phaB
Introduction
Vilnius Lithuania iGEM 2023 team's goal was to create a universal synthetic biology system in Komagataeibacter xylinus for in vivo bacterial cellulose polymer composition modification. As the final approach, we have achieved a composite of bacterial cellulose and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), which is synthesized by K. xylinus.
We produced bacterial cellulose - PHB composite by introducing PHB synthesis operon into K. xylinus BBa_K4719017. The bacteria simultaneously produce both polymers, which are combined into the same material during the purification process.
Usage and Biology
PhaB is a gene encoding acetoacetyl-CoA reductase. The function of this protein is to catalyse the NADPH-dependent reduction of acetoacetyl-CoA. This step is intermediate in polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHA) pathways (1). PHAs are biodegradable thermoplastics, that naturally occur as storage compounds in bacteria when limited by the lack of nutrients other than carbon. This gene was cloned from polyhydroxybuturate synthesis operon in the plasmid pBHR68 (2).
