Genome-Wide Analysis of Biotin Biosynthesis in Eukaryotic Photosynthetic Algae

Abstract: Biotin is a cofactor responsible for carbon dioxide transfer in several carboxylase enzymes, which play a significant role in various metabolic reactions such as fatty acid synthesis, branched chain amino acid catabolism, and gluconeogenesis. Biotin is also involved in citric acid cycle, which is the process of biochemical energy generation during aerobic respiration. Though the function of biotin in the growth of algae has been extensively investigated, little is known about the biosynthetic routes of biotin … Show more

“…Optimization: light intensity (320 µmol photons/m 2 s), NaNO 3 (1700 mg/L), K 2 HPO 4 (34.6 mg/L) 22 µg/L day [103] Genome-wide analysis of biotin biosynthesis genes in 13 eukaryotic algae revealed the existence of 44 biotin biosynthesis-related enzymes, laying the groundwork for targeting key genes to improve biotin synthesis via genetic engineering approaches [104]. When the vitamin C (ascorbic acid) content of 11 microalgae was assessed, Chaetoceros gracilis (1.6% DCW) and Nannochloropsis oculata (0.75% DCW) exhibited the highest levels [93].…”

“…It plays a critical role as a co-factor in carbon dioxide metabolism for various carboxylases enzymes [ 71 ]. These enzymes, in turn, are involved in numerous metabolic processes such as gluconeogenesis, citric acid cycle, regulation of gene expression, branched chain amino acid catabolism and fatty acid biosynthesis [ 72 ]. Biotin heterocyclic system consists of an ureido branch merged with a tetrahydrothiophene (thiophane) branch.…”

“…A previous study isolated 44 biotin synthesis related genes from 14 photosynthetic algal genomes belonging to three groups, i.e. Chlorophyta-green algae (10), Rhodophyta-red algae (1), Prymnesiophyta (haplophyta) (1) and/heterokonphyta-diatoms (2) [ 72 ]. These 44 biotin biosynthesis related genes can synthesis biotin from pimeloyl-CoA through four step processes that are catalyzed by enzymes such as 7-keto-8-amino pelargonic acid synthase (KAPA), 7,8-diamino pelargonic acid synthase (DAPA)/dethiobiotin synthase, and biotin synthase, however, its source differs amongst different species [ 78 ].…”
