Problems solved by technology

[0003] The n-3FatI gene is an important gene for the synthesis of n-3PUFAs. They use n-6PUFAs as a substrate to catalyze the formation of an unsaturated bond at the third carbon of the methyl end of the fatty acid carbon chain, thereby synthesizing the corresponding n-3PUFAs; therefore, In order to improve the content of n-3PUFAs in animals, in addition to ingesting foods containing more n-3PUFAs, the n-3FatI gene can also be used to synthesize n-6PUFAs as substrates, thereby fundamentally improving n-3PUFAs in animals. 6 and n-3PUFAs ratio imbalance problem; through transgenic technology, the preparation of livestock and poultry animals with n-3FatI gene can obtain the livestock and poultry that synthesize n-3PUFAs by itself, and then efficiently and cheaply produce eggs and milk containing n-3PUFAs Meat products; however, since the FatI gene only exists in fungi, plants and lower animals such as nematodes, these lower organisms have different codon preferences from higher organisms, which is not conducive to direct expression; by optimizing nematode codons, synthetic n- 3FatI gene, and through cell transfection to obtain a double-gene transfected cell line (CHO) stably expressing the gene, providing an effective way to cultivate new animal species rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and other aspects of the research has become the industry's ongoing research Technical content pursued

Embodiment 1

[0037] Embodiment 1: In this embodiment, the cell strains that stably express the FatI gene sequence that promotes the conversion of n-6 fatty acids in cells to n-3 fatty acids are cultivated according to the following steps:

[0038] 1.1 CHO cell culture: after the routine resuscitation of the CHO cell line, the DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 100U / ml penicillin and 100mg / L streptomycin sulfate (the present invention has no special instructions, all use this medium) Cultivate in an incubator at 37°C with 5% CO2 environment, and use for cell transfection when the cell confluency is about 85%.

[0039] 1.2 Vector construction: According to the nematode sequence (ACCESSION NM_001028389) in GenBank, the codon-optimized FatI gene sequence for mammals was synthesized by chemical synthesis, and a sequence GTTGCGGCCGCCACC was added before the start codon ATG, which contained The Kozak sequence that is beneficial to gene expression, and the restriction site of HindIII a...

Embodiment 2

[0042] Embodiment 2: In this embodiment, the cell line detection and its fatty acid analysis are carried out according to the following steps:

[0043] 2.1 Preliminary detection of positive cells by genomic PCR: the cells left on the original culture plate during the cloning and amplification culture process continued to be cultured, and when the cells covered the culture plate, they were digested with trypsin to collect the cells, and the genome of the cells was extracted by the genome extraction kit, and RT-PCR Preliminary detection of whether the exogenous gene has entered the cell, the primers used are FatI-F: 5′-CAT GGT CGC TCA CTC CAG C-3′, FatI-R: 5′-GGT ACC TTA CTT AGC TTT GGC CTT TTC-3′; Reaction conditions: 94°C for 5 min, 94°C for 1 min, 60°C for 30 sec, 72°C for 1 min; 30 cycles, 72°C for 5 min; the positive cell lines detected by agarose gel electrophoresis were used for the next experiment.

[0044] 2.2 Southern Blot detection: The vector pCDNA3.1(+)-FatI constru...

Embodiment 3

[0047] Embodiment 3: This embodiment analyzes the optimization results as follows:

[0048] 3.1 Codon optimization, gene synthesis and construction of expression vector: According to the codon preference of mammals, codon optimization was carried out on the FatI gene sequence of nematodes; the CAI of the optimized sequence was increased from 0.65 to 0.81 (attached figure 2 ), it is generally believed that when the CAI is greater than 0.9, it is very conducive to gene expression, and a sequence of GTTGCGGCCGCCACC is added before the start codon ATG, which contains the Kozak sequence that is beneficial to gene expression, and HindIII is introduced in its upstream and downstream, respectively, The cut site of KpnI restriction endonuclease and the corresponding protective bases; the comparison between the optimized sequence and the original sequence is as attached figure 1 , the optimized sequence part is shown in red; the optimized sequence was synthesized by chemical synthesis...

Abstract

The invention relates to a codon optimized fatty acid desaturase (FatI for short) gene sequence and application thereof. A eukaryotic expression vector is constructed, and is transfected in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO), and a cell strain which stably expresses FatI is obtained through G418 screening; through genome polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Southern Blot determination, an exogenous gene is integrated into a genome, and the exogenous gene can be transcribed into mRNA in the cell; a n-3 / n-6 value of a cell of the successfully transfected CHO cell line is improved by 8.47 percent than that of a control cell; and therefore, the FatI gene sequence can promote n-6 fatty acid in the cell to be converted into n-3 fatty acid.
