In a previous study we showed that the fusion of the cellulose-binding domain (CBD2) fromTrichoderma reesei cellobiohydrolase II to a β-glucosidase (BGL1) enzyme fromSaccharomycopsis fibuligera significantly hindered its expression and secretion inSaccharomyces cerevisiae. This suggests that the possible low secretion of heterologous cellulolytic enzymes inS. cerevisiae could be attributed to the presence of a cellulose-binding domain (CBD) in these enzymes. The aim of this study was to increase the extracellular production of the chimeric CBD2-BGL1 enzyme (designated CBGL1) inS. cerevisiae. To achieve this, CBGL1 was used as a reporter enzyme for screening mutagenisedS. cerevisiae strains with increased ability to secrete CBD-associated enzymes such as cellulolytic enzymes. A mutant strain ofS. cerevisie, WM91-CBGL1, which exhibited up to 200 U L?1 of total activity, was isolated. Such activity was approximately threefold more than that of the parental host strain. Seventy-five per cent of the activity was detected in the extracellular medium. The mutant strain transformed with theT. resei CBH2 gene produced up to threefold more cellobiohydrolase enzyme than the parental strain, but with 50% of the total activity retained intracellularly. The cellobiohydrolase enzymes from the parent and mutant strains were partially purified and the characteristic properties analysed. 相似文献

Genomic walking PCR was used to obtained a 4,567-bp nucleotide sequence from Caldibacillus cellulovorans. Analysis of this sequence revealed that there were three open reading frames, designated ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3. Incomplete ORF1 encoded a putative C-terminal cellulose-binding domain (CBD) homologous to members of CBD family IIIb, while putative ORF3 encoded a protein of unknown function. The putative ManA protein encoded by complete manA ORF2 was an enzyme with a novel multidomain structure and was composed of four domains in the following order: a putative N-terminal domain (D1) of unknown function, an internal CBD (D2), a β-mannanase catalytic domain (D3), and a C-terminal CBD (D4). All four domains were linked via proline-threonine-rich peptides. Both of the CBDs exhibited sequence similarity to family IIIb CBDs, while the mannanase catalytic domain exhibited homology to the family 5 glycosyl hydrolases. The purified recombinant enzyme ManAd3 expressed from the cloned catalytic domain (D3) exhibited optimum activity at 85°C and pH 6.0 and was extremely thermostable at 70°C. This enzyme exhibited high specificity with the substituted galactomannan locust bean gum, while more substituted galacto- and glucomannans were poorly hydrolyzed. Preliminary studies to determine the effect of the recombinant ManAd3 and a recombinant thermostable β-xylanase on oxygen-delignified Pinus radiata kraft pulp revealed that there was an increase in the brightness of the bleached pulp. 相似文献

The filamentous fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum produces a complete set of cellulolytic enzymes needed for efficient solubilization of native cellulose, the major component of plants. In this work, we reported the molecular characterization of an important glycosyl-hydrolase enzyme classified as endo-β-1,4-glucanase. The importance of this enzyme was revealed with the in-gel activity staining, showing a high degradation capacity of cellulose. When purified from native gel and ran in denaturing polyacrylamide gel, the polypeptide has an apparent molecular mass of about 34 kDa called Endo2. For further characterization of this protein, a mass spectrometry approach was carried out. The LC–MS/MS analysis revealed two peptides belonging to this enzyme. The genomic DNA and cDNA sequences were resolved by PCR amplification and sequencing, revealing a gene with two intron sequences. The open reading frame of 987 bp encoded a putative polypeptide of 328 amino acids having a calculated molecular mass of 33,297 Da. Yet, the molecular modeling and comparative investigation of different 3D cellulase structures showed that this endoglucanase isoform has probably two domains. A core domain having a high similarity with endoglucanases family 5 and a cellulose-binding domain having similarities with those of exo-type cellulases of family 1, linked together by a serine-threonine-rich region. These results are with great interests and show new characteristics of S. sclerotiorum glucanase. 相似文献

Cel5A, an endoglucanase, was derived from the metagenomic library of vermicompost. The deduced amino acid sequence of Cel5A shows high sequence homology with family-5 glycoside hydrolases, which contain a single catalytic domain but no distinct cellulose-binding domain. Random mutagenesis and cellulose-binding module (CBM) fusion approaches were successfully applied to obtain properties required for cellulose hydrolysis. After two rounds of error-prone PCR and screening of 3,000 mutants, amino acid substitutions were identified at various positions in thermotolerant mutants. The most heat-tolerant mutant, Cel5A_2R2, showed a 7-fold increase in thermostability. To enhance the affinity and hydrolytic activity of Cel5A on cellulose substrates, the family-6 CBM from Saccharophagus degradans was fused to the C-terminus of the Cel5A_2R2 mutant using overlap PCR. The Cel5A_2R2-CBM6 fusion protein showed 7-fold higher activity than the native Cel5A on Avicel and filter paper. Cellobiose was a major product obtained from the hydrolysis of cellulosic substrates by the fusion enzyme, which was identified by using thin layer chromatography analysis. 相似文献

Two genes encoding putative family F xylanases from the tomato vascular wilt pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici have been cloned and sequenced. The two genes, designated xyl2 and xyl3, encode proteins with calculated molecular masses of 33 and 39.3?kDa and isoelectric points of 8.9 and 6.7, respectively. The predicted amino acid sequences show significant homology to other family F xylanases. XYL3 contains a cellulose-binding domain in its N-terminal region. Southern analysis suggested that xyl2 and xyl3 homologs are also present in other formae speciales of F. oxysporum. Both genes were expressed during growth on oat spelt xylan and tomato vascular tissue in vitro. RT-PCR revealed that xyl3 is expressed in roots and in the lower stems of tomato plants infected by F. oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici throughout the whole disease cycle, whereas xyl2 is only expressed during the final stages of disease. 相似文献

Fungal cellobiohydrolases act at liquid-solid interfaces. They have the ability to hydrolyze cellulose chains of a crystalline substrate because of their two-domain structure, i.e. cellulose-binding domain and catalytic domain, and unique active site architecture. However, the details of the action of the two domains on crystalline cellulose are still unclear. Here, we present real time observations of Trichoderma reesei (Tr) cellobiohydrolase I (Cel7A) molecules sliding on crystalline cellulose, obtained with a high speed atomic force microscope. The average velocity of the sliding movement on crystalline cellulose was 3.5 nm/s, and interestingly, the catalytic domain without the cellulose-binding domain moved with a velocity similar to that of the intact TrCel7A enzyme. However, no sliding of a catalytically inactive enzyme (mutant E212Q) or a variant lacking tryptophan at the entrance of the active site tunnel (mutant W40A) could be detected. This indicates that, besides the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds, the loading of a cellulose chain into the active site tunnel is also essential for the enzyme movement. 相似文献

Clostridium thermocellum produces an extracellular cellulase complex termed the cellulosome. It consists of a scaffolding protein, CipA, containing nine cohesin domains and a cellulose-binding domain, and at least 14 different enzymatic subunits, each containing a conserved duplicated sequence, or dockerin domain. The cohesin-dockerin interaction is responsible for the assembly of the catalytic subunits into the cellulosome structure. Each duplicated sequence of the dockerin domain contains a region bearing homology to the EF-hand calcium-binding motif. Two subdomains, each containing a putative calcium-binding motif, were constructed from the dockerin domain of CelS, a major cellulosomal catalytic subunit. These subdomains, called DS1 and DS2, were cloned by PCR and expressed in Escherichia coli. The binding of DS1 and DS2 to R3, the third cohesin domain of CipA, was analyzed by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis. A stable complex was formed only when R3 was combined with both DS1 and DS2, indicating that the two halves of the dockerin domain interact with each other and such interaction is required for effective binding of the dockerin domain to the cohesin domain. 相似文献

The thermostability of cellobiohydrolase I Cel7A from Trichoderma reesei was investigated using dynamic light scattering. While the whole enzyme displayed a melting point of 59 °C, the catalytic domain obtained via papain-catalyzed proteolysis was shown to denature at 51 °C and the cellulose-binding domain (with linker attached) melted at 65-66 °C. This variation in individual melting temperatures is proposed to account for the full retention of binding capacity of Cel7A at 50 °C, along with a loss of catalytic activity observed for the catalytic domain alone. Thus, the cellulose-binding domain of Cel7A acts as a thermostabilizing domain for the enzyme. The effect of reducing agents on the protein melting behavior was also investigated. 相似文献

Mutagenesis of cellulase EGZ for studying the general protein secretory pathway in Erwinia chrysanthemi 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3
Extracellular secretion of endoglucanase Z (EGZ) from Erwinia chrysanthemi is mediated by the so-called Out general secretion pathway and, presumably, involves recognition of EGZ-carried structural information by one or more of the Out proteins. Investigating the relationships between structure and secretability of EGZ was the purpose of the present work. EGZ is made of two independent domains, located at the N-and C-proximal sides, separated by a Ser/Thr-rich region, which are responsible for catalysis and cellulose-binding, respectively. The existence of a secretion region (‘targeting signal’) was investigated by studying the secretability of modified EGZ derivatives. These resulted from deletion or peptide insertion and were designed by using the domain organization cited above as a guide. Catalytic and/or cellulose-binding tests showed that all proteins exhibited at least a functional EGZ domain while immunoblot analyses confirmed that neither the insertions nor the deletions led to grossly misfolded proteins. In contrast, all of the proteins lost their secretability in E. chrysanthemi. This suggested that at least two secretion motifs existed, one lying within each functional domain. The role of the Ser/Thr-rich linker region was subsequently tested. Accordingly, two proteins containing a linker region whose length was increased by the addition of 8 and 18 additional residues and one protein lacking the linker region were studied. All three exhibited endoglucanase activity and cellulose-binding ability, confirming the independence of the domains within the context of EGZ/polysaccharide interaction. In contrast, none was secreted by E. chrysanthemi. Collectively, our results with EGZ (i) suggest the occurrence of multiple secretion-related sites either acting sequentially or forming a single three-dimensional secretion signal, (ii) show that secretability is not determined by either one of the two functional domains alone, and (iii) reveal that the linker region plays a role in secretion. We propose that all EGZ derivatives were impaired in the recognition step, the nature of which is discussed. 相似文献

Ni2+-binding staphylococci were generated through surface display of combinatorially engineered variants of a fungal cellulose-binding domain (CBD) from Trichoderma reesei cellulase Cel7A. Novel CBD variants were generated by combinatorial protein engineering through the randomization of 11 amino acid positions, and eight potentially Ni2+-binding CBDs were selected by phage display technology. These new variants were subsequently genetically introduced into chimeric surface proteins for surface display on Staphylococcus carnosus cells. The expressed chimeric proteins were shown to be properly targeted to the cell wall of S. carnosus cells, since full-length proteins could be extracted and affinity purified. Surface accessibility for the chimeric proteins was demonstrated, and furthermore, the engineered CBDs, now devoid of cellulose-binding capacity, were shown to be functional with regard to metal binding, since the recombinant staphylococci had gained Ni2+-binding capacity. Potential environmental applications for such tailor-made metal-binding bacteria as bioadsorbents in biofilters or biosensors are discussed. 相似文献

The structural gene for the major cellulase of Erwinia carotovora subspecies carotovora (Ecc) was isolated and expressed in Escherichia coli. Sequencing of the gene (celV) revealed a typical signal sequence and two functional domains in the enzyme; a catalytic domain linked by a short proline/threonine-rich linker to a cellulose-binding domain (CBD). The deduced amino acid sequence of the catalytic domain showed homology with cellulases of Family A, including enzymes from Bacillus spp. and Erwinia chrysanthemi CelZ, whereas the CBD showed homology with cellulases from several diverse families, supporting a “mix-and-match” hypothesis for evolution of this domain. Analysis of the substrate specificity of CelV showed it to be an endoglucanase with some exoglucanase activity. The pH optimum is about 7.0 and the temperature optimum about 42°C. CelV is secreted by Ecc and by the taxonomically related Erwinia carotovora subspecies atroseptica (Eca) but not by E. coli. Overproduction of the enzyme from multicopy plasmids in Ecc appears to overload the secretory mechanism. 相似文献

A cellulose-binding protein of 105 kDa (CBP105) from Cellulomonas flavigena was purified and its gene was cloned. CBP105 is a processive endoglucanase with maximum activity on carboxymethyl cellulose
(CMC) at pH 7.5 and 60°C. Limited proteolysis suggested that CBP105 is composed of one catalytic domain (CD) and two carbohydrate-binding
modules (CBM). The nucleotide sequence of the cbp105 gene (AY729806) indicates that CBP105 is a modular enzyme with a family 9 glycoside hydrolase CD linked to a family 3 CBM,
two fibronectin III-like domains and a family 2 CBM. This structural organization may be responsible for CBP105 processive
CMC degradation. 相似文献

Multifunctional proteins, which play a critical role in many biological processes, have typically evolved through the recruitment of different domains that have the required functional diversity. Thus the different activities displayed by these proteins are mediated by spatially distinct domains, consistent with the specific chemical requirements of each activity. Indeed, current evolutionary theory argues that the colocalization of diverse activities within an enzyme is likely to be a rare event, because it would compromise the existing activity of the protein. In contrast to this view, a potential example of multifunctional recruitment into a single protein domain is provided by CtCel5C-CE2, which contains an N-terminal module that displays cellulase activity and a C-terminal module, CtCE2, which exhibits a noncatalytic cellulose-binding function but also shares sequence identity with the CE2 family of esterases. Here we show that, unlike other CE2 members, the CtCE2 domain displays divergent catalytic esterase and noncatalytic carbohydrate binding functions. Intriguingly, these diverse activities are housed within the same site on the protein. Thus, a critical component of the active site of CtCE2, the catalytic Ser-His dyad, in harness with inserted aromatic residues, confers noncatalytic binding to cellulose whilst the active site of the domain retains its esterase activity. CtCE2 catalyses deacetylation of noncellulosic plant structural polysaccharides to deprotect these substrates for attack by other enzymes. Yet it also acts as a cellulose-binding domain, which promotes the activity of the appended cellulase on recalcitrant substrates. The CE2 family encapsulates the requirement for multiple activities by biocatalysts that attack challenging macromolecular substrates, including the grafting of a second, powerful and discrete noncatalytic binding functionality into the active site of an enzyme. This article provides a rare example of “gene sharing,” where the introduction of a second functionality into the active site of an enzyme does not compromise the original activity of the biocatalyst. 相似文献

The non-catalytic region of the Clostridium stercorarium cellulase CelZ (Avicelase I) comprises two protein segments (C and C′) grouped into different subfamilies of cellulose-binding domain (CBD) family III. The C-terminally located family IIIb domain C was identified as a true cellulose-binding domain responsible for anchoring the CelZ enzyme to cellulose. The family IIIc domain C′ immediately adjacent to the catalytic domain was unable to mediate binding to cellulose. A deletion study revealed a lack of independence of this pair of domains: almost the entire C′ domain was required to maintain the catalytic activity and the thermostability of the enzyme. 相似文献

Characterization and gene cloning of a cold-active cellulase from a deep-sea psychrotrophic bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. DY3 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The celX gene encoding an extracellular cold-active cellulase was isolated from a psychrotrophic bacterium, which was isolated from deep-sea sediment and identified as a Pseudoalteromonas species. It encoded a protein consisting of 492 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 52.7 kDa. The CelX consisted of an N-terminal catalytic domain belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 5 and a C-terminal cellulose-binding domain belonging to carbohydrate-binding module family 5. The long linker sequence connecting both domains was composed of 105 residues. The optimal temperature for cellulase activity of CelX was 40°C. The enzyme was most active at pH 6–7 and showed better resistance to alkaline condition. The zymogram activity analysis indicated that the CelX consisted of single enzyme component. The cellobiose was main hydrolysate of CelX. 相似文献

Previously, we identified three gene loci, Dic1, Dic2, and Dic3, that confer high-osmolarity adaptation and dicarboximide/phenylpyrrole fungicide sensitivity in Cochliobolus heterostrophus. Dic1 encoded a group III histidine kinase, but the other genes were not characterized. In the present study, we revealed that both Dic2 and Dic3 are involved in the Skn7 pathway. Dic2 encoded an Skn7-type response regulator, ChSkn7. Strain N4502 contained D359N in the response regulator domain of ChSkn7. Strain E4503 contained a deletion of 50 amino acids in the DNA-binding domain. Strain N4507 was a null mutant of the ChSkn7 gene. All of the dic2 mutant strains showed similar levels of sensitivity to high osmolarity and similar levels of resistance to fungicides. These results strongly suggested that both the DNA-binding domain and response regulator domain are essential for Skn7 function in osmotic adaptation and fungicide sensitivity. A western blot analysis revealed that Dic3 is not involved in the regulation of Hog1-type MAPKs. The Chssk1/dic3 double mutant strains clearly showed greater resistance to fungicides than the single mutant strains. An additive effect was also observed in the high-osmolarity experiments. On the other hand, the dic3/dic2 double mutant strains did not show higher levels of resistance to fungicides and greater sensitivity to KCl than the single mutant strains. These results strongly suggested that the dic3 locus confer high-osmolarity adaptation and fungicide sensitivity independently from Ssk1-Hog1 pathway, but not the Skn7 pathway. Moreover, the dic3 strain and all dic2 strains showed similar levels of sensitivity to high-osmolarity stress and similar levels of resistance to fungicides, suggesting Dic3 to have an essential role in the Skn7 pathway. Our results provide new insight into the functions of the Skn7 pathway in filamentous fungi. 相似文献

The Clostridium josui cipA and celD genes, encoding a scaffolding-like protein (CipA) and a putative cellulase (CelD), respectively, have been cloned and sequenced. CipA, with an estimated molecular weight of 120,227, consists of an N-terminal signal peptide, a cellulose-binding domain of family III, and six successive cohesin domains. The molecular architecture of C. josui CipA is similar to those of the scaffolding proteins reported so far, such as Clostridium thermocellum CipA, Clostridium cellulovorans CbpA, and Clostridium cellulolyticum CipC, but C. josui CipA is considerably smaller than the other scaffolding proteins. CelD consists of an N-terminal signal peptide, a family 48 catalytic domain of glycosyl hydrolase, and a dockerin domain. N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis of the C. josui cellulosomal proteins indicates that both CipA and CelD are major components of the cellulosome. 相似文献
