本发明涉及酶工程技术领域,具体涉及一种稀土依赖型醇脱氢酶突变体及其应用。The invention relates to the technical field of enzyme engineering, and in particular to a rare earth-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase mutant and application thereof.
背景技术Background technique
为了获得性能优异的酶,人类不断探索发展改造蛋白质的方法,例如初级理性设计、定向进化以及半理性设计。近年来,随着计算机运算能力大幅提升、结构生物学、计算生物学和人工智能技术的飞速发展,计算机辅助蛋白质设计受到了极大的关注,已成为蛋白质工程新的重要方向。基于结构模拟与能量计算(如Rosetta、FoldX等)和基于机器学习(如MLDE、Mutcompute等)的蛋白质计算设计已取得瞩目的成绩。In order to obtain enzymes with excellent performance, humans continue to explore and develop methods to transform proteins, such as primary rational design, directed evolution, and semi-rational design. In recent years, with the substantial improvement of computer computing power and the rapid development of structural biology, computational biology, and artificial intelligence technology, computer-aided protein design has received great attention and has become an important new direction in protein engineering. Computational protein design based on structural simulation and energy calculation (such as Rosetta, FoldX, etc.) and machine learning (such as MLDE, Mutcompute, etc.) has achieved remarkable results.
醇氧化生成酮或醛是有机合成中的重要反应。与化学方法相比,醇的酶氧化是在温和条件下进行的,不使用任何有毒试剂,且往往具有较高的催化特异性和选择性,产生的副产物较少,因此一直是醇类绿色氧化的首选。醇脱氢酶(ADHs)是常用的氧化酶。2012年,首个稀土依赖型醇脱氢酶XoxF被发掘报道,相比于同样以PQQ为辅酶的钙依赖型醇脱氢酶,XoxF表现出更高的催化活性。不同于普通的金属离子,稀土元素独特的4f价电子结构,使其具有优异的光、电、磁与催化等性能。稀土离子电子跃迁、自旋耦合与轨道杂化等特性,可以为酶工程提供更多可能性。The oxidation of alcohols to form ketones or aldehydes is an important reaction in organic synthesis. Compared with chemical methods, enzymatic oxidation of alcohols is carried out under mild conditions, without the use of any toxic reagents, and often has higher catalytic specificity and selectivity, with fewer by-products. Therefore, it has always been the first choice for the green oxidation of alcohols. Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) are commonly used oxidases. In 2012, the first rare earth-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase XoxF was discovered and reported. Compared with the calcium-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase that also uses PQQ as a coenzyme, XoxF exhibits higher catalytic activity. Unlike ordinary metal ions, the unique 4f valence electron structure of rare earth elements gives them excellent optical, electrical, magnetic and catalytic properties. The characteristics of rare earth ion electronic transitions, spin coupling and orbital hybridization can provide more possibilities for enzyme engineering.
一种来源于恶臭假单胞菌的稀土依赖型醇脱氢酶PedH,可在大肠杆菌中实现异源可溶表达,便于进行酶工程改造。有研究表明表达PedH的恶臭假单胞菌能够以乙醇作为唯一碳源生长。此外,PedH可以催化甲醇生成甲醛,而甲醇的氧化是一碳代谢的关键限速步骤,是天然甲基营养菌和人工甲基营养菌中不可或缺的一步。随着世界人口的快速增长和工业的迅速发展,资源短缺和环境污染问题已成为人类面临的巨大挑战,以一碳代谢为代表的绿色生物制造愈发受到关注。甲醇和甲烷等一碳化合物由于原料来源广泛,价格低廉,还原力高等优势,成为绿色生物制 造大宗化学品的理想原料。A rare earth-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase PedH from Pseudomonas putida can be expressed heterologously and soluble in Escherichia coli, which is convenient for enzyme engineering. Studies have shown that Pseudomonas putida expressing PedH can grow with ethanol as the sole carbon source. In addition, PedH can catalyze methanol to form formaldehyde, and the oxidation of methanol is a key rate-limiting step in one-carbon metabolism and an indispensable step in natural methylotrophic bacteria and artificial methylotrophic bacteria. With the rapid growth of the world's population and the rapid development of industry, resource shortages and environmental pollution have become huge challenges facing mankind, and green biomanufacturing represented by one-carbon metabolism has received increasing attention. One-carbon compounds such as methanol and methane have become ideal raw materials for green biomanufacturing of bulk chemicals due to their wide sources of raw materials, low prices, and high reducing power.
PedH能够催化5-羟甲基糠醛(HMF)生成5-羟甲基-2-呋喃甲酸(HFCA)并进一步氧化成为5-甲醛基呋喃-2-羧酸(FFCA)。FFCA是2,5-呋喃二甲酸(FDCA)的前体。FDCA是一种重要的生物基平台化合物,具有作为对苯二甲酸(PTA)的替代品用于合成可再生的聚2,5-呋喃二甲酸乙二醇酯(PEF)的潜力,被广泛应用于生产多种生物基高分子聚合物,例如聚酰胺、聚酯和聚氨酯等。PedH can catalyze 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to generate 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HFCA) and further oxidize it to 5-formylfuran-2-carboxylic acid (FFCA). FFCA is the precursor of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA). FDCA is an important bio-based platform compound with the potential to be used as a substitute for terephthalic acid (PTA) in the synthesis of renewable polyethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate (PEF). It is widely used in the production of a variety of bio-based polymers, such as polyamides, polyesters and polyurethanes.
然而,与大多数醇脱氢酶一样,PedH在催化氧化的过程中存在活性和稳定性较低的问题,这限制了其工业应用。因此,通过基于深度学习的MutCompute设计工具以及基于能量函数的FoldX工具相结合的方法,确定稀土依赖型醇脱氢酶PedH的待突变位点,并通过筛选得到稳定性提高和/或对甲醇、乙醇、5-羟甲基糠醛活性提高的突变体具有重要意义。可促进一碳代谢的发展,改善资源短缺和环境污染问题,推进绿色生物制造FDCA等重要化合物的研究。However, like most alcohol dehydrogenases, PedH has low activity and stability during catalytic oxidation, which limits its industrial application. Therefore, the method combines the deep learning-based MutCompute design tool and the energy function-based FoldX tool to determine the mutation sites of rare earth-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase PedH, and screens mutants with improved stability and/or increased activity for methanol, ethanol, and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, which is of great significance. It can promote the development of one-carbon metabolism, improve resource shortages and environmental pollution problems, and advance the research on green biomanufacturing of important compounds such as FDCA.

挑取实施例3中测序正确的重组菌(原始稀土依赖型醇脱氢酶重组菌和稀土依赖型醇脱氢酶突变菌株)单菌落于5mL LB液体培养基中(含50μg/mL卡那霉素),37℃振荡培养12h。按2%的接种量转接至50mL含50μg/mL卡那霉素和10g/Lα-乳糖的LB液体培养基中,30℃振荡培养12h。The recombinant bacteria (original rare earth-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase recombinant bacteria and rare earth-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase mutant strains) sequenced correctly in Example 3 were selected and placed in 5 mL LB liquid medium (containing 50 μg/mL kanamycin) and cultured at 37°C for 12 h. The inoculum was transferred to 50 mL LB liquid medium containing 50 μg/mL kanamycin and 10 g/L α-lactose at a 2% inoculum volume and cultured at 30°C for 12 h.
培养结束后,将菌液4000×g 4℃离心15min,弃上清,收集菌体。用100mM pH 8.0的Tris-HCl缓冲液洗涤菌体后,重悬于Tris-HCl缓冲液中,置于冰水浴中进行超声破胞至澄清。对破胞液8000×g 4℃离心20min,取上清液用镍柱进行亲和层析,用洗杂缓冲液(100mM Tris-HCl缓冲液,150mM NaCl,50mM咪唑,pH 8.0)洗去杂质,用洗脱缓冲液(100mM Tris-HCl缓冲液,150mM NaCl,250mM咪唑,pH 8.0)洗脱目的蛋白,将分离出来的目标蛋白置于超滤离心管中进行充分的脱盐浓缩,得到纯的目标蛋白,SDS-PAGE检测,结果如图1所示。第1泳道(超滤液)、第2泳道(洗脱液)和第4泳道(上清)在55kDa~70kDa之间存在明显的蛋 白条带,这与PedH的理论蛋白分子量(63.0kDa)相符,表明PedH的纯化成功。After the culture is completed, the bacterial solution is centrifuged at 4000×g for 15 minutes at 4°C, the supernatant is discarded, and the bacteria are collected. After washing the bacteria with 100mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.0, the bacteria are resuspended in Tris-HCl buffer and placed in an ice water bath for ultrasonic cell lysis until clarified. The cell lysis solution is centrifuged at 8000×g for 20 minutes at 4°C, and the supernatant is subjected to affinity chromatography on a nickel column. The impurities are washed with a washing buffer (100mM Tris-HCl buffer, 150mM NaCl, 50mM imidazole, pH 8.0), and the target protein is eluted with an elution buffer (100mM Tris-HCl buffer, 150mM NaCl, 250mM imidazole, pH 8.0). The separated target protein is placed in an ultrafiltration centrifuge tube for sufficient desalting and concentration to obtain a pure target protein. SDS-PAGE detection is shown in Figure 1. There are obvious protein bands between 55kDa and 70kDa in lane 1 (ultrafiltrate), lane 2 (eluate) and lane 4 (supernatant), which is consistent with the theoretical protein molecular weight of PedH (63.0kDa), indicating that PedH was successfully purified.

The reaction system contained an appropriate amount of enzyme solution, 1.5μM PQQ, 1.5μM PrCl 3 , 15mM substrate, and the total system was 200μL. The reaction medium was Tris-HCl buffer (100mM, pH 8.0), which contained 1mM PES and 150μM DCPIP. The results of the specific enzyme activity determination are shown in Figure 2. The specific enzyme activities of the mutants Q207N, H486Y and the combined mutant Q207N/H486Y on the three substrates were significantly improved compared with the original enzyme PedH. The specific enzyme activities of the original enzyme PedH on ethanol, methanol and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural were 0.433U/mg, 0.088U/mg and 0.053U/mg, respectively.

The T m value was determined using a protein stability analyzer (Prometheus NT.Plex). The measurement results are shown in Figure 3. It can be seen that there is no obvious difference in the dissolution temperature T m value between the mutant Q207N and the wild-type PedH, but the stability of the mutant H486Y and the combined mutant Q207N/H486Y is improved, and the dissolution temperature T m values are increased by 2.3°C and 2.2°C respectively compared with the wild-type PedH (63.7°C).
