produce DMADH

After expressing, it'll produce dimethylamine dehydrogenase (DMADH). The enzyme DMADH is an iron–sulfur flavoprotein which catalyses the oxidative demethylation of dimethylamine (DMA) to methylamine and formaldehyde:
(CH3)2N + H2O → CH3NH + CH2O +2H+ + 2e-[1].

Metabolic Pathway

This enzyme is a complex iron-sulfur flavoprotein that transfers electrons to the soluble flavoprotein known as electron transferring flavoprotein[2]. It couldn't work extracellular isolated.


Figure 1.Pathways for dimethylamine metabolism in bacteria.


Protein Molecular Structures

Dimethylamine dehydrogenase(DMADH) exist as dimers.


Figure 2.Protein molecular structures of dimethylamine dehydrogenase.


Engineering Success

We performed SDS-PAGE to identify that trimethylamine dehydrogenase can be expressed. Because trimethylamine dehydrogenase (TMADHexist as dimers, the protein molecular weight would double. So, protein molecular weight of TMADH is 164.9kDa.


Figure 1. Control is E. coli BL21 without dmd. dmd is induced E. coli BL21 with dmd.



We cultivated E. coli BL21 containing dmd and E. coli BL21 without dmd (Blank) for about 3 hours (OD600 0.6~0.8). Then they were induced by 4mM theophylline for 9 hours. After adjusting the density of two tubes of bacteria and making them almost have no difference, we added some DMA into bacteria cultures to make the concentration of substrate DMA 5×10-5mol/L and continued to cultivate them. Take samples before we add DMA, and add DMA for 0 min, 10 min, 20min, 3h, 6h, 9h.


Unfortunately, at present, we can only verify that our dimethylamine dehydrogenase can be expressed, but we cannot prove that it is active. More work is still in progress and more details can be seen in the parts experience page.
