| Abstract: |
| The cDNA of the delta-12 fatty acid desaturase gene, IgFAD2, was cloned from the marine microalgae Isochrysis galbana, a species capable of producing docosahexaenoic acid. Sequence analysis indicated that the open reading frame measured a length of 1 158 bp and encoded 386 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 42.8 kDa and an isoelectric point of 9.2. Computational analysis of the protein sequence of IgFAD2 showed typical features of membrane-bound desaturase such as three conserved histidine boxes along with four membrane-spanning regions that were universally present among plant desaturases. Quantitative real-time PCR results showed that the abundance of IgFAD2 transcript was significantly upregulated under different environmental stresses including low temperature (15℃), high salinity (salinity of 62 and 93), and nitrogen starvation (220 μmol/L). Heterologous expression indicated that yeast cells transformed with a plasmid construct containing IgFAD2 could convert endogenous oleic acid (18:1Δ9, OA) into linoleic acid (18:2Δ9, 12, LA). These findings confirm that I. galbana IgFAD2 plays important roles in the biosynthetic pathways of unsaturated fatty acids. |
| 中文摘要: |
| 球等鞭金藻(Isochrysis galbana)是一类富含二十二碳六烯酸的海洋单细胞微藻。本研究利用SMART RACE技术成功克隆了球等鞭金藻的Δ12脂肪酸去饱和酶基因全长序列(IgFAD2),其开放阅读框(ORF)全长1,158 bp,编码386个氨基酸,相对分子质量为42.80 kDa,等电点为9.20。蛋白序列分析表明,含有3个高度保守的组氨酸簇并具有4个明显的跨膜α螺旋区,具有脂肪酸去饱和酶家族的典型特点。荧光实时定量PCR分析表明,在低温(15℃)、高盐(62‰和93‰)和N限制(220 μmol/L)条件下IgFAD2基因表现为上调表达。异源表达分析表明,含有IgFAD2基因表达载体的酵母菌株积累了C18:2Δ9,12。该研究结果表明球等鞭金藻的Δ12脂肪酸去饱和酶基因在不饱和脂肪酸合成代谢过程中具有重要作用。 |
