pUC-HUH-EgElo9

The EgElo9 gene from Euglena gracilis encodes a ∆-9 elongase that catalyzes the conversion of linoleic acid (LA, C18:2) to eicosadienoic acid (EDA; C20: 2n-6)

Usage and Biology

We constructed a plasmid containing promoter TEF, EgElo9, and terminator Cyc1t through the T4 ligase. The plasmid was linearized by enzyme cleavage and then transformed into Yarrowia lipolytica and randomly integrated into its genome. EgElo9 gene was expressed under the action of promoter TEF, which can catalyze linoleic acid (LA, C18:2) to eicosadienoic acid (EDA; C20: 2n-6). Subsequently, the activity of EgElo9 was examined by gas chromatography.

Result

We integrate one copy of codon-optimized EgElo9 gene from Euglena gracilis under the control of strong promoter PTEF into the genome to obtain the engineered strain Po1f-1 by non-homologous End Joining (NHEJ). The percentage of eicosadienoic acid (EDA; C20: 2n-6) were 31.8%
