Recurrent paralogy in the evolution of archaeal chaperonins.

Chaperonins are multisubunit double-ring complexes that mediate the folding of nascent proteins [1] [2]. In bacteria, chaperonins are homo-oligomeric and are composed of seven-membered rings. Eukaryotic and most archaeal chaperonin rings are eight-membered and exhibit varying degrees of hetero-oligomerism [3] [4]. We have cloned and sequenced seven new genes encoding chaperonin subunits from the crenarchaeotes Sulfolobus solfataricus, S. acidocaldarius, S. shibatae and Desulfurococcus mobilis. Although some archaeal genomes possess a single chaperonin gene, most have two. We describe a third chaperonin-encoding gene (TF55-gamma) from two Sulfolobus species; phylogenetic analyses indicate that the gene duplication producing TF55-gamma occurred within crenarchaeal evolution. The presence of TF55-gamma in Sulfolobus correlates with their unique nine-membered chaperonin rings. Duplicate genes (paralogs) for chaperonins within archaeal genomes very often resemble each other more than they resemble chaperonin genes from other archaea. Our phylogenetic analyses suggest multiple independent gene duplications - at least seven among the archaea examined. The persistence of paralogous genes for chaperonin subunits in multiple archaeal lineages may involve a process of co-evolution, where chaperonin subunit heterogeneity changes independently of selection on function.

Two kinds of archaeal group II chaperonin subunits with different thermostability in Thermococcus strain KS-1

The thermostability of the recombinant alpha- and beta-subunit homo-oligomers (alpha16mer and beta16mer) and of natural chaperonins purified from cultured Thermococcus strain KS-1 cells was measured to understand the mechanism for the thermal acclimatization of T. KS-1. The beta-subunit content of the natural chaperonin from cells grown at 90 degrees C was higher than that at 80 degrees C. The optimum temperature for ATPase activity of the natural chaperonins was 80-90 degrees C, whereas that for alpha16mer and beta16mer was 60 degrees C and over 90 degrees C respectively. Judging from the ATPase activity, beta16mer was more thermostable than alpha16mer. The thermostabilities of the natural chaperonins were intermediate between alpha16mer and beta16mer, whereas the natural chaperonin with a higher beta-subunit content was more stable than that with a lower beta-subunit content. Native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) revealed that the chaperonin oligomers thermally dissociated to their ATPase-inactive monomers. The thermal denaturation process monitored by circular dichroism showed that the free beta-subunit was more stable than the free alpha-subunit, and that the secondary structure of the chaperonin monomer in the oligomer was more stable than that in the free monomer. These results suggest that the structure of these subunits was stabilized in the oligomer, and that an increase in the beta-subunit content conferred higher thermostability to the natural hetero-oligomeric chaperonin.

Biochemical characterization of an ATP-dependent DNA ligase from the hyperthermophilic crenarchaeon <Emphasis Type="Italic">Sulfolobus shibatae</Emphasis>

A gene encoding a putative ATP-dependent DNA ligase was identified in the genome of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus shibatae and expressed in Escherichia coli. The 601 amino acid recombinant polypeptide was a monomeric protein capable of strand joining on a singly nicked DNA substrate in the presence of ATP ( K(m)=34 micro mu) and a divalent cation (Mn(2+), Mg(2+), or Ca(2+)). dATP was partially active in supporting ligation catalyzed by the protein, but GTP, CTP, UTP, dGTP, dCTP, dTTP, and NAD(+) were inactive. The cloned Ssh ligase showed an unusual metal cofactor requirement; it was significantly more active in the presence of Mn(2+) than in the presence of Mg(2+) or Ca(2+). Unexpectedly, the native Ssh ligase preferred Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) rather than Mn(2+). Both native and recombinant enzymes displayed optimal nick-joining activity at 60-80 degrees C. Ssh ligase discriminated against substrates containing mismatches on the 3'-side of nick junction and was more tolerant of mismatches at the 5'-end than of those at the penultimate 5'-end. The enzyme showed little activity on a 1-nucleotide gapped substrate. This is the first biochemical study of a DNA ligase from the crenarchaeotal branch of the archaea domain.     

Cloning of genes, purification and properties investigation of recombinant DNA ligases from the thermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus abyssi and Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum

The genes encoding of DNA ligases from the thermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus abyssi (PabDNA ligase) and Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum (MthDNA ligase) were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The activity of purified enzymes was studied by ligation of two oligonucleotides, one of which had preformed hairpin structure. In the used system the maximal output of reaction products for both DNA ligases was observed near 70 degrees C that is explained by substrate thermostability. At stoichiometric ratio of enzymes and substrate the output of a product reaches of plateau at 70-75% of theoretical ones. Investigated DNA ligases showed different thermostability. The half-time life of PabDNA ligase was about 60 min at 90 degrees C. MthDNA ligase was completely inactivated at this temperature during 10 min. Recombinant DNA ligases from P. abyssi and M. thermoautotrophicum possessed high stability during a storage at 4 degrees C.     

Trehalose production with a new enzymatic system from Sulfolobus solfataricus KM1

An amylolytic activity that converts soluble starch to α,α-trehalose (trehalose) was found in the cell homogenate of the hyperthermophilic, acidophilic archaeum Sulfolobus solfataricus KM1. Two enzymes, a glycosyltransferase and an α-amylase, which are essential for this activity, were purified to homogeneity. A glycosyltransferase catalyzed the conversion of maltooligosaccharides to glycosyltrehaloses and an α-amylase catalyzed the hydrolysis of glycosyltrehaloses to trehalose. The glycosyltransferase transferred an oligomer segment of maltooligosaccharide to the C1–OH position of glucose, located at the reducing end of the maltooligosaccharide, to produce a glycosyltrehalose having an α-1,1 linkage. The α-amylase hydrolyzed only the α-1,4 glucosidic linkage adjacent to the trehalose unit of the glycosyltrehaloses. Their activities were maximal at 70–80°C and 70–85°C, with high thermostability, respectively. The genes encoding for both enzymes were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The regions highly conserved in α-amylase family exist in the amino acid sequences of these enzymes. A new process for trehalose production from starch was developed using the purified enzymes. The yield of trehalose from starch was 81.5% using these two enzymes. This review describes our efforts to reveal in detail the characters of these enzymes involved in practical trehalose production.
