[Construction of an engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing endoglucanase efficiently].

Endoglucanase (EG) is an important component of cellulases and play an important role in cellulose degradation. However, its application is limited due to the low yield of endoglucanase from natural microorganisms. Efficient heterologous expression of endoglucanase is an effective way to solve this problem. To obtain the engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae for high-yield endoglucanase, endoglucanase gene was cloned from Clostridium cellulovorans, with a total length of 1 996 bp, encoding 440 amino acids, and the complete expression cassette (PαEGC) was constructed with the PGK promoter sequence from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, α-signal peptide sequence from pPIC9K plasmid and CYC1 terminator sequence from pSH65 plasmid by gene splicing by overlap extension PCR (SOE PCR), and the expression vector of endoglucanase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was constructed by rDNA integration. The relationship between copy number and protein expression was explored. Random multicopy expression of endoglucanase was performed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The copy number of endoglucanase was identified by Droplet Digital PCR and explore the relationship between copy number and protein expression.The engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae of endoglucanase with copy numbers of 1, 3, 4, 7, 9, 11, 15, 16, 19, 21, 22 and 23 were obtained by rDNA integration, respectively. The results showed that when the copy number was 15, the enzyme activity was the highest, namely 351 U/mL. The engineered strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for endoglucanase was successfully constructed, which can provide reference for the heterologous expression of other industrial enzymes.
