Design Notes

The design of the Cytochrome P450 83A1 (CYP83A1) gene utilizes the coding sequence (CDS) from Arabidopsis thaliana, optimized for codon usage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288C) to ensure efficient expression in yeast. CYP83A1 plays a crucial role in the metabolism of aliphatic and aromatic aldoximes, participating in the biosynthesis of both short-chain and long-chain aliphatic glucosinolates.[1]In this study, CYP83A1 metabolizes (E)-aldoximes derived from chain-elongated methionine, such as dihomomethionine. The gene is expressed in yeast using the PGI1 promoter (PGI1pBBa_K5327017) and HXT7 terminator (HXT7tBBa_K5327019) to ensure high-level expression and mRNA stability. The optimized gene was inserted into a vector and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C via homologous recombination, followed by screening and expression validation using a defective strain. This method aims to enhance the synthesis of aliphatic glucosinolates in yeast and optimize yeast as a metabolic engineering platform.
