Improved protein glycosylation enabled heterologous biosynthesis of monoterpenoid indole alkaloids and their unnatural derivatives in yeast
With over 3000 reported structures, monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) constitute one of the largest alkaloid groups in nature, including the clinically important anticancer drug vinblastine and its semi-synthetic derivatives from Catharanthus roseus (Madagascar’s periwinkle). With the elucidation of the complete 28-step biosynthesis for anhydrovinblastine, it is possible to investigate the heterologous production of vinblastine and other medicinal MIAs. In this study, we successfully expressed the flavoenzyme O-acetylstemmadenine oxidase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker’s yeast) by signal peptide modification, which is a vinblastine biosynthetic gene that has not been functionally expressed in this system. We also reported the simultaneous integration of ∼18 kb MIA biosynthetic gene cassettes as single copies into four genomic loci of baker’s yeast by CRISPR-Cas9, which enabled the biosynthesis of vinblastine precursors catharanthine and tabersonine from the feedstocks secologanin and tryptamine. We further demonstrated the biosynthesis of fluorinated and hydroxylated catharanthine and tabersonine derivatives using our yeasts, which showed that the MIA biosynthesis accommodates unnatural substrates, and the system can be further explored to produce other complex MIAs.
期刊介绍:
Metabolic Engineering Communications, a companion title to Metabolic Engineering (MBE), is devoted to publishing original research in the areas of metabolic engineering, synthetic biology, computational biology and systems biology for problems related to metabolism and the engineering of metabolism for the production of fuels, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. The journal will carry articles on the design, construction, and analysis of biological systems ranging from pathway components to biological complexes and genomes (including genomic, analytical and bioinformatics methods) in suitable host cells to allow them to produce novel compounds of industrial and medical interest. Demonstrations of regulatory designs and synthetic circuits that alter the performance of biochemical pathways and cellular processes will also be presented. Metabolic Engineering Communications complements MBE by publishing articles that are either shorter than those published in the full journal, or which describe key elements of larger metabolic engineering efforts.
