Definitions

  • the present invention relates to 150 new essential genes and their gene products of Bacillus licheniformis and sufficiently similar genes and proteins as well as auf ⁇ building, insofar improved biotechnological production process by Mikro ⁇ organisms, as each of these genes is suitable as a selection marker.
  • the present invention is in the field of biotechnology, in particular the production of recyclables by fermentation of microorganisms which are capable of forming the valuable substances of interest.
  • microorganisms which are capable of forming the valuable substances of interest.
  • These include, for example, the production of low molecular weight compounds, for example of food supplements or pharmaceutically relevant compounds, or of proteins, for which, due to their diversity, there is again a large field of technical application.
  • the metabolic properties of the microorganisms in question are utilized and / or modified for the production of valuable substances;
  • cells are used which express the genes of the proteins of interest (so-called transgenes).
  • GMOs genetically modified organisms
  • Expression systems are developed and developed essentially on the basis of two fundamentally different genetic constructions.
  • the gene for the protein to be produced becomes the chromosome of the host organism integrated.
  • Such constructs are very stable without selection for the presence of an additional marker gene (see below).
  • a major disadvantage is that only one copy of the gene is present in the host and the integration of further copies to increase the product formation rate on the gene dose effect designed methodically very expensive. This prior art is briefly illustrated below.
  • European Patent EP 284126 B1 solves the problem of stable multiple integration by introducing into the cell multiple gene copies containing intervening endogenous and essential chromosomal DNA segments.
  • the patent application DD 277467 A1 discloses a process for the production of extracellular enzymes which is based on the stable, advantageously multiple integration of the genes coding for the enzyme of interest into the bacterial chromosome. Integration takes place via homologous areas. To control successful integration events, an erythromycin gene contained on the plasmid serves to inactivate upon successful integration.
  • the integration into the chromosome can take place via a single or double crossing-over via the gene for thymidylate synthetase.
  • the latter allows the control of this procedure, because in a simple crossing-over, the thy activity is preserved, while it is lost in a double crossing-over, that is, this auxotrophy is achieved.
  • a simple crossing-over in this particular system is associated with a resistance to the antibiotic trimethoprim, with a double the corresponding sensitivity.
  • the application WO 96/23073 A1 discloses a transposon-based system for integrating multiple copies of a gene of interest into the bacterial chromosome, which is characterized in that the marker gene of the plasmid is deleted by the integration and the resulting strains are thus free from a resistance are markers. Again, this marker requires a marker only to control the construction of the bacterial strain of interest.
  • the second approach to constructing producer strains is to transfer the gene of interest to an autonomously replicating element, for example a plasmid, and thereby transfer it into the host organism.
  • an autonomously replicating element for example a plasmid
  • the usually high number of plasmid copies per cell has an effect on the gene dosage effect.
  • a disadvantage is the fact that over the entire culture time a Selek ⁇ tion pressure must be exercised to keep the plasmids in the cells. Standard ⁇ this is done via the addition of antibiotics in the culture medium, while genes that confer resistance to the substances in question, are presented on the plasmids. Thus, only the cells are able to grow, which have the plasmids in sufficient numbers.
  • antibiotic resistance as a selection marker has increasingly come up against criticism in recent years.
  • the use of antibiotics is quite expensive, especially if the resistance is based on an enzyme degrading the antibiotic and therefore the substance in question must be supplied during the entire cultivation.
  • their widespread use in particular in other fields of technology, contributes to the spread of the resistance genes to other strains, even to pathological strains. This already leads to considerable difficulties, for example, in medical hygiene and in particular in the treatment of infectious diseases by so-called multi-resistant, human-pathogenic strains.
  • auxotrophy that is a targeted metabolic defect that makes the cells in question dependent on the supply of certain metabolic products.
  • Auxotrophic strains will then be paired with the transgene of interest to cure this auxotrophy. If lost, they would simultaneously lose their viability under appropriate culture conditions, resulting in the desired selection of the auxotrophic producer strains.
  • auxotrophies so far very problematic, since in industrial fermentation almost all necessary substrates are available in sufficient quantities and the cells in question can compensate for the lack of synthesis of a particular compound on the inclusion of this same compound from the nutrient medium ,
  • the application EP 251579 A2 offers the solution of using as host strains those which are deficient in terms of the thymidylate synthase gene essential for nucleotide metabolism. Accordingly, the gene can be made available for this function (thyA from Escherichia coli K12) via a vector and can cure the gene defect. If this vector additionally carries the gene for the protein of interest, an antibiotic-like selection of the producer cells occurs.
  • auxotrophic markers have so far only led to very sparse results in terms of the complex nutrient media generally used in industry. Because these usually contain numerous low molecular weight compounds such as nucleotides, vitamins or amino acids, over which such auxotrophies, that is, relatively simple metabolic defects are compensated. It would therefore be desirable to be able to select, which works in principle like an auxotrophy, but does not rely on such metabolic defects that are compensated by the commonly used complex nutrient media. It was therefore the task of developing further selection systems that are as easy to handle as the selection of an antibiotic, but do without expensive and possibly environmentally harmful substances. They should be applicable on an industrial scale. They should build on such genes, the absence of which can not be compensated for by impurities in industrial media.
  • this meant identifying essential genes and providing tools for the desired genetic modification by identifying the associated nucleotide sequences.
  • each of the 150 proteins found in the sequence listing for B.licheniformis including the respectively sufficiently homologous proteins; Further independent solutions to the problem are the associated nucleic acids, likewise including the respectively sufficiently homologous nucleic acids.
  • the respective nucleic acid and amino acid sequences are fully set forth in the Sequence Listing of the present application.
  • the said sub-aspect of the task for the development of such essential proteins for which there are technical applications due to their biochemical properties is also met.
  • the associated proteins can now be produced selectively via the nucleotide sequences provided according to the invention and are thus available to the relevant technical application options.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne 150 nouveaux gènes essentiels et leurs produits génétiques de Bacillus licheniformis, et des gènes et protéines analogues appropriés. Ces facteurs prennent en charge des processus vitaux respectivement élémentaires in vivo, par exemple la réplication (par ex. ADN-polymérase, hélicase ou gyrase), la transcription (par ex. ARN-polymérase), la biosynthèse protéique (protéines ribosomales, aminocyl-ARNt-synthétases, facteurs d'initiation et d'élongation), la sécrétion de protéines (par ex. translocase) ou le métabolisme énergétique. Un manquement de ces gènes est directement létal pour les cellules concernées, et ne peut pas être compensé par d'éventuels composés provenant du milieu nutritif. Les gènes associés peuvent ainsi être utilisés comme marqueurs de sélection. Il est possible d'établir des procédés de production biotechnologiques améliorés par des micro-organismes, dans la mesure où une sélection par l'intermédiaire de ces gènes peut s'effectuer sans antibiotique, et les composés de milieux nutritifs courants ne permettent pas de compensation.
