Usage and Biology

A small amount of Trp is catalyzed to 5-HTP by TPH (Figure).Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase interacts with the cofactor pyridoxal-5’-phosphate to convert 5-HTP to 5-HT. 5-HT is a monoamine neurotransmitter in the human central nervous sys tem and is also known as serotonin because it can cause vascular smooth muscle contraction when present in the blood. The synthesis of 5-HT takes place in both the gut and brain.Peripheral 5-HT is primarily synthesized by TPH1 in the enterochromaffin cells. 5-HT is subsequently stored in platelets and contributes to various physiological functions, including the regulation of vasocontraction and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells.

We learned that 5-HT can be further converted to melatonin, which further regulates the sleep-wake cycle by consulting the literature.Furthermore, 5-HT in the gut has been reported to be involved in the production of melatonin.

After being metabolized by gut bacteria, aromatic amino acids from food can produce monoamine false neurotransmitters, such as phenylalanine being metabolized into phenylethylamine, and tyrosine into tyramine. Tryptophan, through different metabolic pathways, can be converted into kynurenine, serotonin, and indole.

Patients who develop liver failure can not digest those aromatic amino acids properly, and this can lead to false neuro-transmitters accumulation, causing neuro system symptoms.

Design

We designed a plasmid that can be transformed into EcN to express tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1), enabling the conversion of tryptophan (Trp) into serotonin (5-HT) and reducing excess aromatic amino acids. Since serotonin synthesized in the gut cannot cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) or affect central nervous system function, there is no concern about adverse effects on the central nervous system.

Functional Verification

From the figure below, the size of each band of k y agarose gel electrophoresis is basically the same as the size of the target gene, indicating that the plasmid has been successfully transformed into ECN.
