The K296-D320 region of recombinant levansucrase BA-SacB can affect the sensitivity of Escherichia coli host to sucrose
Résumé
Purpose A mutant BA-SacB-Del encoding BA-SacB minus K296-D320 region was constructed to analyze its effect on catalytic characteristics of the enzyme as well as help deepen understanding of the catalytic mechanism of BA-SacB and even proteins of GH68 family. Methods Based on the comparison of levansucrases from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (BA-SacB) and Sphingopyxis macrogoltabida (SM-Lev), a mutant BA-SacB-Del encoding BA-SacB minus K296-D320 region was constructed and its effect on catalytic characteristics of the enzyme was analyzed. Results Deletion of this region would undoubtedly affect the conserved structure (i.e., central negatively charged cavity surrounded by five antiparallel β-strands) shared by the GH68 family. Therefore, Escherichia coli-expressing mutant BA-SacB-Del could more efficiently catalyze the production of levan in media containing high concentration of sucrose, which is unrealizable for BA-SacB. Conclusions This result should be valuable for understanding this conditional lethal mechanism. Therefore, this study should be very valuable for understanding the catalytic mechanism of BA-SacB and even proteins of the GH68 family. More importantly, levan can be conveniently produced by direct fermentation of sucrose-containing media with E. coli-expressing BA-SacB-Del which is not sensitive to sucrose.
