Abstract: | From analysis of Ramachandran plot for NAD+-dependent formate dehydrogenase from the methylotrophic bacterium Pseudomonas sp. 101 (FDH, EC 1.2.1.2), five amino acid residues with non-optimal values phi and psi have been located in beta- and pi-turns of the FDH polypeptide chain, e.g., Asn136, Ala191, Tyr144, Asn234, and His263. To clarify their role in the enzyme stability, the residues were replaced with Gly by means of site-directed mutagenesis. The His263Gly mutation caused FDH destabilization and a 1.3-fold increase in the monomolecular inactivation rate constant. The replacements Ala191Gly and Asn234Gly had no significant effect on the stability. The mutations Asn136Gly and Tyr144Gly resulted in higher thermal stability and decreased the inactivation rate by 1.2- and 1.4-fold, respectively. The stabilizing effect of the Tyr144Gly mutation was shown to be additive when introduced into the previously obtained mutant FDH with enhanced thermal stability. |
