We codon optimized the sequence of nadE for <i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1 and determined its effect on intracellular NAD(H/+) concentration when co-expressed with nadD[BBa_K4595014], nadM[BBa_K4595015], and the experimental results proved that it could effectively increase the intracellular NAD(H/+) concentration.

We Compared to the wild type, the total amount of NAD(H/+) in <i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1(nadD-nadE-nadM) increased by 27.34%. This indicates that, <i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1(nadD-nadE-nadM) facilitates more efficient electron transfer.

In addition, we also determined the effect of nadE on the electroproduction capacity of <i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1 when co-expressed with nadD and nadM, and the results showed that the three co-expression could effectively increase the electroproduction efficiency of<i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1
iGEM21_NU_Kazakhstan team also worked with nadE genes as iGEM14_SCAU-China did. However, our nadE gene was extracted from Pseudomonas putida, thus, there are some differences in nucleotide sequence (https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K4083004). Nonetheless, the main function of NAD synthethase expressed from nadE is mostly universal for different organisms. Therefore, our team considered to contribute the informational data of NAD/NADH importance.

The NAD+ is important for metabolism in organisms. NAD+ can reduce into NADH during cell digestion like glucolysis or Krebs cycle. Thus, more available NAD+ can lead to faster substrate catabolism. Moreover, NADH interacts with the electron transport chain where it releases one electron and one proton. As an electron moves, more protons exit the bacterial membrane which increases the proton gradient. Finally, to reach equilibrium, protons enter the cell by ATP synthase, and one proton can generate up to 3 ATP molecules this way. Thus, one NADH that releases one proton can generate 3 ATP molecules. [1]

The results showed that <i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1(nadD-nadE-nadM) significantly higher discharge peak and prolonged high-efficiency discharge duration compared to the wild type. The highest out put voltage was up to 150.7 mV, with a 42.32% increase in the hightest power output . It is speculated that this could be attributed to the ability of<i>S. oneidensis</i> MR-1(nadD-nadE-nadM) to accelerate intracellular NADH synthesis, resulting in a higher power output.

This part encodes NAD synthetase
Open reading frame of nadE
Intracellular redox state of electricity active cells (EAC) is one of the most important physiological traits of extracellular electron transfer efficiency. In particular, the NAD+(H) pool size plays a central role of most metabolic pathways. By overexpressing the NAD synthetase, encoded be gene nadE and catalyzes the final step in de novo synthesis and salvage pathway of NAD biosynthesis (Fig. 1), the NAD+ level is increased thereby up-regulating genes whose products catalyze NADH synthesis. Therefore the augmented pool size of NAD+(H) result in promotion of NADH(the carrier of electrons)level, leading to high generation of intracellular releasable electrons and better electricity performance of EAC.
