中文摘要In this study, a cDNA encoding a novel acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT)-like protein is identified and isolated from the diatom microalga Phaeodactylum tricornutum (PtDGAT3). Analysis of the sequence reveals that ptDGAT3 cDNA encodes a protein of 504 amino acids with a molecular mass of 64.5 KDa. The putative ptDGAT3 protein has two catalytic domains: a wax ester synthase-like acyl-CoA acyltransferase domain and a bacteria-specific acyltransferase domain, which shows higher similarity to the DGAT3 of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus than reported DGAT1 or DGAT2 from high plants or algae. Its activity was confirmed by heterologous expression of PtDGAT3 in a neutral lipid-deficient quadruple mutant yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae H1246. The recombinant yeast restored the formation of a lipid body and displayed a preference to the incorporation of unsaturated C-18 fatty acids into triacyglycerol (TAG). This is the first characterized algal DGAT3 gene, giving further evidence to the occurrence of a DGAT3-mediated TAG biosynthesis pathway.
