Part:BBa_K3909000
ylPOX1
This part, ylPOX1 , is one of candidate acyl-CoA oxidase genes involved in fatty acid degradation experiments.
Our goal is to improve the cell growth of Y. lipolytica and convert a large amount of gutter oil to γ-linolenic acid when Y. lipolytica grows with gutter oil as the sole carbon source . We plan to enhance the oli degradation pathway by expressing three endogenous fatty acid degradation genes ylMEF1 (BBa_K3909006), ylPOT1 (BBa_K3909007), and ylPOXn (from BBa_K3909000 to BBa_K3909005), which are related to the metabolim of transforming acyl-CoA into acetyl-CoA in peroxisome (β-oxidation). Specifically, the β-oxidation includes three steps: i) oxidation, that catalyzed by six acyl-CoA oxidases (translated from ylPOX1 to ylPOX6); ii) hydration and dehydration, that catalyzed by multifunctional enzyme (translated from ylMFE1); and iii) thiolysis, that catalyzed by 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase (translated from ylPOT1)[1].
