+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> The main goal of our project was to establish the construct which will help us to metabolize 7-ketocholesterol, consisting in the use of three specific enzymes, but for further applications we submitted them in single modules. This will serve as the basis of a future library for standardized work related to atherosclerosis. | ||

+ | |||
+ | <h2>Cholesterol Oxidase</h2> | ||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> This enzyme was first detected in <u>Chromobacterium sp.</u> We introduced it in a plasmid backbone with chloramphenicol resistance: pSB1C3. Its length is of 1871 nucleotides and its codons were optimized in order to use it on <u>E. coli</u>, it already included a stop codon for transcription, it was also modified by the addition of a glycosilation site (NIT) and the peptide signal of human S-cathepsin. | ||
+ | </p> <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h2>Oxoacyl Reductase</h2> | ||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> This enzyme was detected in <u>Rhodococcus jostii </u>. We introduced it in a plasmid backbone with chloramphenicol resistance: pSB1C3. Its length is of 1007 nucleotides and its codons were optimized in order to use it on <u>E. coli</u>, it already included a stop codon for transcription, it was also modified by the addition of a glycosilation site (NIT) and the peptide signal of human S-cathepsin. | ||
+ | </p> <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h2>7-dehydratase</h2> | ||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> This enzyme (7-alpha dehydratase) was detected in <u>Rhodococcus jostii</u> . We introduced it in a plasmid backbone with chloramphenicol resistance: pSB1C3. Its length is of 602 nucleotides and its codons were optimized in order to use it on <u>E.coli</u>, it already included a stop codon for trancription, it was also modified by the addition of a glycosilation site (NIT) and the peptide signal of human S-cathepsin. | ||
+ | </p> <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h2>Neomycin Resistance</h2> | ||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> This selective marker was obtained from an mammalian expression vector. NeoR's length is 855 nucleotides and it was isolated from pcDNA3.1(-)/myc-His A. | ||
+ | </p><br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h2>BGHPA</h2> | ||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> Bovine Growth Hormone Polyadenilation Signal for nuclease resistance. Translation terminator for eukaryotic cells. | ||
+ | </p><br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h2>PCMV</h2> | ||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-word;"> Constitutive promoter from Cytomegalovirus, this promoter works on eukaryotic cells, driving protein expression. | ||
