NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase YahK catalyzes the reduction of a wide range of aldehydes into their corresponding alcohols. Has a strong preference for NADPH over NADH as the electron donor. Cannot use a ketone as substrate. Is a major source of NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase activity in E.coli[1]. In addition, this enzyme has been actively expressed in E.coli[2].These characteristics of RsAs attract us and thus we choose it as aldehyde reductase of our experiment.

Construct design

1.1 The transformation of palsmid pRSFDuet-YahK into E. coli BL21(DE3)

The gene of YahK was amplified from the genome of E. coli MG1655, and integrated into pRSFDuet-1 vector to obtain the plasmid pRSFDuet-YahK. By sequencing, the correct plasmid pRSFDuet-YahK was then transformed to E. coli BL21(DE3) (Figure 1).

1.1 The transformation of palsmid pRSFDuet-YahK into E. coli BL21(DE3)

The gene of YahK was amplified from the genome of E. coli MG1655, and integrated into pRSFDuet-1 vector to obtain the plasmid pRSFDuet-YahK. By sequencing, the correct plasmid pRSFDuet-YahK was then transformed to E. coli BL21(DE3) (Figure 1).
