根癌农杆菌介导灭蚊卵菌贵阳腐霉的遗传转化

Pythium guiyangense is a mosquito pathogen, and has been proved to be a promising agent for biological control of mosquitoes. In order to develop the strains adaptable to different ecological environment having stable virulence to mosquito larvae, and being able to prolong the shelf life, an effort was made on transforming the fungus by using homologous or heterologous virulence genes. In this paper, a genetic transformation experiment of P. guiyangense mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens is reported. As a result, an A. tumefaciens mediated genetic transformation system was established successfully.     

Effect of a nuclepolyhedrovirus of Autographa californica expressing the enhancin gene of Trichoplusia ni granulovirus on T. ni larvae

A recombinant Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) strain showing higher virulence against Trichoplusia ni larvae than the wild-type virus was developed. The 'enhancin' (VEF) gene of T. ni granulovirus (TnGV) and the AcMNPV polyhedrin gene were cloned into the baculovirus transfer vector pAcUW31. This plasmid and AcMNPV BacPAK6 DNA were co-transfected into the BTI-Tn5B1-4 cell line. A recombinant AcMNPV strain (BacVEFPol) was purified, amplified, and bioassayed against T. ni first instar larvae. Its estimated LC₅₀ (0.184 OB/mm²) was 2.18 times lower than the LC₅₀ estimated for the wild-type AcMNPV (0.402 OB/mm²). Likewise, an LT₅₀ of 67.7 h was estimated for the recombinant AcMNPV strain while the LT₅₀ of wild-type AcMNPV was estimated at 81.9 h. This indicates a 17.4% reduction of the time required to kill the larvae. The higher virulence of the recombinant strain, evidenced by its LC₅₀ and LT₅₀ values being lower than those of the wild-type strain, indicates that the VEF protein is expressed properly and may be occluded in the OBs.     

Enhancing the stress tolerance and virulence of an entomopathogen by metabolic engineering of dihydroxynaphthalene melanin biosynthesis genes

Entomopathogenic fungi have been used for biocontrol of insect pests for many decades. However, the efficacy of such fungi in field trials is often inconsistent, mainly due to environmental stresses, such as UV radiation, temperature extremes, and desiccation. To circumvent these hurdles, metabolic engineering of dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) melanin biosynthetic genes (polyketide synthase, scytalone dehydratase, and 1,3,8-trihydroxynaphthalene reductase genes) cloned from Alternaria alternata were transformed into the amelanotic entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Melanin expression in the transformant of M. anisopliae was verified by spectrophotometric methods, liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS), and confocal microscopy. The transformant, especially under stresses, showed notably enhanced antistress capacity and virulence, in terms of germination and survival rate, infectivity, and reduced median time to death (LT50) in killing diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) larvae compared with the wild type. The possible mechanisms in enhancing the stress tolerance and virulence, and the significance and potential for engineering melanin biosynthesis genes in other biocontrol agents and crops to improve antistress fitness are discussed.     

Agrobacterium-mediated insertional mutagenesis of the ochratoxigenic fungus Aspergillus westerdijkiae

Aspergillus westerdijkiae is a potent ochratoxin A (OTA) producer that has been found in coffee beans. OTA is known to have nephrotoxic effects and carcinogenic potential in animal species. Here we report for the first time the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation for Aspergillus westerdijkiae and the generation of ochratoxin-defective mutants. Conidia were transformed to hygromycin B resistance using strain AGL-1 of Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The obtained transformation frequency was up to 47 transformants per 10(6) target conidia. Among 600 transformants, approximately 5% showed morphological variations. Eight transformants with consistently reduced OTA production were obtained. Two of these transformants did not produce OTA (detection limit: 0.1 microg/kg); the other six mutants produced lower amounts of OTA (1%-32%) compared with the wild-type strain. By using thermal asymmetric interlaced polymerase chain reaction, we successfully identified a putative flavin adenine dinucleotide monooxygenase gene.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Agrobacterium</Emphasis>-mediated transformation of centipedegrass (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Eremochloa ophiuroides</Emphasis> [Munro] Hack.)

Centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides [Munro] Hack.) is an important warm-season turfgrass and pasture grass. Due to availability of an efficient regeneration system, this study was undertaken to develop an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system for centipedegrass for potential use in its genetic improvements. Embryogenic calli were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium strain EHA105 harboring pCAMBIA1301, followed by selection of hygromycin B (hyg B)-resistant callus and regenerated plantlets. The transformants were analyzed using PCR, DNA blot, RNA blot and semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Two transformant lines, lines 2 and 6, showed integration and expression of the hyg B resistance gene hpt. Line 2 revealed a single integration of the hpt transgene, while line 6 revealed two integration sites of hpt. Both lines exhibited resistance to hyg B, although line 2 showed higher level of expression of hpt.

Production of l-phenylalanine from trans-cinnamic acids by high-level expression of phenylalanine ammonia lyase gene from Rhodosporidium toruloides in Escherichia coli

A combined promoter expression vector pBV–PAL for high-level expression of phenylalanine ammonia lyase gene of Rhodosporidium toruloides was constructed. Pal gene was cloned and inserted into the region between SalI and PstI restriction sites of expression vector pBV220 (containing P_LP_R promoter) to obtain recombinant expression vector pBV220–PAL. The tac promoter obtained from the plasmid pKtac was inserted into the expression vector pBV220–PAL to construct expression vector pBV–PAL. The recombinant plasmid pBV220–PAL and pBV–PAL were introduced into Escherichia coli JM109 by transformation. The result showed that the transformant E. coli JM109 (pBV–PAL) gave a much higher PAL activity than that transformant E. coli JM109 (pBV220–PAL). Recombinant PAL expression level of the transformant JM109 (pBV–PAL) was about 9.6% of total cellular protein, specific enzyme activity was 2.3-fold higher than that of the transformant JM109 (pBV220–PAL), reached 35 U/g (dry cells weight, DCW). PAL specific activity of 123 U/g (DCW) could be achieved in a 5-l fermentor. 80.5% conversion rate of trans-cinnamic acid to l-phenylalanine and 5.12 g/l l-phenylalanine were obtained after 3 h bioconversion using the transformant JM109 (pBV–PAL). The recombinant strain JM109 containing the combined promoter expression vector pBV–PAL was shown to be effective and practical to product l-phenylalanine.
