- 33. Characterization of diterpene synthase genes in Aspergillus oryzae
抄録
Fungi produce diterpenes exhibiting phytohormone-related activities, such as gibberellin and fusicoccin. We identified a diterpene synthase gene PaFS, which is responsible for fusicoccin biosynthesis, in the mycelium of fusicoccin-producing fungus Phomopsis amygdali (Toyomasu et al., PNAS, 104: 3084-3088, 2007). PaFS (719 amino acids) possesses the diterpene cyclase domain at N-terminus and prenyltransferase domain at C-terminus. Our database search suggested that PaFS homologues exist in genome DNA of several fungal species. Among them, we found two PaFS homologous genes in Aspergillus oryzae genome database. It has been believed that A. oryzae produces few secondary metabolites including terpenoids. In this study, we characterize the two homologues, A. oryzae diterpene synthase like 1(AoDSL1) and AoDSL2. AoDSL1 contained a stop codon in region encoding prenyltransferase domain probably because of naturally occurred nonsense mutation, and is perhaps expressed as a truncated enzyme composed of N-terminal 412 amino acid residues. AoDSL2 encoded 728 amino acid residues, in which a successive Asp of DDxxD motif in the prenyltransferase domain was substituted by AN (position 482-483). These possible naturally occurred mutations perhaps resulted in loss of prenyltransferase activities. Recombinant AoDSL1 converted GGDP into two unknown diterpene cyclic hydrocarbons. The effects of site directed mutagenesis of possible naturally occurred mutation on enzyme activity will be presented.
