Cloning and characterization of squalene synthase and cycloartenol synthase from Siraitia grosvenorii
Mogrosides and steroid saponins are tetracyclic triterpenoids found in Siraitia grosvenorii. Squalene synthase (SQS) and cycloartenol synthase (CAS) are key enzymes in triterpenoid and steroid biosynthesis. In this study, full-length cDNAs of SgSQS and SgCAS were cloned by a rapid amplification of cDNA-ends with polymerase chain reaction (RACE-PCR) approach. The SgSQS cDNA has a 1254 bp open re...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, expression, and characterization of the cDNA for the rat hepatic squalene synthase.
Amino acid sequence information was obtained for the NH2 terminus, and for endogenous peptides generated by trypsin digestion, of a purified, truncated form of rat hepatic squalene synthase (RSS, EC 2.5.1.21) (Shechter, I., Klinger, E., Rucker, M. L., Engstrom, R. G., Spirito, J. A., Islam, M. A., Boettcher, B. R., and Weinstein, D. B. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 8628-8635). Degenerate primers, ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of a cysteine synthase cDNA from Arabidopsis thaliana.
Cys biosynthesis in higher plants occurs by a process similar to that known in microorganisms (Kredich, 1987). Cys synthase [O-acetylserine (thio1)-lyase, EC 4.2.99.81 catalyzes the formation of Cys from O-acetylserine and free or carrier-bound sulfide. Cys synthase has been purified from various plants and microorganisms and has been shown to have a molecular mass of 52 to 70 kD. The plant enz...
