We have previously performed a systematic screening of single-gene knockout collection of Escherichia coli BW25113 (the Keio collection) to investigate the effect of cellular components on the activity of whole-cell catalysts (Zhou et al. Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. in press (2010)). In the present paper, the cpxA-deficient mutant of E.coli BW25113 was found to be able to enhance the activity of cytochrome P450s, including CYP154A1 of Streptomyces coelicolor, compactin 6β-hydroxylase of Streptomyces flavus A-177, vitamin D3 hydroxylase of Pseudonocardia autotrophica, and a mutant enzyme derived from P450 BM3 of Bacillus megaterium. The cytochrome P450 activities in the cpxA-deficient mutant were 1.8-7.9 times greater than those detected with the parental strain BW25113 (DE3). The cpxA-deficient mutant also exhibited β-galactosidase activity approximately 1.5-fold greater than did the parental strain, showing that the enhancing effect was not unique to the activity of cytochrome P450s. Promoter dependency analysis revealed that the enhanced activity of the enzymes was detectable only when the genes encoding the enzymes were expressed under the control of lactose-inducible promoters. The result of real-time PCR showed that the enhancement of the enzyme activities was attributed to increased transcriptional levels of the genes coding for the enzymes.

D003577 Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
