GSMT is a plasmid gene (854 bp) that codes for the enzyme that catalyze the first reaction in the salt tolerant pathway that we are interested. GSMT stands for Glycine Sarcosine N-Methyl Transferase. It catalyzes the conversion from glycine to sarcosine, using SAM as a methyl donor. In our project, we have this GSMT synthesized using MR. Gene. Naturally, this gene can be found in Galdieria sulphuraria, an extremephile that establishes high resistance to osmotic stress as well as acidic, thermal stresses and toxic metals. We PCR amplified gene GSMT with iGEM designated cutting sites and ribosome binding sites and biobricked it with pSB1A2.

SDMT is a plasmid gene (900 bp) that codes for the enzyme that catalyze the first reaction in the salt tolerant pathway that we are interested. This enzyme of this pathway is SDMT, which stands for Sarcosine Dimethylglycine Methyl Transferase. It catalyzes two steps of methylation, both that of sarcosine and dimethylglycine, to our final product, betaine, again using SAM as the methyl donor. The gene we used came from Galdieria sulphuraria, an extremephile that establishes high resistance to osmotic stress as well as acidic, thermal stresses and toxic metals. In our project, we really appreciate that Center for Eukaryotic Structural Genomics at University of Wisconsin-Madison graciously gave us the plasmid containing this gene. We PCR amplified gene SDMT with iGEM designated cutting sites and ribosome binding sites and biobricked it with pSB1A2.

Three SAM molecules are used in the methylation of Glycine to Glycine betaine (trimethyl glycine). In our project Glycine betaine (an osmoprotectant) was synthesized in E. coli to increase salt tolerance. It was hypothesized that an over expression of metK would lead to an increased production of Glycine betaine.
