− | === | + | ==Usage and Biology== |
− | + | The alcohol deshydrogenase catalyzes the oxidation reaction of many alcohols. In our case, it allows to oxidize fatty acids. ADH bacteria have a reverse function to that describe in the human body. It then produces alcohol by generating NAD+. This is called alcoholic fermentation.<br> | |
− | + | Although <i>E. coli</i> has a native ADH, we decided to clone this one for better results. Indeed, the alcohol dehydrogenase of <i>Bacillus stearothermophillus</i> has a better affinity for the substrate but also a better enzymatic activity. The use of the latter could therefore optimize our yields of production. | |

+ | ==Design== | ||
+ | Thanks to Geneious software we have designed a gene with a promoter, a C-Myc and 6-His tag and a terminator. The promoter is inducible to arabinose. This allows a controlled expression of the synthetic gene to avoid any effect of toxicity. In addition, arabinose is an inexpensive inducer and very present in the laboratories of our university. The tag allows to purify and detect the protein in the host strain by using Ni-NTA columns or specific antibodies. | ||

Usage and Biology
The alcohol deshydrogenase catalyzes the oxidation reaction of many alcohols. In our case, it allows to oxidize fatty acids. ADH bacteria have a reverse function to that describe in the human body. It then produces alcohol by generating NAD+. This is called alcoholic fermentation.
Although E. coli has a native ADH, we decided to clone this one for better results. Indeed, the alcohol dehydrogenase of Bacillus stearothermophillus has a better affinity for the substrate but also a better enzymatic activity. The use of the latter could therefore optimize our yields of production.
Design
Thanks to Geneious software we have designed a gene with a promoter, a C-Myc and 6-His tag and a terminator. The promoter is inducible to arabinose. This allows a controlled expression of the synthetic gene to avoid any effect of toxicity. In addition, arabinose is an inexpensive inducer and very present in the laboratories of our university. The tag allows to purify and detect the protein in the host strain by using Ni-NTA columns or specific antibodies.
Manipulations
PCR amplification
Following the design of the synthetic gene, it is amplified by PCR thanks to the design of primers upstream and downstream of the sequence.

The migration was performed at 100 volts for 30 minutes in TAE 1X. The marker used during the migration is the NEB 1 kb Plus DNA Ladder. Lane 1 corresponds to the marker, lane 2 to the control without DNA, lane 3 to the amplified N-term ADR and lane 4 to the amplified C-term ADR.
The expected size of the fragment is about 1600 pb. The band obtained correspond to this size.
Enzymatic digestion
After amplification of the synthetic gene, sample is purified, the amplicons are digested with restriction enzymes EcoRI and PstI. Similarly for the cloning vector pSB1A3. The insert (N-term ADR or C-term) is then ligated into the plasmid.

We used the ADH (alcohol dehydrogenase) of BBa_K1021006 as a component of pSB-AA.
1. Test results of tolerance of engineered strains to ethanol and acetaldehyde
In this study, two engineering strains E.coli pSB-AA and E.coli pSB-AN were constructed to test their performance in degrading ethanol and acetaldehyde.
2. The activity of ethanol and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase and the content of coenzyme NAD+
In order to reflect the expression of functional genes of engineered strains E.coli pSB-AA and E.coli pSB-AN more directly, we detected the activities of various exogenous enzymes and the content of coenzyme NAD+ in different strains cultured in vitro. Results as shown in Figure 1, E.coli 1917 showed almost no activities of alcohol dehydrogenase, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase and NADH oxidase in the crude enzyme extracts of each bacterium, and the content of coenzyme NAD+ was very low. The ADH activity of E.coli pSB-AA was 47.91±3.12 U/mL, and the ALDH activity was 33.57±2.59 U/mL. No NADH oxidase activity was detected. However, the ADH activity of E.coli PSP-AN was 81.41±3.64 U/mL, the ALDH activity was 57.56±1.48 U/mL, and the nox activity was 14.4±2.29 U/mL. The content of coenzyme NAD+ was also significantly higher than that of E.coli pSB-AA. These results indicated that the expression of NAD synthetase gene nadE and NADH oxidase gene nox could contribute to the increase of the content of dehydrogenase coenzyme NAD in bacterial cells, thus improving the degradation ability of alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase.
3. Detection results of the tolerance of engineering strains to ethanol and acetaldehyde
The growth curves of engineered strains E.coli pSB-AA and E.coli pSB-AN in the medium containing different concentrations of ethanol and acetaldehyde were drawn to show the tolerance of engineered strains to ethanol and acetaldehyde. As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3, when ethanol concentration> 6%, acetaldehyde concentration> 0.3% would seriously inhibit the growth of E.coli 1917; When ethanol concentration> 8%, acetaldehyde concentration> The growth of E.coli pSB-AA was inhibited at 0.4%, and the tolerance of E.coli pSB-AA to ethanol and acetaldehyde was improved to a certain extent. And when the concentration of ethanol> 10%, acetaldehyde concentration> At 0.5%, E.coli pSB-AN began to inhibit the growth of engineered strain E.coli pSB-AN, indicating that the tolerance of E.coli pSB-AN to ethanol and acetaldehyde was significantly improved.
4. Test results of the ability of engineering strain to degrade ethanol and acetaldehyde
In order to alleviate the damage caused by excessive drinking, the ability of the engineered strain to degrade ethanol and acetaldehyde is crucial. Here, we detected the content changes of ethanol or acetaldehyde in the culture medium of different strains after growing in different concentrations of ethanol and acetaldehyde for 14 h, so as to measure the degradation ability of the strain to ethanol and acetaldehyde. As shown in Figure 3.3, the degradation efficiency was the highest when the ethanol content was 2% and the acetaldehyde content was 0.1%. The degradation rates of ethanol and acetaldehyde of the engineered strain E.coli pSB-AA were 54.3% and 41.4%, respectively. The degradation rates of ethanol and acetaldehyde of E.coli pSB-AN were 61.5% and 53.5% respectively. However, with the increase of ethanol and acetaldehyde concentration, the growth and metabolism of bacteria are also inhibited, so the degradation ability of bacteria to ethanol and acetaldehyde is gradually reduced.
