Directed evolution improves the fibrinolytic activity of nattokinase from Bacillus natto

Nattokinase (subtilisin NAT, NK) is a relatively effective microbial fibrinolytic enzyme that has been identified and characterized from Bacillus natto. In the current report, DNA family shuffling was used to improve the fibrinolytic activity of nattokinase. Three homologous genes from B. natto AS 1.107, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CICC 20164 and Bacillus licheniformis CICC 10092 were shuffled to generate a mutant library. A plate-based method was used to screen the mutant libraries for improved activity. After three rounds of DNA shuffling, one desirable mutant with 16 amino acid substitutions was obtained. The mutant enzyme was purified and characterized. The kinetic measurements showed that the catalytic efficiency of the mutant NK was approximately 2.3 times higher than that of the wild-type nattokinase. In addition, the molecular modeling analysis suggested that the mutations affect the enzymatic function by changing the surface conformation of the substrate-binding pocket. The current study shows that the evolution of nattokinase with improved fibrinolytic activity by DNA family shuffling is feasible and provides useful references to facilitate the application of nattokinase in thrombolytic therapy.

Molecular characterization of the genome of Bacillus subtilis (natto) bacteriophage PM1, a phage associated with disruption of food production

“Natto”, regarded as a traditional food, is made by fermenting boiled soybeans with Bacillus subtilis (natto), which is a natto-producing strain related to B. subtilis. Natto production is disrupted by bacteriophage infection of B. subtilis (natto); thus, it is necessary to control bacteriophage infection. A bacteriophage of B. subtilis (natto), PM1, was isolated during interrupted natto production in a factory. As PM1 was shown to have a long non-contractile tail in a morphological study, it was believed to belong to the family Siphoviridae. The genome of PM1 was shown to be a linear double-stranded DNA of approximately 50 kb. Based on the results of studies using restriction endonucleases, PM1 DNA was found to be circularly permuted, similar to bacteriophage DNA without definite ends (e.g. bacteriophage T4). The nucleotide sequence of a 1.1 kb segment of PM1 was determined and used to design a PCR assay. A 0.5 kb product was amplified from eight of ten bacteriophage isolates that infect B. subtilis (natto), and the nucleotide sequences of the PCR-amplified products were identical to those of PM1, suggesting that PM1-related bacteriophages are the most prevalent infectious agents associated with the disruption of natto production. The PCR method might be useful to detect PM1-related bacteriophages and will help to control bacteriophage infection.

Identification of two novel fibrinolytic enzymes from Bacillus subtilis QK02

Two fibrinolytic enzymes (QK-1 and QK-2) purified from the supernatant of Bacillus subtilis QK02 culture broth had molecular masses of 42,000 Da and 28,000 Da, respectively. The first 20 amino acids of the N-terminal sequence are AQSVPYGISQ IKAPALHSQG. The deduced protein sequence and its restriction enzyme map of the enzyme QK-2 are different from those of other proteases. The enzyme QK-2 digested not only fibrin but also a subtilisin substrate, and PMSF inhibited its fibrinolytic and amidolytic activities completely; while QK-1 hydrolyzed fibrin and a plasmin substrate, and PMSF as well as aprotinin inhibited its fibrinolytic activity. These results indicated QK-1 was a plasmin-like serine protease and QK-2 a subtilisin family serine protease. Therefore, these enzymes were designated subtilisin QK. The sequence of a DNA fragment encoding subtilisin QK contained an open reading frame of 1149 base pairs encoding 106 amino acids for signal peptide and 257 amino acids for subtilisin QK, which is highly similar with that of a fibrinolytic enzyme, subtilisin NAT (identities 96.8%). Asp32, His64 and Ser221 in the amino acid sequence deduced from the QK gene are identical to the active site of nattokinase (NK) produced by B. subtilis natto.     

Screening of taxol-producing endophytic fungi from Taxus chinensis var. mairei

A total of 38 endophytic fungus strains were isolated from Taxus chinensis var. mairei by aseptic technique. Genomic DNA was extracted from isolated endophytic fungi and subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis for the presence of Taxus taxadiene synthase (TS) gene, a rate-limiting enzyme gene in the taxol biosynthetic pathway. Twelve out of 38 isolated endophytic fungus strains showed PCR positive for the ts gene. Subsequently, taxol and its related compounds were extracted from culture filtrates and mycelia of the PCR positive strains, separated by column chromatography and analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrum. The analysis result showed that 3 strains could produce taxol and its related compounds at the detectible level. This study indicates that molecular detection of the ts gene is an efficient method for primary screening of taxol or its related compounds-producing endophytic fungi which can improve prominently screening efficiency.
