摘要

Geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase (GGPS) catalyzes the biosynthesis of geranylgeranyl diphosphate, a key precursor for carotenoid biosynthesis. In this study, a full-length cDNA encoding GGPS from Dunaliella bardawil (DbGGPS) was isolated by rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) for the first time. The full-length cDNA of DbGGPS was 1814 bp, containing a 1074 bp ORF encoding 357 amino acids with a calculated mass of 38.88 kDa. Analysis of DbGGPS genomic DNA revealed that it contained 10 exons and 9 introns. It was predicted that DbGGPS possessed a 48 amino acid transit peptide at its N terminus. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that DbGGPS was a member of a group of polyprenyltransferases with five conserved domains and two highly conserved aspartate-rich motifs. Using heterologous expression, carotenoid complementation assay, and gene deletion analysis, it was shown that the coding region of DbGGPS encodes a functional GGPS. This provides new gene sources for carotenoid genetic engineering.
