  • Expression of a Gene Encoding Acetolactate Synthase from Rice Complements Two Ilvh Mutants in Escherichia Coli
    AJCS 4(6):430-436 (2010) ISSN:1835-2707 Expression of a gene encoding acetolactate synthase from rice complements two ilvH mutants in Escherichia coli Md. Shafiqul Islam Sikdar1, Jung-Sup Kim2* 1Faculty of Biotechnology, Jeju National University, Jeju, 690-756, Korea and Department of Agronomy, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur-5200, Bangladesh 2Faculty of Biotechnology, Jeju National University, Jeju, 690-756, Korea *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract Acetolactate synthase (ALS) is a thiamine diphosphate-dependent enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway leading to isoleucine, valine and leucine in plants. ALS is the target of several classes of herbicides that are effective to protect a broad range of crops. In this study, we describe the functional analysis of a gene encoding for ALS from rice (OsALS). Sequence analysis of an EST from rice revealed that it harbors a full-length open reading frame for OsALS encoding a protein of approximately 69.4 kDa and the N-terminal of OsALS contains a feature of chloroplast transit peptide. The predicted amino acid sequence of OsALS is highly homologous to those of weed ALSs among plant ALSs. The OsALS expression showed that the gene was functionally capable of complementing the two ilvH mutant strains of Escherichia coli. These results indicate that the OsALS encodes for an enzyme in acetolactate synthase in rice.

  • The Effect of Increased Plastid Transketolase Activity on Thiamine
    The effect of increased plastid transketolase activity on thiamine metabolism in transgenic tobacco plants Stuart James Fisk A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Biological Sciences University of Essex November 2015 I Acknowledgements I'd like to thank my supervisors Professor Christine Raines and Dr Tracy Lawson for all of the support and encouragement, Dr Julie Lloyd for the comments and suggestions given at board meetings and the University of Essex for funding this research. An extremely big thank you to all the members of plant group both past and present who have provided lots of help and technical support as well as plenty of laughs and an addiction to caffeine. But the biggest thanks of all go to my wife and best friend Alison Fisk. She always believed in me. II Summary Transketolase is a TPP dependent enzyme that affects the availability of intermediates in both the Calvin cycle and non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway. Previous studies have indicated that changes to the activity level of transketolase can limit growth and development as well as the production of isoprenoids, starch, amino acids and thiamine. The overall aim of this project was to further advance the understanding of the mechanism linking increased TK activity and thiamine metabolism. Nicotiana tabacum mutants with increased total transketolase activity ~ 2 to 2.5 fold higher than WT plants were shown to have a reduced growth and chlorotic phenotype. In seedlings, these phenotypes were attributed to a reduction in seed thiamine content. Imbibition of TKox seeds in a thiamine solution produced plants that were comparable to WT plants.

  • Mining the Arabidopsis Genome for Cytochrome P450 Biocatalysts
    Mining the Arabidopsis genome for cytochrome P450 biocatalysts Maria Magdalena Razalan PhD University of York Biology September 2016 Abstract Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) constitute a wide group of NAD(P)H-dependent monooxygenases, found throughout all kingdoms of life. Among the most important functions of CYPs are the synthesis of bioactive compounds and the conversion of xenobiotics. These functions can be translated into biotechnological applications, such as the production of highly regio- and stereo-specific drug metabolites for the pharmaceutical industry, or to confer activity towards toxic compounds for agronomics and bioremediation purposes. Plants possess a large number of CYP sequences, but most still remain uncharacterised, due to the difficulty in the isolation of the membrane-bound enzyme and in the reconstitution of an active and efficient redox system. In this project, a fusion construct for the co-expression of the CYP with a suitable reductase was created. The construct consisted of a C-terminal Arabidopsis ATR2 reductase (codon-optimised for expression in E. coli and truncated of the N-terminal membrane anchor) connected through a poly-GlySer linker to the heme domain. An N-terminal Im9 peptide replaced the natural membrane-binding domain of the CYP. When CYP73A5 from Arabidopsis was cloned into the construct, it was able to convert almost 60 % of the substrate cinnamic acid to the hydroxylated derivative, in whole cell assays. This result demonstrated that this expression platform enables the expression of active redox self-sufficient P450 catalysts and it can be further utilised for the characterisation of orphan CYPs. Following from gene expression studies and reports on the existence of oxidative derivatives of TNT, the potential involvement of CYP81D11 in the detoxification of TNT was explored with different in planta assays, employing transgenic Arabidopsis lines and tobacco leaf discs.

  • In-Silico Three Dimensional Structure Prediction of Important Neisseria Meningitidis Proteins
    doi.org/10.36721/PJPS.2021.34.2.REG.553-560.1 In-silico three dimensional structure prediction of important Neisseria meningitidis proteins Muhammad Ali1, Muhammad Aurongzeb2 and Yasmeen Rashid1* 1Department of Biochemistry, University of Karachi, Karachi, Pakistan 2Jamil-ur-Rehman Center for Genome Research, PCMD, International Center for Chemical and Biological Sciences, University of Karachi, Karachi, Pakistan Abstract: Pathogenic bacteria Neisseria meningitidis cause serious infection i.e. meningitis (infection of the brain) worldwide. Among five pathogenic serogroups, serogroup B causes life threatening illness as there is no effective vaccine available due to its poor immunogenicity. A total of 73 genes in N. meningitidis genome have identified that were proved to be essential for meningococcal disease and were considered as crucial drug targets. We targeted five of those proteins, which are known to involve in amino acid biosynthesis, for homology-based three dimensional structure determinations by MODELLER (v9.19) and evaluated the models by PROSA and PROCHECK programs. Detailed structural analyses of NMB0358, NMB0943, NMB1446, NMB1577 and NMB1814 proteins were carried out during the present research. Based on a high degree of sequence conservation between target and template protein sequences, excellent models were built. The overall three dimensional architectures as well as topologies of all the proteins were quite similar with that of the templates. Active site residues of all the homology models were quite conserved with respect to their respective templates indicating similar catalytic mechanisms in these orthologues. Here, we are reporting, for the first time, detailed three dimensional folds of N. meningitidis pathogenic factors involved in a crucial cellular metabolic pathway.

Accepted 27 November 2012 Studies of photosynthetic eukaryotes have revealed that the evolution of plastids from cyanobacteria Published involved the recruitment of non-cyanobacterial proteins. Our phylogenetic survey of .100 Arabidopsis 11 December 2012 nuclear-encoded plastid enzymes involved in amino acid biosynthesis identified only 21 unambiguous cyanobacterial-derived proteins. Some of the several non-cyanobacterial plastid enzymes have a shared phylogenetic origin in the three Plantae lineages. We hypothesize that during the evolution of plastids some enzymes encoded in the host nuclear genome were mistargeted into the plastid. Then, the activity of those Correspondence and foreign enzymes was sustained by both the plastid metabolites and interactions with the native requests for materials cyanobacterial enzymes. Some of the novel enzymatic activities were favored by selective compartmentation should be addressed to of additional complementary enzymes. The mosaic phylogenetic composition of the plastid amino acid A.R.-P.

  • Evolution of D-Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity from Glycerol Dehydrogenase and Its Utility for D-Lactate Production from Lignocellulose
    Evolution of D-lactate dehydrogenase activity from glycerol dehydrogenase and its utility for D-lactate production from lignocellulose Qingzhao Wang, Lonnie O. Ingram, and K. T. Shanmugam1 Department of Microbiology and Cell Science, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611 Edited by Arnold L. Demain, Drew University, Madison, NJ, and approved October 6, 2011 (received for review July 9, 2011) Lactic acid, an attractive, renewable chemical for production of from glucose and sucrose at temperatures between 30 °C and biobased plastics (polylactic acid, PLA), is currently commercially 40 °C (8, 10). Derivatives of Escherichia coli are the only known produced from food-based sources of sugar.
