苏云金芽胞杆菌营养期杀虫蛋白基因的克隆及表达分析

选择本实验室分离的苏云金芽胞杆菌李氏亚种 (subsp. Leesis) 菌株YBT833、鲇泽亚种(subsp.Aizawai) 菌株YBT-1416和库斯塔克亚种(subsp. Kurstaki)菌株YBT1535为出发菌株，以营养期杀虫蛋白基因PCR扩增的特异片段为探针，进行总DNA酶切片段的Southern杂交定位。结果显示3株菌株的营养期杀虫蛋白基因，均位于经XbaI完全消化的4～5kb大小的DNA 片段上。将该区域DNA片段回收后克隆到pUC19载体，建立了3个较基因组文库小的亚基因组文库。通过菌落原位杂交筛选和酶切鉴定分别得到3个相应的营养期杀虫蛋白基因vip83、vip14和vip15,并对其测序。DNA序列比较发现基因vip83与已知营养期杀虫蛋白基因存在5个差异碱基。将vip83、vip14基因亚克隆到苏云金芽胞杆菌大肠杆菌穿梭载体pHT315, 分别得到重组质粒pBMB8901和pBMB8902。将它们电转化到vip^-的B.t.受体菌BMB171和4Q7，获得了相应的工程菌BMB8901-171，BMB8902-171，BMB8901-4Q7和BMB8902-4Q7。SDS-PAGE电泳检测均有88kD大小的蛋白表达。生物测定结果亦表明了，营养期杀虫蛋白Vip83和Vip14对鳞翅目棉铃虫、小菜蛾和甜菜夜蛾的三龄幼虫均有一定的杀虫活性；其中对小菜蛾的毒力最高，LC₅₀值分别为28.6，31.6，45.4和37.6μL/mL。该结果为构建高效广谱工程菌提供了实际材料和理论依据。 

The Analysis of Bacillus thuringiensis Vegetative Insecticical Protein Gene Cloning and Expression

Three kinds of Bacillus thuringiensis serotype-subsp. Leesis(H33) strain YBT-833, subsp. Aizawai(H7) strain YBT-1416 and subsp. Kurstaki(H3ab) strain YBT-1535, which were isolated by our lab, are chosen as original strain to clone vegetative insecticidal protein gene. Southern hybridization showed that vip genes are all localized at roughly 4-5 kb size-fractionated XbaI fragments of total DNA from YBT-833, YBT-1416 and YBT-1535. Three subgenomic libraries containing the vip gene fragment, were constructed with pUC19 as vector. Then, three vegetative insecticidal protein gene vip83, vip14 and vip15 are obtained from the libraries through the methods of colony-blot-in-situ screening and enzyme-cut detection. Comparision of DNA sequence made out that only vip83 gene exist five different base pairs with known vip genes. Because the sequences of vip14 and vip15 are the same, two of the three genes, vip83 and vip14, were subcloned to shuttle vehicle pHT315 to get recombinant plasmids pBMB8901 and pBMB8902 in turn. The plasmids were separately transformed into vip Bt. receptors BMB171 and 4Q7 to obtain four engineered strains BMB8901-171, BMB8902-171, BMB8901-4Q7 and BMB8902-4Q7. SDS-PAGE results indicated that all recombinant strains express 88 kD vegetative insecticidal protein. Bioassay also showed that the proteins of genes vip83 and vip14 both have certain toxicity to Lepidopteran insect larvae such as Heliochis armigera, Spodotera exigua and Plutella xylostella. While the toxicity of vip protein from four engineered strains to Plutella xylostellas are highest, whose LC50 value is 28.6, 31.6, 45.4 and 37.6 microL/mL respectively. This study will contributed to construct high efficacy and wide spectrum engineered strains on theory and reality.
