CYP2D6 gene for expression in the chloroplast for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick)


This composite part contains the PSAD-promotor (BBa_K4806010), the CTPPSAD-transit peptide (BBa_K4806014), the CYP2D6 coding sequence (BBa_K4806001), the HA-tag (BBa_K3002017)* for detection and the tRPL23-terminator (BBa_K3002006)*. This part is codon-optimized for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and was built as part of the CYPurify Collection. This level 2 part leads to potential detoxification of specific chemicals (Ohkawa & Inui, 2015).


Construct

Fig.1 Construct design
This construct was designed using the modular cloning system (MoClo).

The resistance cassette for paromomycin is already built in the level 2 vector pMBS808 we are using. The usage of this vector allows the direct assembly of level 0 parts to level 2 constructs, facilitating the cloning time (Niemeyer & Schroda, 2022).

Results

We confirmed that this construct is built correctly via agarose gel electrophoresis.

Fig.2 Test digest of CYP2D6 level 2 targeted to the chloroplast
We digested this level 2 MoClo part with the restriction enzymes SapI and NdeI.

The test digest in Fig.2 was compared to an in-silico digest. Together with the sequencing results we were able to demonstrate that our construct was built correctly.


We tried to detected the expression of CYP2D6 targeted to the chloroplast with HA-tag via immunoblotting.

Fig.3 Expression of CYP2D6 with the CTPPSAD-transit peptide
(a)Level 2 MoClo construct for expression of the enzyme CYP2D6 containing the CTPPSAD-tranist peptide with HA-tag was designed (see Fig.1 for part description)
(b) Picture of resulting western blot. The white arrow marks a cross reaction of antibodies. For reference, the UVM4 recipient strain and a strain expressing the HA-tagged ribosomal chloroplast 50S protein L5 (RPL5) were used as a negative and positive control, respectively

For detection the UVM4 strain was transformed with the construct in (a). 30 paromomycin-resistant transformants were cultivated in TAP medium and samples were taken after 3 days. Whole-cell proteins were extracted and analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting using an anti-HA antibody. The expression of CYP2D6 (~ 56 kDa) is not visible.
