhizogenes Another vector for biological plant transformation is Agrobacterium rhizogenes.
  • A. rhizogenes which incite root formation in many dicotyledonous plant species, carries the Ri (root-inducing) plasmid which functions in a manner analogous to the Ti plasmid of A. tumefaciens. Transformation using A. rhizogenes has also been successfully utilized to transform plants, for example, alfalfa, Sukhapinda, K. et al, Plant Mol. Biol.. 8:209 (1987); Solanum nigrum L., Wei Z-H. et al., Plant Cell Reports 5:93 (1986); and, poplar, Pythoud, et al., supra.
  • Electroporation is another effective means of introducing foreign DNA into plant cells.
  • This technique involves transferring naked DNA into cells utilizing electrophoretic means. Since any DNA fragment can be delivered to the cell, this technique has the advantage of allowing assimilation of a gene without having to clone the DNA into a host vector such as A. tumefaciens.
  • DNA viruses have been used as gene vectors. Both Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV) and the closely related Figwort Virus are circular duplex DNA viruses which replicate via transcription of a full-length (35S) genomic RNA intermediate. A cauliflower mosaic virus carrying a modified bacterial methotrexate-resistance gene was used to infect a plant, whereby the foreign gene was systemically spread in the plant.

  • Exogenous DNA can be introduced into cells or protoplasts by microinjection.
  • Microinjection is a method where a solution of plasmid DNA is injected directly into the cell with a finely pulled glass needle. Alfalfa protoplasts have been transformed utilizing this method with a variety of plasmids. Reich, T.J. et al., Bio/Technology 4:1001 (1986).

  • Plant regeneration from protoplasts is a particularly useful technique. See Evans, D.A. et al., Handbook of Plant Cell Culture. 1:124 (1983). When a plant species can be regenerated from protoplasts, then direct gene transfer procedures can be utilized, and transformation is not dependent on the use of A. tumefaciens. Regeneration of plants from protoplasts has been demonstrated for rice, Abdullah, R. et al., Bio/Technology 4:1087 (1987); tobacco, Potrykus, I. et al., supra; canola, Kansha, et al., Plant Cell Reports 5:101 (1986); potato, Tavazza, R. et al., Plant Cell Reports 5:243 (1986); eggplant, Sihackaki, D.
  • the organohydrolase may be harvested from the plant or the plant itself may be used to detoxify sites contaminated by organophosphorous neurotoxins, from insecticides, pesticides or even for use in chemical warfare detoxification.
  • the expression cassette After the expression cassette is stably incorporated into regenerated transgenic plants, it can be transferred to other plants by sexual crossing. Any of a number of standard breeding techniques can be used, depending upon the species to be crossed.
  • plants may be self-fertilized, leading to the production of a mixture of seed that consists of, in the simplest case, three types, homozygous (25%), heterozygous (50%) and null (25%) for the inserted gene.
  • homozygous 25%
  • heterozygous 50%)
  • null 25%)
  • Transgenic homozygous parental lines make possible the production of hybrid plants and seeds which will contain a modified protein component.
  • Transgenic homozygous parental lines are maintained with each parent containing either the first or second recombinant DNA sequence operably linked to a promoter. Also incorporated in this scheme are the advantages of growing a hybrid crop, including the combining of more valuable traits and hybrid vigor.
  • an OPH gene was created. This was accomplished by analyzing the amino acid sequence of OPH using the program BACKTRANSLATE (Wisconsin package version 9.1, Genetics Computer Group(GCG), Madison, Wisconsin) into a DNA coding sequence using a maize codon preference table tabulated from highly expressed maize genes (http://www.gcg.com/techsupport/data/maize-high.cod). The optimized sequence was then searched for putative deleterious sequences compiled in Table 1 using the GCG program FINDPATTERNS.
  • Alternative codons were chosen to eliminate the deleterious mRNA signals in the DNA coding sequence and to add convenient restriction enzyme sites to facilitate downstream cloning. Codons that reflected less than 20% usage were avoided.
  • the optimized DNA coding sequence was divided into a convenient cloning length of less than 350 base pairs.
  • Each of the fragments was divided up into oligonucleotides of approximately 50 bases in length with 10 base overhangs. Oligonucleotides corresponding to both the sense and antisense strand were synthesized using a commercial supplier and all oligonucleotides were 5' phosphorylated. The oligonucleotides were diluted to 100 pmol/ ⁇ l and 1 nanomole of each oligonucleotide in each respective fragment was added to a microfuge tube and brought to 100 ⁇ l using water. The oligonucleotides were annealed by heating to 95°C and allowed to cool slowly to 4°C over a period of two hours.
  • oligonucleotides were ligated at 16°C for one hour. Following the ligation, 1 ⁇ l and successive 1/10 dilutions were subjected to PCR using primers specific to the 5' and 3' ends of each fragment. The PCR reactions were then purified by polyacrylimide gel electrophoresis. The band corresponding to the correct size of each fragment was excised, and the DNA eluted from the gel slice using proceduresknown to those of skill in the art.
  • the eluted DNA was cloned into the pCR2.1-TOPO (Invitrogen) as per the manufacturer's directions. Colonies containing the PCR insert were grown overnight, the plasmid DNA extracted and purified, and the plasmid DNA analyzed for the correct PCR insert as per standard protocols to those known of skill in the art. The inserts were sequenced to verify the correct sequence of each fragment and then the optimized gene was assembled (SEQ ID NO:l) using standard protocols known to those of skill in the art. The 5' fragment was assembled to contain a plant leader sequence (SEQ ID NO:2) to ensure high expression in plants and the OPH gene containing the plant leader (SEQ ID NO: 3) was cloned into a standard plant expression cassette to ensure high expression in plants.
  • SEQ ID NO:2 plant leader sequence
  • SEQ ID NO:3 was cloned into a standard plant expression cassette to ensure high expression in plants.
  • Linearized or supercoiled plant vector DNA containing the OPH gene and plant leader sequence is mixed with the protoplasts in a final volume of 0.5 ml at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml and 7 x 10 5 cells/ml respectively in a 16 mm diameter Nunc Multidish well.
  • a single pulse is administered at room temperature (23°C) in a Hoefer PG 101 ProGenetor electroporation unit using a PG120-2.5 electrode for 10 msec at 200 V. Electroporated protoplasts are kept stationary for 10 minutes prior to the addition of 1 ml of culture medium. Cells were subsequently diluted to a final concentration of 10 5 cells/ml. These cells may then be assayed for transient expression of the OPH gene after a period of 40-48 hours or depending on the DNA vector construct used, plated to generate callus tissues under appropriate selection, followed by regeneration to whole plants.
  • Regen I promotes somatic embryo differentiation (See Abbe & Stein, "The Origin of the Shoot Apex in Maize; Embryogeny", N.J. Bot. 41:285, 293 (1954)).
  • Regen II promotes embryo enlargement and maturation, and Regen III promotes germination.
  • the tissue is incubated on each medium for approximately two weeks. The first two incubation steps are carried out in the dark at 28°C and the final incubation step is carried out under a 16:8-hour photo period with about 70 ⁇ E ⁇ r 2 sec 1 provided by cool-white fluorescent bulbs at about 25°C.
  • the plates Upon completion of all three incubations, the plates are placed in a single layer on shelves in a lighted incubator and are sealed with 3-M Scotch Brand #394 mending tape.
  • 3-M tape is preferred over either Parafilm or masking tape as it "breathes" better and helps reduce condensation problems.
  • Small green shoots formed on Regen III in 100 x 25-mm petri plates are transferred to Regen III medium and 200 x 25- mm Pyrex tubes or Phytatrays to permit further plantlet development and root formation.
  • the plants may be carefully removed from the medium, the root system washed thoroughly under running water, and the plants placed into a 2. 5" square pot containing Metromix 350 growing medium. Watering with the systemic fungicide benomyl (100 mg/1 Benlate) will reduce the risk of fungal contamination. It is critical to maintain the freshly transplanted plants in a high humidity environment for several days.
  • Regeneration of plants from Type II callus is based upon allowing the embryoids on the surface of the Type II callus to mature and germinate. See Freeling & Walbot, The Maize Handbook (1994) at page 673-674. The procedure used is essentially that as described in Freeling & Walbot. The callus are first collected and weighed in petri plates. 1-2 grams fresh weight of soft, friable Type II callus containing numerous embryoids are evenly distributed over the surface of a 100 x 15-mm petri plate which contains 25 ml of regeneration medium.
  • Regeneration medium consists of Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal salts, modified White's vitamins (0.2 g/1 glycine, and 0.5 g/1 of each of thiamine-HCl, pyridoxine-HCl, and nicotinic acid), supplemented with 6% sucrose, 0.1 g/1 myo-inositol, and 0.8% Bacto-ager (6SMS0D).
  • MS Murashige and Skoog
  • modified White's vitamins 0.2 g/1 glycine, and 0.5 g/1 of each of thiamine-HCl, pyridoxine-HCl, and nicotinic acid
  • 6SMS0D Bacto-ager
  • the plate should be examined for shoot formation from the calli.
  • the calli and the shoot should then be transferred to fresh Bacto-ager plates for another two weeks.
  • the callus without shoots can be left on the Bacto-ager for a longer period if the callus is slow in embryo development.
  • Magenta GA-7 Magneticenta Corp., Chicago, IL
  • Organophosphorous hydrolase that is produced by transformed maize plants containing the optimized OPH gene and plant leader sequence is purified by standard methods known to those in the art.
  • the presence of the OPH protein can be detected utilizing protein purified from transformed plant tissues.
  • the expression and stability of the OPH gene product can be assayed by allowing the OPH optimized gene product to come into association with the pesticide, neurotoxin, or compound containing phosphoryl-bonds. These compounds can then be analyzed to determine if the OPH gene product hydrolyzed the P-O, P-F, P-CN, and/or P-S phosphoryl-bonds.
