To achieve a thermostable beta-glucuronidase (GUS) and identify key mutation sites, we applied in vitro directed evolution strategy through DNA shuffling and obtained a highly thermostable mutant GUS gene, gus-tr, after four rounds of DNA shuffling and screening. This variant had mutations in 15 nucleic acid sites, resulting in changes in 12 amino acids (AAs). Using gus-tr as the template, we further performed site-directed mutagenesis to reverse the individual mutation to the wild-type protein. We found that six sites (Q493R, T509A, M532T, N550S, G559S and N566S) present in GUS-TR3337, were the key AAs needed to confer its high thermostability. Of these, Q493R and T509A were not reported previously as important residues for thermostability of GUS. Furthermore, all of these six mutations must be present concurrently to confer the high thermostability. We expressed the gus-tr3337 gene and purified the GUS-TR3337 protein that contained the six AA mutations. Compared with the wild-type protein which lost its activity completely after 10 min at 70 degrees C, the mutant GUS-TR3337 protein retained 75% of its activity when heated at 80 degrees C for 10 min. The GUS-TR3337 exhibited high activity even heated at 100 degrees C for 30 min on nitrocellulose filter. The comparison of molecular models of the mutated and wild-type enzyme revealed the relation of protein function and these structural modifications. 相似文献

The use of random mutagenesis in concert with protein display technologies to rapidly select high affinity antibody variants is an established methodology. In some cases, DNA recombination has been included in the strategy to enable selection of mutations which act cooperatively to improve antibody function. In this study, the impact of L-Shuffling DNA recombination on the eventual outcome of an in vitro affinity maturation has been experimentally determined. Parallel evolution strategies, with and without a recombination step, were carried out and both methods improved the affinity of an anti-Fas single chain variable fragment (scFv). The recombination step resulted in an increased population of affinity-improved variants. Moreover, the most improved variant, with a 22-fold affinity gain, emerged only from the recombination-based approach. An analysis of mutations preferentially selected in the recombined population demonstrated strong cooperative effects when tested in combination with other mutations but small, or even negative, effects on affinity when tested in isolation. These results underline the ability of combinatorial library approaches to explore very large regions of sequence space to find optimal solutions in antibody evolution studies. 相似文献

There have been two major problems preventing applications of termite cellulases; one was difficulty for their hetelologous overexpression, and another is their low thermostability. We previously achieved adaptation of termite cellulase genes to an overexpression system of Escherichia coli by family shuffling of four orthologous cDNAs (Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem., 2005; 69: 1711-1720). Using the adapted mutant cDNAs as parental genes combined with native-form cDNAs, we performed further family shuffling and obtained mutant cDNAs, which gave enzymes with improved thermostability. The best-evolved clone (PA68) was improved by 10 degrees C in maximum stability (retaining 90% original activity for 30 min incubation) from the parental enzymes, and kept 54% of its original activity for 150 min at 50 degrees C, whereas the most thermostable enzyme amongst the parents (A18) retained 30% of its original activity. PA68 showed 889 (micromoles of reducing sugars/min/mg of protein) in V(max) and 560 (micromoles of reducing sugars/min/mg of protein) in the specific activity against carboxymethylcellulose, which corresponds to 9.8 and 13.1 times of those of one of the ancestral enzymes rRsEG. In summary, we improved thermostability of the termite cellulase and increased the V(max) value and specific activity by combining only cDNAs encoding enzymes adapted for normal temperatures. 相似文献

We constructed stabilized variants of beta-lactamase (BLA) from Enterobacter cloacae by combinatorial recruitment of consensus mutations. By aligning the sequences of 38 BLA homologs, we identified 29 positions where the E.cloacae gene differs from the consensus sequence of lactamases and constructed combinatorial libraries using mixtures of mutagenic oligonucleotides encompassing all 29 positions. Screening of 90 random isolates from these libraries identified 15 variants with significantly increased thermostability. The stability of these isolates suggest that all tested mutations make additive contributions to protein stability. A statistical analysis of sequence and stability data identified 11 mutations that made stabilizing contributions and eight mutations that destabilized the protein. A second-generation library recombining these 11 stabilizing mutations led to the identification of BLA variants that showed further stabilization. The most stable variant had a mid-point of thermal denaturation (Tm) that was 9.1 degrees C higher than the starting molecule and contained eight consensus mutations. Incubation of three stabilized BLA variants with several proteases showed that all tested isolates have significantly increased resistance to proteolysis. Our data demonstrate that combinatorial consensus mutagenesis (CCM) allows the rapid generation of protein variants with improved thermal and proteolytic stability. 相似文献

We have developed an efficient optimization technique, 'biased mutation-assembling', for improving protein properties such as thermostability. In this strategy, a mutant library is constructed using the overlap extension polymerase chain reaction technique with DNA fragments from wild-type and phenotypically advantageous mutant genes, in which the number of mutations assembled in the wild-type gene is stochastically controlled by the mixing ratio of the mutant DNA fragments to wild-type fragments. A high mixing ratio results in a mutant composition biased to favor multiple-point mutants. We applied this strategy to improve the thermostability of prolyl endopeptidase from Flavobacterium meningosepticum as a case study and found that the proportion of thermostable mutants in a library increased as the mixing ratio was increased. If the proportion of thermostable mutants increases, the screening effort needed to find them should be reduced. Indeed, we isolated a mutant with a 1200-fold longer activity half-life at 60 degrees C than that of wild-type prolyl endopeptidase after screening only 2000 mutants from a library prepared with a high mixing ratio. Our results indicate that an aggressive accumulation of advantageous mutations leads to an increase in the quality of the mutant library and a reduction in the screening effort required to find superior mutants. 相似文献

Psychrophilic alkaline phosphatase (AP) from the Antarctic strain TAB5 was subjected to directed evolution in order to identify the key residues steering the enzyme's cold-adapted activity and stability. A round of random mutagenesis and further recombination yielded three thermostable and six thermolabile variants of the TAB5 AP. All of the isolated variants were characterised by their residual activity after heat treatment, Michaelis-Menten kinetics, activation energy and microcalorimetric parameters of unfolding. In addition, they were modelled into the structure of the TAB5 AP. Mutations which affected the cold-adapted properties of the enzyme were all located close to the active site. The destabilised variants H135E and H135E/G149D had 2- and 3-fold higher kcat, respectively, than the wild-type enzyme. Wild-type AP has a complex heat-induced unfolding pattern while the mutated enzymes loose local unfolding transitions and have large shifts of the Tm values. Comparison of the wild-type and mutated TAB5 APs demonstrates that there is a delicate balance between the enzyme activity and stability and that it is possible to improve the activity and thermostability simultaneously as demonstrated in the case of the H135E/G149D variant compared to H135E. 相似文献

A 10 residue ß-hairpin, which is characteristic ofthermostable Bacillus neutral proteases, was engineered intothe thermolabile neutral protease of Bacillus subtilis. Therecipient enzyme remained fully active after introduction ofthe loop. However, the mutant protein exhibited autocatalyticnicking and a 0.4°C decrease in thermostability. Two additionalpoint mutations designed to improve the interactions betweenthe enzyme surface and the introduced ß-hairpin resultedin reduced nicking and increased thermostability. After theintroduction of both additional mutations in the loopcontainingmutant, nicking was largely prevented and an increase in thermostabilityof 1.1°C was achieved. 相似文献

We used directed evolution to convert Bacillus subtilis subtilisinE into an enzyme functionally equivalent to its thermophilichomolog thermitase from Thermoactinomyces vulgaris. Five generationsof random mutagenesis, recombination and screening created subtilisinE 5-3H5, whose half-life at 83°C (3.5 min) and temperatureoptimum for activity (Topt, 76°C) are identical with thoseof thermitase. The Topt of the evolved enzyme is 17°C higherand its half-life at 65°C is >200 times that of wild-typesubtilisin E. In addition, 5-3H5 is more active towards thehydrolysis of succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide than wild-typeat all temperatures from 10 to 90°C. Thermitase differsfrom subtilisin E at 157 amino acid positions. However, onlyeight amino acid substitutions were sufficient to convert subtilisinE into an enzyme equally thermostable. The eight substitutions,which include known stabilizing mutations (N218S, N76D) andalso several not previously reported, are distributed over thesurface of the enzyme. Only two (N218S, N181D) are found inthermitase. Directed evolution provides a powerful tool to unveilmechanisms of thermal adaptation and is an effective and efficientapproach to increasing thermostability without compromisingenzyme activity. 相似文献

We assumed that adverse effects posed by introducing multiple mutations could be decomposed into those of each of the component mutations and that the risk could be reduced by the accumulation of mutations that were finely tuned for directed improvement of a specific property. We propose here a directed evolution strategy for improving a specific property with less effect on other ones. This strategy is composed of fine-tuning of mutations and their accumulation by our original mutation-assembling method. In this study, we selected lactate oxidase (LOX) as a model enzyme, because its directed evolution had showed a trade-off between thermostability and catalytic activity. Mutation profiling at each of the sites found by error-prone PCR revealed a strong inverse relationship between the two properties. Thermostable mutations with less effect on catalytic activity were selected at each site and accumulated with ideal combinations by our method. The resultant multiple mutants exhibited 5- to 10-fold superior catalytic activity and comparable thermostability with those created by accumulating thermostable mutations, which were not tuned for catalytic activity. This result demonstrates that the accumulation of fine-tuned mutations is an advantageous approach to reduce the risk of adverse effects posed by accumulating multiple mutations. 相似文献

A cleavage-deficient variant of NotI restriction endonuclease (GCGGCCGC) was isolated by random mutagenesis of the notIR gene. The NotI variant D160N was shown to bind DNA and protect plasmid DNA from EagI (CGGCCG) and NotI digestions. The EDTA-resistant BmrI restriction endonuclease cleaves DNA sequence ACTGGG N5/N4. The N-terminal cleavage domain of BmrI (residues 1-198) with non-specific nuclease activity was fused to the NotI variant D160N with a short linker. The engineered chimeric endonuclease (CH-endonuclease) recognizes NotI sites specifically in the presence of high salt (100-150 mM NaCl) and divalent cations Mg++ or Ca++. In contrast to wild-type NotI, which cuts within its recognition sequence, BmrI198-NotI (D160N) cleaves DNA outside of NotI sites, resulting in deletion of the NotI site and the adjacent sequences. The fusion of the BmrI cleavage domain to cleavage-deficient variants of Type II restriction enzymes to generate novel cleavage sites will provide useful tools for DNA manipulation. 相似文献

Protein function is a balance between activity and stability. However, the relevance of stability-activity trade-offs for protein evolution and their impact on organismal fitness have been difficult to determine. Previously, we have linked organismal survival at increasing temperatures to adaptive changes to a single protein sequence through allelic replacement of an essential gene, adenylate kinase (adk), in a thermophile. In vivo continuous evolution of the temperature-sensitive thermophile has shown that the first step toward increased organismal fitness is mutation of glutamine-199 to arginine in the mesophilic enzyme (AKsub Q199R). Here, we show that although substitution of Arg-199 did confer a modest increase in stability (0.6 kcal mol(-1)at 20 degrees C; DeltaT(m) = 3.0 degrees C), it is a large change in the activity profile of the enzyme that is responsible for its exceptional robustness during the earlier experimental evolution study. Kinetic studies of AKsub Q199R show that it has a strong loss of enzymatic activity (>50%) at lower temperatures (20-45 degrees C) and a subsequent increase at elevated temperatures. The stability-activity trade-off observed for AKsub Q199R was linked to the rigidification of the overall structure through stabilization of a polypeptide loop containing Arg-199 that is part of the ATP-binding site of the enzyme. Structural analysis revealed the formation of new ionic interactions facilitated by Arg-199. Our results suggest that stability-activity trade-offs are employed readily as an evolutionary strategy during natural selection to increase organismal fitness. 相似文献

Engineering mammalian cytochrome P450 2B1 by directed evolution for enhanced catalytic tolerance to temperature and dimethyl sulfoxide 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The previously laboratory-evolved cytochrome P450 2B1 quadruple mutant V183L/F202L/L209A/S334P (QM), which showed enhanced H(2)O(2)-mediated substrate oxidation, has now been shown to exhibit a >3.0-fold decrease in K(m,HOOH) for 7-ethoxy-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin (7-EFC) O-deethylation compared with the parental enzyme L209A. Subsequently, a streamlined random mutagenesis and a high-throughput screening method were developed using QM to screen and select mutants with enhanced tolerance of catalytic activity to temperature and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Upon screening >3000 colonies, we identified QM/L295H and QM/K236I/D257N with enhanced catalytic tolerance to temperature and DMSO. QM/L295H exhibited higher activity than QM at a broad range of temperatures (35-55 degrees C) and maintained approximately 1.4-fold higher activity than QM at 45 degrees C for 6 h. In addition, QM/L295H showed a significant increase in T(m,app) compared with L209A. QM/L295H and QM/K236I/D257N exhibited higher activity than QM at a broad range of DMSO concentrations (2.5-15%). Furthermore, QM/K236I/D257N/L295H was constructed by combining QM/K236I/D257N with L295H using site-directed mutagenesis and exhibited a >2-fold higher activity than QM at nearly the entire range of DMSO concentrations. In conclusion, in addition to engineering mammalian cytochromes P450 for enhanced activity, directed evolution can also be used to optimize catalytic tolerance to temperature and organic solvent. 相似文献

The recombinant expression of immunoglobulin domains, Fabs and scFvs in particular, in Escherichia coli can vary significantly from antibody to antibody. We hypothesized that poor Fab expression is often linked to poor intrinsic stability. To investigate this further, we applied a novel approach for stabilizing a poorly expressing anti-tetanus toxoid human Fab with a predisposition for being misfolded and non-functional. Forty-five residues within the Fab were chosen for saturation mutagenesis based on residue frequency analysis and positional entropy calculations. Using automated screening, we determined the approximate midpoint temperature of thermal denaturation (TM) for over 4000 library members with a maximum theoretical diversity of 855 unique mutations. This dataset led to the identification of 11 residue positions, primarily in the Fv region, which when mutated enhanced Fab stability. By combining these mutations, the TM of the Fab was increased to 92 degrees C. Increases in Fab stability correlated with higher expressed Fab yields and higher levels of properly folded and functional protein. The mutations were selected based on their ability to increase the apparent stability of the Fab and therefore the exact mechanism behind the enhanced expression in E.coli remains undefined. The wild-type and two optimized Fabs were converted to an IgG1 format and expressed in mammalian cells. The optimized IgG1 molecules demonstrated identical gains in thermostability compared to the Fabs; however, the expression levels were unaffected suggesting that the eukaryotic secretion system is capable of correcting potential folding issues prevalent in E.coli. Overall, the results have significant implications for the bacterial expression of functional antibody domains as well as for the production of stable, high affinity therapeutic antibodies in mammalian cells. 相似文献

Transthyretin (TTR)-containing amyloid fibrils are deposited in cardiac tissue as a natural consequence of aging. A large number of inherited mutations lead to amyloid diseases by accelerating TTR deposition in other organs. Amyloid formation is preceded by a disruption of the quaternary structure of TTR and conformational changes in the monomer. To study conformational changes preceding the formation of amyloid, we performed molecular dynamics simulations of the wild-type monomer, amyloidogenic variants (V30M, L55P, V122I) and a protective variant (T119M) at neutral and low pH. At low pH, the D strand dissociated from the beta-sheet to expose the A strand, consistent with experimental studies. In amyloidogenic variants and in the wild-type at low pH, there was a conformational change in the beta-sheets into alpha-sheet via peptide bond flips that was not observed at neutral pH in the wild-type monomer. The same residues participated in conversion in each amyloidogenic variant simulation, originating in the G strand between residues 106 and 109, with accelerated conversion at low pH. The T119M protective variant changed the local conformation of the H strand and suppressed the conversion observed in amyloidogenic variants. 相似文献

Six previously constructed and nine newly constructed Aspergillusawamori glucoamylases with multiple mutations made by combiningexisting single mutations were tested for their ability to produceglucose from maltodextrins. Multiple mutations have cumulativeeffects on glucose yield, specific activity and thermostability.No general correlation between glucose yield and thermostabilitywas observed, although mutations that presumably impede unfoldingat high temperatures uniformly increase thermostability andgenerally increase glucose yield. Peak glucose yields decreasewith increasing temperature. The best combination of high glucoseyield, high specific activity and high thermostability occursin Asn20Cys/Ala27Cys/Ser30Pro/Gly137Ala glucoamylase. 相似文献

Sequence variants of the ß-barrel protein interleukin-1ßhave been analyzed for their stabilities toward irreversiblethermal inactivation by monitoring the generation of light scatteringaggregates on heating. The derived temperatures for the onsetof aggregation (Tagg values) correlate well with the free energiesof unfolding of these proteins with the exception of one variant,Lys97Val (K97V), which undergoes aggregation at a temperature7°C lower than expected based on its thermodynamic stability.This lower than expected thermal stability may be due to generationof an aggregation-prone unfolding intermediate at a temperaturelower than the Tm of the global transition. This hypothesisis supported by the location of residue 97 in the long 8699loop which has structural features suggesting it may comprisea small, independent folding unit or microdomain. The excellentcorrelation of thermal and thermodynamic stabilities of sevenof the eight variants tested is consistent with accepted modelsfor thermal inactivation of proteins. At the same time the poorfit of the K97V variant underscores the risk in using thermalstability data in quantitative analysis of mutational studiesof the folding stability of proteins. 相似文献

D-Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) from a hyperthermophiliceubacterium, Thermotoga maritima, is remarkably heat stable(Tm = 109°C). In this work, we have applied homology modellingto predict the 3-D structure of Th.maritima GAPDH to revealthe structural basis of thermostability. Three known GAPDH structureswere used as reference proteins. First, the rough model of onesubunit was constructed using the identified structurally conservedand variable regions of the reference proteins. The holoenzymewas assembled from four subunits and the NAD molecules. Thestructure was refined by energy minimization and molecular dynamicssimulated annealing. No errors were detected in the refinedmodel using the 3-D profile method. The model was compared withthe structure of Bacillus stearothermophilus GAPDH to identifystructural details underlying the increased thermostability.In all, 12 extra ion pairs per subunit were found at the proteinsurface. This seems to be the most important factor responsiblefor thermostability. Differences in the non-specific interactions,including hydration effects, were also found. Minor changeswere detected in the secondary structure. The model predictsthat a slight increase in a-helical propensities and helix-dipoleinteractions also contribute to increased stability, but toa lesser degree. 相似文献

Effect on thermostability and catalytic activity of introducing disulfide bonds into Aspergillus awamori glucoamylase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two additional disulfide bonds and three combined thermostabilizing
mutations were introduced into Aspergillus awamori glucoamylase to test
their effects on enzyme thermostability and catalytic properties. The
single cysteine mutations N20C, A27C, T72C and A471C were made and combined
to produce the double cysteine mutations N20C/ A27C and T72C/A471C. The
double cysteine mutants were expressed efficiently in Saccharomyces
cerevisiae, and disulfide bonds formed spontaneously after fermentation. At
50 degrees C, the single mutants N20C and A27C had decreased specific
activity, whereas the specific activity of the double mutants N20C/A27C and
T72C/A471C were similar to wild-type glucoamylase. The N20C/A27C mutation
increased thermostability, with an increased activation free energy of 1.5
kJ/mol at 65 degrees C, while the single mutation A27C only slightly
increased thermostability and N20C decreased it. The other disulfide
bond-forming mutation T72C/A471C did not affect thermostability at pH 4.5.
The N20C/A27C mutation was separately combined with two other
thermostabilizing mutations, G137A and S436P. Thermostabilities of all of
the combined mutated glucoamylases were additive. N20C/A27C/G137A
glucoamylase had higher specific activity than wild-type glucoamylase from
45 to 67.5 degrees C. The disulfide bond between positions 20 and 27
connects the C- terminus of helix 1 and the following beta-turn, suggesting
that this region is important for glucoamylase thermostability.

The red fluorescent protein DsRed has been extensively engineered for use as an in vivo research tool. In fast maturing DsRed variants, the chromophore maturation half-time is approximately 40 min, compared to approximately 12 h for wild-type DsRed. Further, DsRed has been converted from a tetramer into a monomer, a task that entailed mutating approximately 20% of the amino acids. These engineered variants of DsRed have proven extremely valuable for biomedical research, but the structural basis for the improved characteristics has not been thoroughly investigated. Here we present a 1.7 A crystal structure of the fast maturing tetrameric variant DsRed.T4. We also present a biochemical characterization and 1.6 A crystal structure of the monomeric variant DsRed.M1, also known as DsRed-Monomer. Analysis of the crystal structures suggests that rearrangements of Ser69 and Glu215 contribute to fast maturation, and that positioning of the Lys70 side chain modulates fluorescence quantum yield. Despite the 45 mutations in DsRed.M1 relative to wild-type DsRed, there is a root-mean-square deviation of only 0.3 A between the two structures. We propose that novel intramolecular interactions in DsRed.M1 partially compensate for the loss of intermolecular interactions found in the tetramer. 相似文献

One of the main obstacles in employing P450 monooxygenases for preparative chemical syntheses in cell-free systems is their requirement for cofactors such as NAD(P)H. In order to engineer P450 BM3 from Bacillus megaterium for cost-effective process conditions in vitro, a validated medium throughput screening system based on cheap Zn dust as an electron source and Cobalt(III)sepulchrate (Co(III)sep) as a mediator was reported. In the current study, the alternative cofactor system Zn/Co(III)sep was used in a directed evolution experiment to improve the Co(III)sep-mediated electron transfer to P450 BM3. A variant, carrying five mutations (R47F F87A V281G M354S D363H, Table I), P450 BM3 M5 was identified and characterized with respect to its kinetic parameters. P450 BM3 M5 achieved for mediated electron transfer a 2-fold higher k(cat) value and a 3-fold higher catalytic efficiency compared with the starting point mutant P450 BM3 F87A (k(cat): 62 min(-1) compared with 28 min(-1); k(cat)/K(m): 62 microM(-1)min(-1) compared to 19 microM(-1)min(-1)). For obtaining first insights on electron transfer contributions, three reductase-deficient variants were generated. The reductase-deficient mutant of P450 BMP M5 exhibited a catalytic efficiency of 69% and a k(cat) value of 89% of the values obtained for P450 BM3 M5. 相似文献
