DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to Bacillus brevis.
The present invention relates to a plasmid that uses Bacillus brevis as a host, and specifically relates to a plasmid derived from Bacillus brevis having the restriction enzyme cleavage pattern shown in FIG. Bacillus isolated from soil by Udaka
Brevis 47 secretes as much as 12 g of protein into the medium under optimal culture conditions (S. Udaka, Agr. Biol.
Chem. 40 ; 523-528 (1976), S., Miyashiro, H.
Enei, K.Takanami, Y.Hirose, T.Tsuchida
and S.Udaka, Agr.Biol.Chem. 44 ; 2297−2303
(1980)). If we could utilize this protein secretion ability of Bacillus brevis47 to accumulate in the medium a large amount of the product of a heterologous useful gene introduced into Bacillus brevis47 using recombinant DNA techniques,
Its practical value is great. The present invention relates to a low copy number plasmid that is stably maintained in Bacillus brevis 47. Plasmids with low copy numbers are generally advantageous when cloning genes for which a large increase in copy number would be lethal to the host, but their retention requires the addition of selective agents to the culture medium. is often necessary. The plasmid of the present invention is characterized in that it is very stably maintained in Bacillus brevis 47 despite its low copy number. The discovery, purification, and elucidation of the properties of this pyrasmid were carried out as follows. 1 Isolation of plasmid pWT481 12 strains of bacteria related to Bacillus brevis 47 (FERM P-7224) were grown in T2 medium (1% peptone, 0.5% meat extract, 0.2% yeast extract, 1% glycose, PH7)
After growing to the stationary phase by shaking at 37℃ using
HCBirnboim and J.Doiy, Nucleic Acids
Res., 7; 1513-1523 (1979)). As a result, Bacillus brevis 481 (FERM BP−1224) (S. Udaka, Agr.
Biol. Chem. 40 ; 523-528 (1976)), and named it pWT481. 2 Purification of plasmid pWT481 DNA From Bacillus brevis 481 grown to stationary phase by shaking at 37°C using T2 medium, the method of Tanaka et al. (T.Tanaka, N.Kuroda and K.
Sakaguchi, J. Bacteriol. 129 ; 1487−1494
(1977)) pure pWT481 DNA approx.
100 μg was obtained. As a result of analysis using restriction enzymes, pWT481 has a molecular weight of 1.6×10 6 as shown in Figure 1.
It was found to be a relatively small Dalton plasmid with three Hind, two EcoR I and one Bg1 restriction sites. 3 Introduction of pWT481 into Bacillus brevis 47 and stability test Since pWT481 does not have a selection marker, pWT481 was introduced into Bacillus brevis 47 by the following indirect method. Plasmid PHW1 with pWT481 DNA (1 μg) and erythromycin resistance gene
(S. Horinouchi & B. Weisbium, J. Bacteriol.
150, 804-814 (1982)) and the Tris-REG method (W. Takahashi, H.
Yamagata, K. Yamaguchi, N. Tsukagoshi
and S. Udaka, J. Bacteriol. 156 , 1130−1134
(1983)) was used to transform Bacillus brevis 47. T 2 agar medium containing erythromycin (10 μg/ml) (solid medium made by adding 1.5% agar to T 2 medium)
The transformed strain grown above at 37°C was shaken at 37°C in T2 medium containing erythromycin (10 μg/ml).
The cells were grown to stationary phase and the plasmids were assayed by the method of Birnboim and Doly (described above). Approximately one-tenth of the transformed strains examined contained pWT481 at the same time as PHW1.
It was found that it held. These transformants were then incubated at 37°C in T2 medium and T2 medium containing erythromycin (10 μg/ml).
After being subcultured for 50 generations,
Plasmids were extracted and analyzed by the method of Birnboim and Doly. Agarose gel electrophoresis of plasmids (PASharp, B. Sugden and J. Sambrook,
As a result of analysis by Biochemistry. 12 ; 3055-3063 (1973)), both plasmids were stably retained in medium supplemented with erythromycin, but PHW1 was retained stably in T2 medium without erythromycin.
was quickly lost, and only PHT481 was stably retained. As described above, plasmid pWT481 discovered in Bacillus brevis 481 was found to be a low-copy plasmid that replicates in Bacillus brevis 47 and is stably maintained even under culture conditions without selective drugs. . This plasmid contains a known drug resistance gene, such as the erythromycin resistance gene of PHW1 (described above) or
Neomycin resistance gene (TJ) on pUB110
Giyczan, S. Contente and D. Dubnau, J.
Bacteriol. 134 ; 318-329 (1978)), etc.
It is possible to create plasmids that allow direct selection of transformants. Plasmid PHY481 was created by introducing the erythromycin resistance gene on PHW1 into pWT481 as detailed in Example 1.
(Figure 2) allows selection of transformants using erythromycin. As shown in Figure 3, Bacillus brevis47
It was found that PHY481 introduced into pWT481 was stably maintained through more than 50 generations in T2 medium without addition of erythromycin, and its copy number was low. pWT481 and PH
Although it is expected that the heterologous genes cloned on Y481 will be more stably retained in Bacillus brevis47 than the heterologous genes cloned on other plasmids due to the nature of these plasmids, such implementation As an example, the α-amylase gene of Bacillus megaterium was cloned onto PHY481 (FIG. 4) and its stability in Bacillus brevis 47 was tested. As shown in Figure 4, plasmid PHY482, which was created by introducing the α-amylase gene of Bacillus megaterium into PHY481, contains the same gene.
Plasmid pKN11 created by introducing it into PHW1
(Fig. 4) was much more stably retained in Bacillus brevis47. The above results indicate that the plasmid pWT481 of this invention
This shows the usefulness of this vector as a cloning vector in Bacillus brevis47. Next, examples of the present invention will be shown. Example 1 Introduction of erythromycin resistance gene into pWT481 PHW1 DNA was cut with Hpa and Taq I, and a 1.2 Kb fragment containing the erythromycin resistance gene was isolated from the resulting DNA fragments. Both ends of this fragment were blunt-ended using T4 DNA polymerase, Hind linkers were attached, and Hind
This was ligated to pWT481 DNA partially cut with T4 ligase (Fig. 2). Bacillus brevis 47 was transformed using this DNA to obtain an erythromycin-resistant transformant. Approximately 25% of these transformed strains retained the plasmid stably even in T2 medium without erythromycin. A plasmid was purified from one of these transformed strains by the method of Tanaka et al. (described above), and PH
It was named Y481. Figure 2 shows the restriction map of PHY481. Next, Bacillus brevis with PHY481
47 strains were subcultured at 37°C in T2 medium without erythromycin, and aliquots were taken at each time, appropriately diluted, and spread on T2 agar medium. The resulting colonies were replicated onto a T2 agar medium containing erythromycin (10 μg/ml), and the retention rate of the plasmid was measured (Figure 3). It was found that PHY481 was stably maintained through more than 50 generations of subculture under these conditions (plasmid retention rate of more than 95%). On the other hand, in Bacillus brevis 47 containing PHW1, which was used as a control, more than 99% of the cells lost the plasmid after 50 generations of culture under these conditions (Figure 3).

Among the transformed strains grown on 01% leucine, 1.5% agar), one strain whose periphery of the colony became transparent by reaction with iodine starch was obtained. A plasmid was purified from this strain by the method of Tanaka et al. (described above) and named pKN1. Analysis using restriction enzymes revealed that the 2.3Kb on pKN1
It was shown that the amylase gene was present on the Hind fragment (Fig. 4). 2. Introduction of Bacillus megaterium α-amylase gene into PHY481 pKN1 was cut with Hind, mixed with pHY481 DNA partially cut with Hind, ligated with T4 ligase, and used for transformation of Bacillus brevis47. (Figure 4). Among the transformed strains grown on T2 agar medium supplemented with erythromycin (10 μg/ml) and soluble starch (0.3%), a strain in which the periphery of the colony became transparent was obtained by reaction with iodine starch.

At each time take a portion and dilute it with soluble starch (0.3
%) on T2 agar medium. Plasmid retention was measured by replicating the resulting colonies onto a T2 agar medium containing erythromycin (10 μg/ml) and by iodostarch reaction. As shown in Figure 5, pKN11 is lost from more than 99% of cells (retention rate less than 1%) after 30 generations of culture under these conditions, whereas pKN11 is lost from more than 99% of cells (retention rate less than 1%);
Y482 was retained in approximately 50% of cells even after 50 generations of culture. PHY482 is Bacillus brevis 47/PHY482 (FERM P-7535)
