Abstract

A vector that drives the expression of the reporter gusA gene in both Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactococcus lactis was constructed in this study. This vector contained a newly characterized heat shock promoter (Phsp), amplified from an Enterococcus faecium plasmid, pAR6. Functionality and characterization of this promoter was initially performed by cloning Phsp into pNZ8008, a commercial lactococcal plasmid used for screening of putative promoters which utilizes gusA as a reporter. It was observed that Phsp was induced under heat, salinity and alkaline stresses or a combination of all three stresses. The newly characterized Phsp promoter was then used to construct a novel Lactobacillus vector, pAR1801 and its ability to express the gusA under stress-induced conditions was reproducible in both Lb. plantarum Pa21 and L. lactis M4 hosts.

摘要

本研究构建了一种能在植物乳杆菌和乳酸乳球菌中驱动报告基因gusA表达的载体。该载体包含一个新鉴定的热休克启动子（Phsp），它是从粪肠球菌质粒pAR6中扩增得到的。该启动子的功能和特性最初是通过将Phsp克隆到pNZ8008中来进行研究的，pNZ8008是一种用于筛选假定启动子的商业乳球菌质粒，它利用gusA作为报告基因。结果发现，Phsp在热、盐和碱性胁迫或这三种胁迫的组合下被诱导。然后，利用新鉴定的Phsp启动子构建了一种新型的植物乳杆菌载体pAR1801，其在胁迫诱导条件下表达gusA的能力在植物乳杆菌Pa21和乳酸乳球菌M4宿主中均可重现。
