Cytochrome P450 gene (CYP)
Usage and Biology
CYP is a large protein complex responsible for the degrading of guaiacol, CYP enters researchers' field of vision mainly as a decomposing product of lignin. Past studies have found that there are several G+ bacteria that can use guaiacol as a carbon source. The first step of their metabolism is mainly catalyzed by cytochrome P450 (CYP), which generates catechol through demethylation. This step of demethylation usually requires some redox chaperone proteins to assist.
In an article from AMB Express in 2019, the authors did a very detailed study on the demethylation process of guaiacol. Their data shows that only two enzymes from the G+ bacteria Rhodococcus rhodochrous need to be prepared, namely Cytochrome P450 (WP_085469912 from R. rhodochrous J3) and Ferredoxin reductase (WP_085469913 from R. rhodochrous J3), and transfer them to G-bacteria Pseudomonas After putida EM42, with or without additional carbon source supplementation, the effective degradation of guaiacol can be achieved.
Therefore, we hope to transfer these two enzymes into Escherichia coli to express and decompose the guaiacol in the intestines of locusts.

The degradation pathway of guaiacol requires CYP and Ferredoxin Reductase to transform guaiacol to formaldehyde and catechol.
Characterization
We used SDS-PAGE to verify whether our engineered bacteria could express CYP. From the image below, column 3 and 4 are plasmid without induction; column 5 and 6 are plasmid with induction. And got the following results:
From the image, plasmid with induction produces enzymes.
we assume that the change of protein concentration in the external environment is related to the amount of gene expression, the rate of bacterial lysis, the rate of protein degradation, and the rate of locust intestinal peristalsis.
The concentration of the protein changes over time. The abscissa represents time, and the ordinate represents the protein concentration. It can be seen from the image that the protein increases rapidly after the bacterial self-lysis. After reaching a certain concentration, due to the degradation rate of the protein itself and the locust intestinal peristalsis. The rate decreases slightly, and the concentration increases with the next bacterial self-lysis, which forms a stable cycle that can release enzymes efficiently.
The predicted concentration of guaiacol accord with our goal.
