Trametessp.AH28-2漆酶A的诱导合成及其基因5′-端调控区的克隆与分析

Inducing Synthesis of LacA from Trametes sp. AH28-2 and Cloning & Analysis of 5′-terminal Sequence of Transcription Control of the Gene

Trametessp.AH28_2漆酶同工酶的合成需要铜离子的存在,较高浓度的Cu2+有利于漆酶合成。在以葡萄糖为碳源补加0·5mmol/LCu2+的培养基中生长时,发酵液漆酶活性为44·3u/L,同时补加4·0mmol/L邻甲苯胺时,漆酶酶活提高到71·0u/L;而在补加Cu2+和邻甲苯胺的纤维二糖培养基中,酶活上升至2584u/L,为葡萄糖培养基的36·4倍。邻甲苯胺和铜离子诱导产生的漆酶同工酶组分,均为漆酶A(LacA)。竞争性RT_PCR分析表明,漆酶A基因(lacA)转录本的累积伴随有发酵液漆酶活性的增加,邻甲苯胺对lacA的调控发生在转录水平。lacA结构基因长2110bp,含有10个内含子;lacA的cDNA序列为1560bp,编码520aa的漆酶蛋白,其氨基酸序列与其它真菌漆酶具有较高的相似性。采用改进的反向PCR技术,扩增得到的lacA5′_端调控区长1881bp,分析表明,该区域上分布有1个TATA框、7个CAAT框和多个潜在的顺式作用元件序列位点,包括5个MRE元件、9个CreA结合位点、4个XRE元件、2个STRE元件和7个氮因子调控位点等。这些序列位点的存在部分地对应了菌株摇瓶发酵条件下lacA的表达规律。

Copper ion was necessary for the transcription of all laccase isozyme genes from Trametes sp. AH28-2, with higher concentrations of Cu~ 2+ (1～2 mmol/L) being more favorable to the synthesis of laccase. In the glucose media containing 0.5 mmol/L Cu~ 2+, the laccase activity of the supernate was rather low (44.3 u/L) and had an increase of 60.3% (71.0 u/L) when 4.0 mmol/L o-toluidine was added. Moreover, the activity reached up to 2584 u/L as the glucose was replaced by cellobiose. And Native-PAGE showed that LacA was the main laccase component if fungus was induced by o-toluidine or copper ions. It had been demonstrated by quantitative RT-PCR that the regulation of lacA expression, induced by o-toluidine, occurred at the transcriptional level, with the accumulation of mRNA transcripts being accompanied by the increase of laccase activity of the culture fluid. In addition, the structural gene of lacA interrupted by 10 introns was 2110 bp in length and the corresponding cDNA sequence was 1560 bp encoding a 520 aa protein, which had high similarities with other laccases from basidiomycetes. Furthermore, a length of 1881 bp of 5′-terminal sequence of transcription control of lacA, amplified by the improved inverse PCR, contained a TATA box, seven CAAT boxes as well as a number of putative cis-acting elements important for its expression, including five MREs, nine CreA-binding sites, four XREs, two STREs and seven nitrogen factor binding sites. The existence of these elements was well in agreement with the data obtained from Trametes sp. AH28-2 shaken-flask cultures.
