Heterologous expression and characterization of the endocellulase encoding gene cel3A from the basidiomycete Polyporus arcularius

The genomic and cDNA clones encoding the carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase) gene (cel3A) of Polyporus arcularius were sequenced and characterized. The coding region of cel3A, composed of 1329 bp, was found to encode a polypeptide of 243 amino acids that has similarity with FI-CMCase of Aspergillus aculeatus. Expression of the cel3A cDNA in Escherichia coli led to production of a nonglycosylated protein as an active form; moreover, CMCase activity measured by the viscometric method was enhanced 4.47 times by addition of cellobiose. These results indicate that glycosylation and any modification of protein such as processing are not required for Cel3A activity.

Molecular characterization of two novel esterase genes from carmine spider mite,Tetranychus cinnabarinus (Acarina: Tetranychidae)

Abstract Two novel esterase complementary DNAs were identified and cloned from the insecticide-susceptible strain of Tetranychus cinnabarinus (Boisduval) (Acarina: Tetranychidae), which were designated as TCE1 and TCE2, respectively. The cDNA of TCE1 gene contained an open reading frame (ORF) of 1701 bp encoding 567 amino acids, and a predicted molecular weight of 62.75 kDa, the cDNA of TCE2 contained an ORF of 1680 bp encoding 560 amino acids, and a predicted molecular weight of 63.14 kDa. TCE1 and TCE2 were submitted to GenBank, accession number EU130461 and EU130462. The well-conserved sequence motif, GXSXG, used as a signature pattern in the esterase family are present in both TCE1 and TCE2 (GQSAG in TCE1, whereas GESAG in TCE2), indicating that these two genes are predicted to be esterases. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with the published mite esterase sequence coming from Boophilus microplus showed that TCE1 shares 33.98% identity and TCE2 shares 33.46% identity. TCE1 and TCE2 share 46.4% identity. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction revealed that expression level of the TCE2 gene was relatively higher than that of the TCE1 in all instars examined except the protonymph, and the expression level of these two esterase genes in adults of T. cinnabarinus was significantly higher than that in any other instars, respectively. T. cinnabarinus is an important agricultural mite pest and esterases are important in the metabolisms of insects and mites; the genomic information obtained in this study will contribute to esterase molecular biological study on mite pest species.     

Mapping and regulation of the cel genes in Erwinia chrysanthemi

Summary Chromosomal mutations of the celZ and celY genes which encode two different endoglucanases in Erwinia chrysanthemi 3937 were obtained by a three-step procedure: (i) in Escherichia coli, insertions of lacZ fusion-forming mini-Mu bacteriophages in the cel genes cloned on plasmids and screening of cel-lac fusions, (ii) Mu-mediated transduction in E. chrysanthemi of the plasmids carrying the fusions, (iii) recombinational exchange between the plasmidic mutated and the wild-type chromosomal alleles. These mutations allowed mapping of celZ between ura and pan and celY between xyl and met on the linkage map of E. chrysanthemi. The -galactosidase activity of these strains indicated that celZ is expressed in the late exponential and stationary growth phases, while celY expression is almost undetectable.     

Molecular Cloning and Characterization of cel2 from the Fungus Cochlibolus carbonum

A new cellulase gene, cel2, from the filamentous fungus Cochliobolus carbonum was cloned by using egl-1 of Trichoderma reesei as a heterologous probe. DNA blot analysis of cel2 showed that this gene is present as a single copy. The gene contains one 49-bp- intron. cel2 encodes a predicted protein (Cel2p) of 423 amino acids with a molecular mass of 45.8 kDa. The predicted pI is 4.96. It shows similarity to other endoglucanases from various fungi. From the comparison with other cellulase genes, cel2 belongs to family 7 of glucohydrolases. cel2 is located on a 2.5-Mb chromosome in C. carbonum and its expression is repressed by sucrose. A cel2 mutant of C. carbonum was created by transformation-mediated gene disruption. The pathogenicity of the mutant was indistinguishable from the wild type, indicating that cel2 by itself is not important for pathogenicity.

Nutritional regulation of <Emphasis Type="Italic">ANR1</Emphasis> and other root-expressed MADS-box genes in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Arabidopsis thaliana</Emphasis>

The ANR1 MADS-box gene in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. has previously been identified as a key regulator of lateral root growth in response to signals from external nitrate (NO₃⁻). We have used quantitative real-time PCR to investigate the responsiveness of ANR1 and 11 other root-expressed MADS-box genes to fluctuations in the supply of N, P and S. ANR1 expression in roots of hydroponically grown Arabidopsis plants was specifically regulated by changes in the N supply, being induced by N deprivation and rapidly repressed by N re-supply. This pattern of N responsiveness differs from the NO₃⁻ -inducibility of ANR1 previously observed in Arabidopsis root cultures [H.M. Zhang and B.G. Forde (1998) Science 279:407–409]. Seven of the other MADS-box genes responded to N in a manner similar to ANR1, but less strongly, while four (AGL12, AGL17, AGL18 and AGL79) were unaffected. Six of the N-regulated genes (ANR1, AGL14, AGL16, AGL19, SOC1 and AGL21) belong to just two clades within the type II MADS-box lineage, while the other two (AGL26 and AGL56) belong to the poorly characterized type I lineage. Only SOC1 was additionally found to respond to changes in the P and S supply, suggesting a possible role in a general response to nutrient stress. Studies with an ANR1 transposon-insertion mutant provided no evidence for regulatory interactions between ANR1 and the other root-expressed MADS-box genes. The implications of the current data for our understanding of the role of ANR1 and other MADS box genes in the nutritional regulation of lateral root growth are discussed.     

Interaction between the CBM of Cel9A from Thermobifida fusca and cellulose fibers

Molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were used to investigate the binding of a cellodextrin chain in a crystal-like conformation to the carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) of Cel9A from Thermobifida fusca. The fiber was found to bind to the CBM in a single and well-defined configuration in-line with the catalytic cleft, supporting the hypothesis that this CBM plays a role in the catalysis by feeding the catalytic domain (CD) with a polysaccharide chain. The results also expand the current known list of residues involved in the binding. The polysaccharide-protein attachment is shown to be mediated by five amine/amide-containing residues. E478 and E559 were found not to interact directly with the sugar chain; instead they seem to be responsible to stabilize the binding motif via hydrogen bonds.

Purification and properties of two endo-1,4-beta-xylanases from Irpex lacteus (Polyporus tulipiferae)

Two different endo-1,4-beta-xylanases [1,4-beta-D-xylan xylanohydrolases, EC 3.2.1.8], named Xylanases I and III, were purified to homogeneity by gel filtration and ion exchange column chromatography from Driselase, a commercial enzyme preparation from Irpex lacteus (Polyporus tulipiferae). The purified enzymes were found to be homogeneous on polyacrylamide disc electrophoresis and their specific activities toward xylan were increased approximately 28.7 and 19.8 times, respectively. The activities of each enzyme were considerably inhibited by Hg2+, Ag+, and Mn2+. Their molecular weights were estimated to be approximately 38,000 and 62,000 by gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide electrophoresis, respectively. Their carbohydrate contents were 2.5% and 8.0% as glucose, and their amino acid composition patterns resembled each other, showing high contents of acidic amino acids, serine, threonine, alanine, and glycine. Both enzymes were most active at pH 6.0 but Xylanase I was more stable as to pH. Their optimum temperatures were 60 degrees C and 70 degrees C, respectively. Xylanase I split up to 34.5% of larchwood xylan whereas Xylanase III split only 18.9% of it. The products with the former were mainly xylose (X1), xylobiose (X2), and xylotriose (X3), whereas X2 and X3 were the main products with the latter. Both enzymes did not hydrolyze X2. Xylanase I produced almost equal quantities of X1 and X2 from X3, while Xylanase III did not attack this substrate. Both enzymes showed no activity toward glycans, other than xylan, such as starch, pachyman and Avicel (microcrystalline cellulose), except the almost one twentieth activity of Xylanase III toward sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC).
