摘要：1-Deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase (DXS) is the first enzyme in plastidial methylerythritol phosphate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. With primers designed according to seedling transcriptome data, we cloned a full-length cDNA fragment of DXS gene from Lepidium apetalum by PCR amplification, and designate it as LaDXS (GenBank accession no. KU314760). The gene contains a 2148-bp ORF and encodes a protein with 715 amino acids. Recombinant LaDXS protein was successful expressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3). Cloning and prokaryotic expression of LaDXS is important for further studies of isoprenoid biosynthesis in L. apetalum.
