Embodiment 1

[0043] Example 1 Construction of pLD-Blunt plasmid vector, pLD-Blunt plasmid vector is shown by SEQ ID NO.28.

[0044] In the present invention, pLD-Blunt is the only cloning vector artificially constructed for placing genetic elements, and its construction process is as follows:

[0045](1) Select the pEASY-Blunt kit of full gold, take out 1 μL of pEASY-Blunt reagent, add 4 μL of water, react at 25°C for 5 minutes, transform Escherichia coli, pre-coat IPTG and X-gal on the plate, and use blue-white screening to obtain blue colonies.

[0046] (2) Insert the blue colony into LB-Amp liquid medium, culture overnight at 37°C, and extract the pEASY-Blunt empty plasmid vector.

[0047] (3) Use the primer pLD-Blunt1-F shown in SEQ ID NO.19 and the primer pLD-Blunt1-R shown in SEQ ID NO.20 as the upstream primer and downstream primer, and use the pEASY-Blunt empty plasmid vector as a template, The BsaI point mutation was introduced into the Amp resistance gene, and the main part of ...

Embodiment 2

[0052] Example 2 Construction of pRS425K plasmid vector, the sequence of pRS425K is shown in SEQ ID NO.29.

[0053] In the present invention, pRS425K is an artificially constructed cloning vector for placing the module tool sequence, and its construction process is as follows:

[0054] (1) Select the pEASY-Blunt kit of full gold, take out 1 μL of pEASY-Blunt reagent, add 4 μL of water, react at 25°C for 5 minutes, transform Escherichia coli, pre-coat IPTG and X-gal on the plate, and use blue-white screening to obtain blue colonies.

[0055] (2) Insert the blue colony into LB-Amp liquid medium, culture overnight at 37°C, and extract the plasmid, which is the pEASY-Blunt empty plasmid vector. At the same time, the Escherichia coli strain containing pRS425 was inoculated to extract the pRS425 empty plasmid vector.

[0056] (3) Using the primer pRS425K1-F shown in SEQ ID NO.23 and the primer pRS425K1-R shown in SEQ ID NO.24 as the upstream primer and downstream primer, and using...

Embodiment 3

[0061] Example 3 Constructing the functional module of the green precursor deoxychromoviridans for the synthesis of violacein

[0062] Violacein is a bacteriostatic compound derived from Chromobacterium violaceum. Violacein is synthesized by cells using tryptophan as a substrate through five enzyme reactions: VioA, VioB, VioE, VioD, and VioC. After only the first three steps, the cells synthesize a green product called deoxychromoviridans, which makes yeast colonies appear green.

[0063] Therefore, in this example, three strength functional modules were designed for the genes of the three enzymes VioA, VioB, and VioE. On this basis, different functional modules were used to co-transform yeast, and different modules were combined to obtain combined functional modules. Enables Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce deoxychromoviridans, making colonies green.

[0064] In this embodiment, VioA is represented by SEQ ID NO.1, VioB is represented by SEQ ID NO.2, and VioE is represent...

Abstract

The invention discloses a standardized, high-precision, and general-purpose functional module construction method, which includes the following steps: (1) Adding standardized sites to the source gene to form a genetic element, and connecting the genetic element to the plasmid pLD-Blunt to form a genetic (2) Get the gene element from the plasmid with the gene element and connect it to the following gap in the module tool plasmid: terminator 1-promoter-AATG-gap-TAAA-terminator 2 ; Construct plasmids with different functional modules; (3) Transfer different functional modules from plasmids with different functional modules, and co-transform S. The functional modules are stored in the plasmid; the present invention has versatility, standardization, high precision and free selectivity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of synthetic biology, in particular to a method for constructing functional modules. Background technique [0002] Functional modules play a crucial role in synthetic biology research. Artificial optimization and reconstruction of endogenous metabolic pathways, transformation of chassis cell genomes, rapid assembly of multiple exogenous genetic elements, and artificial design and construction of new life functions all rely on functional modules. Therefore, designing a set of standardized, high-precision, and general-purpose functional module construction and assembly methods, so that it can quickly and efficiently obtain the required modules, has become an urgent bottleneck technology for synthetic biology. [0003] The ideal construction method of functional modules urgently needed by synthetic biology should have the following salient features: 1) For any genetic element, no site pre-modification is required. 2) D...
