Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis carboxylic acid reductases (CARs) catalyze the conversion of carboxylic acids to aldehydes, which are a valuable class of chemicals for many consumer and industrial applications. CARs generally exhibit broad substrate specificity that encompasses aromatic, aliphatic, and di/tri-carboxylic acids, enabling the development of biosynthetic pathways to a wide array of potential aldehyde products. De novo biosynthesis utilizing CARs have produced industrially relevant products including aromatic aldehydes, fatty and aromatic alcohols, and alkanes. De novo synthetic pathways implementing CARs have enabled the production of sustainable aldehyde products or utilized highly reactive aldehydes as intermediates in the production of chemicals including amines, alcohols, and alkanes. Aromatic aldehydes, such as vanillin, benzaldehyde, and cinnamaldehyde are particularly valuable in the fragrance and flavoring industries and are produced from petroleum feedstocks in large quantities.

DNA and amino acid sequence determination and analysis, recombinant expression in Escherichia coli resulting in decreased activity due to a lack of post-translational phosphopantetheinylation of a serine group in the recombinant CAR that is necessary for activity. Coexpression with the recombinant phosphopantetheinyl transferase (PPTase) from Bacillus subtilis (Sfp) or cell-free extracts from Nocardia iowensis containing native PPTase converted niCAR to its holoenzyme state, increases the enzyme activity 20fold.

an aromatic aldehyde + NADP+ + AMP + diphosphate = an aromatic acid + NADPH + H+ + ATP carboxylic acid and ATP are first bound in the A-domain, wherein the alpha-phosphate of ATP is attacked by the acid, releasing diphosphate and forming an acyl-adenylate complex. The CAR enzyme then undergoes a domain shift into a thiolation state where the adenylate is then attacked by the thiol group on the phosphopantetheine arm at the carbonyl carbon, forming a thioester and releasing AMP. The CAR enzyme then undergoes another domain shift where the phosphopantetheine arm is exposed in the R-domain. Finally, the thioester is reduced by NADPH, producing the aldehyde product while returning the phosphopantetheine arm to its thiol form Aspergillus niger

More the structure of CARs is characterized through three functional domains: an N-terminal adenylation domain (A-domain), a thiolation or peptidyl carrier protein domain (T-domain), and a C-terminal reduction domain (R-domain). Structure comparisons, overview. The A-domains of CARs are members of the ANL superfamily of adenylating enzymes. The T-domain is between 80 and 120 residues in length and is highly dynamic in nature, due to the flexible linker regions connecting the alpha helix bundle to neighboring domains in NRPSs and CARs. Domain crystal structures of CARs have demonstrated the dynamic nature of the T-domain, with the activated phosphopantetheinyl-serine positioned away from A-domains in the adenylation state (ATP bound) and situated between 20-50 A from A-domains in the thiolation state (AMP bound). While the T-domain is flexible, its short amino acid length and current domain crystal structures indicate that domain shifts involve dynamic rearrangement in both the A- and R-domains as well. Reduction domain structure and activity, molecular dynamics (MD) study Neurospora crassa

physiological function CARs, or aryl-aldehyde oxidoreductases, are Mg2+-dependent multi-domain enzymes that irreversibly catalyze the reduction of carboxylic acids to aldehydes at the cost of one ATP and one NADPH. CARs have a broad substrate scope, encompassing a wide range of aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids Neurospora crassa

CARs have a broad substrate scope, encompassing a wide range of aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids. Enzyme CAR from Mycobacterium marinum (mmCAR) reduces a number of aliphatic acids ranging from C3 to C18 Mycobacterium marinum
physiological function CARs, or aryl-aldehyde oxidoreductases, are Mg2+-dependent multi-domain enzymes that irreversibly catalyze the reduction of carboxylic acids to aldehydes at the cost of one ATP and one NADPH. CARs have a broad substrate scope, encompassing a wide range of aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids. The purified enzyme from Nocardia iowensis reduces a broader range of substituted aromatic acids in addition to dicarboxylic acids of the citric acid cycle, resulting in a branding of the aryl-aldehyde oxidoreductase class more broadly as carboxylic acid reductases (CARs) Nocardia iowensis
