Embodiment 1

[0021] Example 1: Cryptococcus terrestris ( C . humicolus ) Cloning and identification of CaM gene of BSLL1-1 strain

[0022] A strain of Cryptococcus terrestris with high resistance to aluminum ions isolated from the acidic soil in the rhizosphere of tea gardens around Longling County, Baoshan City, Yunnan Province ( C . humicolus ) BSLL1-1 strain, collect about 0.1g of bacterial material, extract 500μg of total RNA using TRIzoL kit (Invitrogen), and then use PoylATract mRNA Isolation systems kit (Pormega) for mRNA isolation. The aluminum-treated Cryptococcus terrestris was used as the test method, and the aluminum-treated Cryptococcus terrestris was used as the subtractive method to construct a forward SSH cDNA library of Cryptococcus terrestris.

[0023] 1. Synthesis of the first strand of cDNA

[0024] Take 2μg of mRNA from the test recipe and the subtracted recipe respectively, and use AMV reverse transcriptase to reverse transcribe the mRNA into the first strand of cDNA. Th...

[0071] Example 2: Heterologous expression of CaM protein

[0072] In order to facilitate the construction of expression vectors, specific primers are designed according to the nucleotide sequence and introduced at the 5'ends of the upstream and downstream primers respectively Eco RI and Xho I restriction site, the primer sequence is as follows: forward primer CaM-F: 5’-CG GAATTC ATGGCGGAGCAGCTGACCAAG-3’ (underlined Eco RI restriction site), reverse primer CaM-R: 5’-GGC CTCGAG TTACTTGGCC ATCATCATGGTAAC -3’ (underlined Xho I restriction site). The cDNA of Cryptococcus terrestris was used as a template to amplify the CaM gene fragment. The PCR reaction conditions were as follows: pre-denaturation at 94°C for 3 minutes, followed by 30 cycles of denaturation at 94°C for 30s, annealing at 68°C for 30s, and extension at 72°C for 45s, and a reaction at 72°C for 10 minutes at the end of the cycle. The PCR product of the CaM gene was subcloned into the pMD18-T vector. The obtained T...

[0075] Example 3: Construction and detection of CaM transgenic yeast

[0076] use Eco RI and Xho I digested and sequenced the correct pMD-18T-CaM plasmid, and recovered the target gene CaM fragment. use Eco RI and Xho I digest the yeast expression vector plasmid pYES3 / CT, recover the linear vector pYES3 / CT fragment, and then ligate the two to obtain the pYES3 / CT-CaM plasmid. The pYES3 / CT-CaM plasmid was digested with double enzymes to obtain a band of the target fragment size ( figure 2 A), indicating that the target gene is successfully connected to the yeast expression vector. The pYES3 / CT-CaM plasmid carrying the CaM gene was electroporated into Saccharomyces cerevisiae INVSc1 competent cells. Long on SD-Trp plate for 2-3 days, pick a single colony, culture overnight at 30°C, collect the bacteria and extract the total protein, use CaM antibody for Western blotting detection, the target protein band can be detected in the transgenic yeast strain ( figure 2 B), indicati...

Abstract

The invention discloses a calmodulin gene. The calmodulin gene is cloned in a cryptococcus humicolus BSLL1-1 bacterial strain, wherein the nucleotide sequence of the calmodulin gene is as shown in SEQ ID NO:1; a protein with an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2 is encoded by the gene; the protein is expressed in escherichia coli and the gene is further successfully expressed in saccharomyces cerevisiae. The aluminum resistance of the saccharomyces cerevisiae is increased due to the gene; genetically engineered bacteria can adsorb (or absorb) activated aluminum in a culture medium; and the genetically engineered bacterial strain of the saccharomyces cerevisiae has the application potential of reducing the activated aluminum content in acid soil.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, and specifically relates to an aluminum-resistant gene encoding calmodulin of Cryptococcus terrestris, a nucleotide sequence and an amino acid sequence, and heterologous expression of an aluminum-resistant protein, and relates to a recombinant plasmid containing the gene and expression The engineering strains of the aluminum resistance gene, their preparation and expression methods, and their application of active aluminum in the adsorption environment. Background technique [0002] Acidic soils are widespread in the world, of which the arable area is 179 million hm 2 . The distribution of acidic soil in my country covers 14 provinces and regions, accounting for about 21% of the country's cultivated land (Xiong Yi and Li Qingkui, 1987). Excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer is the main cause of soil acidification in farmland. In addition, the acid rain caused by the developmen...
