Expression of soluble Saccharomyces cerevisiae alcohol dehydrogenase in Escherichia coli applicable to oxido-reduction bioconversions

2014

Six-carbon aldehydes and alcohols belong to flavours and fragrances with wide application in the food, feed, cosmetic, chemical and pharmaceutical sectors. In the present study, we prepared the expression system for production of recombinant yeast alcohol dehydrogenase 1 (YADH1) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae which is suitable also for catalysis of the interconversion of C-6 aldehydes and alcohols. We have demonstrated that an effective three-step strategy can overcome the insolubility problems during YADH1 production in Escherichia coli. We used trxB and gor deficient expression strain, decreased concentration of isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside and lowered temperature to 20°C during induction. Finally, kinetic parameters of recombinant YADH1 were determined and we concluded it is a promising enzyme also for the interconversion of C-6 alcohols/aldehydes in green note volatile production.
