Abstract

The difficulty in functional expression of CYP725A4 in heterogeneous prokaryotic hosts such as E.coli is a key bottleneck of the heterologous biosynthesis of taxol.In this paper,bioinformatic strategies were employed to analyze the hydrophobic profile and the transmembrane helices of CYP 725A4 sequence,and a molecular phylogenetic tree of CYP 725A4 was constructed.Then,based on the results,the tertiary structures of native and N-terminal truncated CYP 725A4 were reconstructed via the homology modeling,and similar operations were performed for native and truncated versions of cytochrome P450 reductase used for the functional expression of CYP 725A4.PROCHECK results show that the constructed structure models are all reliable.
