Characterization of gamma-Cadinene Enzymes in Ganoderma lucidum and Ganoderma sinensis from Basidiomycetes Provides Insight into the Identification of Terpenoid Synthases
ACS OMEGA(2022)
摘要
Enzymes boost protein engineering, directed evolution, and the biochemical industry and are also the cornerstone of metabolic engineering. Basidiomycetes are known to produce a large variety of terpenoids with unique structures. However, basidiomycetous terpene synthases remain largely untapped. Therefore, we provide a modeling method to obtain specific terpene synthases. Aided by bioinformatics analysis, three gamma-cadinene enzymes from Ganoderma lucidum and Ganoderma sinensis were accurately predicted and identified experimentally. Based on the highly conserved amino motifs of the characterized gamma-cadinene enzymes, the enzyme was reassembled as model 1. Using this model as a template, 67 homologous sequences of the gamma-cadinene enzyme were screened from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). According to the 67 sequences, the same gene structure, and similar conserved motifs to model 1, the gamma-cadinene enzyme model was further improved by the same construction method and renamed as model 2. The results of bioinformatics analysis show that the conservative regions of models 1 and 2 are highly similar. In addition, five of these sequences were verified, 100% of which were gamma-cadinene enzymes. The accuracy of the prediction ability of the gamma-cadinene enzyme model was proven. In the same way, we also reanalyzed the identified Delta(6)-protoilludene enzymes in fungi and (-)-alpha-bisabolol enzymes in plants, all of which have their own unique conserved motifs. Our research method is expected to be used to study other terpenoid synthases with a similar or the same function in basidiomycetes, ascomycetes, bacteria, and plants and to provide rich enzyme resources.
