Disease relevance of FDH1

  • Enzymatically active FDH was produced to 15% of soluble E. coli protein [1].
  • To confirm the hypothesis of a thiol-coupled inactivation process, both cysteine residues in the primary structure of the enzyme have been exchanged by site-directed mutagenesis using a homology model based on the 3D structure of FDH from Pseudomonas sp. 101 and from related dehydrogenases [2].
  • An expression system has been developed for the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha and used to co-express both the L (preS1-S2-S) and S hepatitis B surface antigens (HBsAg) under the control of strong methanol-inducible promoters derived from the methanol oxidase and from the formate dehydrogenase genes [3].

Associations of FDH1 with chemical compounds

  • Although the growth of the fdh1 delta mutant was impaired and the level of formate was higher in the fdh1 delta mutant than in the wild-type strain, the growth defect caused by FDH1 gene disruption was small and less severe than that caused by growth on methanol [12].
  • Induction of FDH1 was not repressed in the presence of glucose when cells were grown on methylamine, choline, or formate, and expression of FDH1 was shown to be regulated at the mRNA level [12].
  • Expression of FDH1 was found to be induced by choline or methylamine (used as a nitrogen source), as well as by methanol (used as a carbon source) [12].
  • Cis-acting elements sufficient for induction of FDH1 expression by formate in the methylotrophic yeast Candida boidinii [8].
  • Growth on methylamine or choline as a nitrogen source in a batch culture was compared between the wild type and the fdh1 delta mutant [12].
 

Other interactions of FDH1

  • Irrespective of whether induction was achieved with methanol or formate, the UAS-FM element enhanced the level of induction of the FDH1 promoter in a manner dependent on the number of copies, but independent of their orientation, and also converted the ACT1 promoter from a constitutive into an inducible element [8].
