Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of microorganisms, in particular to a regulatory element that antagonizes the positional effect of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome and its application.
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae the position of the gene in the genome plays an important role in the expression of the gene, and its position often affects the transcription of the gene.
- regulating the expression of endogenous or exogenous genes is the main way to construct microbial cell factories.
- integrating foreign genes or synthetic pathways into the genome is the most commonly used method.
- gene replication and transcription in microbial cells are controlled by the structure of chromosomes. This phenomenon is called positional effect, and it is usually manifested as genes exhibiting different levels of transcription at different sites. This phenomenon is found in many microbial species, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is commonly used in industrial production.
- the first objective of the present invention is to provide a regulatory element that can antagonize the positional effect of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
- the present invention first selects 12 genomic sites and uses the lycopene synthesis pathway as the reporter gene to investigate the positional effect; and finds that the gene sequence in the synthesis pathway also has a significant impact on transcription; finally, it proposes to use insulators to antagonize low expression The position effect of the locus.
- the nucleotide sequence of the regulatory element is shown in SEQ ID NO.1.
- the second object of the present invention is to provide the application of the above-mentioned regulatory elements in antagonizing the positional effect of the gal80 locus of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
- the above-mentioned regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription expression element inserted into the gal80 locus of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
- regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription and expression element whose gene sequence is crtE-crtB-crtI.
- the third object of the present invention is to provide a method for regulating the position effect of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome, which is to insert regulatory elements into the gal80 site or both ends of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
- regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription and expression elements, and then inserted into the gal80 locus of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
- regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription and expression element with the gene sequence crtE-crtB-crtI, and then inserted into the gal80 site of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
- the fourth objective of the present invention is to provide a Saccharomyces cerevisiae with high lycopene production, which is to place crtI, crtE, and crtB under a promoter, and then connect and fuse in the order of crtI, crtE, and crtB, and insert them into Saccharomyces cerevisiae At the gal80 locus of the genome.
- the present invention found that the chromosome near gal80 site of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has a special structure, and there may be other types of positional effects other than HM site (mating type allocation site) silencing effect.
- the transcription activation region of TEF2 is added at both ends, and the results show that the transcription activation region of TEF2 can indeed antagonize the unknown position effect of gal80 and can significantly increase the content of lycopene.
- its antagonistic effect is mainly to prevent the position effect from affecting gene transcription in the synthetic pathway.
- Figure 1 shows the influence of different genomic sites on the pathway of exogenous synthesis.
- A Schematic diagram of the integration of exogenous synthesis pathways;
- B the influence of genomic sites on the content of lycopene, where ARS416d, 106a, etc. represent different genomic sites;
- C the transcription of each gene in the exogenous pathway at different sites, where ARS416d, 106a, etc. represent different genomic loci.
- Figure 2 shows the influence of different gene sequences on the pathway of exogenous synthesis.
- A Schematic diagram of gene sequence integration of different exogenous synthesis pathways;
- B The influence of different sequences on lycopene content;
- EBI strain PE13, gene sequence is crtE-crtB-crtI;
- IEB strain PE14 gene sequence is crtI-crtE -crtB;
- BIE strain PE01, the gene sequence is crtB-crtI-crtE.
- C The transcription of each gene in different order.
- Figure 3 shows the influence of the insulator on the external source path.
- A Schematic diagram of the use of insulators
- B The effect of insulators on the content of lycopene, in which EBI is not inserted into the insulator, and EBI-ins is the inserted insulator
- C the insulator affects the transcription of genes in the foreign synthesis pathway.
- the reagents involved in the embodiments of the present invention are all commercially available products, and all can be purchased through commercial channels.
- the Saccharomyces cerevisiae medium in the examples is YPM medium: yeast extract 10g/L, peptone 20g/L, glucose 20g/L, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 10g/L, magnesium sulfate heptahydrate 5g/L, potassium sulfate 3.5g/ L, sodium phosphate 2.5g/, TMS solution 1 ml/L (magnesium chloride hexahydrate 250mg/L, calcium chloride dihydrate 104.5mg/L, mg/L, copper sulfate pentahydrate 0.4mg/L, sodium iodide 0.08mg /L, manganese chloride tetrahydrate 0.1mg/L, sodium molybdate dihydrate 0.5mg/L, boric acid 1mg/L, cobalt chloride hexahydrate 0.3mg/L, zinc sulfate heptahydrate 6.25mg/L, sulfuric acid heptahydrate Ferrous iron 3.5mg/

Description
本发明涉及微生物技术领域,特别涉及一种拮抗酿酒酵母基因组位置效应的调控元件及其应用。The present invention relates to the technical field of microorganisms, in particular to a regulatory element that antagonizes the positional effect of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome and its application.
在酿酒酵母中,基因在基因组中的位置对基因的表达有着重要的作用,其位点往往会影响基因的转录。通常情况下,通过调控内源或者外源基因的表达是构建微生物细胞工厂的主要方式。在改造过程中,为了进行稳定的大规模生产,将外源基因或合成途径整合进基因组是最常采用的方法。然而,在微生物细胞中基因的复制和转录会受到染色体结构的控制。这种现象被称作位置效应,通常表现为基因在不同位点呈现出不同的转录水平。这种现象在众多微生物种都有发现,包括工业生产中常用的酿酒酵母。In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the position of the gene in the genome plays an important role in the expression of the gene, and its position often affects the transcription of the gene. Normally, regulating the expression of endogenous or exogenous genes is the main way to construct microbial cell factories. In the process of transformation, in order to carry out stable large-scale production, integrating foreign genes or synthetic pathways into the genome is the most commonly used method. However, gene replication and transcription in microbial cells are controlled by the structure of chromosomes. This phenomenon is called positional effect, and it is usually manifested as genes exhibiting different levels of transcription at different sites. This phenomenon is found in many microbial species, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is commonly used in industrial production.
由于在工业生产中的广泛应用,酿酒酵母位置效应已有众多研究。例如,以LacZ为报告基因,20个位点可以呈现8.7倍的差异;同样以LacZ为报告基因,在18个位点中可以呈现14倍的差异。为了获得基因组组学水平的位置效应,分别以GFP和RFP为报告基因,考察了482个和1044个位点的位置效应。这些研究都是以单个基因为报告基因,以一条合成途径为报告基因的还未见报道。并且,这些研究只是呈现不同位点的差异,并没有提出如何解决低表达位点的办法。Due to its wide application in industrial production, there have been many studies on the positional effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For example, with LacZ as the reporter gene, 20 loci can present an 8.7-fold difference; also with LacZ as the reporter gene, a 14-fold difference can be present at 18 loci. In order to obtain the position effect at the genomics level, using GFP and RFP as reporter genes, respectively, the position effect of 482 and 1044 loci were investigated. These studies all use a single gene as the reporter gene, and there is no report that uses a synthetic pathway as the reporter gene. Moreover, these studies only show the differences between different sites, and do not propose how to solve the low expression sites.
发明内容Summary of the invention

本发明的第二个目的是提供上述调控元件在拮抗酿酒酵母基因组gal80位点的位置效应中的应用。The second object of the present invention is to provide the application of the above-mentioned regulatory elements in antagonizing the positional effect of the gal80 locus of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
优选,是在插入酿酒酵母基因组gal80位点位置的基因转录表达元件两端加上上述调控元件。Preferably, the above-mentioned regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription expression element inserted into the gal80 locus of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.

优选,是在基因转录表达元件两端加上调控元件,然后再插入酿酒酵母基因组gal80位点。Preferably, regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription and expression elements, and then inserted into the gal80 locus of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
优选,是在基因顺序为crtE-crtB-crtI的基因转录表达元件两端加上调控元件,然后再插入酿酒酵母基因组gal80位点。Preferably, regulatory elements are added to both ends of the gene transcription and expression element with the gene sequence crtE-crtB-crtI, and then inserted into the gal80 site of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
本发明的第四个目的是提供一种高产番茄红素的酿酒酵母菌,其是将crtI、crtE、crtB置于启动子下,然后按照crtI、crtE、crtB的顺序连接融合,插入到酿酒酵母基因组gal80位点处。The fourth objective of the present invention is to provide a Saccharomyces cerevisiae with high lycopene production, which is to place crtI, crtE, and crtB under a promoter, and then connect and fuse in the order of crtI, crtE, and crtB, and insert them into Saccharomyces cerevisiae At the gal80 locus of the genome.
本发明发现酿酒酵母gal80位点附近染色体存在特殊结构,可能存在非HM位点(交配型分配位点)沉默效应的其它类型的位置效应,本发明尝试在基因顺序为crtE-crtB-crtI合成途径两端加上TEF2的转录激活区域,结果表明,TEF2的转录激活区域确实可以拮抗gal80 位点的未知位置效应,可以显著提高番茄红素的含量。同时,也表明其拮抗作用主要是阻止了位置效应对合成途径中基因转录的影响。The present invention found that the chromosome near gal80 site of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has a special structure, and there may be other types of positional effects other than HM site (mating type allocation site) silencing effect. The transcription activation region of TEF2 is added at both ends, and the results show that the transcription activation region of TEF2 can indeed antagonize the unknown position effect of gal80 and can significantly increase the content of lycopene. At the same time, it also shows that its antagonistic effect is mainly to prevent the position effect from affecting gene transcription in the synthetic pathway.

Using the application number 201910267866.1, the invention name is a recombinant yeast strain and the pHCas9M-gRNA plasmid constructed in Example 1 in its application as a template, the primers in the primer list 2 were used to construct YDR448W, YGR240C, YGR038W, YPRCΔ15, YPRCt3, YORWΔ22, ARS308a, 911b, 720a, gal80, 106a, ARS416d genomic integration plasmids (Table 1); crtE, crtB, crtI modules use the modules constructed in the invention patent 201910267866.1 as templates, and use the relevant primers in the primer list to amplify different positions Point of function module.

As shown in Figure 1B, the lycopene content of each strain is significantly related to the genomic site where it is located, and there is a 3.8-fold difference between different sites, and the content is in the range of 0.3 to 1.2 mg/g dry cell weight.

实施例2 外源合成途径中基因顺序对类胡萝卜素合成的影响Example 2 The effect of gene sequence in the exogenous synthesis pathway on carotenoid synthesis
实施例1中番茄红素合成途径基因顺序为crtB-crtI-crtE的途径整合于酿酒酵母的gal80位点菌株为BIE(PE00)。以引物列表中对应引物分别扩增crtE,crtB,crtI功能模块,与酿酒酵母的gal80位点基因组整合质粒,进行基因顺序为crtE-crtB-crtI合成途径的基因组整合,构建菌株EBI(PE13)。以引物列表中对应引物分别扩增crtI,crtE,crtB功能模块,与酿酒酵母的gal80位点基因组整合质粒,进行基因顺序为crtI-crtE-crtB合成途径的基因组整合,构建菌株IEB(PE14)。In Example 1, the lycopene synthesis pathway gene sequence is crtB-crtI-crtE, and the pathway integrated into the gal80 site of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is BIE (PE00). The corresponding primers in the primer list were used to amplify the functional modules of crtE, crtB, and crtI respectively, and the genomic integration plasmid of gal80 site of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used to integrate the genomic sequence of the crtE-crtB-crtI synthetic pathway to construct the strain EBI (PE13). Use the corresponding primers in the primer list to amplify the functional modules of crtI, crtE, and crtB respectively, and integrate the plasmid with the gal80 locus genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and carry out the genomic integration of the crtI-crtE-crtB synthetic pathway to construct the strain IEB (PE14).
菌株EBI、菌株BIE、菌株IEB的外源合成途径基因顺序整合示意图如图2A所示。The schematic diagram of the sequence integration of the exogenous synthetic pathway genes of strain EBI, strain BIE, and strain IEB is shown in Figure 2A.
按标准的番茄红素测定方法(在YPM培养基摇瓶发酵条件下),对上述构建的菌株EBI、菌株BIE、菌株IEB合成番茄红素的含量进行测定。另外对各菌株中的crtI、crtE、crtB基因通过荧光定量PCR测定三个基因的转录情况。According to the standard lycopene determination method (under YPM medium shake flask fermentation conditions), the content of synthetic lycopene of the strain EBI, strain BIE, and strain IEB constructed above was determined. In addition, the crtI, crtE, and crtB genes in each strain were used to determine the transcription of the three genes by fluorescence quantitative PCR.
各菌株番茄红素的产量如图2B,由图2B可知,菌株IEB的番茄红素的含量最高,优于菌株BIE和菌株EBI。The lycopene yield of each strain is shown in Fig. 2B. It can be seen from Fig. 2B that the lycopene content of the strain IEB is the highest, which is better than that of the strain BIE and the strain EBI.
图2C为构建的菌株EBI、菌株BIE、菌株IEB菌株的crtI、crtB和crtE基因的转录量。各菌株中各基因的转录量不相同,其中番茄红素的含量最高菌株IEB中,其crtE转录量最高,其次是菌株BIE,最低是菌株EBI,与番茄红素的含量相一致。Figure 2C shows the transcription levels of the crtI, crtB and crtE genes of the constructed strain EBI, strain BIE, and strain IEB. The transcription amount of each gene in each strain is different. Among the strains with the highest lycopene content, the crtE transcription amount is the highest in the strain IEB, followed by the strain BIE, and the lowest is the strain EBI, which is consistent with the content of lycopene.
从上面可以看出,将合成途径中基因的顺序变成crtE-crtB-crtI进行基因组整合时,番茄红素的含量会显著降低,这预示着合成途径中基因的顺序可能会对代谢途径各基因的转录造成影响。这一点与理论不太相符,因为酿酒酵母中大部分基因是一个独立的转录本,彼此之间没有影响。我们构建的番茄红素合成途径也是这样,三个基因分别有各自的启动子和终止子,理论上变换顺序,彼此之间不会产生影响,也不会存在转录的差异。为了更清楚了解合成途径中基因顺序对基因转录的影响,我们又构建了crtI-crtE-crtB顺序的菌株,三种不同基因顺序的菌株番茄红素含量呈现出14倍的差异。经基因转录分析,不同基因顺序造成了30倍转录差异。这说明gal80位点附近染色体存在特殊结构,可能存在非HM位点(交配型分配位点)沉默效应的其它类型的位置效应。It can be seen from the above that when the sequence of genes in the synthetic pathway is changed to crtE-crtB-crtI for genome integration, the content of lycopene will be significantly reduced, which indicates that the sequence of genes in the synthetic pathway may affect the genes in the metabolic pathway. The transcription affects. This is not in line with theory, because most genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are independent transcripts and have no influence on each other. The lycopene synthesis pathway we constructed is the same. The three genes have their own promoters and terminators. Theoretically, the sequence of the three genes will be changed. There will be no influence on each other, and there will be no differences in transcription. In order to have a clearer understanding of the effect of gene sequence on gene transcription in the synthetic pathway, we constructed strains with the sequence crtI-crtE-crtB. The lycopene content of the three strains with different gene sequences showed a 14-fold difference. According to gene transcription analysis, different gene sequences caused a 30-fold transcription difference. This indicates that there is a special structure of the chromosome near the gal80 locus, and there may be other types of positional effects other than the silencing effect of the HM locus (mating-type allocation site).
实施例3 绝缘子对外源合成途径的影响Example 3 The influence of insulators on external synthesis pathways
位置效应的存在为外源合成途径的构建带来了不可预期的结果,那么怎么去消除或削弱位置效应就显得尤为重要,因为在前面的结果中,我们也可以看到,在同一位点不同的基因也会存在不同的转录特性,这就说明位置效应可能还存在特异性。我们尝试在基因顺序为crtE-crtB-crtI合成途径两端加上TEF2的转录激活区域(绝缘子,核苷酸序列为ccctgccggctgtgagggcgccataaccaaggtatctatagaccgccaatcagcaaactacctccgtacattcatgttgcacccacacatttat acacccagaccgcgacaaa,具体核苷酸序列如SEQ ID NO.1所示),用引物列表中对应引物扩增含有绝缘子的crtE,crtB,crtI功能模块,利用实施例1中类似的整合方法进行基因组整合,具体基因顺序整合示意图如图3A所示,图3A中的Insulator代表TEF2的转录激活区域。参照实施例1进行番茄红素的产量测定和各基因转录量测定,具体结果如图3所示,结果表明,TEF2的转录激活区域确实可以拮抗gal80位点的未知位置效应,可以显著提高番茄红素的含量(7倍,图3B)。同时,也表明其拮抗作用主要是阻止了位置效应对合成途径中基因转录的影响(提高10倍,图3C)。The existence of positional effects has brought unpredictable results to the construction of exogenous synthetic pathways, so how to eliminate or weaken positional effects is particularly important, because in the previous results, we can also see that they are different at the same site. There are also different transcriptional characteristics of the genes, which means that the position effect may also have specificity. We tried to add the transcription activation region of TEF2 (insulator, nucleotide sequence is ccctgccggctgtgagggcgccataaccaaggtatctatagaccgccaatcagcaaactacctccgtacattcatgttgcacccacacatttat acacccagaccgcacccacacatttat acacccagcagcagcaaactacctccgtacattcatgttgcacccacacatttat acacccagaccgcgacaaa) at both ends of the synthetic pathway of gene sequence crtE-crtB-crtI. The corresponding primers in the list amplify the functional modules of crtE, crtB, and crtI containing insulators, and use the similar integration method in Example 1 for genome integration. The schematic diagram of the specific gene sequence integration is shown in Figure 3A, and the Insulator in Figure 3A represents the transcription of TEF2. Activate the area. Refer to Example 1 for the determination of the yield of lycopene and the determination of the transcription amount of each gene. The specific results are shown in Figure 3. The results show that the transcription activation region of TEF2 can indeed antagonize the unknown position effect of the gal80 locus, and can significantly improve lycopene.
