Part:BBa_K2856001
Bifunctional glutamate-cysteine ligase/glutathione synthase (gshF)
The BBa_K2856001 harbors a coding sequence of bifunctional glutamate--cysteine ligase/glutathione synthase (gshF) derived from S.agalactiae. Codon-optimization has been made for Lactococcus Lactis. gshFp catalyzes the conversion of Cys,Glu and Gly to GSH.
Usage and Biology
Bifunctional glutamate--cysteine ligase/glutathione synthase (gshF) is an enzyme involved and responded to synthetic reaction of GSH.In this reaction,one Cys and one Glu are converted to one γ-GC,then one γ-GC and one Gly are converted to one GSH.(Figure 1) The Lactococcus Lactis NZ9000 has inability to synthesis GSH.In our project,we construct a plasmid harboring gshF in order to produnce GSH in Lactococcus Lactis NZ9000.
Protein Analysis
Validation of GSH by HPLC analysis
To further confirm the synthetic GSH in Lactococcus lactis, HPLC was performed to analyze the product. GSH was identified on the basis of retention times related to standard sample. According to the retention time of standard GSH sample, GSH compound of extracts from engineered Lactococcus lactis can be confirmed.
