Dopamine is a hormone and neurotransmitter that plays a variety of important roles in the brain and body. It is an organic chemical substance in the catecholamine and phenethylamine family synthesized in plants and most animals. The synthesis of dopamine is accomplished by removing the carboxyl group from its chemical precursor L-DOPA molecule. L-DOPA, also known as levodopa and l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, is an amino acid produced and used in part of the normal biological process of humans and some animals and plants. Humans and some other animals utilize HpaB and HpaC enzymes to synthesize L-DOPA from tyrosine, one of the 20 standard amino acids in humans.

We successfully constructed the HpaBC-DDC plasmid and transformed it into E. coli BL21(DE3) and Vibrio natriegens. Expression of the enzymes HpaB, HpaC, and DDC were confirmed by an SDS-PAGE protein electrophoresis. However, the dopamine produced was often oxidized to polydopamine. We tried to produce dopamine in different conditions, including at different temperatures and different oxygen levels, but all of them failed. We learned that dopamine can polymerize in acidic, basic, as well as high-oxygen conditions.

Description

Fig 1. Dopamine Synthesis Pathway

Dopamine is a hormone and neurotransmitter that plays a variety of important roles in the brain and body. It is an organic chemical substance in the catecholamine and phenethylamine family synthesized in plants and most animals. The synthesis of dopamine is accomplished by removing the carboxyl group from its chemical precursor L-DOPA molecule. L-DOPA, also known as levodopa and l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, is an amino acid produced and used in part of the normal biological process of humans and some animals and plants. Humans and some other animals utilize HpaB and HpaC enzymes to synthesize L-DOPA from tyrosine, one of the 20 standard amino acids in humans.

By merging HpaC with J23102 promoter, RBS, HpaB, and DDC, the biobrick is successfully expressed in BL21(DE3) and Vibrio natriegens in the experiment of iGEM20_Shanghai_SFLS_SPBS, and dopamine is successfully produced in E. coli in the presence of L-tyrosine.


Experiments & Results

Successful production in E.coli BL21(DE3) and vibrio natriegens

We successfully constructed the HpaBC-DDC plasmid and transformed it into E. coli BL21(DE3) and Vibrio natriegens. Expression of the enzymes HpaB, HpaC, and DDC was confirmed by SDS-PAGE protein electrophoresis. However, the dopamine produced was often oxidized to polydopamine. We tried to produce dopamine in different conditions, including at different temperatures and different oxygen levels, but all of them failed. We learned that dopamine could polymerize in acidic, basic, as well as high-oxygen conditions.
