临床常见镰刀菌的鉴别

目的从分子生物学角度寻找一种快速准确鉴定临床常见镰刀菌的方法。方法将受试镰刀菌接种于PDA培养基,观察其菌落及镜下形态,在此基础上PCR扩增受试镰刀菌的rDNA ITS并测其序列,在GenBank核酸序列数据库进行同源序列搜索及分析。选择限制性内切酶Dra Ⅱ和Cfr13 Ⅰ进行RFLP。设计了茄病镰刀菌的种特异性引物Sol1、Sol2,初步验证其特异性。结果形态学鉴定结果显示,茄病镰刀菌所占比例最高,除2株串珠镰刀菌外,其余镰刀菌ITS序列分析的结果与形态学鉴定结果一致。茄病、层生和串珠镰刀菌的Dra Ⅱ、Cfr13 I酶切带形互不相同。用Sol1、Sol2扩增受试菌的rDNA ITS,只有茄病镰刀菌为阳性。结论rDNA ITS序列测定及其PCR-RFLP可用于初步鉴别几种临床常见镰刀菌,合适的种特异性引物可以初步快速鉴定茄病镰刀菌。     

Trichoderma harzianum strain SQR-T37 and its bio-organic fertilizer could control Rhizoctonia solani damping-off disease in cucumber seedlings mainly by the mycoparasitism

Damping-off disease is caused by Rhizoctonia solani and leads to serious loss in many crops. Biological control is an efficient and environmentally friendly way to prevent damping-off disease. Optical micrographs, scanning electron micrographs, and the determination of hydrolytic enzymes were used to investigate the antagonism of Trichoderma harzianum SQR-T37 (SQR-T37) against R. solani. Experiments were performed in pots to assess the in vivo disease-control efficiency of SQR-T37 and bio-organic fertilizer. The results indicate that the mycoparasitism was the main mechanism accounting for the antagonistic activity of SQR-T37. In one experiment, the population of R. solani was decreased from 10⁶ internal transcribed spacer (ITS) copies per gram soil to 10⁴ ITS copies per gram soil by the presence of the antagonist. In this experiment, 45% of the control efficiency was obtained when 8 g of SQR-T37 hyphae per gram soil was applied. In a second experiment, as much as 81.82% of the control efficiency was obtained when bio-organic fertilizer (SQR-T37 fermented organic fertilizer, BIO) was applied compared to only 27.27% of the control efficiency when only 4 g of SQR-T37 hyphae per gram soil was applied. Twenty days after incubation, the population of T. harzianum was 4.12 × 10⁷ ITS copies per gram soil in the BIO treatment, which was much higher than that in the previous treatment (8.77 × 10⁵ ITS copies per gram soil), where only SQR-T37 was applied. The results indicated that SQR-T37 was a potent antagonist against R. solani in a mycoparasitic way that decreased the population of the pathogen. Applying BIO was more efficient than SQR-T37 application alone because it stabilized the population of the antagonist.

Increasing activity and thermal resistance of Bacillus gibsonii alkaline protease (BgAP) by directed evolution

Bacillus gibsonii Alkaline Protease (BgAP) is a recently reported subtilisin protease exhibiting activity and stability properties suitable for applications in laundry and dish washing detergents. However, BgAP suffers from a significant decrease of activity at low temperatures. In order to increase BgAP activity at 15°C, a directed evolution campaign based on the SeSaM random mutagenesis method was performed. An optimized microtiter plate expression system in B. subtilis was established and classical proteolytic detection methods were adapted for high throughput screening. In parallel, the libraries were screened for increased residual proteolytic activity after incubation at 58°C. Three iterative rounds of directed BgAP evolution yielded a set of BgAP variants with increased specific activity (K_cat) at 15°C and increased thermal resistance. Recombination of both sets of amino acid substitutions resulted finally in variant MF1 with a 1.5‐fold increased specific activity (15°C) and over 100 times prolonged half‐life at 60°C (224 min compared to 2 min of the WT BgAP). None of the introduced amino acid substitutions were close to the active site of BgAP. Activity‐altering amino acid substitutions were from non‐charged to non‐charged or from sterically demanding to less demanding. Thermal stability improvements were achieved by substitutions to negatively charged amino acids in loop areas of the BgAP surface which probably fostered ionic and hydrogen bonds interactions.
