腈水合酶NHaseK在大肠杆菌中的功能表达

腈水合酶由α亚基和β亚基组成,活化元件对其功能表达至关重要,研究腈水合酶基因簇中各元件的表达比例对酶重组表达的影响具有重要意义。以来源于Klebsiella oxytoca KCTC 1686的腈水合酶（NHaseK）为研究对象,构建了多种表达策略,以期实现α亚基、β亚基和活化元件17k差异表达。利用pETDuet-1质粒具有双T7启动子的特点,将上述基因以八种不同的组合方式分别插入于两个启动子之后。当将三段基因同时插入于第一个启动子之后时,亚基表达量均衡,比活力为0.78 U/mg蛋白,是亚基表达量比例为5：3时的124%。在此基础上,在第二个启动子之后插入活化元件基因,活化元件表达水平提升2倍,比活提升5%,为0.82 U/mg蛋白。当将α亚基和β亚基插入于不同启动子之后时,酶活仅为对照组的10%,说明NHaseK的亚基必须同时转录才可形成成熟蛋白。进一步考察质粒拷贝数对大肠杆菌表达NHaseK的影响,确定15~20的质粒拷贝数足够实现NHaseK的功能表达。结果表明,亚基的均衡表达以及活化元件的充分表达对NHaseK的重组表达具有积极作用。

Cobalt-dependent transcription of the nitrile hydratase gene in Rhodococcus rhodochrous M8

Abstract The effects of cobalt ions on the activities of Rhodococcus rhodochrous M8 enzymes for nitrile utilization, nitrile hydratase and amidase, were investigated. In contrast to amidase, synthesis of nitrile hydratase and its activity required cobalt ions in the growth medium. Northern blot analysis showed that in the presence of cobalt ions, the level of mRNA for nitrile hydratase genes was several times higher than that under cobalt-limited conditions. It was assumed that the low nitrile hydratase activity in cells grown in the absence of cobalt ions is connected either with the weak expression of nitrile hydratase genes or with the rapid degradation of nitrile hydratase mRNA.     

Expression of nitrile hydratase gene of mutant 4D strain of Rhodococcus rhodochrous PA 34 in Pichia pastoris

The nitrile hydratase (NHase) gene of Rhodococcus rhodochrous PA-34 mutant 4D has been amplified by PCR, cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris KM-71 using pHIL-D2 expression vector. The recombinant P. pastoris KM-71 exhibited active expression of the nitrile hydratase gene of the mutant 4D and has shown very good potential for the transformation of 3-cyanopyridine to nicotinamide. The recombinant P. pastoris KM-71 exhibited maximum NHase activity when cultivated in YPD medium was supplemented with 0.4?mM cobalt ions. The recombinant P. pastoris KM-71 showed maximum nitrile hydratase enzyme production, when incubated at 30?°C for 15?h.     

Occurrence of a cobalt-induced and cobalt-containing nitrile hydratase in Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1

The formation of nitrile hydratase required cobalt ions in Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1. No other transition-metals could replace the cobalt ion. The Rhodococcus nitrile hydratase was purified to homogeneity and found to contain a cobalt atom. The occurrence of a cobalt-induced and cobalt-containing nitrile hydratase, different from the nitrile hydratases in Pseudomonas chlororaphis B23 and Brevibacterium R312 containing a ferric ion in their active center, has been demonstrated here for the first time.     

Purification of a hyperactive nitrile hydratase from resting cells of Rhodococcus rhodochrous PA-34

A propionitrile-induced nitrile hydratase (NHase), a promising biocatalyst for synthesis of organic amides has been purified from cell-free extract of Rhodococcus rhodochrous PA-34. About 11-fold purification of NHase was achieved with 52% yield. The SDS-PAGE of the purified enzyme revealed that it consisted of two subunits of 25.04 kD and 30.6 kD. However, the molecular weight of holoenzyme was speculated to be 86 kD by native-PAGE. This NHase exhibited maximum activity at pH 8.0 and temperature 40°C. Half-life was 2 h at 40°C and 0.5 h at 50°C. The Km and Vmax were 167 mM and 250 μmole/min/mg using 25 mM 3-cyanopyridine as substrate. AgNO₃, Pb(CH₃COO)₂ and HgCl₂ inhibited the NHase to extent of 89–100%.     

Optimum culture conditions for the production of cobalt-containing nitrile hydratase by Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1

Summary We sought the optimum conditions for production of nitrile hydratase by Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1. The addiiion of both cobalt ions and an aliphatic nitrile or amide as an inducer was indispensable for the appearance of nitrile hydratase activity in R. rhodochrous J1 cells. Crotonamide was an efficient inducer and, moreover, urea was found to be the most powerful inducer for the production of nitrile hydratase. When R. rhodochrous J1 was cultivated under optimal conditions, the enzyme activity in the culture broth and the specific activity was approximately 32,000 and 512 times higher than the initially obtained levels, respectively. The nitrile hydratase formed corresponded to more than 45% of the total soluble protein in urea-induced cells, as judged by quantitative evaluation of the gel track.Offprint requests to: T.

Fed-batch fermentation for production of nitrile hydratase byRhodococcus rhodochrous M33

To enhance the productivity and activity of nitrile hydratase inRhodococcus rhodochrous M33, a glucose-limited fed-batch culture was performed. In a fed-batch culture where the glucose was controlled at a limited level and cobalt was supplemented during the fermentation period, the cell mass and total activity of nitrile hydratase both increased 3.3-fold compared to that in the batch fermentation. The productivity of nitrile hydratase also increased 1.9-fold compared to that in the batch fermentation. The specific activity of nitrile hydratase in the whole cell preparation when using a fed-batch culture was 120 units/mg-DCW, which was similar to that in the batch culture.

Characterization of a new cobalt-containing nitrile hydratase purified from urea-induced cells of Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1

A new cobalt-containing nitrile hydratase was purified from extracts of urea-induced cells from Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1 in seven steps. At the last step, the enzyme was crystallized by adding ammonium sulfate. Nitrile hydratase was a 500-530-kDa protein composed of two different subunits (alpha subunit 26 kDa, beta subunit 29 kDa). The enzyme contained approximately 11-12 mol cobalt/mol enzyme. A concentrated solution of highly purified nitrile hydratase exhibited a broad absorption spectrum in the visible range, with an absorption maxima at 410 nm. The enzyme had a wide substrate specificity. Aliphatic saturated or unsaturated nitriles as well as aromatic nitriles, were substrates for the enzyme. The optimum pH of the hydratase was pH 6.5-6.8. The enzyme was more stable than ferric nitrile hydratases. The amino-terminal sequence of each subunit of R. rhodochrous J1 enzyme was determined and compared with that of ferric nitrile hydratases. Prominent similarities were observed with the beta subunit. However, the amino acid sequence of the alpha subunit from R. rhodochrous J1 was quite different from that of the ferric enzymes.
