项目摘要

Total synthesis of the anticancer agent Taxol is not practical and, for the foreseeable future, the supply of this diterpenoid drug, and its precursors for semisynthesis, must continue to rely on biological processes involving the isolation from yew (Taxus) species or cell cultures derived therefrom. Improvement of these biological methods of production must be based upon a detailed understanding of the complex pathway for Taxol biosynthesis, the enzymes which catalyze the sequence of reactions, and the genes for these enzymes, especially those responsible for slow steps, since the molecular genetic manipulation of the pathway can be expected to lead the production of the drug in high yield at more reasonable cost. The goal of improving Taxol production will be reached by determining the types and order of enzymatic steps from the diterpenoid branch-point intermediate geranylgeranyl diphosphate to the end- product, by cDNA cloning of the responsible genes, and by assessing the flux contribution of each step (and of diversionary side routes) by gene overexpression and suppression. Defining this multistep pathway is accomplished through the use of cell-free enzyme systems from induced yew (Taxus) cultured cells, combined with in vivo feeding studies, to determine the progression from simple to complex metabolites. This systematic approach has identified several early, intermediate and late steps of the Taxol pathway, and provided the tools for cDNA isolation with which thirteen pathway genes have been obtained and characterized by a broad range of cloning and expression strategies. The specific aims of this project are: 1. to clone and characterize the remaining five genes corresponding to intermediate enzymatic steps that complete modification of the taxoid core (Clp-hydroxylase, C9a-hydroxylase and C9 oxidase, C4,C20-epoxidase and oxomutase catalyzing formation the oxetane ring); 2. to clone and characterize the remaining two genes corresponding to the aroyl CoA ligase and C2'-hydroxylase needed to complete assembly of the C13 Af-benzoyl phenylisoserine side-chain; 3. to clone the corresponding genes and characterize the taxoid C7-0-, C9-O-, and C13-0-acetyltransferases which, along with taxoid 14p-hydroxylase, constitute major diversions of intermediate taxoids away from Taxol; and 4. to engineer Taxus cells for overexpression and suppression of each pathway (and side-route) gene, and to assess the influence on metabolic profile and yield as a means of ordering the sequence of reactions and defining flux controls at each step. Completion of these objectives will provide an understanding of Taxol biosynthesis and the foundation for multigene transgenic approaches to improve theproduction of Taxol, and of related intermediates for semisynthesis of Taxol and second generation taxoid drugs.

抗癌剂紫杉醇的全合成是不切实际的，并且在可预见的将来，二萜类药物及其半合成前体必须继续依赖生物过程，从紫杉（Taxus）物种或由其衍生的细胞培养物中分离。这些生物学方法的改进生产必须基于对紫杉醇生物合成的复杂途径的详细理解，催化反应顺序的酶，以及这些酶的基因，特别是那些负责缓慢步骤的酶，由于该途径的分子遗传操作可以预期导致药物的高产量，以更合理的成本生产。通过确定紫杉醇的种类和浓度，从二萜类分支点中间体香叶基香叶基二磷酸到末端的酶促步骤的顺序，通过对相关基因进行cDNA克隆，并通过评估每个步骤（以及转移侧途径）通过基因过表达和抑制。定义这个多步骤的途径是完成通过使用来自诱导的红豆杉（Taxus）培养细胞的无细胞酶系统，结合体内饲养，研究，以确定从简单到复杂的代谢物的进展。这一系统性方法确定了紫杉醇途径的几个早期，中期和晚期步骤，并提供了cDNA分离的工具，已经获得了13种途径基因，并通过广泛的克隆和表达策略进行了表征。该项目的具体目标是：1。克隆和表征其余五个基因，完成紫杉烷核心修饰的中间酶促步骤（Clp-羟化酶、C9 α-羟化酶和 C9氧化酶、C4、C20-环氧酶和氧代变位酶催化氧杂环丁烷环的形成）; 2.克隆并描述剩余的两个基因对应于芳酰基CoA连接酶和C2 '-羟化酶，其需要完成所述重组蛋白的组装。 C13 Af-苯甲酰基苯基异丝氨酸侧链; 3.为了克隆相应的基因并表征紫杉烷C7-0-， C9-O-和C13-O-乙酰基转移酶，它们与紫杉烷14 β-羟化酶一起沿着构成紫杉烷14 β-羟化酶的主要转移。远离紫杉醇的中间紫杉烷类化合物;和4.改造红豆杉细胞，途径（和侧路）基因，并评估对代谢谱和产量的影响，作为排序的手段，反应顺序和定义每一步的通量控制。这些目标的实现将为对紫杉醇生物合成的理解和多基因转基因方法提高紫杉醇产量的基础紫杉醇以及紫杉醇和第二代紫杉烷类药物半合成的相关中间体。
