TS-HydroxySugiol

This composite part consists of six expression cassettes, expressing SmGGPPS, SmCPS1, SmKSL, SmCPR, CYP76AH1, and CYP76AH3. This plasmid is engineered to synthesize tanshinone derivatives, which are key compounds derived from Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen) and are known for their potential therapeutic properties, particularly in cardiovascular treatments.

Sequence and Features

Usage and Biology

We combined the Level 1 vectors and constructed them into pYTK096 vector by BsmBI digestion and ligation, and successfully constructed the Level 2 vector.

Similarly, after transformation in E. coli DH10B identified positive monoclones by resistance, fluorescent labeling screening, and colony PCR.

We can see that the one that does not show green fluorescence is the recombinant plasmid we want, which corresponds to the colony PCR agar gel image, and the recombinant plasmid is successfully constructed. Next, we extracted the corresponding plasmid DNA after amplification and culture, and used it for transformation in yeast cells.

The constructed vector was linearized by NotI endonuclease and then transferred into BY4742 yeast receptor cells, which were screened by ura-deficient medium, and the yeast genomic DNA was extracted for PCR identification to determine the positive single clones.

Insert fragment PCR assay results:

The successful monoclonal plasmid was expanded in culture, shaken small overnight and preserved, and the strain was further fermented and cultured using liquid YPDA medium for 5 days and then centrifuged to collect the organisms.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were extracted with methanol by Ultrasonic Cell Disruption for 1 h. After centrifugation at low temperature, the supernatant extract was filtered with a filter membrane, and the filtered samples were transferred to liquid phase vials with lined tubes for Q-Exactive analysis, and the results were as follows:

TY9: as shown in Figure 17, the product of TY9 is mainly composed of two compounds 1,2 which appeared near 6 and 9 minutes, with molecular weights of 317 and 299 under positive mode, respectively. Through literature analysis and discussed with our instructor, we confirmed that the compound MW of 316 is 11-hydroxy-sugiol, and MW 298 has not been found to point to any specific substance at this point in time.
