  • Brodelius, M.; Lundgren, A.; Mercke, P.; Brodelius, P.
    Fusion of farnesyldiphosphate synthase and epi-aristolochene synthase, a sesquiterpene cyclase involved in capsidiol biosynthesis in Nicotiana tabacum (2002), Eur. J. Biochem., 269, 3570-3577.

Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis construction of fusion proteins with farnesyl diphosphate synthase FPPS from Artemisia annua. The fusion enzymes produce epi-aristolochene from isopentenyl diphosphate through a coupled reaction. The Km values of FPPS and eAS for isopentenyl diphosphate and farnesyl diphosphate, respectively, are essentially the same for the single and fused enzymes. The bifunctional enzymes show a more efficient conversion of isopentenyl diphosphate to epi-aristolochene than the corresponding amount of single enzymes Nicotiana tabacum
