ABSTRACT
Objective To obtained the gene AcPKS1 of Antrodia camphorata, analyze using bioinformatics, and detect the condition of expressing in the different medium. Methods Polyketide synthases gene was obtained from the genome of A. camphorata through analyzing the genome, and the full length of the gene was obtained through designed the special primers including initiation codon and termination codon and the template using cDNA of A. camphorata, which named the gene AcPKS1, and using the bioinformatics analysis and expression profiles analysis in the different medium. Results The full length of AcPKS1 gene was 6 348 bp, including six introns and seven exons, and the expression region encoded 2 115 amino acids; the bioinformatics analysis showed that AcPKS1 was a kind of nonreduced PKS of type in fungi, the domains was SAT-KS-PT-ACP-ACP-TE, and the enzyme catalyzed a new kind of cyclization in the process of polyketides biosynthesis; The expression profiles revealed that glucose was necessary during the expression of AcPKS protein, and the expression quantity of the AcPKS1 protein basically proportion to the content of glucose. Conclusion The result of this text has applied foundation to identify the polyketide synthase gene and take full advantage genomic resources of A. camphorata.
