Synthetic Operon Assembly and CRISPR Genome Editing

The assembly of synthetic operon in YEp352 was performed according to the BioBrick principles23 (link) described by Zelcbuch et al.24 (link) To further simplify the cloning process, a seamless, recombination-based cloning strategy was applied for the synthetic operon construction in YEplac181 using the ClonExpress II One Step Cloning Kit (Vazyme, Nanjing, China). The knockout of ROX1 and knockdown of ERG9 were achieved via CRISPR/Cas9 technologies.25 (link) For the CRISPR genome editing, yeast cells were pre-transformed with p414-TEF1p-Cas9-CYC1t plasmid (Addgene). All the PCR products were analyzed on 1% agarose gels and positive colonies were grown overnight for plasmid extraction using the Tianprep Rapid Mini Plasmid Kit (Tiangen, Beijing China) according to the manufacture's instructions. All clones were verified through the expression cassette sequencing (Sangon, China). The constructed plasmids containing the whole expression operon were chemically transformed into the yeast by S. cerevisiae EasyComp™ Transformation Kit (Invitrogen, CA, United States) and aliquots were plated on the corresponding auxotrophic minimal media. Table S4 lists the primers used to construct these plasmids and strains.

Heterologous Expression of CbFAD3 in Yeast

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The coding region of CbFAD3 was cloned into pYES2.0 (Invitrogen, USA) using specific primers (P13 and P14; Supplementary Table S1), to construct the expression plasmid pYES2-CbFAD3. pYES2-CbFAD3 and pYES2.0 were transformed into Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain INVSc1 (Invitrogen, USA) using S. cerevisiae EasyComp transformation kit (Invitrogen, USA). The yeast transformants were selected and cultured according to the method of Román et al. (2012) (link). When the OD600 of the culture reached 0.2–0.3, gene expression was induced by adding 2% (w/v) galactose. Yeast cells were harvested by centrifugation at 1500 g for 5 min at 4 °C and washed with distilled water. The extraction and SDS-PAGE of total yeast proteins were performed as described by Horvath and Riezman (1994) (link). The production of C18:3 was induced by adding 2% (w/v) galactose, 50 μM C18:2 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) and 0.1% (w/v) NP-40, and was measured after growth at 20 °C for 3 d.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
