Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
A288F significant loss of lycopaoctaene production when compared to wild-type. Increased residue size in the mutant blocks binding of geranylgeranyl diphosphate in the S1 pocket Botryococcus braunii
M180L mutant retains the ability to produce lycopaoctaene Botryococcus braunii
additional information mutating Ser276 and Ala288 residues to those found in human squalene synthase largely converts LOS from lycopaoctaene production to C30 squalene production Botryococcus braunii
S276Y significant loss of lycopaoctaene production when compared to wild-type. Increased residue size in the mutant blocks binding of geranylgeranyl diphosphate in the S1 pocket Botryococcus braunii
S276Y/A288F mutant shows a drastic reduction in the ability to produce lycopaoctaene and C35H58 compared to wild-type enzyme Botryococcus braunii
T65V mutant retains the ability to produce lycopaoctaene Botryococcus braunii
T65V/A288F when comparing the M7 double mutant to the parent A288F background, T65V/A288F does not show a difference in lycopaoctaene production, but C35H58 production is slightly increased and squalene formation is significantly reduced Botryococcus braunii
T65V/M180L activity of the mutant enzyme is similar to that of the wild-type enzyme Botryococcus braunii
T65V/M180L/A288F mutant shows activity similar to that of the M4 parent background Botryococcus braunii
T65V/M180L/S276Y A288F in comparison to the M9 parent background, the mutant enzyme shows a further reduction in C35H58 production and no significant change in lycopaoctaene and squalene formation Botryococcus braunii
T65V/M180L/S276Y/A288F/V289C in comparison to the M9 parent background, the mutant enzyme shows a further reduction in C35H58 production and no significant change in lycopaoctaene and squalene formation Botryococcus braunii
V289C mutant retains the ability to produce lycopaoctaene Botryococcus braunii
V289C/S276Y for the V289C/S276Y double mutant, in comparison to the S276Y parent background, a small increase in C35H58 production is observed, whereas the activities for lycopaoctaene and squalene production remain the same Botryococcus braunii
