Cloned(Commentary)

EC Number Cloned (Comment) Organism
2.4.1.17 gene IPUT1, functional enzyme overexpression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, coexpression with a human UDP-GlcA transporter, GIPCs from Saccharomyces cerevisiae do not contain GlcA. Production of GlcA-IPC in yeast Arabidopsis thaliana
2.4.1.17 IPUT1 overexpression in Saccharomyces Nicotiana benthamiana using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58-1 transfection method, coexpression with a glucuronosyltransferase, GUX1. Total glucosylceramide levels decrease slightly compared with the p19 control, while levels of GlcN-GlcA-IPC increase Nicotiana benthamiana

2.4.1.17 additional information introduction of Arabdiopsis thaliana IPUT1 gene together with genes for a UDP-glucose dehydrogenase from Arabidopsis thaliana and a human UDP-GlcA transporter into a yeast mutant deficient in the endogenous inositol phosphorylceramide (IPC) mannosyltransferase. In this engineered yeast strain, IPUT1 transfers GlcA to IPC Arabidopsis thaliana
2.4.1.17 additional information overexpression or silencing of IPUT1 in Nicotiana benthamiana results in an increase or a decrease, respectively, in IPC glucuronosyltransferase activity in vitro. Plants in which IPUT1 is silenced accumulate IPC, the immediate precursor, as well as ceramides and glucosylceramides. Plants overexpressing IPUT1 show an increased content of GIPCs. Mutations in IPUT1 are not transmitted through pollen, indicating that these sphingolipids are essential in plants. Silencing of the Nicotiana benthamiana IPUT1 homologue results in a reduction of the [14C]GlcA-IPC band to about 35% of that produced by GUS-silenced control microsomes Nicotiana benthamiana
