Improving 10-deacetylbaccatin III-10-β-O-acetyltransferase catalytic fitness for Taxol production
The natural concentration of the anticancer drug Taxol is about 0.02% in yew trees, whereas that of its analogue 7-β-xylosyl-10-deacetyltaxol is up to 0.5%. While this compound is not an intermediate in Taxol biosynthetic route, it can be converted into Taxol by de-glycosylation and acetylation. Here, we improve the catalytic efficiency of 10-deacetylbaccatin III-10-O-acetyltransferase (DBAT) o...
متن کاملEffects of different elicitors on 10-deacetylbaccatin III-10-O-acetyltransferase activity and cytochrome P450 monooxygenase content in suspension cultures of Taxus cuspidata cells
The effects of four elicitors, including 100 μmol/l MeJA (methyl jasmonate), 40 μl/l hydrogen peroxide (30%, w/w), 80 mg/l SA (salicylic acid) and 0.4 g/l F3 (fungal elicitor), on suspension cultures of Taxus cuspidata were studied. After addition of the above four elicitors, the enzyme activity of 10-DBAT (10-deacetylbaccatin III-10-O-acetyltransferase) was induced and reached its maximum of 5...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of a 10-deacetylbaccatin III-10-O-acetyl transferase cDNA from Taxus and functional expression in Escherichia coli.
The cDNA clone for a 10-deacetylbaccatin III-10-O-acetyl transferase, which catalyzes formation of the last diterpene intermediate in the Taxol biosynthetic pathway, has been isolated from Taxus cuspidata. By using consensus sequences from an assembly of transacylases of plant origin and from many deduced proteins of unknown function, a homology-based PCR cloning strategy was employed to amplif...
متن کاملFatal poisoning with Taxus baccata: quantification of paclitaxel (taxol A), 10-deacetyltaxol, baccatin III, 10-deacetylbaccatin III, cephalomannine (taxol B), and 3,5-dimethoxyphenol in body fluids by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
This method development was to confirm the fatal ingestion of toxic yew plant material in postmortem samples (stomach content, urine, femoral blood, cardiac blood, bile, and brain tissue) collected from a 22-year-old man who committed suicide by ingesting yew leaves. The analytical method was based on a liquid-liquid extraction under alkaline conditions followed by LC-MS-MS analysis. Chromatogr...
متن کاملO-11: N-a-acetyltransferase 10 Protein Regulates DNA Methylation and Embryonic Development
Background Genomic imprinting is a heritable and developmentally essential phenomenon by which gene expression occurs in an allele-specific manner1. While the imprinted alleles are primarily silenced by DNA methylation, it remains largely unknown how methylation is targeted to imprinting control region (ICR), also called differentially methylated region (DMR), and maintained. Here we show that ...
