摘要

麦角生物碱是真菌天然产物,在农业和医药领域具有重要作用。我们使用异源表达和基因敲除方法研究了最近在雷伯曲霉(Aspergillus leporis)麦角生物碱生物合成基因簇中发现的主要促进剂超家族转运体基因(easT)的产物的潜在作用。我们选择了一株以前被设计为能积累麦角酸但不能有效地将前体农醉素转化为麦角酸或不能很好地分泌麦角酸的烟曲霉作为 easT 的表达宿主。在该菌株中表达 easT 会导致积累更多的途径中间产物,但却检测不到麦角酸。在表达 easT 的菌株中,麦角生物碱的分泌减少。EasT 定位于烟曲霉细胞质中离散的囊泡状结构中,在质膜中未检测到定位。当 EasT 被敲除后,麦角酰酰胺的积累相对于野生型有所减少。敲除突变体对麦角生物碱的分泌没有负面影响。这些数据表明,easT 编码的产物有助于麦角生物碱的积累,可能是通过在细胞区间运输中间产物,但在分泌麦角生物碱方面作用不大。

A Major Facilitator Superfamily Transporter Contributes to Ergot Alkaloid Accumulation but Not Secretion in Aspergillus leporis
Ergot alkaloids are fungal natural products with important roles in agriculture and medicine. We used heterologous expression and gene knockout approaches to investigate potential roles for the product of a major facilitator superfamily transporter gene (easT) recently found in an ergot alkaloid biosynthetic gene cluster in Aspergillus leporis. A strain of Aspergillus fumigatus previously engineered to accumulate lysergic acid, but which did not convert the precursor agroclavine to lysergic acid efficiently or secrete lysergic acid well, was chosen as an expression host for easT. Expression of easT in this strain resulted in accumulation of significantly more pathway intermediates but no detectable lysergic acid. Secretion of ergot alkaloids was reduced in the easT-expressing strain. EasT localized to discrete vesicle-like structures in the cytosol of A. fumigatus, with no localization detected in the plasma membrane. When easT was knocked out in A. leporis, accumulation of lysergic acid amides was reduced relative to the wild type. There was no negative effect on secretion of ergot alkaloids in the knockout mutant. The data indicate that easT encodes a product that contributes to accumulation of ergot alkaloids, perhaps by transporting intermediates between cellular compartments, but does not have a significant role in secreting ergot alkaloids.
