In this work, we attempted to synthesize HOMOERIODICTYOL (cas 107657-60-3) by transferring one methyl group of S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM) to eriodictyol using flavone 3′-O-methyltransferase ROMT-9, which was produced by recombinant Yarrowia lipolytica. Specifically, the ROMT-9 gene from rice was synthesized and cloned into the multi-copy integrative vector pINA1297, and was further expressed in Y. lipolytica with a growth phase-dependent constitutive promoter hp4d. The highest ROMT-9 activity reached 5.53 U/L after 4 days of culture in shake flask. The optimal pH and temperature of the purified ROMT-9 were 8.0 and 37 °C, respectively. The purified enzyme was stable up to 40 °C, and retained more than 80% of its maximal activity between pH 6.5 and 9.0. The recombinant ROMT-9 did not require Mg2+ for catalysis, while was completely inhibited in the presence of 5 mM Zn2+, Cu2+, Ba2+, Al3+, or Ni2+. The purified ROMT-9 was used to synthesize homoeriodictyol, and the maximal transformation ratio reached 52.4% at 16 h under the following conditions: eriodictyol 0.2 g/L, ROMT-9 0.16 g/L, SAM 0.2 g/L, CH3OH 6% (v/v), temperature 37 °C, and pH 8.0. This work provides an alternative strategy for efficient synthesis of homoeriodictyol and compared to the traditional plant extraction or chemical synthesis, the biotransformation approach generates less environmental pollution and has a great potential for the sustainable production of homoeriodictyol.
