Poly P -> NADP

Basic Description

This basic part encodes the NADK gene which is initially from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and we performed codon optimization on, is expressed in the PYYDT plasmid. This basic part is designed to facilitate the conversion of inorganic polyphosphate (PolyP) to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). The NADK enzyme is crucial for the phosphorylation of NAD to NADP, which is essential for various metabolic processes. NAD kinase is regarded as a key enzyme in NADP synthesis and, hence, in numerous cellular processes such as anabolic/biosynthetic pathways and protection against oxidative stress. In a sentence, it can convert Poly p to NADP. For the first time, we expressed this element in a strain of Shewanella and conducted codon optimization based on Shewanella.

Origin (Organism)

The NADK gene was sourced from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain.

Experimental Characterization and results

In our team’s previous research we found that the behavior of the modified Shewanella did not reach our expectation and the electron microscopic observation also showed an abnormal morphology of the bacterium, we postulated that too much PPK1 may lead to an abnormal charge distribution in the bacterium thus result in a decrease in the bacterium's activity and a reduction in its capacity for electricity production, so we planed to improve the situation by introducing different polyphosphate hydrolases which influence the phosphorus metabolism of Shewanella. Electricity production: Using half-cell reaction(electrochemistry) to measure the electricity production ability. Capacity to polymerize phosphorus: Conducting molybdate assays to determine Pi concentration. The expression of NADK showed relatively high phosphorus accumulation and electricity generation ability. Also, the ATP level is considerably enhanced.
