| − | <h4>Human Practices,Collaboration&Society:</h4>
| |
| − | <p>We learned about nitrogenous fertilizer production status in quo and the advancement of China’s nitrogenous fertilizer industry. In order to better understand the actual demand of nitrogenous fertilizer in agriculture, we decided to visit farmers in Xiaohe Bei Village.<br />
| |
| − | Having learned of the dearth of efficient and affordable fertilizer, we spared no effort to seek a cost effective nitrogen fixation method. Inspired by our previous work(Nanjing-China 2016), we creatively proposed an idea of “whole-cell photocatalytic nitrogen fixation”.<br />
| |
| − | We helped Nanjing Forestry University to build their team.<br />
| |
| − | We held conferences with Nanjing Agricultural University and China Pharmaceutical University to share experiences of being IGEMers. </p>

| |
| − | <h4>Technical works Wet&Dry labs:</h4>
| |
| − | <p>Wet Lab:Having confirmed the theme of our project, we began to work on our design. We read latest papers about biological nitrogen fixation, focused on the method sections and discussed what we didn’t understand in details. During the last week of this month, we worked out the first version of our design.<br />
| |
| − | Dry lab:We communicated and exchanged ideas frequently in order to identify possible modeling directions which could provide useful guidance to our wet experiments. Later we proposed a few directions. The idea of developing homologous modeling of nitrogenase didn’t work successfully because we couldn’t get access to relevant software.</p>

Besides,based on our Human Practice, we modified our design by adding Cd2+ toxicity test to it.</p>

| − | <h2>Protocol</h2>
| |
| − | <h3>Plasmids and Bacterial Strains.</h3><p> The bacterial strains, plasmids and primers used in this study are all listed in Table 1. <em>Escherichia coli</em>JM109</a> was purchased from Takara and designated EJ. A high-copy plasmid, pUC57-<em>nif</em> (pMB1 <em>ori</em>), harboring the minimal nitrogen fixation gene cluster (<em>nif</em>) of <em>Paenibacillus polymyxa</em> CR1 was chemically synthesized and then transformed into <em>E. coli</em> JM109, and the resulting recombinant was designated EJN. For construction of the second plasmid, pJQ200SK <em>OmpA/PbrR</em> (with a compatible p15A <em>ori</em>), a lab store plasmid pBAD24-<em>OmpA/PbrR</em> was used as the template to PCR-amplify <em>OmpA/PbrR</em> with P200F and P200R primers. After confirmation by sequencing, the PCR product was digested with <em>Kpn</em> I and <em>Hind</em> III and then insert into pJQ200SK to yield pJQ200SK-<em>OmpA/PbrR</em>. EJN transformed with pJQ200SK-<em>OmpA/PbrR</em> was selected from LB agar plates containing appropriate antibiotics, and the resulting strain was designated EJNC.</p>
| |
| − | <h3>Culture Conditions.</h3>
| |
| − | <p>LB broth for <em>E. coli</em> JM109 growth contained 10g/L tryptone, 10 g/L NaCl, and 5 g/L yeast extract. KPM minimal medium was adopted for all nitrogen fixation assays and contained per liter 1040 mg Na<sub>2</sub>HPO<sub>4</sub>, 3400 mg KH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub>, 26 mg CaCl<sub>2</sub>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, 30 mg MgSO<sub>4</sub>, 7.5 mg Na<sub>2</sub>MoO<sub>4</sub>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, 0.3mg MnSO<sub>4</sub>, 8000 mg glucose, 500 mg casein hydrolysate, 36 mg ferric citrate, 10 mg para-aminobenzoic acid, 5 mg biotin, and 1 mg vitamin B1, supplied with 10 mM (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> (KPM-HN) for pregrowth or 10 mM glutamate (KPM-LN) for nitrogenase activity assays. Antibiotics were supplemented as required at the following concentrations: 100 μg/mL of ampicillin, and 20 μg/mL of gentamycin. </p>
| |
| − | <h3>Quantitative Real-time PCR. </h3>
| |
| − | <p>After harvesting bacteria from LB medium, purification of total RNA was performed using RNAiso Plus reagent (TaKaRa, Japan) following the protocol described by the manufacturer. One microgram of qualified total RNA was subjected to reverse transcription with a PrimeScript RT reagent Kit with gDNA Eraser per the manufacturer’s instructions (TaKaRa, Japan). qRT-PCR of the resulting cDNA was performed with gene-specific primers (Table 1) on a CFX Connect Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad, USA) with a SYBR Premix Ex Taq (Tli RNaseH Plus) Kit (TaKaRa, Japan). Standard curves of cDNA dilutions were used to determine the PCR efficiency. An expression data analysis was performed by the Pfaffl method of relative quantification using CFX Manager 3.1 software (Bio-Rad, USA).</p>
| |
| − | <h3>Nitrogenase Activity Assay.</h3>
| |
| − | <p>The C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub> reduction method was used to assay nitrogenase activity. EJNC was initially grown overnight in KPM-HN medium and then diluted in 2 mL KPM-LN medium in 20 mL sealed tube to a final OD600 of about 0.3. Air in the tubes was repeatedly evacuated and replaced with argon. After incubation at 37 °C for 6 to 8 h, 2 mL C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub> was injected. 1 mL of gas was sampled from the gas phase 16 h later and analyzed with a GC-7890B (Agilent, USA) gas chromatograph after appropriate 10-fold serially dilution with nitrogen. Both EJ and EJN severed as controls. </p>
| |
| − | <h3>ICP-MS(Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) measurement of Cd<sup>2+</sup> adsorption.</h3>
| |
| − | <p><em>Escherichia coli</em> BL21 containing <em>OmpA-PbrR</em>-PJQ200SK (pBAD33) plasmid was cultured in LB medium to an OD<sub>600</sub> of 0.4-0.6. Arabinose and CdCl<sub>2</sub> were added to the medium to a final arabinose concentration of 40 μM and a final Cd<sup>2+</sup> concentration of 100 μM, to induce the formation of CdS nano semiconductors.From the start of the induction, 5 ml of the bacterial solution was taken from the culture every 6 hours (sampling to 24 hours), centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 2 minutes, and washed three times with water to remove the medium involved in the bacterial surface.The washed bacteria were resuspended in 5 ml of water. OD<sub>600</sub> was measured, and the bacteria were collected by centrifugation.3 ml of concentrated nitric acid was added and the mixture was digested overnight at 90 °C.The Cd<sup>2+</sup> content in the sample was measured using ICP-MS.</p>
| |
| − | <h3>Cd<sup>2+</sup> toxicity test.</h3><p>Multiple groups of LB medium were prepared, and arabinose with a final concentration of 40 μM and different amounts of CdCl<sub>2</sub> were added to the medium to form a Cd<sup>2+</sup> gradient of 0,150 μM, 300 μM, 600 μM, and 1000 μM.<em>E. coli</em> BL21 containing the <em>OmpA-PbrR</em>-PJQ200SK (pBAD33) plasmid and plasmid-free <em>E. coli</em> BL21 (control) were cultured in different media.The OD<sub>600</sub> value was measured every 2 hours and measured for 12 hours.</p>
| |
| − | <h3>Transmission electron microscopy with energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (TEM-EDX).</h3><p>After the Cd<sup>2+</sup> adsorption induction was completed, the bacteria were collected by centrifugation and resuspended in ultrapure water. Samples were sent for TEM image acquisition.The thick carbon film (20 to 30 nm) on the copper grid was immersed in the bacteria solution for 1 second before imaging, dried under atmospheric conditions, and then imaged using TEM. At the same time, the EDX system (EDAX, AMETEK) was attached to the microscope for elemental analysis. All TEM images were imaged using a JEOL JEM-2100 electron microscope at an acceleration bias of 200 kV.</p>
| |
| − | <h3>Characterization of biologically precipitated CdS nanoparticles</h3>
| |
| − | <p>The photocatalytic MV<sup>2+</sup> reduction assay was performed using a 10-mm quartz cuvette with a cap and a light source(350-W Xe lamp).<em> E.coli </em>cells containing biosynthesized CdS nanoparticles were harvested from LB medium by centrifugation (4000 rpm for 10 min). The reaction system consisted of the same amounts of different semiconductors [TiO<sub>2</sub> anatase (<em>10</em>) and synthesized free CdS nanoparticles (<em>29</em>)] and 3ml of 100 mM tris-HCl(PH 7), 150mM NaCl, 5% glycerol, 100mM ascorbic acid, and 5mM MV<sup>2+</sup> in the quartz cuvette. O<sub>2</sub> was removed by bubbling N<sub>2</sub> into the solution for 30 min. The reaction was initiated by light irradiation and stopped by centrifugation and separation of <em>E.coli</em>-CdS nanoparticles from the MV buffer. The absorption spectra were immediately measured after centrifugation (1000<em>g</em> for 1 min). The amount of reduced MV<sup>2+</sup>(MV<sup>+</sup>) that formed was calculated by monitoring the OD<sub>605</sub> using the molar conversion coefficient ɛ=1.3 × 10<sup>4</sup> M<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-1</sup>.</p>
