An object of the present invention is to clone a gene which is involved in synthesis of fatty acid having trans-11-, cis-13-conjugated double bonds from fatty acid having a double bone at position Δ12. The present invention provides a gene having any one of the following nucleotide sequences:
(A) a nucleotide sequence encoding an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 12;
(B) a nucleotide sequence encoding an amino acid sequence comprising a deletion, addition or substitution of one or several amino acids with respect to the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ NO: 1 or 12, and having an ability of synthesizing fatty acid having trans-11-, cis-13-conjugated double bonds from fatty acid having a double bond at position Δ12;
(C) a nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 13;
(D) a nucleotide sequence comprising a deletion, addition or substitution of one or several nucleotides with respect to the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 13, and encoding a protein having an ability of synthesizing fatty acid having trans-11-, cis-13-conjugated double bonds from fatty acid having a double bond at position Δ12; and
(E) a nucleotide sequence hybridizing with the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 13 or a complementary sequence thereof under stringent conditions, and encoding a protein having an ability of synthesizing fatty acid having trans-11-, cis-13-conjugated double bonds from fatty acid having a double bond at position Δ12.
本发明的目的是克隆一种基因,该基因参与从在Δ12位有双键的脂肪酸合成具有反式-11-、顺式-13-共轭双键的脂肪酸。本发明提供了一种具有下列任何一种核苷酸序列的基因:
(A) 编码 SEQ ID NO: 1 或 12 所示氨基酸序列的核苷酸序列;
(B)编码氨基酸序列的核苷酸序列,该氨基酸序列包括相对于SEQ NO:1或12所示氨基酸序列的一个或几个氨基酸的缺失、添加或取代,并且具有从在Δ12位具有双键的脂肪酸合成具有反式-11-、顺式-13-共轭双键的脂肪酸的能力;
(C) SEQ ID NO: 2 或 13 中所示的核苷酸序列;
(D) 包含相对于 SEQ ID NO: 2 或 13 所示核苷酸序列的一个或多个核苷酸的缺失、添加或替换的核苷酸序列,该核苷酸序列编码一种蛋白质,该蛋白质具有从在Δ12 位具有双键的脂肪酸合成具有反式-11-、顺式-13-共轭双键的脂肪酸的能力;以及
(E) 与 SEQ ID NO: 2 或 13 所示核苷酸序列或其互补序列在严格条件下杂交的核苷酸序列,该核苷酸序列编码一种蛋白质,该蛋白质具有从在Δ12 位具有双键的脂肪酸合成具有反式-11-、顺式-13-共轭双键的脂肪酸的能力。
