甾体类药物是销售额仅次于抗生素的世界第二大类药物,不同的甾体药物分子结构均由甾体激素中间体衍生而来。甾体激素中间体的传统生产方法包括植物提取皂素法和化学全合成法,其对环境有害,反应产物结构不唯一且成本较高,不利于工业化生产。目前主要的生产工艺是利用微生物对特殊原料进行转化的半合成法,但会遇到微生物酶转化率低、发酵周期长等问题。合成生物学的出现为构建利用糖为唯一碳源生产甾体激素中间体的人工细胞提供了理论上的可行性和可靠的技术支持。重点综述了合成生物技术在甾体激素中间体生产中的应用,以有利于工业发酵的酿酒酵母、分枝杆菌等为底盘细胞,通过引入外源合成功能模块,实现胆甾醇、雄烯二酮等甾体激素中间体的生物合成,并对合成生物技术在医药生产方式转变中的应用进行了展望,以期推动甾体类药物生物制造技术的进步。 相似文献

胆固醇是动物体内积累的主要甾醇化合物,在维持细胞膜功能、合成甾体激素、生产甾体药物中间体等方面具有重要的生物学意义和医学应用价值。传统动物组织提取胆固醇的方法费时费力并存在严重的环境污染问题,而甾醇分子结构的复杂程度也限制了其化学全合成。近些年,人们利用合成生物学方法构建的微生物细胞工厂已成功用于萜类、甾醇类等天然产物的开发与合成。文中综述了胆固醇微生物细胞工厂的研究进展,包括胆固醇生物合成途径的解析、底盘菌株的选择、异源基因元件的挖掘与优化、相关代谢通路的调控等方面,并讨论了当前研究面临的问题,以期为胆固醇的高效生物合成提供参考。 相似文献

9α-羟基雄烯二酮(9-OH-AD)是制备甾体类药物的重要中间产物。3-甾酮-9α-羟基化酶(KSH)能够转化雄烯二酮(AD)产生9α-羟基雄烯二酮(9-OH-AD),该酶由Ksh A和Ksh B两个亚基构成。为获得高效积累9-OH-AD的重组菌株,本研究选择耻垢分枝杆菌Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155和戈登氏菌Gordonia neofelifaecis NRRL B-59395,对其在胆固醇为唯一碳源条件下表达明显上调的ksh A和ksh B候选基因进行克隆,插入到分枝杆菌表达载体p NIT中,构建共表达质粒,并将它们导入分枝杆菌Mycobacterium sp.NRRL B-3805中,获得重组菌株。利用重组菌株分别对植物甾醇、胆固醇和谷甾醇进行生物转化,分离纯化转化产物,采用光谱学方法鉴定其化学结构,确定该转化产物为9α-羟基雄烯二酮,说明分枝杆菌Mycobacterium sp.NRRL B-3805由积累雄烯二酮变为积累9α-羟基雄烯二酮(9-OH-AD),进而证明导入的候选基因ksh A和ksh B确实为有功能的基因。生物转化实验表明,与胆固醇、谷甾醇相比,植物甾醇作为底物更易于转化;而用来源于耻垢分枝杆菌的ksh A、ksh B构建的重组菌转化率更高,可达90%,具有较高的应用价值。本研究通过对KSH编码基因的异源表达,成功地进行了分枝杆菌生物转化特性的改造,为探索各种甾体药物中间体的工业生产奠定了基础。 相似文献

3-甾酮-9α-羟基化酶(KSH)是微生物甾体降解途径中的关键酶,在甾体药物制备中有重要价值。以本实验室从土壤中自行筛选的分枝杆菌Mycobacterium sp.NwIB-01为出发菌株,利用红平红球菌Rhodococcus erythropolis SQ1已报道的ksh序列与已全基因组测序的分枝杆菌序列数据库进行比对分析,根据同源基因设计简并引物获得部分ksh序列,通过染色体步移扩增出全长ksh(命名为M.S.-ksh),该基因与耻垢分枝杆菌M.smegmatis mc2155的ksh同源性为85%。构建pET32-ksh表达载体,转化大肠杆菌BL21(DE3),获得高表达重组转化子菌株,经IPTG低温诱导,SDS-PAGE电泳分析,目的蛋白主要为可溶性表达,表达量占菌体总蛋白的30%以上,用Ni2+亲和层析柱纯化,纯度达90%以上。本研究为利用基因工程菌进行工业化生产甾体药物奠定了基础。 相似文献

分枝杆菌常被用作甾体药物中间体生产菌种,然而当前人们对其具体的甾醇降解机制仍然不是很清楚。为了获得C20-羟基甾药中间体,文章直接以RS为底物进行了转化,并通过对转化产物进行TLC、HPLC、LS-MS和核磁分析,初步确定分枝杆菌中存在类固醇C20-羟基脱氢酶(1DHC)参与的代谢途径。同时,基于生物信息学和结构生物学,通过序列和结构比对分析,最终从分枝杆菌中鉴定出了一个与类固醇C20-羟基脱氢酶同源性很高的基因。将该基因在大肠杆菌中异源表达,并对其功能活性进行分析,证明该基因所编码的酶和类固醇C20-羟基脱氢酶具有相同的功能活性。文章首次从分枝杆菌中鉴定出一种类固醇C20-羟基脱氢酶,使研究者对分枝杆菌甾醇代谢机制有了更深入的理解,同时也为新型甾药中间体的制备以及分枝杆菌的改造奠定了理论基础。 相似文献

TOL plasmid pWW0 from Pseudomonas putida mt-2 encodes catabolic enzymes required for the oxidation of toluene and xylenes. The structural genes for these catabolic enzymes are clustered into two operons, the xylCMABN operon, which encodes a set of enzymes required for the transformation of toluene/xylenes to benzoate/toluates, and the xylXYZLTEGFJQKIH operon, which encodes a set of enzymes required for the transformation of benzoate/toluates to Krebs cycle intermediates. The latter operon can be divided physically and functionally into two parts, the xylXYZL cluster, which is involved in the transformation of benzoate/toluates to (methyl)catechols, and the xylTEGFJQKIH cluster, which is involved in the transformation of (methyl)catechols to Krebs cycle intermediates. Genes isofunctional to xylXYZL are present in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus, and constitute a benzoate-degradative pathway, while xylTEGFJQKIH homologous encoding enzymes of a methylphenol-degradative pathway and a naphthalene-degradative pathway are present on plasmid pVI150 from P. putida CF600, and on plasmid NAH7 from P. putida PpG7, respectively. Comparison of the nucleotide sequences of the xylXYZLTEGFJQKIH genes with other isofunctional genes suggested that the xylTEGFJQKIH genes on the TOL plasmid diverged from these homologues 20 to 50 million years ago, while the xylXYZL genes diverged from the A. calcoaceticus homologues 100 to 200 million years ago. In codons where amino acids are not conserved, the substitution rate in the third base was higher than that in synonymous codons. This result was interpreted as indicating that both single and multiple nucleotide substitutions contributed to the amino acid-substituting mutations, and hence to enzyme evolution. This observation seems to be general because mammalian globin genes exhibit the same tendency. 相似文献

Barley, an important member of the cereals, has been successfully transformed through various methods such as particle bombardment,
Agrobacterium tumefaciens, DNA uptake, and electroporation. Initially, the transformation in barley concentrated on developing protocols using marker
genes such as gus, bar, and hpt. Immature embryos and callus derived from immature embryos were targeted for transformation. Subsequently, genes of agronomic
and malting importance have been deployed in barley. Particle bombardment appears to be the preferred choice for barley transformation
in the majority of the reports, although Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is being used more often. The current review focuses on the challenges encountered in barley transformation
such as somaclonal variation, development of transformation systems for commercial cultivars, gene expression, stability and
inheritance, and gene flow. Newer markers such as the green fluorescent protein (gfp), firefly luciferase, and phosphomannose isomerase were found to be useful in the selection of transgenic plants. Tissue-specific
promoters such as those for B1-hordein and D-hordein genes, and spike-specific promoters, are increasingly used to drive gene
expression. The review also describes recent research on gene-tagging through transformation, insertion of disease resistance,
and abiotic stress resistance genes, transformation with genes for improved malting quality, nutrient content, feed quality,
and the production of feed enzymes and pharmaceutical compounds. 相似文献

天然产物及其衍生物在现代医疗中扮演着举足轻重的角色,其生物活性多样性以及化学结构的丰富性是新药研发的源泉和动力。利用纯化学方法合成天然产物在技术和成本上有很大的困难,加上许多天然产物的原始产生菌具有培养条件苛刻、产量低下等缺点,而且大量基因簇在原始菌株中是沉默的,这使得利用合成生物学思想来指导天然产物生物合成基因簇的异源表达具有重大意义。作为抗生素、抗肿瘤活性物质、免疫抑制剂等次级代谢产物主要来源的放线菌一直是研究者们关注的焦点,特别是随着基因测序技术的飞速发展,人们发现链霉菌基因组中包含着极为丰富的天然产物生物合成基因簇资源。这意味着开发链霉菌底盘细胞作为异源表达宿主有其得天独厚的优势。本综述从底盘细胞开发的意义入手,重点阐述链霉菌底盘细胞构建的策略及现状,随后通过实例阐述了各种底盘链霉菌的实际应用。 相似文献

Ganoderma lucidum is a well-known and important medicinal mushroom, but its genetic modification has not been reported. We developed an efficient
procedure for isolation and regeneration of protoplasts fromG. lucidum. To construct a vector for high-level expression of heterologous genes inG. lucidum, the 1.4-kb regulatory region of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (GPD) was isolated from the genomic DNA ofLentinus edodes, and theGPD promoter was fused to the β-glucuronidase (GUS) and bialaphos resistance (bar) genes. Using the resulting construct, p301-bG1, an efficient transformation system based on electroporation was established
forG. lucidum. GUS expression was observed among transformants conferring bialaphos resistance, indicating that theL. edodes GPD promoter can be used for expression of exogenous genes inG. lucidum. We also studied green fluorescent protein (GFP) as another reporter for transformation ofG. lucidum. TheL. edodes GPD promoter was fused respectively to theGFP andbar genes, and the resulting construct, p301-bg, was introduced intoG. lucidum. StableGFP expression in transformants was detectable by fluorescence microscopy, suggesting the suitability ofGFP as a reporter system in transformation of this mushroom. This is the first report of an efficient transformation system forG. lucidum using different reporters, paving the way for genetic modification of this famous medicinal mushroom. 相似文献

In the developingDrosophilaeye,BarH1andBarH2, paired homeobox genes expressed in R1/R6 outer photoreceptors and primary pigment cells, are essential for normal eye morphogenesis. Here, we show evidence thatBarH1ectopically expressed under the control of thesevenlessenhancer (sev-BarH1) causes two types of cone cell transformation: transformation of anterior/posterior cone cells into outer photoreceptors and transformation of equatorial/polar cone cells into primary pigment cells.sev-BarH1repressed the endogenous expression of theroughhomeobox gene in R3/R4 photoreceptors, while theBarH2homeobox gene was activated bysev-BarH1in an appreciable fraction of extra outer photoreceptors. In primary pigment cells generated by cone cell transformation, the expression ofcut,a homeobox gene specific to cone cells, was completely replaced with that ofBarhomeobox genes. Extra outer photoreceptor formation was suppressed and enhanced, respectively, by reducing the activity of Ras/MAPK signaling and by dosage reduction ofyan,a negative regulator of the pathway, suggesting interactions betweenBarhomeobox genes (cell fate determinants) and Ras/MAPK signaling in eye development. 相似文献

Nucleotide sugar interconversion pathways represent a series of enzymatic reactions by which plants synthesize activated monosaccharides for the incorporation into cell wall material. Although biochemical aspects of these metabolic pathways are reasonably well understood, the identification and characterization of genes encoding nucleotide sugar interconversion enzymes is still in its infancy. Arabidopsis mutants defective in the activation and interconversion of specific monosaccharides have recently become available, and several genes in these pathways have been cloned and characterized. The sequence determination of the entire Arabidopsis genome offers a unique opportunity to identify candidate genes encoding nucleotide sugar interconversion enzymes via sequence comparisons to bacterial homologues. An evaluation of the Arabidopsis databases suggests that the majority of these enzymes are encoded by small gene families, and that most of these coding regions are transcribed. Although most of the putative proteins are predicted to be soluble, others contain N-terminal extensions encompassing a transmembrane domain. This suggests that some nucleotide sugar interconversion enzymes are targeted to an endomembrane system, such as the Golgi apparatus, where they may co-localize with glycosyltransferases in cell wall synthesis. The functions of the predicted coding regions can most likely be established via reverse genetic approaches and the expression of proteins in heterologous systems. The genetic characterization of nucleotide sugar interconversion enzymes has the potential to understand the regulation of these complex metabolic pathways and to permit the modification of cell wall material by changing the availability of monosaccharide precursors. 相似文献
