Abstract:
The Y118A、Y118F、Y118T、S378A、S378T、H310A、H310R mutants of Candida albicans sterol 14?-demethylase (CACYP51) were constructed and heterologously expressed in D12667, the reconstructed strain with the deletion of CYP51 gene of the Y12667. With the strains obtained and microsome enzymes separated, the western blot and the ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometry were used to qualitative and quantitative detect the expressed protein, the GC-MS was used to detect the metabolism activity of the protein. The results showed that, the target protein expressed successfully in the reconstructed strains, with the expression level up to 25% of the total microsome proteins. The results also showed that, the wild type protein had the catalytic activity to its nature substrate. While after alteration the wild gene with Y118A、Y118F、Y118T、S378A、S378T、H310A、H310R by a single base substitution, the catalytic activity of protein markedly decreased respectively. So the wild type and mutation CYP51 were expressed successfully in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the expression products preserved the activity to metabolism their nature substrate.
