GENERAL INFORMATION

UNIPROT
COMMENTARY
LITERATURE
evolution
the enzyme is a member of the short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family of enzymes. The nicotinamide moiety and the substrate-binding pocket are covered by a loop (residues 265-279), on top of which lies a large flap-like domain (residues 105-140). This configuration appears to be a combination of the two common structural themes found in other members of the short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family.

salR, DNA and amino acid sequence determination and analysis, overexpression of the His-tagged enzyme in Escherichia coli
salutaridine synthase (PsSAS), salutaridine reductase (PsSAR) and salutaridinol acetyltransferase (PsSAT) are functionally coexpressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and optimization of the pH conditions allowed for productive spontaneous rearrangement of salutaridinol-7-O-acetate and synthesis of thebaine from (R)-reticuline. A 7-gene pathway for the production of codeine and morphine from (R)-reticuline is reconstituted. Yeast cell feeding assays using (R)-reticuline, salutaridine or codeine as substrates show that all enzymes are functionally coexpressed in yeast and that activity of salutaridine reductase and codeine-O-demethylase likely limit flux to morphine synthesis. The results of this study describe a significant advance for the synthesis of morphinans in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and pave the way for their complete synthesis in recombinant microbes
