Domain engineering of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</Emphasis> exoglucanases 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To illustrate the effect of a cellulose-binding domain (CBD) on the enzymatic characteristics of non-cellulolytic exoglucanases, 10 different recombinant enzymes were constructed combining the Saccharomyces cerevisiae exoglucanases, EXG1 and SSG1, with the CBD2 from the Trichoderma reesei cellobiohydrolase, CBH2, and a linker peptide. The enzymatic activity of the recombinant enzymes increased with the CBD copy number. The recombinant enzymes, CBD2-CBD2-L-EXG1 and CBD2-CBD2-SSG1, exhibited the highest cellobiohydrolase activity (17.5 and 16.3 U mg –1 respectively) on Avicel cellulose, which is approximately 1.5- to 2-fold higher than the native enzymes. The molecular organisation of CBD in these recombinant enzymes enhanced substrate affinity, molecular flexibility and synergistic activity, contributing to their elevated action on the recalcitrant substrates as characterised by adsorption, kinetics, thermostability and scanning electron microscopic analysis. 相似文献

The upstream region of the isocitrate lyase gene (UPR-ICL) from the n-alkane-utilizing yeast Candida tropicalis serves as a useful promoter of gene expression in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The production of rat metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1), which belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family, was tested under the control of UPR-ICL. Expression of mGluR1 was found in recombinant clones and enhanced by replacing the signal sequence of mGluR1 with the corresponding region of the -factor receptor (Ste2), which is a GPCR found in S. cerevisiae. Moreover, the membrane fraction from a recombinant clone associated with Vesl-1S/Homer-1a protein binds the mGluR1 in rat cerebellum. These results suggest that the UPR-ICL-controlled gene expression system is useful for heterologous GPCRs in S. cerevisiae. 相似文献

The signal peptide of Aspergillus oryzae endo-(1,4)--xylanase XynF1 contains a C-terminal serine-arginine that directs efficient secretion of the enzyme into the culture medium. In the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus, however, there is little secretion of XynF1 into the culture medium. Modification of the C-terminal sequence of the signal peptide to lysine-arginine resulted in efficient secretion of C. cinereus XynF1, suggesting the presence of a KEX2-like protease in this fungus. 相似文献

Expressing proteins with fusion partners improves yield and simplifies the purification process. We developed a novel fusion partner to improve the secretion of heterologous proteins that are otherwise poorly excreted in yeast. The VOA1 (YGR106C) gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a subunit of vacuolar ATPase. We found that C-terminally truncated Voa1p was highly secreted into the culture medium, even when fused with rarely secreted heterologous proteins such as human interleukin-2 (hIL-2). Deletion mapping of C-terminally truncated Voa1p, identified a hydrophilic 28-amino acid peptide (HL peptide) that was responsible for the enhanced secretion of target protein. A purification tag and a protease cleavage site were added to use HL peptide as a multi-purpose fusion partner. The utility of this system was tested via the expression and purification of various heterologous proteins. In many cases, the yield of target proteins fused with the peptide was significantly increased, and fusion proteins could be directly purified with affinity chromatography. The fusion partner was removed by in vitro processing, and intact proteins were purified by re-application of samples to affinity chromatography. 相似文献

Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH), molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH), and gonad-inhibiting hormone (GIH) are members of a major peptide family produced from the X-organ sinus gland complex in the eyestalk of crustaceans. This peptide family plays important roles in controlling several physiologic processes such as regulation of growth and reproduction. In this study the complementary DNA encoding a peptide related to the CHH/MIH/GIH family (so-called Pem-CMG) of the black tiger prawn Penaeus monodon was successfully expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris under the control of the AOX1 promoter. The recombinant Pem-CMG was secreted into the culture medium using the -factor signal sequence; of Saccharomyces cerevisiae without the Glu-Ala-Glu-Ala spacer peptide. The amino terminus of the recombinant Pem-CMG was correctly processed as evidenced by amino-terminal peptide sequencing. The recombinant Pem-CMG was purified by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromotography and used in a biological assay for CHH activity. The final yield of the recombinant Pem-CMG after purification was 260 µg/L of the culture medium. Both crude and purified recombinant Pem-CMG produced from P. pastoris showed the ability to elevate the glucose level in the hemolymph of eyestalk-ablated P. monodon, which demonstrates that Pem-CMG peptide functions as hyperglycemic hormone in P. monodon. 相似文献

Sex-determining cascades are supposed to have evolved in a retrograde manner from bottom to top. Wilkins 1995 hypothesis finds support from our comparative studies in Drosophila melanogaster and Musca domestica, two dipteran species that separated some 120 million years ago. The sex-determining cascades in these flies differ at the level of the primary sex-determining signal and their targets, Sxl in Drosophila and F in Musca. Here we present evidence that they converge at the level of the terminal regulator, doublesex (dsx), which conveys the selected sexual fate to the differentiation genes. The dsx homologue in Musca, Md-dsx, encodes male-specific (MdDSXM) and female-specific (MdDSXF) protein variants which correspond in structure to those in Drosophila. Sex-specific regulation of Md-dsx is controlled by the switch gene F via a splicing mechanism that is similar but in some relevant aspects different from that in Drosophila. MdDSXF expression can activate the vitellogenin genes in Drosophila and Musca males, and MdDSXM expression in Drosophila females can cause male-like pigmentation of posterior tergites, suggesting that these Musca dsx variants are conserved not only in structure but also in function. Furthermore, downregulation of Md-dsx activity in Musca by injecting dsRNA into embryos leads to intersexual differentiation of the gonads. These results strongly support a role of Md-dsx as the final regulatory gene in the sex-determining hierarchy of the housefly.Edited by D. Tautz 相似文献

Functional expression of lipase from Burkholderia sp. C20 (Lip) in various cellular compartments of Escherichia coli was explored. The poor expression in the cytoplasm of E. coli was improved by several strategies, including coexpression of the cytoplasmic chaperone GroEL/ES, using a mutant E. coli host strain with an oxidative cytoplasm, and protein fusion technology. Fusing Lip with the N-terminal peptide tags of T7PK,
DsbA, and DsbC was effective in enhancing the solubility and biological activity. Non-fused Lip or Lip fusions heterologously
expressed in the periplasm of E. coli formed insoluble aggregates with a minimum activity. Biologically active and intact Lip was obtained upon the secretion into
the extracellular medium using the native signal peptide and the expression performance was further improved by coexpression
of the periplasmic chaperon Skp. The extracellular expression was even more effective when Lip was secreted as a Lip–HlyA
fusion via the α-hemolysin transporter. Finally, Lip could be functionally displayed on the E. coli cell surface when fused with the carrier EstA. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is frequently used as a bioreactor for conversion of exogenously acquired metabolites into value-added products, but has
not been utilized for bioconversion of low-cost lipids such as triacylglycerols (TAGs) because the cells are typically unable
to acquire these lipid substrates from the growth media. To help circumvent this limitation, the Yarrowia lipolytica lipase 2 (LIP2) gene was cloned into S. cerevisiae expression vectors and used to generate S. cerevisiae strains that secrete active Lip2 lipase (Lip2p) enzyme into the growth media. Specifically, LIP2 expression was driven by the S. cerevisiae PEX11 promoter, which maintains basal transgene expression levels in the presence of sugars in the culture medium but is rapidly
upregulated by fatty acids. Northern blotting, lipase enzyme activity assays, and gas chromatographic measurements of cellular
fatty acid composition after lipid feeding all confirmed that cells transformed with the PEX11 promoter–LIP2 construct were responsive to lipids in the media, i.e., cells expressing LIP2 responded rapidly to either free fatty acids or TAGs and accumulated high levels of the corresponding fatty acids in intracellular
lipids. These data provided evidence of the creation of a self-regulating positive control feedback loop that allows the cells
to upregulate Lip2p production only when lipids are present in the media. Regulated, autonomous production of extracellular
lipase activity is a necessary step towards the generation of yeast strains that can serve as biocatalysts for conversion
of low-value lipids to value-added TAGs and other novel lipid products. 相似文献

A novel surface-engineered strain of yeast Pichia pastoris was constructed that displays at its surface Kluyveromyces lactis Yellow Enzyme (KYE) fused to the C-terminal half of Saccharomyces cerevisiae -agglutinin. The expression of the fusion protein was controlled by the AOX1-promoter. The new strain showed an increased sorption of the xenoestrogen Bisphenol A (BPA). It was shown that sorption of BPA depended on the presence of methanol in the growth medium and on the pH of the binding assays. The binding kinetics were typical for binding at a surface. The present results demonstrate that the -agglutinin surface display system can be used in the yeast P. pastoris. 相似文献

Using yeast genome databases and literature data, phylogenetic analysis of pectinase PGU genes from 112 Saccharomyces strains assigned to the biological species S. arboricola, S. bayanus (var. uvarum), S. cariocanus, S. cerevisiae, S. kudriavzevii, S. mikatae, S. paradoxus, and the hybrid taxon S. pastorianus (syn. S. carlsbergensis) was carried out. A superfamily of divergent PGU genes was found. Natural interspecies transfer of the PGU gene both from S. cerevisiae to S. bayanus and from S. paradoxus to S. cerevisiae may, however, occur. Within the Saccharomyces species, identity of the PGU nucleotide sequences was 98.8–100% for S. cerevisiae, 86.1–95.7% for S. bayanus (var. uvarum), 94–98.3% for S. kudriavzevii, and 96.8–100% for S. paradoxus/S. cariocanus. For the first time, a family of polymeric PGU1b, PGU2b, PGU3b and PGU4b genes is documented for the yeast S. bayanus var. uvarum, a variety important for winemaking. 相似文献

The left (5) inverted terminal repeat (ITR) of the Mos1 mariner transposable element was altered by site-directed mutagenesis so that it exactly matched the nucleotide sequence of the right (3) ITR. The effects on the transposition frequency resulting from the use of two 3 ITRs, as well as those caused by the deletion of internal portions of the Mos1 element, were evaluated using plasmid-based transposition assays in Escherichia coli and Aedes aegypti. Donor constructs that utilized two 3 ITRs transposed with greater frequency in E. coli than did donor constructs with the wild-type ITR configuration. The lack of all but 10 bp of the internal sequence of Mos1 did not significantly affect the transposition frequency of a wild-type ITR donor. However, the lack of these internal sequences in a donor construct that utilized two 3 ITRs resulted in a further increase in transposition frequency. Conversely, the use of a donor construct with two 3 ITRs did not result in a significant increase in transposition in Ae. aegypti. Furthermore, deletion of a large portion of the internal Mos1 sequence resulted in the loss of transposition activity in the mosquito. The results of this study indicate the possible presence of a negative regulator of transposition located within the internal sequence, and suggest that the putative negative regulatory element may act to inhibit binding of the transposase to the left ITR. The results also indicate that host factors which are absent in E. coli, influence Mos1 transposition in Ae. aegypti.Communicated by G. P. Georgiev 相似文献

Two xylose-fermenting glucose-derepressed Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were constructed in order to investigate the influence of carbon catabolite repression on xylose metabolism. S. cerevisiae CPB.CR2 (mig1, XYL1, XYL2, XKS1) and CPB.MBH2 (mig1, mig2, XYL1, XYL2, XKS1) were analysed for changes in xylose consumption rate and ethanol production rate during anaerobic batch and chemostat cultivations on a mixture of 20 g l–1 glucose and 50 g l–1 xylose, and their characteristics were compared to the parental strain S. cerevisiae TMB3001 (XYL1, XYL2, XKS1). Improvement of xylose utilisation was limited during batch cultivations for the constructed strains compared to the parental strain. However, a 25% and 12% increased xylose consumption rate during chemostat cultivation was achieved for CPB.CR2 and CPB.MBH2, respectively. Furthermore, during chemostat cultivations of CPB.CR2, where the cells are assumed to grow under non-repressive conditions as they sense almost no glucose, invertase activity was lower during growth on xylose and glucose than on glucose only. The 3-fold reduction in invertase activity could only be attributed to the presence of xylose, suggesting that xylose is a repressive sugar for S. cerevisiae. 相似文献

To evaluate the secretory and cytoplasmic expression of a thermostable Thermogata maritima invertase in Lactococcus lactis.Results
The thermostable invertase from T. maritima was cloned with and without the USP45 secretory peptide into the pNZ8148 vector for nisin-inducible expression in L. lactis. The introduction of an USP45 secretion peptide at the N-terminal of the enzyme led to a loss of protein solubility. Computational homology modeling and hydrophobicity studies indicated that the USP45 peptide exposes a stretch of hydrophobic amino acids on the protein surface resulting in lower solubility. Removal of the USP45 secretion peptide allowed a soluble and functional invertase to be expressed intracellularly in L. lactis. Immobilized metal affinity chromatography purification of the cell lysate with nickel-NTA gave a single protein band on SDS-PAGE, while E. coli-expressed invertase consistently co-purified with an additional band. The yields of the purified invertase from E. coli and L. lactis were 14.1 and 6.3 mg/l respectively.Conclusions
Invertase can be expressed in L. lactis and purified in a functional form. L. lactis is a suitable host for the production of food-grade invertase for use in the food and biotechnology industries.14.

A microbial strain (referred to as M1) that produces an extracellular lipase was isolated from a soil sample in Vietnam, and identified as a Ralstonia species by partial sequencing of its 16S rDNA. A genomic library was constructed from Pst I fragments, and a colony showing lipase activity was selected for further analysis. Sequencing of the 4.7-kb insert in this clone (named M1-72) revealed one incomplete and three complete ORFs, predicted to encode a partial hypothetical glutaminyl tRNA synthetase (304 aa), a hypothetical transmembrane protein (500 aa), a lipase (328 aa) and a lipase chaperone (352 aa), respectively. Alignment of the insert sequence with the corresponding region of the genome of R. solanacearum GMI1000 (GenBank Accession No. AL646081) confirmed the presence in the latter of the genes for the hypothetical transmembrane protein and glutaminyl tRNA synthetase, which exhibited 89–91% identity to their counterparts in M1. However, R. solanacearum GMI1000 lacks the complete lipase-encoding gene and the major part of the chaperone-encoding gene, creating a so-called black hole. The deduced amino acid sequences of the products of the lipase gene lipA and chaperone gene lipB from strain M1 shared 49.3–60.3% and 23.9–32.7% identity, respectively, with those of the Burkholderia lipase/chaperone subfamily I.2. lipB is located downstream of lipA, and separated from it by only 9 bp, and each gene has a putative ribosome binding site. The mature lipase LipA, a His-tagged derivative (LipAhis), the tagged full-length chaperone LipBhis and a truncated form (LipBhis) lacking the 56 N-terminal residues were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21. LipA, LipAhis and LipBhis could be expressed at high levels (70, 15 and 12 mg/g wet cells, respectively) and were easily purified. However, LipBhis was expressed at a much lower level which precluded purification. The specific activity of purified LipAhis, expressed on its own, was very low (<52 U/mg). However, after co-incubation with the purified LipBhis in vitro, the specific activity of the enzyme was markedly enhanced, indicating that the chaperone facilitated correct folding of the enzyme. A lipase:chaperone ratio of 1:10 was found to be optimal, yielding an enzyme preparation with a specific activity of 650 U/mg.Communicated by H. Ikeda 相似文献

In this study, the effect of sequential inoculation with non-Saccharomyces (Hanseniaspora guilliermondii) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast on the distinctive characteristics of the Campanino white wine was investigated. For this purpose, three independent winemaking experiments were carried out on an industrial scale (batches A, B and C). In detail, the first one was carried out using the sequential inoculation technique while the other two, using a S. cerevisiae single-strain starter or no inoculation representing the control batches. Microbiological and chemical parameters and sensorial profiles of the wines were defined. Interestingly, the results showed that when sequential cultures (H. guilliermondii in a sequential mixture with S. cerevisiae) were used, a better wine aroma and quality was observed. More specifically, the wine obtained by sequential inoculation showed lower acetic acid values and enhanced volatile profiles than the wine from the control batches. Finally, sensorial analysis confirmed that the sequential cultures led to an improvement in wine flavour. Therefore, results suggest that the sequential inoculation using non-Saccharomyces and Saccharomyces yeast represents a biotechnological practice that can improve the quality features of traditional white wine. It has been shown for the first time that on an industrial scale H. guilliermondii could be used in sequential inoculum with S. cerevisiae in making white Campanino wine. 相似文献

Reactivating factor (RF) from Luteococcus japonicus subsp. casei was shown to be constitutively synthesized and to act a by one-step mechanism, being activated independently from stress.
Cell reactivation (reversion of a cell’s ability to form macrocolonies) might be ensured by the membrane mechanism of RF action,
which is proved with the dependence of antistress activity from the condition of the cytoplasmic membrane and with the form
of concentration dependence. The incubation of UV-treated L. casei suspension with RF increased the number of cells with intact barrier membrane (1.6–1.8-fold increase compared to RF-untreated
cells) and the number of colony-forming cells. Cross defensive and reactivating RF effects on both L. casei and yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were described. Bacterial and yeast’s RF compete for membrane receptors. Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization
time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) spectrometry revealed that RF of L. casei contained two major peptides of 5.8 and 7.6 kDa, while RF of S. cerevisiae was represented by a single peptide of 5.8 kDa. The presence of 5.8 kDa peptide in RF from bacteria and yeasts might ensure
cross responses in these organisms. 相似文献

Objectives
To evaluate different codon optimization parameters on the Saccharomyces cerevisiae-derived mating factor α prepro-leader sequence (MFLS) to improve Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) secretory production in Pichia pastoris.Results
Codon optimization based on the individual codon usage (ICU) and codon context (CC) design parameters enhanced secretory production of CAL-B to 7 U/ml and 12 U/ml, respectively. Only 3 U/ml was obtained with the wild type sequence while the sequence optimized using both ICU and CC objectives showed intermediate performance of 10 U/ml. These results clearly show that CC is the most relevant parameter for the codon optimization of MFLS in P. pastoris, and there is no synergistic effect achieved by considering both ICU and CC together.Conclusion
The CC optimized MFLS increased secretory protein production of CAL-B in P. pastoris by fourfold.18.

Saccharomyces kluyveri is a petite-negative yeast, which is less prone to form ethanol under aerobic conditions than is S. cerevisiae. The first reaction on the route from pyruvate to ethanol is catalysed by pyruvate decarboxylase, and the differences observed between S. kluyveri and S. cerevisiae with respect to ethanol formation under aerobic conditions could be caused by differences in the regulation of this enzyme activity. We have identified and cloned three genes encoding functional pyruvate decarboxylase enzymes ( PDC genes) from the type strain of S. kluyveri (Sk-PDC11, Sk-PDC12 and Sk-PDC13). The regulation of pyruvate decarboxylase in S. kluyveri was studied by measuring the total level of Sk-PDC mRNA and the overall enzyme activity under various growth conditions. It was found that the level of Sk-PDC mRNA was enhanced by glucose and oxygen limitation, and that the level of enzyme activity was controlled by variations in the amount of mRNA. The mRNA level and the pyruvate decarboxylase activity responded to anaerobiosis and growth on different carbon sources in essentially the same fashion as in S. cerevisiae. This indicates that the difference in ethanol formation between these two yeasts is not due to differences in the regulation of pyruvate decarboxylase(s), but rather to differences in the regulation of the TCA cycle and the respiratory machinery. However, the PDC genes of Saccharomyces/Kluyveromyces yeasts differ in their genetic organization and phylogenetic origin. While S. cerevisiae and S. kluyveri each have three PDC genes, these have apparently arisen by independent duplications and specializations in each of the two yeast lineages.Communicated by C. P.

O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) glycosylation is an important post-translational modification in many cellular processes. It is mediated by O-GlcNAc transferases (OGTs), which catalyze the addition of O-GlcNAc to serine or threonine residues of the target proteins. In this study, we expressed a putative Yarrowia lipolytica OGT (YlOGT), the only homolog identified in the subphylum Saccharomycotina through bioinformatics analysis, and the human OGT (hOGT) as recombinant proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and performed their functional characterization. Immunoblotting assays using antibody against O-GlcNAc revealed that recombinant hOGT (rhOGT), but not the recombinant YlOGT (rYlOGT), undergoes auto-O-GlcNAcylation in the heterologous host S. cerevisiae. Moreover, the rhOGT expressed in S. cerevisiae showed a catalytic activity during in vitro assays using casein kinase II substrates, whereas no such activity was obtained in rYlOGT. However, the chimeric human-Y. lipolytica OGT, carrying the human tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain along with the Y. lipolytica catalytic domain (CTD), mediated the transfer of O-GlcNAc moiety during the in vitro assays. Although the overexpression of full-length OGTs inhibited the growth of S. cerevisiae, no such inhibition was obtained upon overexpression of only the CTD fragment, indicating the role of TPR domain in growth inhibition. This is the first report on the functional analysis of the fungal OGT, indicating that the Y. lipolytica OGT retains its catalytic activity, although the physiological role and substrates of YlOGT remain to be elucidated. 相似文献
