Synechocystis sp. PCC6803의 type II Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase gene(sll1556, Syidi2)의 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 ${\Delta}idi$인 E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$를 제작하고, 이 균주에서 cloning하고 발현시켰다. 라이코펜 합성 유전자들(crtE, crtB, and crtI)과 mevalonate pathway 유전자들(MvK1, MvK2, Mvd)를 함유한 ${\Delta}idi$ E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$ 균주를 mevalonate가 함유된 LB 배지에서 배양하면 mevalonate pathway 유전자들을 함유한 E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$균주는 mevalonate에 의해 생성된 isopentenyl diphosphate의 독성에 의해 매우 느린 성장을 보였다. 라이코펜 합성유전자들과 mevalonate 합성유전자들을 함유한 ${\Delta}idi$ E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$ 균주에 Syidi2를 도입한 결과, mevalonate가 함유된 LB배지에서 균체의 성장이 완전히 회복되었으며, 라이코펜이 합성되었음을 나타내는 붉은 균락이 형성되었다. 이에 따라, SyIdi1과 ECidi를 도입하여 비교한 결과, 라이코펜 합성 유전자들과 mevalonate pathway 유전자들을 함유한 ${\Delta}idi$ E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$ 균주 자체와 SyIdi1을 도입한 라이코펜 합성 유전자들과 mevalonate pathway 유전자들을 함유한 ${\Delta}idi$ E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$ 균주는 IPP의 독성에 의해 성장이 매우 느렸으나, SyIdi2, RSidi, HPidi, 및 ECidi를 함유하고 있는 ${\Delta}idi$ E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$ 균주는 균체의 성장과 라이코펜의 합성을 완전히 회복하였으며, 그중 가장 우수한 라이코펜 생합성 결과를 나타낸 것은 pSUP-LYCSyIdi2로서 균체당 라이코펜 생성량이 control 대비 2.8배이었다.

To further explore the molecular mechanism of triterpenoid biosynthesis and acquire high-value strain of Sanghuangporus baumii, the Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation (ATMT) system was studied. The key triterpenoid biosynthesis-associated gene isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase (IDI) was transformed into S. baumii by ATMT system. Then, the qRT-PCR technique was used to analyze gene transcript level, and the widely targeted metabolomics was used to investigate individual triterpenoid content. Total triterpenoid content and anti-oxidant activity were determined by spectrophotometer. In this study, we for the first time established an efficient ATMT system and transferred the IDI gene into S. baumii. Relative to the wild-type (WT) strain, the IDI-transformant (IT) strain showed significantly higher transcript levels of IDI and total triterpenoid content. We then investigated individual triterpenoids in S. baumii, which led to the identification of 10 distinct triterpenoids. The contents of individual triterpenoids produced by the IT2 strain were 1.76-10.03 times higher than those produced by the WT strain. The triterpenoid production showed a significant positive correlation with the IDI gene expression. Besides, IT2 strain showed better anti-oxidant activity. The findings provide valuable information about the biosynthetic pathway of triterpenoids and provide a strategy for cultivating high-value S. baumii strains.

이 연구의 목적은 생물공학적으로 이소프레노이드 생합성 유전자를 클로닝하여 이들을 형질전환시킨 대장균을 제조하여 이들을 숙주로 사용하여 아스타잔틴의 생산을 증가시키는 것이다. 본 연구진은 선행연구에서 Paracoccus haeundaensis로부터 아스타잔틴 생산에 관여하는 6개의 아스타잔틴 생합성 유전자군을 보고하였고, 이들 유전자들을 발현 벡타(pCR-XL-TOPO-Crt)에 재조합한 후 이 벡터를 대장균에 형질 전환시켜서 건조중량으로 400 ${\mu}g$/g의 아스타잔틴을 생산하였다. 아스타잔틴의 생산성을 증가시키기 위해서 대장균으로부터 이소프레노이드 생합성 경로에 관여하는 4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate reductase (lytB), farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthase (ispA), isopentenyl (IPP) diphossphate isomerase (idi) 유전자들을 클로닝하였고, 이들 유전자를 (pCR-XL-TOPOCrt-full)와 같이 대장균에 각각 공발현시켰다. idi 유전자와 아스타잔틴 생산에 관여하는 아스타잔틴 생합성 유전자군이 함께 형질 전환된 BL21(DE3) Codon Plus RIL 대장균를 배양하였을때, 건조중량으로 1,200 ${\mu}g$/g의 아스타잔틴을 생산하였다. 따라서 본 연구 결과, 이소프레노이드 생합성 유전자와 아스타잔틴 생합성 유전자군을 공발현 시킬 때 아스타잔틴의 생산이 3배 증가하였다.

The results of this study show that c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation was associated with the enhancement of docetaxel-induced cytotoxicity by simvastatin in DU145 human prostate cancer cells. To better understand the basic molecular mechanisms, we investigated simvastatin-regulated targets during simvastatin-induced cell death in DU145 cells using two-dimensional (2D) proteomic analysis. Thus, vimentin, Ras-related protein Rab-1B (RAB1B), cytoplasmic hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA synthase (cHMGCS), thioredoxin domain-containing protein 5 (TXNDC5), heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNP K), N-myc downstream-regulated gene 1 (NDRG1), and isopentenyl-diphosphate Delta-isomerase 1 (IDI1) protein spots were identified as simvastatin-regulated targets involved in DU145 cell death signaling pathways. Moreover, the JNK inhibitor SP600125 significantly inhibited the upregulation of NDRG1 and IDI protein levels by combination treatment of docetaxel and simvastatin. These results suggest that NDRG1 and IDI could at least play an important role in DU145 cell death signaling as simvastatinregulated targets associated with JNK activation.

Paenibacillus polymyxa E681 is known to be able to suppress plant diseases by producing antimicrobial compounds and to promote plant growth by producing phytohormones, and secreting diverse degrading enzymes. In spite of these capabilities, little is known regarding the flow of information from the bacterial strain to the barley roots. In an attempt to determine the flow of information from the bacterial strain to barley roots, the strain was grown in the presence and absence of barley, and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry were used. 2D-PAGE detected approximately 1,000 spots in the cell and 1,100 spots in the supernatant at a pH 4-10 gradient. Interestingly, about 80 spots from each sample showed quantitative variations. Fifty-three spots from these were analyzed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and 28 proteins were identified. Most of the cytosolic proteins expressed at higher levels were found in P. polymyxa E681 cells grown in the presence of barley rather than in the absence of barley. Proteins detected at a lower level in the surpernatant of P. polymyxa E68l cells grown in the presence of barley were lipoprotein, glucose-6-phosphate 1-dehydrogenase, heat-shock protein HtpG, spermidine synthase, OrfZ, ribonuclease PH, and coenzyme PQQ synthesis protein, and flagellar hook-associated protein 2 whereas proteins detected at a higher level in the surpernatant of P. polymyxa E681 cells grown in the presence of barley included D-alanyl-D-alanine ligase A, isopentenyl-diphosphate delta-isomerase, ABC transporter ATP-binding protein Uup, lipase. Many of the proteins belonging to plant-induced stimulons are associated with biosynthetic metabolism and metabolites of proteins and transport. Some of these proteins would be expected to be induced by environmental changes resulting from the accumulation of plant-secreted substances.

Antrodia cinnamomea, an edible and medicinal fungus with significant economic value and application prospects, is rich in terpenoids, benzenoids, lignans, polysaccharides, and benzoquinone, succinic and maleic derivatives. In this study, the transcriptome of A. cinnamomea cultured on the wood substrates of Cinnamomum glanduliferum (YZM), C. camphora (XZM), and C. kanehirae (NZM) was sequenced using the high-throughput sequencing technology Illumina HiSeq 2000, and the data were assembled by de novo strategy to obtain 78,729 Unigenes with an N50 of 4,463 bp. Compared with public databases, about 11,435, 6,947, and 5,994 Unigenes were annotated to the Non-Redundant (NR), Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG), respectively. The comprehensive analysis of the mycelium terpene biosynthesis-related genes in A. cinnamomea revealed that the expression of acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase (AACT), acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD), 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA), mevalonate pyrophosphate decarboxylase (MVD), and isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase (IDI) was significantly higher on NZM compared to the other two wood substrates. Similarly, the expression of geranylgeranyltransferase (GGT) was significantly higher on YZM compared to NZM and XZM, and the expression of farnesyl transferase (FTase) was significantly higher on XZM. Furthermore, the expressions of 2,3-oxidized squalene cyclase (OCS), squalene synthase (SQS), and squalene epoxidase (SE) were significantly higher on NZM. Overall, this study provides a potential approach to explore the molecular regulation mechanism of terpenoid biosynthesis in A. cinnamomea.
