A composite part to express 4,5-DODA induced by IPTG, responsible for production of betalains

Description

c

Betalains are water-soluble nitrogen-containing pigments that are subdivided in red-violet betacyanins and yellow-orange betaxanthins. Due to glycosylation and acylation betalains exhibit a huge structural diversity. Betanin (betanidin-5-O--glucoside) is the most common betacyanin in the plant kingdom.

The biosynthesis of betalains in plants excludes that of anthocyanins. During the biosynthesis of betalains in the cytoplasm three enzymes are involved: Tyrosinase, 4,5-DOPA-extradioldioxygenase, and betanidin-glucosyltransferase. The amino acid L-tyrosine, which is enzymatically formed over the shikimate pathway from arogenic acid, is the precursor for the biosynthesis of L-DOPA. Tyrosine is hydroxylated by means of the enzyme tyrosinase to DOPA (I) that is formed to betalamic acid or to cyclo-DOPA. The biosynthesis of betalamic acid, which is the basic structure of betalains as follow: 4,5-DOPA-extradiol dioxygenase opens the cyclic ring of L-DOPA between carbons 4 and 5, thus producing 4,5-seco-DOPA (II). This intermediate product occurs naturally. Due to spontaneous intramolecular condensation between the amine group and the aldehyde group of 4,5-seco-DOPA betalamic acid is formed.

In order to make the production of the Betacyanin, Shanghai_SFLS_SPBS built the biobrick with 4,5-DODA and T7 promoter and added the substrate L-Dopa and 0.1mM IPTG to induce the promoter. The 4,5-seco-DOPA will spontaneously convert into Betalamic acid with the help of ascorbic acid(Vitamin C).And Dopaxanthin/Indoline-Betacyanin will be subsequently synthesized by adding the substrate of L-DOPA/Indoline. The biobrick was successfully expressed in E.coli BL21(DE3). The two kind of pigments were produced and application of the hair-dye process was successful as well.

Experiments & Results

Successful production in E.coli BL21(DE3)

The team members constructed the plasmid T7-4,5-DODA using Gibson Assembly. They added 0.1 mM IPTG for induction. Again, after 20 h culture at 37℃, 220 rpm, we centrifuged the cells, discarded the LB medium, and resuspended the cell pellet in sterilized water. They then cultured the cells at 20℃, 120 rpm for 102 h and acquired expected results. They did not test the production in Vibrio natriegens because the bacterial strain we acquired (ATCC 14048) does not have the T7 promoter.
