Construction of a fusion enzyme system by gene splicing as a new molecular recognition element for a sequence biosensor.

A bifunctional fusion enzyme system constructed by gene splicing is proposed as a new model to develop sequence biosensors, taking maltose biosensor as an example. The cDNA fragment of Aspergillus niger glucoamylase (E.C 3.2.1.3, GA) was fused to the 3' end of Aspergillus niger glucose oxidase (E.C 1.1.3.4, GOD) gene with the insertion of a flexible linker peptide [-(Ser-Gly)5-] coding sequence. The fusion gene was cloned into the vector pPIC9 and expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115 under the control of the AOX1 promoter. It was found that a bifunctional hybrid protein with a molecular weight of 430 kDa was secreted after induction with methanol. The fusion enzyme GOD-(Ser-Gly)5-GA (GLG) was purified using Q Sepharose Fast Flow ion-exchange chromatography. Kinetic analysis demonstrated that GLG retained the typical kinetic properties of both GA and GOD. After being immobilized on an aminosilanized glass slide through covalent bonding by glutaraldehyde, GLG showed much higher sequential catalytic efficiency than the mixture of separately expressed GA and GOD (GA/GOD). Maltose biosensors were fabricated with GLG and GA/GOD, respectively. The performance characteristics of the maltose biosensor with respect to reproducibility, signal level, and linearity were effectively improved by using the fusion enzyme. Our findings offer a basis for the development of other sequence biosensors.     

Cloning and heterologous expression of gene encoding A polygalacturonase from Aspergillus awamori

A polygalacturonase gene of Aspergillus awamori IFO 4033 was cloned by genomic Southern hybridization with a probe of a DNA fragment synthesized by PCR. This was done using primers constructed based on the N-terminal amino acid sequence of a polygalacturonase, protopectinase-AS, produced by the strain and the consensus internal amino acid sequence of fungal polygalacturonases. The cloned polygalacturonase gene, containing an ORF, encodes 362 amino acids, including a 52-bp intron. It contains the consensus nucleotide sequence of PacC binding sites, and its expression was appeared to be regulated by ambient pH. After the intron was excised, the cloned gene was inserted into an expression plasmid for yeast, pMA91, and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae to be expressed. The expressed gene product was purified to a homogeneous preparation, and this confirmed that the polygalacturonase produced was the product of the cloned gene.     

Cloning and expression of a parathion hydrolase gene from a soil bacterium, Burkholderia sp. JBA3

A bacterium, Burkholderia sp. JBA3, which can mineralize the pesticide parathion, was isolated from an agricultural soil. The strain JBA3 hydrolyzed parathion to p-nitrophenol, which was further utilized as the carbon and energy sources. The parathion hydrolase was encoded by a gene on a plasmid that strain JBA3 harbored, and it was cloned into pUC19 as a 3.7-kbp Sau3AI fragment. The ORF2 (ophB) in the cloned fragment encoded the parathion hydrolase composed of 526 amino acids, which was expressed in E. coli DH10B. The ophB gene showed no significant sequence similarity to most of other reported parathion hydrolase genes.     

Secretory and continuous expression of Aspergillus niger glucose oxidase gene in Pichia pastoris

We proposed a yeast transformant cell incorporating the Aspergillus niger glucose oxidase gene (GOX gene), which is capable of constitutively as well as secretory expression. The GOX gene has been cloned in this study. This conclusion is based on the following: first, the ligated DNA determined by electrophoresis, was a 1489-1882bp fragment, close to the size of glucose oxidase (GOD), which is 1818bp. Secondly, the single open reading frame encoded a protein of 605 amino acids. Thirdly, secreted GOD recombinant proteins in the culture supernatants of the GOX gene transformant migrated as a single band in SDS-PAGE with an apparent molecular mass of between 75,000 and 100,000 Da, which is glycosylated GOD by the Pichia pastoris X-33 host machinery during the secretion process. Finally, the clones were cultured and secreted a protein, which possessed the GOD activity of catalyzing beta-d-glucose oxidation. With regard to the pH characteristics, the activity was more than 80% of the maximum activity in the range between pH 5 and pH 7. As for the temperature characteristics, the activity was not less than 92% of the maximum in the temperature range between 10 and 45 degrees C. The GOX gene transformant was able to maintain the GOD enzyme activity and produce recombinant GOD continuously for at least 2 weeks.     

Cloning of the genes for degradation of the herbicides EPTC (S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate) and atrazine from Rhodococcus sp. strain TE1.

The degradation of the herbicides EPTC (S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate) and atrazine (2-chloro-4-ethyl-amino-6-isopropylamino-1,3,5-triazine) is associated with an indigenous plasmid in Rhodococcus sp. strain TE1. Plasmid DNA libraries of Rhodococcus sp. strain TE1 were constructed in a Rhodococcus-Escherichia coli shuttle vector, pBS305, and transferred into Rhodococcus sp. strain TE3, a derivative of Rhodococcus sp. strain TE1 lacking herbicide degradation activity, to select transformants capable of growing on EPTC as the sole source of carbon (EPTC+). Analysis of plasmids from the EPTC+ transformants indicated that the eptA gene, which codes for the enzyme required for EPTC degradation, residues on a 6.2-kb KpnI fragment. The cloned fragment also harbored the gene required for atrazine N dealkylation (atrA). The plasmid carrying the cloned fragment could be electroporated into a number of other Rhodococcus strains in which both eptA and atrA were fully expressed. No expression of the cloned genes was evident in E. coli strains. Subcloning of the 6.2-kb fragment to distinguish between EPTC- and atrazine-degrading genes was not successful.     

Distribution of Methanotrophs in the Phyllosphere

A polygalacturonase gene of Aspergillus awamori IFO 4033 was cloned by genomic Southern hybridization with a probe of a DNA fragment synthesized by PCR. This was done using primers constructed based on the N-terminal amino acid sequence of a polygalacturonase, protopectinase-AS, produced by the strain and the consensus internal amino acid sequence of fungal polygalacturonases. The cloned polygalacturonase gene, containing an ORF, encodes 362 amino acids, including a 52-bp intron. It contains the consensus nucleotide sequence of PacC binding sites, and its expression was appeared to be regulated by ambient pH. After the intron was excised, the cloned gene was inserted into an expression plasmid for yeast, pMA91, and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae to be expressed. The expressed gene product was purified to a homogeneous preparation, and this confirmed that the polygalacturonase produced was the product of the cloned gene.     

Expression of a subcloned alpha-amylase gene under the control of a Xanthomonas campestris promoter

Abstract Using the promoter probe pKK232-8 a 0.6-kb fragment containing an active promoter sequence from Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris was cloned. Two new plasmids were constructed: (a) pAP2, which contains the amy gene from Bacillus subtilis cloned between the Eco RI and Hin dIII sites in the pMFY40 plasmid, and (b) pAP2X, obtained after introduction of the cloned X. campestris promoter upstream from the amy gene. These plasmids were introduced into amylolytic and non-amylolytic strains of X. campestris pv campestris and pv manihotis , respectively. Quantification of alpha-amylase specific activity in liquid culture showed that the introduction of a Xanthomonas promoter doubled the expression of amy gene when the host strain was the pathovar campestris but had little effect on the strain from pathovar manihotis . This difference in the promoter activity might indicate that the cloned promoter is specific and could be involved in pathovar differentiation or plant-pathogen interaction.     

Development of a method for heterologous gene expression in Enterobacter amnigenus, a potential host for the biological control of mosquito larvi

An integrative plasmid containing a 1.3 kb fragment of chromosomal DNA from Enterobacter amnigenus was constructed. The Omega fragment encoding spectinomycin/streptomycin resistance was cloned into the unique BglII site of the resulting plasmid, and the interrupted fragment was transferred via plasmid pMAK705 by electroporation into E. amnigenus with a selection for spectinomycin resistance. Cointegrants were resolved to generate an E. amnigenus strain that expressed spectinomycin resistance, but grew as rapidly as the parental strain. The cloned fragment encodes a putative homologue of the proW gene of Escherichia coli that is not essential for E. amnigenus growth. The integrative plasmid is now available to introduce any heterologous DNA into the E. amnigenus chromosome, for the construction of promoter-probe vectors for the studies of gene regulation, or to construct plasmids suitable for the isolation of secretion signals. Immediate applications of this system will include the expression and secretion of crystal toxins from bacilli for the biological control of mosquito larvae infected with the bacterial host.     

Cloning of grisin resistance gene gsr and the study of its functioning in Streptomyces griseus Kr. strain

S. griseus Kr. is a commercial strain producing grisin, an antibiotic of the streptothricin group used as a feed additive. It was shown earlier that genetic instability of the strain was very high which was evident from a high frequency of nonreverting Grn- Grns mutants. With densitographic analysis of chromosomal DNA electrophoregrams and DNA-DNA hybridization it was revealed that the molecular basis of the genetic instability of the S. griseus strain was deletion of a DNA fragment about 20 kb in size containing a grisin resistance gene. The resistance gene designated as gsr was cloned to S. lividans TK 64 within the plasmid vector pIJ699. The restriction map of a cloned DNA fragment with a gsr gene was constructed and its similarity to that of a nat gene resistant to norseothricin, another streptothricin was observed. Introduction of a gsr gene within the multicopy plasmid pIJ699 into S. griseus 212, a highly productive strain synthesiing the antibiotic, led to an increase in its resistance and productivity. Proceeding from the preliminary data on possible linkage of a gsr gene and grisin biosynthesis genes, it appeared possible to use the cloned gene as a molecular probe in cloning the biosynthesis genes.
