     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to the field of polypeptides, in particular to a polypeptide having epoxy group-removing catalytic activity, a nucleic acid encoding the polypeptide and use thereof. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Trichothecene mycotoxins have a basic chemical structure of sesquiterpene, and are also called 12,13-epoxytrichothecenes as an epoxy group is formed between the 12-position carbon and the 13-position carbon. Since the 1970s, scientific researchers have proved that the epoxy group of trichothecene mycotoxins is the main group as the source of toxicity. At present, trichothecene mycotoxin derivatives with the epoxy group removed can be chemically synthesized in vitro under highly alkaline conditions; however, this process is hardly applied in industry due to harsh reaction conditions and low efficiency. In addition, several anaerobic bacteria have been isolated from animal gut microbes that can detoxify trichothecene mycotoxins; however, the mechanism of action is unclear, and practical industrial applications have been greatly limited due to the dependence on anaerobic conditions. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the inventor provides a polypeptide having epoxy group-removing catalytic activity, which is capable of catalyzing a reaction between an epoxy group of a trichothecene mycotoxin and glutathione (abbreviated as GSH) under mild conditions to produce a non-toxic and harmless glutathionylated derivative, thereby achieving detoxification of the trichothecene mycotoxin. The present invention has been accomplished based at least in part on this, and specifically, the present invention comprises the following contents. 
     A first aspect of the present invention provides an isolated polypeptide having epoxy group-removing catalytic activity, which is capable of catalyzing a reaction between a trichothecene mycotoxin and GSH in a PBS buffer at a temperature of 15° C. to 35° C. to remove an epoxy group and produce a glutathionylated derivative. Here, although the reaction temperature of 15° C. to 35° C. is defined, it is only to characterize or identify that the polypeptide has epoxy group-removing catalytic activity under this condition, and it does not mean that the polypeptide of the present invention does not have epoxy group-removing catalytic activity at a temperature below 15° C. or above 35° C. In fact, the conditions for the catalytic reaction of the active polypeptide of the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned temperatures.

     Herein, the term “active polypeptide” refers to a polypeptide having catalytic activity of de-epoxidase, i.e., an active polypeptide that converts an epoxy group into another group or removes the epoxy group. It is also sometimes referred to herein as an “enzyme”. 
     Herein, the term “sequence identity” refers to the degree to which sequences are identical on a nucleotide-by-nucleotide basis or on an amino acid-by-amino acid basis within a comparison window. Thus, the percent sequence identity can be calculated by comparing the two optimally aligned sequences in a comparison window, determining the number of positions where the same nucleic acid base or the same amino acid residue occurs in the two sequences to obtain a number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the comparison window (i.e., window size), and multiplying the result by 100 to obtain the percent sequence identity. 
     Herein, the calculation of sequence identity or sequence similarity (used interchangeably herein) between two sequences is performed by the following method. To determine the percent identity of two amino acid sequences or two nucleic acid sequences, the sequences are aligned for optimal comparison purposes (for example, gaps can be introduced in one or both of the first and second amino acid or nucleic acid sequences for optimal alignment, and non-homologous sequences can not be taken into consideration for comparison purposes). In certain embodiments, the length of the reference sequence aligned for comparison purposes is at least 30%, preferably at least 40%, more preferably at least 50%, still preferably at least 70%, 80% and 90%, even 100% of the entire length of the reference sequence. The amino acid residues or nucleotides at corresponding amino acid positions or nucleotide positions are then compared. When a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same amino acid residue or nucleotide as the corresponding position in the second sequence, the molecules are identical at that position. The percent identity between two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared by the sequences, where the number of gaps and the length of each of gaps which needs to be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences are taken into account. Sequence comparison and determination of percent identity between two sequences can be accomplished using mathematical algorithms. The percent identity between two amino acid sequences or between two nucleotide sequences can be determined using the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at http://www.gcg.com) or the ALIGN program (Version 2.0). 
     Herein, for the term “amino acid at position x” or similar expressions, the amino acid sequence of the de-epoxidase derived from  Thinopyrum ponticum  is taken as a position reference, that is, the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 is used as a position reference, unless explicitly specified otherwise. Similarly, for the term “base at position y” or similar expressions, the base sequence of the de-epoxidase gene derived from  Thinopyrum ponticum  is taken as a position reference, that is, the base sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 36 is used as a position reference, unless explicitly specified otherwise. 
     Herein, the term “trichothecene mycotoxin” or “trichothecene” refers to a generic term for a class of compounds which have a basic chemical structure of sesquiterpene, and in which an epoxy group is formed between the 12-position carbon and the 13-position carbon. Preferably, the trichothecene mycotoxin has a structure shown in the following general formula (II):

     PCR amplification was performed using plasmid pMD19-T-FTCD as a template. The amplification product was detected by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, and a target fragment was recovered by cutting the gel; the target fragment and pET28a vector were digested by double enzymes, NcoI and BamHI, respectively, followed by gel recovery and ligation with T4 ligase; the ligation product was transformed into  Escherichia coli  DH5a, and colony PCR and double digestion identification were performed to obtain a target gene of about 900 bp and pET28a vector backbone of about 5,000 bp. Further sequencing was performed to verify that the sequence and the reading frame of the recombinant expression vector pET28a-FTCD were correct. 
     1.2.2 Induced Expression of Polypeptides 
     The recombinant expression vector plasmid pET28a-FTCD was transformed into the competent cells of  Escherichia coli  expression strain BL21(DE3); after PCR detection, the positive monoclones on transformation plates were picked and inoculated into test tubes containing 50 μg/mL Kana in 3 mL of LB liquid medium, and shaken at 37° C. at 220 r/min overnight. The next day, the culture was inoculated into a Kana LB liquid medium and shaken until the OD600 of the bacterial cells was 0.6 to 0.8. 1 mL of the culture was taken out and centrifuged at room temperature for 2 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the bacterial pellet was resuspended in 100 μl of 1× loading buffer. IPTG was added to the remaining culture to a final concentration of 0.5 mM, and the fusion protein was induced to express by shaking at 37° C. at 220 r/min for 4 h. 1 mL of the culture was taken out and centrifuged at 10,000 r/min for 2 min at room temperature, the supernatant was discarded, and the bacterial pellet was resuspended in 100 μl of 1× loading buffer. The remaining culture was centrifuged at 4,000 r/min for 10 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the bacterial pellet was resuspended in PBS; after the resuspension solution was treated by ultrasonication, the supernatant and the pellet were taken and added to the loading buffer to resuspend respectively.

The results of SDS-PAGE electrophoresis showed that a polypeptide in the form of soluble protein was obtained, with a molecular weight of about 33 kDa, and the purified protein had a single band, indicating that the purification effect was good (see  FIG.  1   ). 
     II. Establishment of an In Vitro Enzymatic Reaction System of Polypeptide 
     1. Experimental Methods: 
     1.1 Reagent: 0.5 mg/ml Trichothecenes (DON, 3DON, 15ADON, FUS-X, NIV, T2, H-T2, and DAS) Prepared by Adding Distilled Water to 1 mg of Trichothecenes to 2 ml, Filtered and Sterilized. 
     1.2 Establishment of an In Vitro Enzymatic Reaction System 
     The optimal conditions for the in vitro enzymatic reaction system of FTCD polypeptide were established by gradient experiments of three different factors affecting the enzymatic reaction: 
     (1) the gradient of reaction enzyme amounts: 1 μg, 5 μg, 10 μg, 25 μg, and 50 μg; 
     (2) the pH gradient set with various buffers: ranging from 3.0 to 10.0, disodium hydrogen phosphate-citric acid buffer (pH=3.0, 4.0, 5.0), disodium hydrogen phosphate-potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (pH=6.0, 7.0), and Tris-phosphate buffer (pH=8.0, 9.0, 10.0); and 
     (3) the gradient of reaction temperatures: 4° C., 12° C., 15° C., 20° C., 25° C., 30° C., 37° C., 45° C., and 50° C. 
     2. Experimental Results: 
     2.1 Effect of Enzyme Amount on the Enzymatic Reaction System 
     The reaction was performed in a phosphate buffer (PBS) (pH=7.0), at 25° C. for 12 h, and samples were taken at 0 h, 0.5 h, 1 h, 3 h, and 6 h respectively for LC-HRMS analysis; through the area results of first-level scanning of LC-HRMS, the changes in the contents of the two substances, DON as the reaction substrate and the GSH adduct as the reaction product, were obtained with proceeding of reaction, so as to obtain the optimal enzyme amount for the reaction, as shown in  FIGS.  2 A and  2 B . 
     The experimental results obtained by changing the enzyme amount showed that when the enzyme amount was 1 to 25 μg, the amount of DON-GSH produced was positively correlated with the amount of enzyme added within the same time period. When the enzyme amount exceeded 25 μg, the amount of DON-GSH produced tended to be stable. Therefore, 25 μg was chosen as the optimal test enzyme amount. 
     2.2 Effect of pH of the Reaction System on the Enzymatic Reaction System 
     The experimental results of the pH gradient of the enzymatic reaction buffer were shown in  FIGS.  3 A and  3 B .  FIGS.  3 A and  3 B  show that when the pH of the buffer was 6.0, the amount of the product DON-GSH reached the highest value, while the content of the reaction substrate DON was the lowest, and thus the suitable pH of the buffer was between 5.0 and 7.0. 
     3. Effect of Reaction Temperature on the Enzymatic Reaction System 
     According to the above experimental results, under the conditions at the pH of the reaction buffer of 7.0 and the addition amount of enzyme of 25 μg, the temperatures were set at 4° C., 12° C., 15° C., 20° C., 25° C., 30° C., 37° C., 45° C., and 50° C., and the reaction time was 24 h; samples were taken at 0 h, 0.5 h, 1 h, 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h respectively for LC-HRMS analysis; through the area results of first-level scanning of LC-HRMS, the changes in the contents of the two substances, DON as the reaction substrate and the GSH adduct as the reaction product, were obtained with proceeding of reaction, so as to obtain the optimal temperature for the reaction. 
     The results of experiments obtained by setting different reaction temperatures were shown in FIGS. A and  4 B.  FIGS.  4 A and  4 B  show that the difference in the effect on the enzymatic reaction was not significant at 20° C. to 25° C., and the content of the product can all reach the maximum value; the amount of DON-GSH produced decreased with decreasing temperature below 15° C.; the amount of DON-GSH produced was inversely correlated with the increase of reaction temperature at 30° C. to 37° C.; the product DON-GSH can not be detected by first-level scanning of LC-HRMS above 37° C., indicating that the enzyme had basically lost its activity. Therefore, the condition at 20° C. to 25° C. was more suitable for the enzymatic reaction. 
     The above experimental results showed that the most suitable conditions to carry out in vitro enzymatic reaction were as follows: in the reaction system, 25 μg of purified FTCD protein was added, and after adding an appropriate amount of reaction substrates, the system was supplemented to 200 μl with a buffer at a pH of 5.0 to 7.0, mixed, and reacted at 20° C. to 25° C. 
     III. The Reaction of Removing Epoxy Groups of Trichothecene Mycotoxins Catalyzed by Active Polypeptide FTCD 
     1. Experimental Methods: 
     1.1 In Vitro Enzymatic Reaction: 
     DON, 3-DON, 15-ADON, NIV, DAS, HT-2, and T-2 toxins (1 mg) were dissolved in freshly prepared GSH (30.7 mg, 100 μmol in PBS buffer respectively, and the enzyme was added, and incubated in a water bath at 20° C. for 24 h. 
     1.2 LC-HRMS (/MS) analysis 
     The in vitro reaction solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm filter membrane, and transferred to an injection vial for LC-HRMS detection. 
     Thermo Scientific™ Q Exactive™ Hybrid Quadrupole Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer was used. A UHPLC system (Accela, Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, Calif., USA) was used in conjunction with an Orbitrap equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source. Chromatography was performed on a reverse phase XBridge C18, with an inner diameter of 150&gt;&lt;2.1 mm, and a particle size of 3.5 μm (Waters, Dublin, Ireland), at a column temperature of 35° C. The flow rate was 300 μL min −1 , and the injection volume was 3 μL. U3000 liquid chromatograph was used with the following conditions: mobile phase: A: 0.1% aqueous acetic acid, B: acetonitrile; elution gradient: A=90% at 0 to 0.2 min; A gradually decreased to 10% at 0.2 to 6 min; A=10% at 6 to 8 min; A gradually increased to 90% at 8.1 min; and A=90% at 8.1 to 10 min. 
     (1) Full scan mode: This mode rapidly performed alternated positive and negative ion scans in the m/z range of 200 to 1000. The ESI interface in positive ion mode was set as follows: sheath gas: 40; auxiliary gas: 10; capillary voltage: 3.8 kV; and capillary temperature: 350° C. The AGC target was set to 2&gt;&lt;e5. The ESI interface in negative ion mode was set to 2.9 kV; sheath gas: 4; and auxiliary gas: 0. The resolution in this mode was set to 70,000. 
     (2) The liquid chromatography method and chromatographic conditions in Full scan+ddms (first-level full scan+automatic triggering of second-level) mode were the same as above. In this method, full scan and MS2 scan were used alternately with normalized collision energy set to 20 eV and resolution set to 17,500 during product ion scanning 
     (3) PRM mode can be used to quantify the relative abundance of toxins and their derivatives in a sample. After screening of precursor ions in PRM mode, dissociation was induced at normalized collision energy (HCID), followed by fragment detection of product ions in Orbitrap with a resolution set to 17,500. Normalized collision energies were used, with collision energies applied (15, 30 and 45 eV) being dependent on the specific analyte. 
     Xcalibur 2.1.0 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, Calif., USA) were used for analysis of data of LC-HRMS (/MS). Extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of toxins and their derivatives were investigated using the extracted chromatographic peak shape, retention time (±0.2 min) and mass (±5 ppm) of the bioconversion products. According to secondary spectra and basic structures of the substances, the neutral loss was analyzed, and chemical structures were inferred. 
     2. Experimental Results 
     2.1 Catalyzing and Converting DON Toxin to Glutathione Adduct DON-GSH by FTCD 
       FIG.  5 A  shows extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of in vitro enzymatic reaction of DON and GSH by LC-HRMS 1  (Method 1). As shown in  FIG.  5 A , the extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of DON were obtained by LC-HRMS (Full scan mode) in negative ion mode, with an m/z of 355.13984 (corresponding to [M+CH 3 COO] −  form, Δ±5 ppm); the DON-GSH adduct was detected in positive ion mode, with an m/z of 604.21707 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm). 
       FIG.  5 B  shows an LC-HRMS 2  (Method 2) mass spectrogram of the product ions produced by the high-energy collision induced dissociation of DON-GSH obtained by in vitro enzymatic reaction of DON and GSH, in [M+H] +  (m/z 604.21707, Δ±5 ppm). The MS fragment of the DON-GSH epoxy adduct was investigated by targeted HRMS 2  analysis of positively charged ([M+H] + ) ions. Ion fragmentation of DON-GSH yielded a characteristic ion with an m/z of 299.0939, corresponding to C 14 H 19 O 5 S + . This characteristic ion can be attributed to cleavage of the side chain at C-6 and loss of GSH moiety other than S. This fragment can also be further cleaved to yield ions with m/z ratios of 281.08482 (C 14 H 17 O 4 S + ), 263.07425 (C 14 H 15 O 3 S + ) and 231.10218 (C 14 H 15 O 3   + ). The product ion with an m/z of 263.07425 was the base peak of the HRMS 2  mass spectrogram, and this product ion was generated by removing of two molecules of H 2 O based on the ion with an m/z of 299.0939. 
     After the loss of glycine in DON-GSH, a fragment ion with an m/z of 529.18503 (C 23 H 33 O 10 N 2 S + ) can be obtained, and a fragment ion with an m/z of 475.17466 (C 20 H 31 O 9 N 2 S + ) can also be obtained after the loss of anhydroglutamic acid. The ion fragment with the side chain at C-6 lost, with an m/z of 574.20717 (C 24 H 36 O 11 N 3 S + ), can generate a characteristic ion (C 19 H 29 O 8 N 2 S + ) with an m/z of 445.16389 after the loss of anhydroglutamic acid from the GSH moiety; and can also generate an ion with an m/z of 428.13733 (C 19 H 26 O 8 NS + ) after removing of glutamine. 
     The product ion had an m/z of 308.09108 (C 10 H 18 O 6 N 3 S + , corresponding to [M+H] +  of GSH). This fragment ion lost anhydroglutamic acid to obtain an ion with an m/z of 179.04907 (C 5 H 11 O 3 N 2 S + ); and lost glutamine to obtain an ion with an m/z of 162.02251 (C 5 H 9 O 3 NS + ). In addition, the product ions with m/z ratios of 130.05044 (C 5 H 8 O 3 N + ) and 145.06077 (C 5 H 9 O 3 N 2   + ) were associated with GSH. 
     2.2 Catalyzing and Converting 3-ADON Toxin to Glutathione Adduct 3-ADON-GSH by FTCD 
       FIG.  6 A  shows extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of in vitro enzymatic reaction of 3-ADON and GSH by LC-HRMS (Method 1). As shown in  FIG.  6 A , the extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of 3-ADON were obtained by LC-HRMS (Full scan mode) in negative ion mode, with an m/z of 397.15041 (corresponding to [M+CH 3 COO] −  form, Δ±5 ppm); the 3-ADON-GSH adduct was detected in positive ion mode, with an m/z of 646.22764 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm). 
       FIG.  6 B  shows an LC-HRMS 2  (Method 2) mass spectrogram of the product ions produced by the high-energy collision induced dissociation of 3-ADON-GSH obtained by in vitro enzymatic reaction of 3-ADON and GSH, in [M+H]+ (m/z 646.22764, Δ±5 ppm). Targeted HRMS 2  analysis was performed on the positively charged ([M+H] + ) 3-ADON-GSH epoxy adduct ion: ion fragmentation of 3-ADON-GSH yielded a characteristic ion with an m/z of 323.09539, corresponding to C 16 H 19 O 5 S + . This characteristic ion can be attributed to cleavage of the side chain attached at C-6, dehydration, and loss of GSH moiety other than S. This fragment can also be further cleaved to yield ions with m/z ratios of 263.07425 (C 14 H 15 O 3 S + ) and 231.10218 (C 14 H 15 O 3   + ). The product ion with an m/z of 263.07425 was the base peak of the HRMS 2  mass spectrogram, and this product ion was generated by removing of CH3COOH at C-3 based on the ion with an m/z of 323.09539. 
     After the loss of glycine in 3-ADON-GSH, a fragment ion with an m/z of 571.19560 (C 25 H 35 O 11 N 2 S + ) can be obtained, and by further fragmentation of the side chain at C-6, a fragment ion with an m/z of 541.18503 (C 24 H 33 O 10 N 2 S + ) can be yielded. A fragment ion m/z 628.21707 (C 27 H 38 O 12 N 3 S + ) obtained by removing of 1 molecule of H 2 O can generate an ion with an m/z of 553.18503 (C 25 H 33 O 10 N 2 S + ) after the loss of glycine, and also generate an ion with an m/z of 499.17466 (C 22 H 31 O 9 N 2 S + ) after the loss of anhydroglutamic acid. 
     2.3 Catalyzing and Converting 15-ADON Toxin to Glutathione Adduct 15-ADON-GSH by FTCD 
       FIG.  7 A  shows extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of in vitro enzymatic reaction of 15-ADON and GSH by LC-HRMS (Method 1). As shown in  FIG.  7 A , the extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of 15-ADON were obtained by LC-HRMS (Full scan mode) in negative ion mode, with an m/z of 397.15041 (corresponding to [M+CH 3 COO] −  form, Δ±5 ppm); the 15-ADON-GSH adduct was detected in positive ion mode, with an m/z of 646.22764 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm). 
       FIG.  7 B  shows an LC-HRMS 2  (Method 2) mass spectrogram of the product ions produced by the high-energy collision induced dissociation of 15-ADON-GSH obtained by in vitro enzymatic reaction of 15-ADON and GSH, in [M+H]+ (m/z 646.22764, Δ±5 ppm). The MS fragment of the 15-ADON-GSH epoxy adduct was investigated by targeted HRMS 2  analysis of positively charged ([M+H] + ) ions. Ion fragmentation of 15-ADON-GSH yielded a characteristic ion with an m/z of 311.09475, corresponding to C 15 H 19 O 5 S + . This characteristic ion can be attributed to cleavage of the side chain CH 3 COOH attached at C-15 and loss of GSH moiety other than S. 
     Like the case of 3-ADON-GSH, after the loss of glycine in 15-ADON-GSH, a product ion with an m/z of 571.1956 (C 25 H 35 O 11 N 2 S + ) can be obtained. An ion with an m/z of 628.21707 (C 27 H 38 O 12 N 3 S + ) obtained by removing of 1 molecule of H 2 O can generate an ion with an m/z of 553.18503 (C 25 H 33 O 10 N 2 S + ) after the loss of glycine. An ion with an m/z of 499.17466 (C 22 H 31 O 9 N 2 S + ) can be obtained after the loss of anhydroglutamic acid.

The MS fragment was investigated by targeted HRMS 2  analysis of positively charged ([M+H] + ) NIV-GSH epoxy adduct ions. Ion fragmentation of NIV-GSH yielded a product ion with an m/z of 229.08652, corresponding to C 14 H 13 O 3   + . This product ion can be attributed to cleavage of the side chain at C-6, break of 3 molecules of H 2 O and loss of GSH moiety, and this structure retained the basic backbone of NIV. 
     After the loss of glycine in NIV-GSH, a product ion with an m/z of 545.17995 (C 23 H 33 O 11 N 2 S + ) can be obtained. A product ion with an m/z of 491.16938 (C 20 H 31 O 10 N 2 S + ) can also be obtained after the loss of anhydroglutamic acid.

Ion fragmentation of FusX-GSH yielded a product ion with an m/z of 297.07973, corresponding to C 14 H 17 O 5 S + . This product ion can be attributed to cleavage of the side chain at C-4, cleavage of the side chain at C-6 and loss of GSH moiety other than S, and this structure retained only the basic backbone of Fus-X. 
     After the loss of glycine in FusX-GSH, a product ion with an m/z of 587.19051 (C 25 H 35 O 12 N 2 S + ) can be obtained.

The MS fragment was investigated by targeted HRMS 2  analysis of positively charged ([M+H] + ) HT-GSH epoxy adduct ions. Fragmentation of HT-GSH yielded a product ion with an m/z of 295.10048, corresponding to C 15 H 19 O 4 S + . This product ion can be attributed to cleavage of (CH 3 ) 2 CHCH 2 COOH at C-8, cleavage of CH3COOH at C-15 and loss of GSH moiety other than S, and this structure retained the basic backbone of HT-2.

Fragmentation of T2-GSH yielded a product ion with an m/z of 337.11105, corresponding to C 17 H 21 O 5 S + . This product ion can be attributed to cleavage of the side chains attached at C-8 and C-15 and loss of GSH moiety other than S, and this structure retained the basic backbone of T-2. Furthermore, the ion with an m/z of 274.10335 was generated due to the neutral loss of H 2 S resulting from cleavage of the —SH bond of GSH in the form of [M+H] + .

     3. Experimental Conclusion 
     The active polypeptide of the present invention can efficiently catalyze trichothecene mycotoxins (comprising DON, 3DON, 15ADON, FUS-X, NIV, T2, H-T2, DAS, and the like) into glutathione adducts in vitro, and it can be seen from the secondary spectrum that the formation of the adducts destroyed the epoxy ring structure playing a major role in the toxicity of trichothecenes, which can greatly reduce the toxicity of the toxins. 
     IV. Cytotoxicity Test of Trichothecene Mycotoxin-GSH Derivatives 
     1. Cell Culture 
     Using a DMEM basal medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 500 μl of penicillin-streptomycin (double antibiotics), the pancreatic cancer cell line (PATU8988), human embryonic kidney cell 293-derived line (293T) and normal human esophageal epithelial cells (HEECs) were cultured in a thermostatic incubator with 5% CO2 at 37° C. When the cells grew to 80% to 90% adherent to the wall of the flask, they were subcultured every 2 to 3 d, and the cells were collected by trypsinization and subcultured. According to the cell growth state, cells at the logarithmic growth stage were selected for experiments. 
     2. Cytotoxicity Assay by CCK8 Method 
     The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8 for short) reagent can be used to analyze cell proliferation and cytotoxicity. The three cell lines at the logarithmic growth stage were inoculated into 96-well plates with 100 ul (about 5×10 3  cells) per well, and were routinely cultured for 24 h at 37° C. with 5% CO2. The medium was discarded and grouped. Wells were set in triplicate for each group for observation, and the treatment methods of each group were as follows: the blank group was the zero-adjustment well containing medium only, the control group was the DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, and gradients of low, medium and high concentrations were all set for trichothecenes and their corresponding glutathione adducts produced by the enzymatic reaction. After culturing at 37° C. for 48 h, 10 ul of CCK8 solution was added to each well to continue the culture. After 2 h, the culture supernatants in the wells were carefully pipetted and discarded, the OD value of each well was measured by a full-wavelength multi-functional microplate reader at a wavelength of 450 nm, and the cell viability was calculated. 
     3. Experimental Results 
     The cells were plated at a concentration of 5×10 7  L −1 , and the OD450 values for the pancreatic cancer cell line (PATU8988), human embryonic kidney cell 293-derived line (293T) and normal human esophageal epithelial cells (HEEC) were detected using a CCK-8 microplate reader after 48 h treatment with trichothecenes and their corresponding glutathione adducts produced by the enzymatic reaction. Wells were set in triplicate for each group for observation, and the treatment methods of each group were as follows: the blank group was the zero-adjustment well containing medium only, the control group was the DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, and trichothecenes and their corresponding glutathione adducts produced by the enzymatic reaction were provided at corresponding concentrations according to the results in literatures for treatment. The results were shown in  FIG.  13   . 
     As shown in  FIG.  13   , the viability of PATU8988, 293T and HEEC decreased sharply after treatment with corresponding concentrations of trichothecenes (DON, 3-ADON, 15-ADON, FUS-X, NIV, T-2, HT-2, and DAS) for 48 h, indicating that different trichothecenes are highly toxic to cells; while the treatment with corresponding derivatives of trichothecenes (DON, 3-ADON, 15-ADON, FUS-X, NIV, T-2, HT-2, and DAS) produced by the reaction led to substantially the same cell viability as the blank control at the corresponding same concentrations, indicating that the glutathione adducts corresponding to the above 8 trichothecenes had substantially no toxic effect on cells. 
     Through the above experiments, it was found that all the trichothecenes can have a strong inhibitory effect on the cell viability, while the corresponding glutathione adducts of most trichothecenes had almost no effect on cell viability at the same mass concentrations. In conclusion, the production of glutathione adducts of trichothecenes can greatly reduce the toxic effects of these trichothecenes on cells. 
     V. Research on Host Cells Expressing the FTCD Active Polypeptide and its Function 
     1. Construction of yeast expression plasmid pPICZαA-FTCD 
     The cDNA of the de-epoxidase gene derived from  Thinopyrum ponticum  had a length of 865 bp (SEQ ID NO: 36), the sequence did not comprise Bsp119I and XbaI restriction sites, and the primer sequences were designed as follows: 
     
       
         
           
               
               
            
               
                   
                 F: 
               
               
                   
                 5′-ATTA TTCGAA AGAAATCCACCCATCGTCATCACC-3′ 
               
               
                   
                   
               
               
                   
                 R: 
               
               
                   
                 5′-TTGT TCTAGA CTACTTCACCTCGGCATACTTGTC-3′ 
               
            
           
         
       
     
     The underlined portions are restriction endonuclease sites. The whole gene sequence of the cDNA was obtained by PCR. The PCR product was purified, and digested by double enzymes, Bsp119I and XbaI, and meanwhile the expression vector pPICZαA was digested with these enzymes. The large fragment of the vector and the target gene fragment were recovered respectively, and the recovered fragments were ligated with T4 DNA ligase and transformed into  Escherichia coli  DH5α. After identification by colony PCR, the positive monoclonal bacterial solution was sequenced for verification. 
     2. Transformation of  Pichia pastoris    
     The recombinant plasmids were first linearized with Sac I, and 1 ml of single-stranded DNA sample was boiled for 5 minutes and then rapidly cooled on ice. The samples were kept on ice. Competent yeast cells were centrifuged, and LiCl was removed with a pipette. 240 μl of 50% polyethylene glycol, 36 μl of 1 M LiCl, 25 μl of 2 mg/ml single-stranded DNAs, and plasmid DNAs (5 to 10 μg) in 50 μl of sterile water were sequentially added. Each tube was vortexed vigorously until the cell pellet was completely mixed (for about 1 minute). The test tubes were incubated at 30° C. for 30 minutes, and underwent a thermal shock in a water bath at 42° C. for 20 to 25 minutes. Cells were pelleted by centrifugation. The pellet was resuspended in 1 ml of YPD and incubated at 30° C. with oscillation. After 1 hour and 4 hours, 25 to 100 μl were inoculated on the YPD plates comprising an appropriate concentration of Zeocin™. The plates were incubated at 30° C. for 2 to 3 days. 
     10 single colonies were selected for enrichment culture, yeast chromosomal DNAs were extracted, and positive recombinant cells were detected by PCR. PCR identification was usually performed using pPICZαA universal primers. If the yeast expression vector pPICZαA was used as the template, a target fragment of about 588 bp can be amplified; and if pPICZαA-FTCD was used as the template, a target fragment with a target band size plus 588 bp can be amplified. 
     3. Enzyme Expression and Toxin Treatment 
     The screened positive yeast single colony (X33/pPICZαA-FTCD) and the negative yeast single colony (X33/pPICZαA) were respectively inoculated into 25 ml of BMGY medium, and cultured at 28° C. to 30° C. until OD600 was 2 to 6. The culture was centrifuged at room temperature, the supernatant was discarded, the cells were collected, the cells were resuspended in BMMY liquid medium to about OD600=1, transferred to a 500 ml Erlenmeyer flask, and cultured at 28° C. to 30° C., and methanol was added every 24 h to a final concentration of 0.5% to maintain induced expression. After 48 h of induction, the culture solution was aliquoted into 5 ml to 15 ml centrifuge tubes, and various trichothecenes were added to a final concentration of 25 μg/ml, the induction was continued for 48 h to 72 h, and the culture were collected for LC-HRMS analysis. 
     At the same time, after the positive yeast single colony (X33/pPICZαA-FTCD) and the negative yeast single colony (X33/pPICZαA) were induced for expressing proteins for 48 h, the culture was diluted with the medium at dilutions of 1, ⅕ and 1/20 (initial OD=0.01), and cultured on YPDA solid media with 400 μM DON and without DON for 5 days, and the growth was observed. The tolerances to DON were compared between transgenic yeast overexpressing active polypeptide and transgenic yeast with the blank vector. 
     4. LC-HRMS 
     The aliquoted samples were centrifuged, and the supernatant was discarded. The samples were quickly frozen in liquid nitrogen, a little quartz sand was added, and after grinding with a plastic grinding rod, 1.3 ml of pre-cooled 75% methanol aqueous solution (comprising 0.1% formic acid) was added. The mixture was vibrated for 10 s, sonicated for 30 min at room temperature, and the supernatant was taken and transferred to a new centrifuge tube. The supernatant was concentrated in vacuo to a dry powder. Before injection, the dry powder was resuspended with 100 μL of 20% acetonitrile solution, filtered through a 0.22 μm filter membrane, and transferred to an injection vial for LC-HRMS detection. The detection method was the same as above. 
     5. Experimental Results 
     5.1 LC-HRMS Results 
     The LC-HRMS results were shown in  FIG.  14   . The DON-GSH adduct with an m/z of 604.21730 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected in positive ion mode by LC-HRMS (Full scan) from DON-treated yeast expressing the active polypeptide; the 3-ADON-GSH adduct with an m/z of 646.22764 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected from 3-ADON-treated yeast expressing the active polypeptide; the 15-ADON-GSH adduct with an m/z of 646.22764 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected from 15-ADON-treated yeast expressing the active polypeptide; the NIV-GSH adduct with an m/z of 620.21199 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected from NIV-treated yeast expressing active polypeptide; the DAS-GSH adduct with an m/z of 674.25894 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected from DAS-treated yeast expressing the active polypeptide; the “HT2-2H”-GSH adduct with an m/z of 730.28515 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected from HT-2-treated yeast expressing the active polypeptide; and the “T2-2H”-GSH adduct with an m/z of 772.29572 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm) was detected from T-2-treated yeast expressing FTCD. Meanwhile, no derivatives in the form of GSH adducts were detected in the corresponding controls. 
     The results of LC-HRMS detection showed that transfer of the de-epoxidase gene into  Pichia pastoris  can achieve efficient catalysis of conversion of trichothecene mycotoxins (comprising DON, 3-DON, 15-ADON, FUS-X, NIV, T-2, HT-2, and DAS) to glutathione adducts. Transgenic yeast had improved ability of toxin tolerance, demonstrating that FTCD can take a trichothecene mycotoxin as a substrate and catalyze it into the corresponding GSH adduct, thereby playing a role in detoxification in vivo. 
     5.2 Experimental Results of DON Tolerance of Transgenic Yeast 
     The growth viabilities of transgenic yeast overexpressing FTCD and transgenic yeast with the blank vector were compared on YPDA media with/without DON. A series of 1, ⅕, and 1/20-fold dilutions of yeast cultures with induced protein expression were added to yeast media (initial OD=0.01), and grown at 30° C. for 5 days, and the growth was observed. The results were shown in  FIG.  15   . It was found that the growth viability of transgenic yeast overexpressing FTCD on DON-containing media was significantly higher than that of transgenic yeast with the blank vector. 
     In the DON tolerance experiment of transgenic yeast, it was found that on the YPDA media comprising 400 μM DON, the growth viability of the transgenic yeast comprising FTCD was significantly higher than that of the transgenic yeast with the blank vector, further indicating that FTCD can be expressed in yeast and can catalyze the reaction between glutathione and a trichothecene such as DON for detoxification, thereby improving the tolerance of yeast to DON. 
     VI. Functional Analysis of the Gene of Homologous Sequences 
     On the basis of the sequence (SEQ ID NO: 36) of the de-epoxidase gene derived from  Thinopyrum , blastn alignment was performed by NCBI, and no annotated highly homologous gene was found under default parameters. However, according to the information that there were homologous genes among  Epichloë  sp., the inventor jointly searched the genome databases of other laboratories and obtained 11 sequences derived from this genus, as set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 60-70 respectively. As shown in  FIG.  16   , these sequences shared a sequence identity of 90% or more with the de-epoxidase gene of  Thinopyrum ponticum . In addition, the inventor also isolated a gene from  Thinopyrum elongatum  with a sequence identity of 98% to the de-epoxidase gene of  Thinopyrum ponticum , and its sequence was shown in SEQ ID NO: 37. 
     Using the same method as described above, these genes were transferred into yeast cells respectively, and expressed as corresponding proteins having amino acid sequences as set forth in SEQ ID Nos: 25-35 respectively. Analysis was performed using LC-HRMS. As shown in  FIG.  17   , other 12 homologous sequences were transferred into  Pichia pastoris  and treated with DON. LC-HRMS detection showed generation of DON-GSH. There was an independent and specific peak at RT=1.68 min, which was the GSH adduct at C-13 (by de-epoxidation). In extracted ion chromatograms of DON-treated transgenic yeast by LC-HRMS (Method 1), the DON-GSH adduct was detected in positive ion mode, with an m/z of 604.21730 (corresponding to [M+H] + , Δ±5 ppm). 
     On the basis of the above analysis, the inventor further analyzed the conservation between the proteins produced by these homologous genes, and obtained a polypeptide fragment having an amino acid sequence at positions 25-62, a polypeptide fragment having an amino acid sequence at positions 92-110, and a polypeptide fragment having an amino acid sequence at positions 144-184. 
     VII. Research on Mutation of FTCD 
     Using the Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes technology (TILLING technology), random mutation was performed on the de-epoxidase gene (with a sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 36) derived from  Thinopyrum ponticum  to obtain 22 mutants of which the amino acid sequences were changed. The amino acid sequences of these mutants were shown in SEQ ID Nos: 3-24, respectively. After functional analysis, the original epoxy group-removing activity was retained to varying degrees in the 22 mutants. There were two termination mutations, terminating at amino acids 209 and 243, respectively, but the two termination mutations would not lead to complete loss of the enzyme&#39;s function. Therefore, it was suggested that the functional domain of this enzyme was mainly at the N-terminal. 
     After sequence homology analysis, two relatively conserved regions were found, i.e., a region at positions 92-104 and a region at positions 144-184. For the functions of these two conserved regions, it was speculated that they may be important regions related to catalytic activity. In the region between these two regions, there was a large variation among different species. Therefore, it was speculated that the region between these two conserved regions may be a linking region. 
     In order to verify the above speculation, the inventor designed a series of deletion mutants for verification based on the mutant materials obtained by screening the Tilling population in the early stage. Specifically, the SEQ ID NO: 36 sequence was taken as a template to design the corresponding specific primers comprising sequences homologous to the cloning vector, and the specific mutant types were as follows:

     The specific experimental procedures were as follows: 
     1. The gene sequences corresponding to the above-mentioned deletion mutants were obtained by PCR, constructed into plasmid pET28a by the designed NcoI and BamHI restriction sites, transformed into  Escherichia coli  DH5α, identified by colony PCR and verified by sequencing. The correct recombinant expression vector plasmid was transformed into competent cells of  Escherichia coli  expression strain BL21 (DE3). The transformed cells were shaken at 37° C. for 4 h to induce protein expression with 0.5 mmol/L IPTG, and the bacterial cells were collected and resuspended in PBS. After ultrasonication, the supernatant was collected, and the supernatant was purified by a Ni column and a molecular sieve, and the purified protein was quantified by the BCA protein quantification method. 
     2. In Vitro Enzymatic Reaction 
     DON, 3-DON, and 15-ADON toxins (1 mg) were dissolved in freshly prepared GSH (30.7 mg, 100 μmol) in PBS buffer respectively, and the same amount of purified proteins were added based on the concentrations of proteins purified in vitro from several different FTCD deletion mutants, and incubated in a water bath at 25° C. for 24 h. 
     3. LC-HRMS (/MS) Analysis 
     The in vitro reaction solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm filter membrane, and transferred to an injection vial for LC-HRMS detection. PRM mode was used to quantify the relative abundance of toxins and their derivatives in a sample. The enzyme activity was calculated according to the amount of substrate conversion per unit time, and based on this result, the effect of different deletion mutations on protein activity was determined. DON, 3-DON, and 15-ADON toxins (1 mg) were dissolved in freshly prepared GSH (30.7 mg, 100 μmol) in PBS buffer respectively, and the same amount of purified proteins were added based on the concentrations of proteins purified in vitro from several different FTCD deletion mutants, and incubated in a water bath at 25° C. for 24 h. Samples were taken for LC-HRMS analysis, and the effect of different deletion mutations on enzyme activity was shown in Table 2.

     It can be seen from Table 2 that the mutants with deletion of amino acids 1 to 90 had a little effect on the enzyme activity, while the deletion of the first 95 amino acids has a greater effect on the enzyme activity and led to greatly reduced enzyme activity, and the expressed protein was inactive if the first 150 amino acids were deleted. On the other hand, it was found that the sequence comprising the conserved region speculated by the present invention, i.e., the mutant comprising amino acids 92 to 184, had a high level of specific enzyme activity although the activity was affected. Hence, this was substantially in good agreement with what was speculated. 
     In addition, in the case of mutation of the speculated linking region, the sequence of this region of  Thinopyrum ponticum  was substituted with corresponding sequences of other genera respectively, and it was found that the activity remained substantially unchanged. Further substitution of this region with the artificially designed linker sequence GGGSGGSGG also had little effect on the enzyme activity. These results were substantially in good agreement with the predictions. 
     2. Mutation Analysis of Critical Amino Acids in Conserved Regions 
     On the basis of determining the critical regions of enzyme activity, the inventor further mutated the amino acids in the two conserved regions to expect to find critical amino acids. 
     Specifically, gene sequences having different mutation combinations were obtained by gene synthesis. These gene sequences were expressed in  Escherichia coli  and purified. The resulting mutant polypeptides were used for the in vitro enzymatic reaction, and the enzyme activity was analyzed by LC-HRMS (/MS). The results were shown in Table 3.

     There were some variable sites in the conserved sequence of FTCD, wherein after the amino acids at positions 94, 95, 100, 151, 155, 158, 162, 163, 165, 174, 175 and 178 were changed, FTCD can still maintain a certain activity. Among these variable sites, amino acid changes at different sites had different effects on the activity of FTCD, wherein when the amino acids at positions 100 and 178 were changed, the activity of FTCD was greatly affected, and the activity can be reduced by about 60%. After other variable sites were changed, the activity of FTCD can remain 50% or more.

     8.1.3 Induced Expression of Polypeptides 
     The target protein in  Bacillus subtilis  was mainly secreted into the medium in a soluble state. After the positive bacteria comprising the recombinant plasmids were subjected to expanded culture, they were shaken in LB broth media until the OD600 of the bacteria was 0.6 to 0.8. 1 mL of the culture was taken out and centrifuged at room temperature for 2 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the bacterial pellet was resuspended in 100 μl of 1× loading buffer. IPTG was added to the remaining culture to a final concentration of 0.5 mM, and the fusion protein was induced to express by shaking at 37° C. and 220 r/min for 8 h. Samples were taken at 4 h and 8 h, respectively, and centrifuged to obtain a supernatant for SDS-PAGE and western blot detection. The results were shown in  FIGS.  18 A and  18 B , indicating that soluble protein was obtained in the medium with a molecular weight of about 32 kDa, and the expression level after 8 h of induction was higher. Western Blot was performed using an His-tagged antibody, and a protein band with a molecular weight of about 32 kDa appeared, while no immunoreactive band was found in the control group.

The flow rate was 300 μL min −1 , and the injection volume was 3 μL. Mobile phase: A: 0.1% aqueous acetic acid, B: acetonitrile; elution gradient: A=90% at 0 to 0.2 min; A gradually decreased to 10% at 0.2 to 6 min; A=10% at 6 to 8 min; A gradually increased to 90% at 8.1 min; and A=90% at 8.1 to 10 min. 
     Xcalibur 2.1.0 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, Calif., USA) were used for analysis of data of LC-HRMS (/MS). Extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) of toxins and their derivatives were investigated using the extracted chromatographic peak shape, retention time (±0.2 min) and mass (±5 ppm) of the bioconversion products. According to secondary spectra and basic structures of the substances, the neutral loss was analyzed, and chemical structures were inferred.

     The product was digested by double enzymes, EcoRI and XbaI, and meanwhile the expression vector pPICZαA was digested with these enzymes. The large fragment of the vector and the target gene fragment were recovered respectively, and the recovered fragments were ligated with T4 DNA ligase and transformed into  Escherichia coli  DH5α. After identification by colony PCR, the positive monoclonal bacterial solution was sequenced for verification. 
     8.5.2. Transformation of  Pichia pastoris    
     The recombinant plasmids were first linearized with Sac I, and 1 ml of single-stranded DNA sample was boiled for 5 minutes and then rapidly cooled on ice. The samples were kept on ice. Competent yeast cells were centrifuged, and LiCl was removed with a pipette. 240 μl of 50% polyethylene glycol, 36 μl of 1 M LiCl, 25 μl of 2 mg/ml single-stranded DNAs, and plasmid DNAs (5 to 10 μg) in 50 μl of sterile water were sequentially added. Each tube was vortexed vigorously until the cell pellet was completely mixed (for about 1 minute). The test tubes were incubated at 30° C. for 30 minutes, and underwent a thermal shock in a water bath at 42° C. for 20 to 25 minutes. Cells were pelleted by centrifugation. The pellet was resuspended in 1 ml of YPD and incubated at 30° C. with oscillation. After 1 hour and 4 hours, 25 to 100 μl were inoculated on the YPD plates comprising an appropriate concentration of Zeocin™. The plates were incubated at 30° C. for 2 to 3 days. 
     10 single colonies were selected for enrichment culture, yeast chromosomal DNAs were extracted, and positive recombinant cells were detected by PCR. PCR identification was usually performed using pPICZαA universal primers. If the yeast expression vector pPICZαA was used as the template, a target fragment of about 588 bp can be amplified; and if pPICZαA-FTCD was used as the template, a target fragment with a target band size plus 588 bp can be amplified. 
     8.5.3. Enzyme Expression and Toxin Treatment 
     The screened positive yeast single colony (X33/pPICZαA-FTCD) and the negative yeast single colony (X33/pPICZαA) were respectively inoculated into 25 ml of BMGY medium, and cultured at 28° C. to 30° C. until OD600 was 2 to 6. The culture was centrifuged at room temperature, the supernatant was discarded, the cells were collected, the cells were resuspended in BMMY liquid medium to about OD600=1, transferred to a 500 ml Erlenmeyer flask, and cultured at 28° C. to 30° C., and methanol was added every 24 h to a final concentration of 0.5% to maintain induced expression. After 48 h of induction, the culture solution was aliquoted into 5 ml to 15 ml centrifuge tubes, and various trichothecenes were added to a final concentration of 25 μg/ml, the induction was continued for 48 h to 72 h, and the culture were collected for LC-HRMS analysis. 
     The results of LC-HRMS detection showed that transfer of the de-epoxidase gene into  Pichia pastoris  can achieve efficient catalysis of conversion of trichothecene mycotoxins (comprising DON, 3-DON, 15-ADON, FUS-X, NIV, T-2, HT-2, and DAS) to glutathione adducts. Transgenic yeast had improved ability of toxin tolerance, demonstrating that FTCD can take a trichothecene mycotoxin as a substrate and catalyze it into the corresponding GSH adduct, thereby playing a role in detoxification in vivo.
