Isolation and characterization of a putative multidrug resistance pump from Vibrio cholerae

Multidrug-resistant strains of Vibrio cholerae (the causative agent of the diarrhoeal disease cholera) have recently been described. In an attempt to identify a homologue of the Escherichia coli TolC in V . cholerae , we isolated a DNA fragment (pVC) that enabled an E . coli tolC mutant to grow in the presence of 0.05% deoxycholate (DOC). However, other TolC defects were not complemented. Nucleotide sequence analysis of this fragment revealed the presence of two open reading frames (ORF1 and ORF2) separated by 9 bp and encoding 42.4 and 55.8 kDa proteins respectively. The translational products of these two ORFs correlated closely with the molecular weights of the predicted proteins. The deduced amino acid sequences of ORF1 and ORF2 showed a high degree of similarity with conserved regions of the E . coli efflux pump proteins, EmrA and EmrB. The presence of pVC2 within the E . coli efflux pump mutants defective in either the emrAB or the acrAB genes provided the mutants with resistance against several antibiotics. A V . cholerae isogenic mutant defective in ORF2 was constructed by gene replacement. Characterization of this mutant has shown it to be more sensitive to CCCP, PMA, PCP, nalidixic acid and DOC than the parent strain. These results suggest that ORF1 and ORF2 constitute an operon encoding two components of a putative multidrug resistance pump in V . cholerae . In addition, the presence of both structural and functional similarities between VceAB and EmrAB suggests that VceAB is a homologue of EmrAB.

Cloning, sequencing and expression of a dextransucrase gene (dexYG) from Leuconostoc mesenteroides

The gene dexYG encoding the dextransucrase from an industrial strain of Leuconostoc mesenteroides 0326 was isolated by PCR. The nucleotide sequence of the dexYG gene consists of an open reading frame (ORF) of 4,584 bp, coding for a 1,527 aa protein with a Mr of 170 kDa. The results were analysed by a BLAST similarity search of the GenBank database, which revealed the amino acid sequence was similiar to dsrD derived from L. mesenteroides Lcc4. The dexYG gene was subcloned into the plasmid pET28a(+) and was expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) by IPTG induction. The pH value was one of the main reasons which caused the degradation of enzyme activity in the later stage of induction. The highest activity was reached 36 U/ml after 5 h induction in medium at pH 6.0. Biotransformation yield of the enzyme reached 65% and the molecular weight of transformed dextran was more than 68 kDa in 2 h.     

Cloning, nucleotide sequence, and overexpression of the L-rhamnose isomerase gene from Pseudomonas stutzeri in Escherichia coli

The gene encoding L-rhamnose isomerase (L-RhI) from Pseudomonas stutzeri was cloned into Escherichia coli and sequenced. A sequence analysis of the DNA responsible for the L-RhI gene revealed an open reading frame of 1,290 bp coding for a protein of 430 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular mass of 46,946 Da. A comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with sequences in relevant databases indicated that no significant homology has previously been identified. An amino acid sequence alignment, however, suggested that the residues involved in the active site of L-RhI from E. coli are conserved in that from P. stutzeri. The L-RhI gene was then overexpressed in E. coli cells under the control of the T5 promoter. The recombinant clone, E. coli JM109, produced significant levels of L-RhI activity, with a specific activity of 140 U/mg and a volumetric yield of 20,000 U of soluble enzyme per liter of medium. This reflected a 20-fold increase in the volumetric yield compared to the value for the intrinsic yield. The recombinant L-RhI protein was purified to apparent homogeneity on the basis of three-step chromatography. The purified recombinant enzyme showed a single band with an estimated molecular weight of 42,000 in a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel. The overall enzymatic properties of the purified recombinant L-RhI protein were the same as those of the authentic one, as the optimal activity was measured at 60 degrees C within a broad pH range from 5.0 to 11.0, with an optimum at pH 9.0.

High-level expression, purification, and characterization of non-tagged Aspergillus flavus urate oxidase in Escherichia coli

The entire encoding region for Aspergillus flavus uricase was cloned into pET-32a and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The uricase was expressed in the E. coli cytoplasm in a completely soluble, biologically active form. A scalable process aimed to produce and purify multi-gram quantities of highly pure, recombinant urate oxidase (rUox) from E. coli was developed. The rUox protein was produced in a 30 L fermentor containing 25 L of 2x YT medium and purified to >99% purity using hydrophobic interaction, anion-exchange, and gel filtered chromatography. The final yield of purified rUox from fermentation resulted in approximately 27 g of highly pure, biologically active rUox per kg of cell paste (approximately 238 mg/8.8 g cell paste/L). The results presented here exhibit the ability to generate multi-gram quantities of rUox from E. coli that may be used for the development of pharmaceutics of reducing the hyperuricemia.
