To investigate the function of aspartic acid residue 101 and arginine residue 166 in the active site of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase (EAP), two single mutants D101S (Asp 101 →Ser) and R166K (Arg 166 →Lys) and a double mutant D101S/R166K of EAP were generated through site-directed mutagenesis based on over-lap PCR method. Their enzymatic kinetic properties, thermal stabilities and possible reaction mechanism were explored. In the presence of inorganic phosphate acceptor, 1 M diethanolamine buffer, the k cat for D101S mutant enzyme increased 10-fold compared to that of wild-type EAP. The mutant R166K has a 2-fold decrease of k cat relative to the wild-type EAP, but the double mutant D101S/R166K was in the middle of them, indicative of an additive effect of these two mutations. On the other hand, the catalytic efficiencies of mutant enzymes are all reduced because of a substantial increase of K m values. All three mutants were more resistant to phosphate inhibitor than the wild-type enzyme. The analysis of the kinetic data suggests that (1) the D101S mutant enzyme obtains a higher catalytic activity by allowing a faster release of the product; (2) the R166K mutant enzyme can reduce the binding of the substrate and phosphate competitive inhibitor; (3) the double mutant enzyme has characteristics of both quicker catalytic turnover number and decreased affinity for competitive inhibitor. Additionally, pre-steady-state kinetics of D101S and D101S/R166K mutants revealed a transient burst followed by a linear steady state phase, obviously different from that of wild-type EAP, suggesting that the rate-limiting step has partially change from the release of phosphate from non-covalent E-Pi complex to the hydrolysis of covalent E-Pi complex for these two mutants. 相似文献

结核分枝杆菌(Mycobaterium tuberculosis)是结核病的病原菌,每年导致数百万人死亡.对于分枝杆菌基本生物学特性的研究有助于新的药物及治疗手段的研发.耻垢分枝杆菌(M.smegmatis)是分枝杆菌属中的一种非致病菌,与结核分枝杆菌亲缘关系较近,是实验室常用的研究分枝杆菌的模式菌种.分枝杆菌主要编码三种染色质蛋白,类组蛋白HU、Lsr2和宿主整合因子IHF.为研究IHF在染色体包装中的作用,我们在大肠杆菌中表达、纯化了耻垢分枝杆菌IHF蛋白(MsIHF),并对其影响DNA拓扑结构的性质进行了系统分析.体外研究的结果表明,MsIHF以同二聚体的形式存在,其对负超螺旋DNA具有一定的结合偏好性,同时,该蛋白可以有效地固定DNA负超螺旋.进一步的研究表明,MsIHF可以调控拓扑异构酶的活性.MsIHF的结合明显地抑制拓扑异构酶Ⅰ的松弛活性,而与此相反,该蛋白可以轻微地促进旋转酶引入DNA负超螺旋的能力.以上结果提示,MsIHF可能通过调控拓扑异构酶的活性影响染色体DNA的结构,进而调控其包装. 相似文献

The gdh and gdhr genes, encoding B12-dependent glycerol dehydratase (GDH) and glycerol dehydratase reactivase (GDHR), respectively, in Klebsiella pneumoniae, were cloned and expressed in E. coli. Part of the β-subunit was lost during GDH purification when co-expressing α, β and γ subunit. This was overcome by fusing
the β-subunit to α- or γ-subunit with/without the insertion of a linker peptide between the fusion moieties. The kinetic properties
of the fusion enzymes were characterized and compared with wild type enzyme. The results demonstrated that the fusion protein
GDHALB/C, constructed by linking the N-terminal of β-subunit to the C-terminal of α subunit through a (Gly4Ser)4 linker peptide, had the greatest catalytic activity. Similar to the wild-type enzyme, GDHALB/C underwent mechanism-based
inactivation by glycerol during catalysis and could be reactivated by GDHR.

In a previous study, we presented the dimer structure of DNA gyrase B' domain (GyrB C-terminal domain) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and proposed a 'sluice-like' model for T-segment transport. However, the role of the dimer structure is still not well understood. Cross-linking and analytical ultracentrifugation experiments showed that the dimer structure exists both in the B' protein and in the full-length GyrB in solution. The cross-linked dimer of GyrB bound GyrA very weakly, but bound dsDNA with a much higher affinity than that of the monomer state. Using cross-linking and far-western analyses, the dimer state of GyrB was found to be involved in the ternary GyrA-GyrB-DNA complex. The results of mutational studies reveal that the dimer structure represents a state before DNA cleavage. Additionally, these results suggest that the dimer might also be present between the cleavage and reunion steps during processive transport. 相似文献

Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax disease, could be used as a biothreat reagent. It is vital to develop a rapid, convenient method to detect B. anthracis. In the current study, three high affinity and specificity monoclonal antibodies (mAbs, designated 8G3, 10C6 and 12F6) have been obtained using fully washed B. anthracis spores as an immunogen. These mAbs, confirmed to direct against EA1 protein, can recognize the surface of B. anthracis spores and intact vegetative cells with high affinity and species-specificity. EA1 has been well known as a major S-layer component of B. anthracis vegetative cells, and it also persistently exists in the spore preparations and bind tightly to the spore surfaces even after rigorous washing. Therefore, these mAbs can be used to build a new and rapid immunoassay for detection of both life forms of B. anthracis, either vegetative cells or spores. 相似文献

Exonuclease X is a 3′-5′ distributive exonuclease that functions in DNA recombination and repair. It undergoes multiple rounds of binding, hydrolysis, and release to degrade long substrate molecules and thus is very inefficient. In order to identify a cofactor that elevates the excision activity of ExoX, we screened many proteins involved in repair and recombination. We observed that MutL greatly promoted the exonuclease activity of ExoX, and then verified the interaction between MutL and ExoX using SPR and Far-Western analysis. This promotion is independent of ATP and the DNA-binding activity of MutL. We constructed two deletion mutants to analyze this interaction and its regulation of ExoX activity, and found that this functional interaction with ExoX is mainly due to ionic interactions with the N-terminus of MutL. This adds a new role to MutL and gives a clue to MutL’s possible regulation on other DnaQ family exonuclease members. 相似文献

Directed evolution has been widely applied for gene improvement through random mutagenesis of coding sequences. Through error-prone PCR both in the coding sequence and the regulatory sequence of E. coli alkaline phosphatase, the cellular enzyme activity has been efficiently enhanced. Sequence analysis revealed that the resultant mutant 34-B12, which showed a sevenfold increased enzyme activity at the cellular level, contains three mutations in the regulatory sequence and another three mutations in the coding sequence. Activity assays of the enzyme containing the corresponding amino acid substitutions proved that the amino acid mutations contribute only to a small portion to the increased cellular enzyme activity. So the mutations in the 5'-untranslated region were analyzed separately and combinationally. The results suggested that one mutation yielded a stronger promoter and the other two mutations both elevated the E. coli alkaline phosphatase expression at the translational level; moreover, a stronger Shine-Dalgarno sequence was generated. 相似文献

A disposable screen-printed biosensor with dual working electrodes was first established for simultaneous determination of starch and glucose. The electrochemical behavior of the sensor was assessed using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The linear response ranges of the sensor were up to 0.4% (w/v) starch and 20 mmol glucose 1–1. Real samples were analysed using the proposed method and the reference method and the correlation coefficient was 0.997. 相似文献
