Friedelin Synthase from Maytenus Ilicifolia
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Friedelin Synthase from Maytenus ilicifolia: Leucine 482 Plays an Essential Role in the Production of Received: 09 May 2016 Accepted: 20 October 2016 the Most Rearranged Pentacyclic Published: 22 November 2016 Triterpene Tatiana M. Souza-Moreira1, Thaís B. Alves1, Karina A. Pinheiro1, Lidiane G. Felippe1, Gustavo M. A. De Lima2, Tatiana F. Watanabe1, Cristina C. Barbosa3, Vânia A. F. F. M. Santos1, Norberto P. Lopes4, Sandro R. Valentini3, Rafael V. C. Guido2, Maysa Furlan1 & Cleslei F. Zanelli3 Among the biologically active triterpenes, friedelin has the most-rearranged structure produced by the oxidosqualene cyclases and is the only one containing a cetonic group. In this study, we cloned and functionally characterized friedelin synthase and one cycloartenol synthase from Maytenus ilicifolia (Celastraceae). The complete coding sequences of these 2 genes were cloned from leaf mRNA, and their functions were characterized by heterologous expression in yeast. The cycloartenol synthase sequence is very similar to other known OSCs of this type (approximately 80% identity), although the M. ilicifolia friedelin synthase amino acid sequence is more related to β-amyrin synthases (65–74% identity), which is similar to the friedelin synthase cloned from Kalanchoe daigremontiana. Multiple sequence alignments demonstrated the presence of a leucine residue two positions upstream of the friedelin synthase Asp-Cys-Thr-Ala-Glu (DCTAE) active site motif, while the vast majority of OSCs identified so far have a valine or isoleucine residue at the same position. The substitution of the leucine residue with valine, threonine or isoleucine in M. ilicifolia friedelin synthase interfered with substrate recognition and lead to the production of different pentacyclic triterpenes. -

July 11, 2014 iii Abstract MECHANISTIC STUDY OF CYSTEINE DIOXYGENASE A NON-HEME MONONUCLEAR IRON ENZYME Wei Li, PhD The University of Texas at Arlington, 2014 Supervising Professor: Brad Pierce Cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is an non-heme mononuclear iron enzymes that catalyzes the O2-dependent oxidation of L-cysteine (Cys) to produce cysteine sulfinic acid (CSA). CDO controls cysteine levels in cells and is a potential drug target for some diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzhermer’s.
