Isovaleryl-CoA (IV-CoA) is usually derived from the degradation of leucine by using the Bkd (branched-chain keto acid dehydrogenase) complex. We have previously identified an alternative pathway for IV-CoA formation in myxobacteria that branches from the well-known mevalonate-dependent isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. We identified 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) synthase (MvaS) to be involved in this pathway in Myxococcus xanthus, which is induced in mutants with impaired leucine degradation (e.g., bkd(-)) or during myxobacterial fruiting-body formation. Here, we show that the proteins required for leucine degradation are also involved in the alternative IV-CoA biosynthesis pathway through the efficient catalysis of the reverse reactions. Moreover, we conducted a global gene-expression experiment and compared vegetative wild-type cells with bkd mutants, and identified a five-gene operon that is highly up-regulated in bkd mutants and contains mvaS and other genes that are directly involved in the alternative pathway. Based on our experiments, we assigned roles to the genes required for the formation of IV-CoA from HMG-CoA. Additionally, several genes involved in outer-membrane biosynthesis and a plethora of genes encoding regulatory proteins were decreased in expression levels in the bkd(-) mutant; this explains the complex phenotype of bkd mutants including a lack of adhesion in developmental submerse culture. 相似文献

cis‐9, trans‐11 Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is one of the most extensively studied CLA isomers due to its multiple isomer‐specific effects. However, the molecular mechanisms of cis‐9,trans‐11 CLA synthesis in ruminant mammary gland are still not clearly understood. This process may be mediated, to a certain extent, by trans‐11 C18:1 regulated by stearoyl‐CoA desaturase‐1 (SCD1) and/or its syntrophic proteins. This study aimed to investigate the effects of TVA on SCD1‐mediated cis‐9,trans‐11 CLA synthesis in MAC‐T cells and its potential molecular mechanism. Results showed that trans‐11 C18:1 was continually taken up and converted into cis‐9,trans‐11 CLA in MAC‐T cells during the 4‐h incubation of 50 μM trans‐11 C18:1. SCD1 protein expression increased more than twofold at 2 h (P < 0.01) and 2.5 h (P < 0.05) before decreasing to less than half of the normal level at 4 h (P < 0.05). One up‐regulated (RAS guanyl releasing protein 4 isoform 1 [RASGRP4]) and six down‐regulated proteins (glucosamine‐6‐phosphate deaminase 1 [GNPDA1], triosephosphate isomerase [TPI1], phosphoglycerate mutase 1 [PGAM1], heat shock protein beta‐1 [HSPB1], annexin A3 [ANXA3], thiopurine S‐methyltransferase [TPMT]) were found in MAC‐T cells treated with trans‐11 C18:1. Of these seven identified proteins, the presence of GNPDA1 and PGAM1 was verified in several models. More trans‐11 C18:1 was taken up after PGAM1 knockdown by small interfering RNA (siRNA). In conclusion, our data suggested that PGAM1 may have a negative relationship with SCD1 and seemed to be involved in cis‐9, trans‐11 CLA synthesis by facilitating the absorption of trans‐11 C18:1 in the bovine mammary gland. 相似文献

Euglena gracilis produces wax ester under hypoxic and anaerobic culture conditions with a net synthesis of ATP. In wax ester fermentation, fatty acids are synthesized by reversing beta‐oxidation in mitochondria. A major species of wax ester produced by E. gracilis is myristyl myristate (14:0‐14:0Alc). Because of its shorter carbon chain length with saturated compounds, biodiesel produced from E. gracilis wax ester may have good cold flow properties with high oxidative stability. We reasoned that a slight metabolic modification would enable E. gracilis to produce a biofuel of ideal composition. In order to produce wax ester with shorter acyl chain length, we focused on isozymes of the enzyme 3‐ketoacyl‐CoA thiolase (KAT), a condensing enzyme of the mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis pathway in E. gracilis. We performed a gene silencing study of KAT isozymes in E. gracilis. Six KAT isozymes were identified in the E. gracilis EST database, and silencing any three of them (EgKAT1‐3) altered the wax ester amount and composition. In particular, silencing EgKAT1 induced a significant compositional shift to shorter carbon chain lengths in wax ester. A model fuel mixture inferred from the composition of wax ester in EgKAT1‐silenced cells showed a significant decrease in melting point compared to that of the control cells. 相似文献

Increased expression of certain ER membrane proteins leads to biogenesis of novel ER membrane arrays. These structures provide models in which to explore the mechanisms by which cells control the size and organization of organelles in response to changing physiological demands. In yeast, elevated levels of HMG-CoA reductase induce ER arrays known as karmellae. Cox and co-workers (1997) discovered that karmellae assembly is toxic to ire1 mutants. These mutants are unable to initiate the unfolded protein response, which enables cells to adjust levels of ER chaperones in response to stresses. We sought to determine whether the karmellae-dependent death of ire1 mutants was due to karmellae assembly or to increased levels of HMG-CoA reductase activity. Unexpectedly, we found that ire1 cells could assemble normal levels of karmellae that were structurally identical to those of wild-type cells. In addition, karmellae assembly did not itself induce the unfolded protein response. Certain ire1 strains produced significant numbers of transformants that were unable to utilize galactose as sole carbon source. These results suggest that the karmellae-dependent death of certain ire1 strains may simply reflect their inability to grow on galactose. 相似文献

通过对来源于山西老陈醋固态酿造过程中的乳酸菌分离株的耐醋酸性能分析,筛选得到了醋酸耐受性较优的乳酸片球菌(Pediococcus acidilactici)AAF3-3,该菌株对其他种类的酸压力(乳酸和盐酸)也表现出一定的耐受性。利用定量实时聚合酶链反应(qRT-PCR)对该菌株中乙酰辅酶A羧化酶基因(acc)的转录水平进行分析发现,其在醋酸、乳酸和盐酸下的转录水平分别是无压力条件下的4.32、2.02和1.13倍,均出现了明显上调。进一步构建该基因的过表达菌株并进行耐酸性能分析。结果表明,与对照菌株相比,acc过表达菌株在3种酸压力下的生长性能和存活性能均有所提高,其中,3%(V/V)醋酸条件下培养24 h时过表达菌株的相对活菌数是对照菌株的24倍。这表明乙酰辅酶A羧化酶在乳酸片球菌AAF3-3耐受不同种类的酸压力中发挥着重要作用。 相似文献

The antibiotic kirromycin is assembled by a hybrid modular polyketide synthases (PKSs)/nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs). Five of six PKSs of this complex assembly line do not have acyltransferase (AT) and have to recruit this activity from discrete AT enzymes. Here, we show that KirCI is a discrete AT which is involved in kirromycin production and displays a rarely found three‐domain architecture (AT1‐AT2‐ER). We demonstrate that the second AT domain, KirCI‐AT2, but not KirCI‐AT1, is the malonyl‐CoA‐specific AT which utilizes this precursor for loading the acyl carrier proteins (ACPs) of the trans‐AT PKS in vitro. In the kirromycin biosynthetic pathway, ACP5 is exclusively loaded with ethylmalonate by the enzyme KirCII and is not recognized as a substrate by KirCI. Interestingly, the excised KirCI‐AT2 can also transfer malonate to ACP5 and thus has a relaxed ACP‐specificity compared to the entire KirCI protein. The ability of KirCI‐AT2 to load different ACPs provides opportunities for AT engineering as a potential strategy for polyketide diversification. 相似文献
