The linoleic acid isomerase enzyme from Lactobacillus reuteri and Lactobacillus acidophilus, which were responsible for bioconversion of linoleic acid to cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid (c9, t11 CLA) was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli using expression system of pCold-SUMO. The gene was expressed under T7 promotor with a fusion partner of 6×His. Tag at its 5'terminal. After induction by 0.2mM IPTG for 18 h, the recombinant enzyme are expressing in the cytoplasm. The 1776 bp gene from L. reuteri and L. acidophilus encode a linoleic acid isomerase protein with 591 amino acids (64KD).

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a collective term for the positional and geometric isomers of a conjugated diene of linoleic acid (C18:2, n-6). The aims of the present study were to evaluate whether levels of hepatic α-tocopherol, α-tocopherol transfer protein (α-TTP), and antioxidant enzymes in mice were affected by a CLA-supplemented diet. C57BL/6 J mice were divided into the CLA and control groups, which were fed, respectively, a 5 % fat diet with or without 1 g/100 g of CLA (1:1 mixture of cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12) for four weeks. α-Tocopherol levels in plasma and liver were significantly higher in the CLA group than in the control group. Liver α-TTP levels were also significantly increased in the CLA group, the α-TTP/β-actin ratio being 2.5-fold higher than that in control mice (p<0.01). Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances were significantly decreased in the CLA group (p<0.01). There were no significant differences between the two groups in levels of three antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase). The accumulation of liver α-tocopherol seen with the CLA diet can be attributed to the antioxidant potential of CLA and the ability of α-TTP induction. The lack of changes in antioxidant enzyme protein levels and the reduced lipid peroxidation in the liver of CLA mice are due to α-tocopherol accumulation.
