Abstract

To prepare evolved PHB depolymerase with increased activity for PHB or P(3HB-co-3HV) compared to the activity of the original PHB depolymerase from Alcaligenes faecalis T1, random mutation of the cloned PHB depolymerase gene was performed by using a DNA shuffling method. A library of mutated PHB depolymerase genes from A. faecalis T1 was fused to the ice nucleation protein (INP) gene from Pseudomonas syringae in pJHCl 1 and approximately 7,000 transformants were isolated. Using M9 minimal medium containing PHB or P(3HB-co-3HV) as the carbon source, mutants showing alteration in PHB depolymerase activity were selected from the transformants. The PHB depolymease activity of the transformants was confirmed by the formation of halo around colony and the turbidity decrease tests using culture supermatants. The catalytic activity of PHB depolymerase of the best mutant II-4 for PHB or P(3HB-co-13 mol% 3HV) was approximately 1.8-fold and 3.2-fold, respectively, higher than that of the original PHB depolymerase. DNA sequence analysis revealed that three amino acid residues (Ala209Val, Leu258Phe, and Asp263Thr) were substituted in II-4. From the mutational analysis, it was presumed that the substitution of amino acids near catalytic triad to more hydrophobic amino acids enhance the catalytic activity of PHB depolymerase from A. faecalis T1.

Alcaligenes faecalis T1의 Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)(PHB) depolymerase활성 증진을 위해 DNA shuffling방법을 이용하였다. 제조된 A. faecalis T1의 PHB depolymerase 돌연변이 유전자의 library를 Pseudomonas syringae의 icenucleation protein유전자를 포함하는 발현벡터 pJHCll에 클로닝하여 약 7,000개의 형질전환체를 얻었다. 탄소원으로 PHB또는 poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)를 포함하는 M9최소배지를 이용하여 형질전환체들로부터 활성이 서로 다른 돌연변이주들을 선별하였다. 이들의 PHB depolymease 활성은 평판배지에서의 halo형성 및 배양 상등액을 이용한 탁도 감소 실험으로 확인하였으며,형질전환체들 중에서 shuffling전의 대조군에 비하여 사용된 기질에 따라 효소활성이 1.8-3.2배 증진된 II-4 돌연변이주를 얻었다. DNA 염기서열의 분석을 통하여 II-4의 PHB depolymease에는 3개의 아미노산 치환(A1a209Va1, Leu258Phe, Asp263Thr)이 이루어졌음을 확인하였다. 여러 가지 돌연변이주의 아미노산 서열의 변화를 분석한 결과, PHB depolymerase의 catalytictriad주위에 기존 아미노산에 비하여 보다 소수성인 아미노산으로의 치환이 소수성 기질인 PHB에 대한분해 활성 중진에 기여하는 것으로 추정되었다.
