BmK AngM1, a scorpion peptide isolated from Buthus martensii Karch was reported to exhibit potential analgesic effect. But the relative low content of this toxin in crude venom limits its further characterization. In this study, we constructed an expression vector and transformed into E.coli. The BmK AngM1 was expressed as a fusion protein in the soluble fraction and was purified by Nickel affinity chromatography. Subsequently, the purified fusion protein was cleaved by enterokinase and was further purified by reverse-phase HPLC. We purified 25 mg recombinant BmK AngM1 (rBmK AngM1) from 1 L bacterial culture. The molecular weight of rBmK AngM1 determined by ESI-MS was 7240.4 Da which was the expected size for correctly processed. Analgesic bioassay studies of rBmK AngM1 exhibited its potential analgesic effect comparable to that of the natural BmK AngM1 peptide. 相似文献

Anew peptide, designated as Buthus martensi Karch (BmK) AngM1, with an isoelectric point (pI) of 5.8 was purified and characterized from the venom of Buthus martensi Karch. The molecular mass was calculated as 7040.5 Da from multiple-charged ions by elelctrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI/MS). The complete amino acid sequence of BmK AngM1 of 64 amino acid residues was determined by automatic sequencing of N-terminal part of the native peptide and the fragments of reduced and S-carboxymethylated (RCM)-peptide degraded by Staphylococcus aureaus V(8) protease and TPCK(N-p-Tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone)-treated trypsin. Bioactivity tested using mouse-twisting model showed an evident analgesic effect with 63.0% (P < 0.001) inhibition efficiency at the dose of 0.8 mg/kg, but the LD(50) was larger than 50 mg/kg. Electrophysiological studies showed that BmK AngM1 at the concentration of 1 microm obviously inhibit voltage-dependent Na(+) current (I(Na)) and voltage-dependent delayed rectifier K(+) current (I(K)) but had no effects on transient K(+) current. 相似文献

In this study, the role of two conversed tyrosines (Tyr5 and Tyr42) from the scorpion toxin BmK AGP-SYPU1 was investigated with an effective Escherichia coli expression system. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to individually substitute Tyr5 and Tyr42 with hydrophobic or hydrophilic amino acids, and the extent to which these scorpion toxin BmK AGP-SYPU1 tyrosines contribute to analgesic activity was evaluated. The results of the mouse-twisting test showed that Tyr5 and Tyr42 are associated with the analgesic activity of the toxin because the analgesic activities of Y5F and Y42F were significantly increased compared with the rBmK AGP-SYPU1; however, the Y5W had decreased activity. The results of molecular simulation reveal the following: (1) for analgesic activity, the core domain of the scorpion toxin BmK AGP-SYPU1 is key and (2) for pharmacological function, Tyr42 is most likely involved when the core domain conformation is altered. These studies identify a new relationship between the structure and analgesic activity of the scorpion toxin BmK AGP-SYPU1 and are significant for further research and the application of analgesic peptides. 相似文献

Transglutaminases (TGases) catalyze post-translational protein modifications by ε-(γ-glutamyl) links and covalent amide bonds. In plant, this enzyme is poorly studied and only the Zea mays TGase gene (tgz) has been cloned. The tgz had been expressed in Escherichia coli, but the recombinant protein was mainly present in inclusion bodies. Therefore, to obtain active, soluble protein, we optimized its coding sequence according to the codon bias of Pichia pastoris and synthesized the sequence with SOEing-PCR. The optimized fragment was successfully transformed into P. pastoris GS115 by electroporation. The optimal conditions for expression were under a final concentration of 0.5 % methanol and a time-course of 96 h. The synthesized recombinant Zea mays transglutaminase (TGZs) was purified by affinity method, its production was 4.4 mg/L, and the specific activity was 0.889 U/mg under optimal expression condition. Optimal activity for TGZs was observed at 37 °C and a pH of 8.0, respectively. The cross-linking reaction of TGZs to the casein was studied, and the result was same as the reaction of casein by microbial transglutaminase. These results indicated that an effective procedure for expressing and purifying TGZs in P. pastoris GS115 was established. 相似文献

The Sphingopyxis sp. 113P3 gene oph, encoding oxidized polyvinyl alcohol hydrolase (OPH), was optimized with the preferred codons of Pichia pastoris and ligated into the pPIC9K vector behind the α-factor signal sequence. The vector was then transfected into P. pastoris GS115 and genomic integration was confirmed. Large-scale production of recombinant protein was performed by induction with 14.4 g/L methanol at 22 °C in a 3-L bioreactor. The maximal OPH activity obtained was 68.4 U/mL, which is the highest activity reported. The optimal pH and temperature of recombinant OPH were 8.0 and 45 °C, respectively. OPH activity was stable over a pH range of 5.0–8.5, and at a maximal temperature of 45 °C. The K cat /K m of recombinant OPH was 598 mM?1 s?1, which was 4.27-fold higher than that of recombinant OPH derived from Escherichia coli. The improved catalytic efficiency of OPH expressed in recombinant P. pastoris makes it favorable for industrial applications. 相似文献

A full-length cDNA sequence of Aoxyn11A, a mesophilic xylanase-encoding gene from Aspergillus oryzae, was obtained from total RNA, using 3′ and 5′ rapid amplification of cDNA ends methods. The cDNA sequence is 1,086 base pairs in length, containing 5′-untranslated and 3′-untranslated regions and an open reading frame encoding a 20 amino acid (aa) signal peptide, a 24 aa propeptide and a 188 aa mature peptide (designated AoXyn11A). Multiple alignments verified that AoXyn11A belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 11. Its three-dimensional structure was predicted by multiple templates–based homology modeling. In addition, an AoXyn11A-encoding cDNA gene was extracellularly expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115, mediated by the modified pPIC9K vector. One P. pastoris transformant, numbered as GSAorX4-3 and having the highest recombinant AoXyn11A (reAoXyn11A) activity of 98.0 U/ml, was chosen. The reAoXyn11A showed maximum activity at pH 5.5 and 50 °C. It was highly stable at a pH range of 4.0–8.0 and at 40 °C. Its activity was not significantly affected by metal ions that were tested or EDTA, but was strongly inhibited by Mn2+ and Ag+. The K m and V max of the reAoXyn11A were 1.85 mg/ml and 3,018 U/mg, respectively. 相似文献

The natural coagulant Moringa oleifera lectin (MoL) as cationic protein is a promising candidate in coagulation process of water treatment plant. Introducing the gene encoding MoL into a host, Pichia pastoris, to secrete soluble recombinant protein is assessed in this study. Initial screening using PCR confirmed the insertion of MoL gene, and SDS-PAGE analysis detected the MoL protein at 8 kDa. Cultured optimization showed the highest MoL protein at 520 mg/L was observed at 28 °C for 144 h of culturing by induction in 1% methanol. Approximately, 0.40 mg/mL of recombinant MoL protein showed 95 ± 2% turbidity removal of 1% kaolin suspension. In 0.1% kaolin suspension, the concentration of MoL at 10 μg/mL exhibits the highest turbidity reduction at 68 ± 1%. Thus, recombinant MoL protein from P. pastoris is an effective coagulant for water treatment. 相似文献

A 1,965-bp fragment encoding a poly(vinyl alcohol) dehydrogenase (PVADH) from Sphingopyxis sp. 113P3 was synthesized based on the codon bias of the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. The fragment was then amplified by polymerase chain reaction and inserted into the site between EcoRI and NotI sites in pPIC9K, which was under the control of the AOX1 promoter and α-mating factor signal sequence from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The recombinant plasmid, designated as pPIC9K-PVADH, was linearized using SalI and transformed into P. pastoris GS115 by electroporation. The PVADH activity reached 55 U/mL in a shake flask and 902 U/mL in a 3-L bioreactor. Surprisingly, the sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis and N-terminal sequencing indicated that the secreted PVADH was truncated, and it had only 548 amino acid residues (an 81-amino acid sequence from the secreted protein was cleaved). The optimum pH and temperature ranges for the truncated PVADH were 7.0–8.0 and 41–53 °C, respectively. The activation energy of the recombinant truncated PVADH was approximately 10.36 kcal/mol between 29 and 41 °C. Both Ca2+ and Mg2+ had stimulating effects on the activity of PVADH. With PVA1799 as the substrate, the truncated PVADH had a Michaelis constant (K m) of 1.89 mg/mL and a maximum reaction rate (V max) of 34.9 nmol/(min mg protein). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the expression of PVADH in P. pastoris, and the achieved PVADH yield is the highest ever reported. 相似文献

A cDNA gene (Auxyn10A), which encodes a mesophilic family 10 xylanase from Aspergillus usamii E001 (abbreviated to AuXyn10A), was amplified and inserted into the XhoI and NotI sites of pPIC9KM vector constructed from a parent pPIC9K. The recombinant expression vector, designated pPIC9KM-Auxyn10A, was transformed into Pichia pastoris GS115. All P. pastoris transformants were spread on a MD plate, and then inoculated on geneticin G418-containing YPD plates for screening multiple copies of integration of the Auxyn10A. One transformant expressing the highest recombinant AuXyn10A (reAuXyn10A) activity of 368.6 U/ml, numbered as P. pastoris GSX10A4-14, was selected by flask expression test. SDS-PAGE assay demonstrated that the reAuXyn10A was extracellularly expressed with an apparent M.W. of 39.8 kDa. The purified reAuXyn10A displayed the maximum activity at pH 5.5 and 50 °C. It was highly stable at a broad pH range of 4.5–8.5, and at a temperature of 45 °C. Its activity was not significantly affected by EDTA and several metal ions except Mn2+, which caused a strong inhibition. The K m and V max, towards birchwood xylan at pH 5.5 and 50 °C, were 2.25 mg/ml and 6,267 U/mg, respectively. TLC analysis verified that the AuXyn10A is an endo-β-1,4-d-xylanase, which yielded a major product of xylotriose and a small amount of xylose, xylotetraose, and xylopentose from birchwood xylan, but no xylobiose. 相似文献

A codon-optimized Escherichia coli appA phytase gene was synthesized and expressed in Pichia pastoris. Two residue substitutions (Q258N, Q349N) were sequentially introduced to enhance its glycosylation activity. Secretion of appA-Q258N/Q349N was approx. 0.3 mg ml?1 and enzyme activity reached 1,030 U ml?1. Purified appA-Q258N/Q349N had a specific activity of 3,137 U mg?1 with an MW of approx. 53 kDa. Compared with appA-WT, appA-Q258N/Q349N showed over 40 % enhancement in thermostability (85 °C for 10 min) and 4–5 °C increases in the melting temperatures (Tm). The Km and Kcat of appA-Q258N/Q349N were 0.43 mM and 3,058 s?1, respectively, which are similar with that of appA-WT. The mutant appA-Q258N/Q349N obtained in this study could be used for the large-scale commercial production of phytase. 相似文献

Aspergillus niger glucose oxidase (GOx) genes for wild-type (GenBank accession no. X16061, swiss-Prot; P13006) and M12 mutant (N2Y, K13E, T30 V, I94 V, K152R) were cloned into pPICZαA vector for expression in Pichia pastoris KM71H strain. The highest expression level of 17.5 U/mL of fermentation media was obtained in 0.5 % (v/v) methanol after 9 days of fermentation. The recombinant GOx was purified by cross-flow ultrafiltration using membranes of 30 kDa molecular cutoff and DEAE ion-exchange chromatography at pH 6.0. Purified wt GOx had k cat of 189.4 s?1 and K m of 28.26 mM while M12 GOx had k cat of 352.0 s?1 and K m of 13.33 mM for glucose at pH 5.5. Specificity constants k cat/K m of wt (6.70 mM?1 s?1) and M12 GOx (26.7 mM?1 s?1) expressed in P. pastoris KM71H were around three times higher than for the same enzymes previously expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae InvSc1 strain. The pH optimum and sugar specificity of M12 mutant of GOx remained similar to the wild-type form of the enzyme, while thermostability was slightly decreased. M12 GOx expressed in P. pastoris showed three times higher activity compared to the wt GOx toward redox mediators like N,N-dimethyl-nitroso-aniline used for glucose strips manufacturing. M12 mutant of GOx produced in P. pastoris KM71H could be useful for manufacturing of glucose biosensors and biofuel cells. 相似文献

An acidophilic β-mannanase-encoding gene (Auman5A) from Aspergillus usamii YL-01-78 was amplified and inserted into pPIC9K and pPICZαA vectors. The resulting recombinant vector, pPIC9K-Auman5A, was transformed into Pichia pastoris GS115. One strain having the highest recombinant β-mannanase activity of 54.6 U/ml, labeled GSKM4-8, was chosen from the first-batch P. pastoris transformants. Then, the pPICZαA-Auman5A was transformed into GSKM4-8 again. From the second-batch transformants, one strain (GSKZαM4-2) with the highest β-mannanase activity of 78.1 U/ml was obtained, and used to optimize expression conditions. As GSKZαM4-2 was induced under the optimized conditions (initial pH value 6.5, induction period 120 h, methanol concentration 1.5 %, and induction temperature 32 °C), β-mannanase activity reached 162.8 U/ml. Protein and carbohydrate assays showed that the β-mannanase, a glycoprotein with an apparent molecular weight of 49.8 kDa and a carbohydrate content of 21.3 %, was extracellularly expressed. It displayed the maximum activity at pH 3.0 and 70 °C, and was stable at a pH range of 3.0–7.0 and at 60 °C. Its activity was not significantly affected by metal ions tested and EDTA, but inhibited by Ag+ and Hg2+. Its most favorable substrate was locust bean gum, followed by konjac flour and guar gum. The K m and V max towards locust bean gum were 1.36 mg/ml and 415.8 U/mg, respectively. These results suggested that the β-mannanase can be expressed with higher level and possesses superior enzymatic properties, making it a good candidate in industrial processes. 相似文献

The phytase (PPHY) of Pichia anomala has the requisite properties of thermostability and acidstability, broad substrate spectrum, and protease insensitivity, which make it a suitable candidate as a feed and food additive. The 1,389-bp PPHY gene was amplified from P. anomala genomic DNA, cloned in pPICZαA, and expressed extracellularly in P. pastoris X33. Three copies of PPHY have been detected integrated into the chromosomal DNA of the recombinant P. pastoris. The size exclusion chromatography followed by electrophoresis of the pure rPPHY confirmed that this is a homohexameric glycoprotein of ~420 kDa with a 24.3 % portion as N-linked glycans. The temperature and pH optima of rPPHY are 60 °C and 4.0, similar to the endogenous enzyme. The kinetic characteristics K m, V max, K cat, and K cat/K m of rPPHY are 0.2 ± 0.03 mM, 78.2 ± 1.43 nmol mg?1 s?1, 65,655 ± 10.92 s?1, and 328.3 ± 3.12 μM?1 s?1, respectively. The optimization of medium components led to a 21.8-fold improvement in rPPHY production over the endogenous yeast. The rPPHY titer attained in shake flasks could also be sustained in the laboratory fermenter. The rPPHY accounts for 57.1 % of the total secreted protein into the medium. The enzyme has been found useful in fractionating allergenic protein glycinin from soya protein besides dephytinization. 相似文献

Trichoderma asperellum parasitizes a large variety of phytopathogenic fungi. The mycoparasitic activity of T. asperellum depends on the secretion of complex mixtures of hydrolytic enzymes able to degrade the host cell wall and proteases which are a group of enzymes capable of degrading proteins from host. In this study, a full-length cDNA clone of aspartic protease gene, TaAsp, from T. asperellum was obtained and sequenced. The 1,185 bp long cDNA sequence was predicted to encode a 395 amino acid polypeptide with molecular mass of 42.3 kDa. The cDNA of TaAsp was inserted into the pPIC9K vector and transformed into yeast Pichia pastoris GS115 for heterologous expression. A clearly visible band with molecular mass about 42 kDa in the SDS-PAGE gel indicated that the transformant harboring the gene TaAsp had been successfully translated in P. pastoris and produced a recombinant protein. Enzyme characterization test showed that the optimum fermentation time for P. pastoris GS115 transformant was 72 h. Enzyme activity of the recombinant aspartic proteinase remained relatively stable at 25–60 °C and pH 3.0–9.0, which indicated its good prospect of application in biocontrol. The optimal pH value and temperature of the enzyme activity were pH 4.0 and 40 °C, and under this condition, with casein as the substrate, the recombinant protease activity was 18.5 U mL?1. In order to evaluate antagonistic activity of the recombinant protease against pathogenic fungi, five pathogenic fungi, Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria alternata, Cytospora chrysosperma, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Rhizoctonia solani, were applied to the test of in vitro inhibition of their mycelial growth by culture supernatant of P. pastoris GS115 transformant. 相似文献

Abstract In this work, Pichia pastoris was applied to produce human insulin by a simple procedure. The synthesized insulin precursor (ILP) gene was inserted into pPIC9K to obtain secretary expression plasmid pPIC9K/ILP. Pichia pastoris GS115 was transformed by pPIC9K/ILP and the high expresser was screened. In a 16 L fermentor, the insulin precursor production was 3.6 g/L. Insulin precursor, purified by one-step chromatography, was converted into human insulin by transpeptidation. The yield of the processing procedure from insulin precursor to insulin reached up to 70%. In vivo assay showed that the biological activity of the produced recombinant human insulin was 28.8 U/mg. 相似文献

The cell surface protein CD83 belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and is highly expressed on mature dendritic cells. The soluble form of CD83, sCD83, is a potential immune suppressor. In a previous study, recombinant soluble CD83 was expressed in Escherichia coli, resulting in a lack of functional glycosylation. Although eukaryotic cell systems for producing sCD83 offer the advantages of protein processing, folding, and posttranslational modification, these systems are complicated, expensive, and produce low levels of protein. To obtain more efficient expression of sCD83, we expressed human sCD83 fused with fragment crystallizable region of human IgG1 (hIgG1 Fc) in Pichia pastoris. Under the optimal conditions (time of induction, 48 h; inoculum density (OD600), 80; concentration of methanol, 3.0 %; pH 7.0–8.0; concentration of casamino acid, 5.0 %), the purified human sCD83-hIgG1 Fc (hsCD83-Ig) fusion protein existed as dimers at 25–30 mg/L culture. Treatment with PNGase F showed that purified hsCD83-Ig was modified by N-linked glycosylation. Moreover, the hsCD83-Ig expressed in the P. pastoris system could suppress lymphocyte proliferation in ConA-stimulated and one-way mixed lymphocyte reaction systems. Thus, hsCD83-Ig expressed in P. pastoris is functional and may be used in experimental therapies for graft rejection, graft-versus-host disease, and autoimmune diseases. 相似文献

β-xylosidase from thermophilic fungi Paecilomyces thermophila was functionally expressed in Pichia pastoris with a his tag in the C-terminal under the alcohol oxidase 1 (AOX1) promoter and secreted into the medium at 0.22 mg l?1. Its molecular mass was estimated to be 52.3 kDa based on the SDS-PAGE analysis, which is 1.3 times higher than the predicted 39.31 kDa from its amino acid compositions, although no potential N- or O- glycosylation sites were predicted from its amino acid sequence. This is presumed to be caused by some unpredictable posttranslational modifications based on mass spectrum analysis of the recombinant protein. The enzyme was most active at 60 °C and pH 7. It showed not only a β-xylosidase activity with a Km of 8 mM and a Vmax of 54 μmol min?1 mg?1 for hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl β-d-xylopyranoside but also an arabinofuranosidase activity (6.2 U mg?1) on p-nitrophenyl arabinofuranoside. 相似文献

NZ2114, a new variant of plectasin, was overexpressed in Pichia pastoris X-33 via pPICZαA for the first time. The total secreted protein of fermentation supernatant reached 2,390 mg/l (29 °C) and 2,310 mg/l (25 °C), and the recombinant NZ2114 (rNZ2114) reached 860 mg/l (29 °C) and 1,309 mg/l (25 °C) at 96 h induction in a 5-l fermentor, respectively.The rNZ2114 was purified by cation exchange chromatography, and its yield was 583 mg/l with 94.8 % purity. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of rNZ2114 to four ATCC strains of Staphyloccocus aureus was evaluated from 0.028 to 0.90 μM. Meanwhile, it showed potent activity (0.11–0.90 μM) to 20 clinical isolates of MRSA. The rNZ2114 killed over 99.9 % of tested S. aureus (ATCC 25923 and ATCC 43300) in Mueller-Hinton medium within 6 h when treated with 4?×?MIC. The postantibiotic effect of rNZ2114 to S. aureus ATCC 25923 and ATCC 43300 was 18.6–45.6 and 1.7–3.5 h under 1×, 2×, and 4× MIC, respectively. The fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI) indicated a synergistic effect between rNZ2114 and kanamycin, streptomycin, and vancomycin against S. aureus ATCC 25923 (FICI?=?0.125), and additivity between rNZ2114 and ampicillin, spectinomycin (FICI?=?0.625), respectively. To S. aureus ATCC 43300 [methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA)], rNZ2114 showed a synergistic effect (FICI?=?0.125–0.3125) with kanamycin, ampicillin, streptomycin, and vancomycin, and antagonism with spectinomycin (FICI?=?8.0625). The rNZ2114 caused only less than 0.1 % hemolytic activity in the concentration of 128 μg/ml, and showed a good thermostability from 20 to 80 °C. In addition, it exhibited the highest activity at pH 8.0. These results suggested that large-scale production of NZ2114 is feasible using the P. pastoris expression system, and it could be a new potential antimicrobial agent for the prevention and treatment of S. aureus especially for MRSA infections. 相似文献

Acetyl xylan esterase (AXE) from basidiomycete Coprinopsis cinerea Okayama 7 (#130) was functionally expressed in Pichia pastoris with a C-terminal tag under the alcohol oxidase 1 (AOX1) promoter and secreted into the medium at 1.5 mg l?1. Its molecular mass was estimated to be 65.5 kDa based on the SDS-PAGE analysis, which is higher than the calculated molecular mass of 40 kDa based on amino acid composition. In-silico analysis of the amino acid sequence predicted two potential N-glycosylation sites. Results from PNGase F deglycosylation and mass spectrum confirmed the presence of N-glycosylation on the recombinant AXE with predominant N-glycans HexNAc2Hex9–16. The recombinant AXE showed best activity at 40 °C and pH 8. It showed not only acetyl esterase activity with a Km of 4.3 mM and a Vmax of 2.15 U mg?1 for hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl acetate but also a butyl esterase activity for hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl butyrate with a Km of 0.11 mM and Vmax of 0.78 U mg?1. The presence of two additional amino acid residues at its native N-terminus was found to help stabilize the enzyme against the protease cleavages without affecting its activity. 相似文献

The sequences encoding the genes for endoglucanase II and cellobiohydrolase II from the fungus Trichoderma reesei QM9414 were successfully cloned and expressed in Yarrowia lipolytica under the control of the POX2 or TEF promoters, and using either the native or preproLip2 secretion signals. The expression level of both recombinant enzymes was compared with that obtained using Pichia pastoris, under the control of the AOX1 promoter to evaluate the utility of Y. lipolytica as a host strain for recombinant EGII and CBHII production. Extracellular endoglucanase activity was similar between TEF-preoproLip2-eglII expressed in Y. lipolytica and P. pastoris induced by 0.5 % (v/v) methanol, but when recombinant protein expression in P. pastoris was induced with 3 % (v/v) methanol, the activity was increased by about sevenfold. In contrast, the expression level of cellobiohydrolase from the TEF-preproLip2-cbhII cassette was higher in Y. lipolytica than in P. pastoris. Transformed Y. lipolytica produced up to 15 mg/l endoglucanase and 50 mg/l cellobiohydrolase, with the specific activity of both proteins being greater than their homologs produced by P. pastoris. Partial characterization of recombinant endoglucanase II and cellobiohydrolase II expressed in both yeasts revealed their optimum pH and temperature, and their pH and temperature stabilities were identical and hyperglycosylation had little effect on their enzymatic activity and properties. 相似文献
