Embodiment 1

[0078] according to figure 1 The β-carotene biosynthesis pathway in Yarrowia lipolytica is shown, and the recombinant bacteria producing β-carotene is constructed, and the specific construction method is as follows:

[0079] 1. Knockout of ku70 gene in Yarrowia lipolytica

[0080] Using the gene of Yarrowia lipolytica Po1f as the template, the primers were designed according to the principle of overlapping extension PCR primer design, using primers ku70-up-F and ku70-up-R, the upstream homology arm of ku70 was amplified by fidelity enzyme pfu PCR (800bp), PCR amplification system: 5×FastPfu Buffer 10μL, ku70-up-F (10μM) 1μL, ku70-up-R (10μM) 1μL, 2.5mM dNTPs 4μL, Po1f gene 1μL, FastPfu DNA Polymerase 1μL, ddH 2 O 32μL; using primers ku70-down-F and ku70-down-R, PCR amplification of the downstream homology arm (800bp) of ku70 with fidelity enzyme pfu, PCR amplification system: 5×FastPfu Buffer 10μL, ku70-down -F (10μM) 1μL, ku70-down-R (10μM) 1μL, 2.5mM dNTPs 4μL, Po1f gene 1...

Abstract

The invention discloses recombinant bacteria used for producing beta-carotene and a construction method utilizing a Crispr-Cas9 technology. A Ku70 gene is subjected to knockout from yarrowia lipolytica, and then phytoene synthase / lycopene cyclase (carRA), phytoene desaturase (carB), geranyl pyrophosphate synthetase (GGS1) and a 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaryl coenzyme A reductase (tHMG) gene take snfas a target point and are integrated in a yarrowia lipolytica gene set after knockout of the ku70 gene, wherein the phytoene synthase / lycopene cyclase (carRA) and phytoene desaturase (carB) are from blakeslea trispora, and the geranyl pyrophosphate synthetase (GGS1) and the 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaryl coenzyme A reductase (tHMG) gene are from the yarrowia lipolytica; the Crispr-Cas9 technology isutilized for regulating the copy number of the carRA, the carRA, the GGS1 and the tHMG, and the recombinant bacteria capable of producing the high-yield beta-carotene is constructed. After the recombinant bacteria is fermented, cultured, extracted and separated, the content of the beta-carotene can reach the dry cell weight of 35 mg / g, and the bacterial strain stability is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metabolic engineering and combinatorial biology, and in particular relates to a method for constructing a recombinant bacterium that utilizes Crispr-Cas9 technology to improve the yield of beta-carotene. Background technique [0002] β-Carotene is the most common and stable carotenoid in nature, and has antioxidant function due to the existence of a large number of double bonds in its structure. In the human body, β-carotene is mainly used as a precursor of vitamin A (pro-vitamin A), and is a Class A nutritional food fortifier recognized by the WHO and FAO Food Additives Joint Expert Committee. Studies have shown that beta-carotene has the functions of preventing cancer, anti-tumor and enhancing human immune function. In addition, β-carotene can act as an antioxidant for low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and the oxidation of LDL is closely related to the development of atherosclerosis, so supplementation of...
