Production of phenylacetyl-homoserine lactone analogs by artificial biosynthetic pathway in Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND Quorum sensing (QS) networks are more commonly known as acyl homoserine lactone (HSL) networks. Recently, p-coumaroyl-HSL has been found in a photosynthetic bacterium. p-coumaroyl-HSL is derived from a lignin monomer, p-coumaric acid, rather than a fatty acyl group. The p-coumaroyl-HSL may serve an ecological role in diverse QS pathways between p-coumaroyl-HSL producing bacteria and ...
متن کاملUrea production and putrescine biosynthesis by Escherichia coli.
Cultures of Escherichia coli B and K-12 produce urea during growth in minimal medium. Results of isotopic labeling experiments were consistent with the sole source of urea being from the conversion of arginine to putrescine. Since E. coli itself has no demonstrable urease activity, the rate of urea production is a measure of the flux through the arginine to putrescine pathway.
متن کاملProduction of curcuminoids from tyrosine by a metabolically engineered Escherichia coli using caffeic acid as an intermediate.
Curcuminoids are phenylpropanoids with high pharmaceutical potential. Herein, we report an engineered artificial pathway in Escherichia coli to produce natural curcuminoids through caffeic acid. Arabidopsis thaliana 4-coumaroyl-CoA ligase and Curcuma longa diketide-CoA synthase (DCS) and curcumin synthase (CURS1) were used to produce curcuminoids and 70 mg/L of curcumin was obtained from feruli...
متن کاملOptimization of the heme biosynthesis pathway for the production of 5-aminolevulinic acid in Escherichia coli
5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA), the committed intermediate of the heme biosynthesis pathway, shows significant promise for cancer treatment. Here, we identified that in addition to hemA and hemL, hemB, hemD, hemF, hemG and hemH are also the major regulatory targets of the heme biosynthesis pathway. Interestingly, up-regulation of hemD and hemF benefited ALA accumulation whereas overexpression of h...
متن کاملPrecursor-directed biosynthesis of curcumin analogs in Escherichia coli.
Curcuminoids, natural products in the rhizome of turmeric, show various biological activities, including antioxidant and antitumor activities. For this reason, curcuminoids have been focused on as potential pharmaceuticals. Exogenous supplementation with various carboxylate precursors in genetically engineered Escherichia coli cells carrying an artificially assembled pathway for curcuminoid bio...
