Burkholderia cepacia strain KY, which can utilize a herbicide 2,4-D as a sole carbon and energy source, catalyzes the hydrolytic dehalogenation of both D- and L-2-haloalkanoic acids. We have cloned the gene encoding DL-2-haloacid dehalogenase, and obtained a recombinant plasmid (pUCDEXL) containing approximately 4.5 kbp insert. In both of B. cepacia strain KY and this clone E. coli JM109/pUCDEXL, DL-2-haloacid dehalogenase was induced significantly with monohalogenated acetic acids, such as chloroacetate, bromoacetate and iodoacetate. This dehalogenase was also overexpressed in E. coli using three different promoters. In pET vector systems with T7 lac promoter, a large amount of dehalogenase was selectively expressed, but some parts of the protein were accumulated in the form of inclusion bodies. This problem was overcome to carry on growth and induction at 22°C, and at the same time, the maximum specific activity of dehalogenase was reached at 12.6 U/mg, 500-fold higher activity than in wild strain, B. cepacia strain KY grown with 2,4-D.

<p>Endo-β-1,4-D-xylanase is a hydrolytic enzyme that breakdown the 1.4 chain of xylan polysaccharide. We have succes to transform the plasmid pET-Endo gene encoding endo-1,4-β-D-xylanase from Bacillus sp. originally from termites abdominal to E. coli BL21. The clone was ready for large scale of enzyme production. To reduce production cost, we look for subtitute media for the expensive Luria Berthani broth. Chicken guts broth is good alternative while rich of protein and very cheap. The content of N dissolved chicken guts broth reaches 87 % of LB broth. Growth of E. Coli BL21 in Chicken guts broth and LB broth (as control) was observed by Optical Density (OD) using spectrofotometer. Concentration of glucose added in broth and incubation temperature was varied. The result showed that optimal growth was in addition of 1.5 % glucose and incubated at  37 <sup>o</sup>C for 16 h. This optimal condition was used to grow E. coli BL21 pET-Endo for xylanase production. Enzyme purification was done by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. Highest protein yield was 0.076 mg/mL obtained in 100 mM imidazole elucidation. The activity and specific activity of xylanase were estimated as 0.042 U/mL and 0.556 U/µg, respectively. The purification factor was 3.16 time and the molecular weight of enzyme was ± 30, 000 Dalton</p>

Organohalogen Compounds

Organohalogen compounds, widely used as pesticides in agriculture and solvents in the industrial sector, cause environmental pollution and health problems due to their toxicity and persistence. Numerous studies have been conducted on the biodegradation of organohalogen compounds, with many focusing on the use of dehalogenase from bacteria. Haloacid dehalogenase is a group of enzymes that cleaves the carbon-halogen bond in halogenated aliphatic acids. In a previous study, the bcfd1 gene encoded haloacid dehalogenase from Bacillus cereus IndB1 was successfully isolated and characterized. This research aimed to create an expression system of the bcfd1 gene by subcloning this gene into pET expression vector and to overexpress the gene in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). In addition, the recombinant protein was characterized to gain a better understanding of the catalytic action of this enzyme. A high expression of bcfd1 was obtained by inducing the culture at OD550 0.8–1.0  using 0.01 mM IPTG as determined by SDS-PAGE. Zymogram analysis proved that the recombinant protein possessed dehalogenase activity. Bcfd1 activity toward monochloroacetic acid (MCA) showed specific activity of 37 U/mg at 30°C, pH 9. The predicted tertiary structure of Bcfd1 was estimated has conserved α/ß hydrolase folding motif for haloacid dehalogenase superfamily.

ABSTRACT l-(−)-Azetidine-2-carboxylate (AC) is a toxic, natural product analog of l-proline. This study revealed the genes and biochemical strategy employed by Pseudomonas sp. strain A2C to detoxify and assimilate AC as its sole nitrogen source. The gene region from Pseudomonas sp. strain A2C required for detoxification was cloned into Escherichia coli and sequenced. The 7.0-kb region contained eight identifiable genes. Four encoded putative transporters or permeases for γ-amino acids or drugs. Another gene encoded a homolog of 2-haloacid dehalogenase (HAD). The encoded protein, denoted l-azetidine-2-carboxylate hydrolase (AC hydrolase), was highly overexpressed by subcloning. The AC hydrolase was shown to catalyze azetidine ring opening with the production of 2-hydroxy-4-aminobutyrate. AC hydrolase was further demonstrated to be a new hydrolytic member of the HAD superfamily by showing loss of activity upon changing aspartate-12, the conserved active site nucleophile in this family, to an alanine residue. The presence of a gene encoding a potential export chaperone protein, CsaA, adjacent to the AC hydrolase gene suggested that AC hydrolase might be found inside the periplasm in the native Pseudomonas strain. Periplasmic and cytoplasmic cell fractions from Pseudomonas sp. strain A2C were prepared. A higher specific activity for AC hydrolysis was found in the periplasmic fraction. Protein mass spectrometry further identified AC hydrolase and known periplasmic marker proteins in the periplasmic fraction. A model was proposed in which AC is hydrolyzed in the periplasm and the product of that reaction is transported into and further metabolized in the cytoplasm.

1, 3-propanediol (1, 3-PD) is biologically synthesized by glycerol dehydratase (GDHt) and 1, 3-propanediol dehydrogenase (PDOR). In present study, the gldABC gene, encoding GDHt from Klebsiella pneumoniae and the yqhD gene, encoding PDOR isoenzyme from E.coli BL21 were cloned and co-expressed in E.coli JM109 using plasmid pSE380. The over-expressed recombinant enzymes were purified by nickel-chelate chromatography combined with gel filtration to study the properties. Optimal temperature and pH of recombinant GDHt with specific activity of 85.8 U/mg were 45 °C and 9.0; and optimal temperature and pH of recombinant YqhD with specific activity of 80.0 U/mg were 37 °C, 7.0. The microbial conversion of 1,3-PD from glycerol by this recombinant E. coli strain was studied and the production of 1,3-PD was about 28.0 g/l.

ABSTRACT A gene was cloned from Burkholderia cepacia DBO1 that is homologous with Escherichia coli cysH encoding 3′-phosphoadenylylsulfate (PAPS) reductase. The B. cepaciagene is the most recent addition to a growing list of cysHhomologs from a diverse group of sulfate-assimilating bacteria whose products show greater homology to plant 5′-adenylylsulfate (APS) reductase than they do to E. coli CysH. The evidence reported here shows that the cysH from one of the species,Pseudomonas aeruginosa, encodes APS reductase. It is able to complement an E. coli cysH mutant and a cysCmutant, indicating that the enzyme is able to bypass PAPS, synthesized by the cysC product. Insertional knockout mutation ofP. aeruginosa cysH produced cysteine auxotrophy, indicating its role in sulfate assimilation. Purified P. aeruginosaCysH expressed as a His-tagged recombinant protein is able to reduce APS, but not PAPS. The enzyme has a specific activity of 5.8 μmol · min−1 · mg of protein−1 at pH 8.5 and 30°C with thioredoxin supplied as an electron donor. APS reductase activity was detected in several bacterial species from which the novel type of cysH has been cloned, indicating that this enzyme may be widespread. Although an APS reductase from dissimilatory sulfate-reducing bacteria is known, it shows no structural or sequence homology with the assimilatory-type APS reductase reported here. The results suggest that the dissimilatory and assimilatory APS reductases evolved convergently.

ABSTRACT Vector systems allowing autonomous or site-specific integrative gene cloning were developed for Micromonospora sp. strain 40027, a producer of the antibiotic fortimicin A. The autonomous system depends on the discovery of a low-copy-number, self-transmissible covalently closed circular plasmid, pJTU112 (ca. 14.1 kb), which was shown to be present in the progenitor strain in both integrated and autonomous states. The copy numbers of both wild-type pJTU112 and three derivatives of it can be amplified at least sixfold by addition of streptomycin to the culture medium. The integrative system was developed by the use of a pBR322-derived Escherichia coli plasmid vector, pSET152, mediated by the attP site of the Streptomyces phage ΦC31. Both vectors can be transferred by conjugation from E. coli into Micromonospora sp. strain 40027. The heterologous cloning and expression of the dnd gene cluster originating from Streptomyces lividans 1326 into Micromonospora sp. strain 40027 demonstrated the use of the two systems.

Ethanol produced from hexose and pentose sugars hydrolysated by lignocellulose is an environment-friendly alternative to fossil fuels. Xylose isomerase is the major rate-limiting enzyme in the ethanol synthesis biologically pathway of xylose fermentation. In present study, xylA gene encoding xylose isomerase was cloned from Thermus thermophilus and overexpressed in E. coli BL21. Purified recombinant enzyme was used to study the enzymatic characterization. Specific activity of recombinant PDOR was 19.6 U/mg. Optimal temperature and pH were 80 °C, 8.0, respectively. Km and Vmax values were 15.9 mM, 22.8 U/mg. This research may form a basis for the future application of xylose isomerase.

LTB is the B subunit of heat labile toxins (LT) in Escherichia coli ETEC. This subunit is non-toxic but has a high immune response. Therefore, LTB is considered a suitable antigen for partial vaccine against the diarrhea caused by E. coli ETEC. The most important component of partial vaccine is antigen protein. Nowadays, with the advancement of recombinant protein technology, these antigens are mainly produced by the common bacterial expression system as E. coli. However, the recombinant proteins produced by E. coli are often miscellaneous with enterotoxins, which should be removed from pharmaceutical products. Thus, the production of antigen proteins in other expression system without endotoxins like Bacillus subtilis is in attention. We conducted the experiments of cloning and expressing LTB using a novel pHT plasmid that allow the protein to be expressed in both of E. coli and B. subtilis. We were successful to generate plasmid pHT326 and express the gene encoding for the fusion protein of LTB and LysSN-6xHis-TEV in B. subtilis and E. coli. The binding of fusion protein on the columns that have affinity with His-tag was confirmed. This result is about to be applied for the development of partial vaccine aganst the diarrhea as well as the development of some diagnostic kits for ETEC in food or medical waste and kits to detect antibodies against LTB in animals.

G-CSF is a cytokine that stimulates the proliferation, differentiation, function of mature neutrophils and is generally used for treatment of neutropenia in cancer patients under chemotherapy. In this study, we report results on the cloning and expression of hG-CSF being fused with the heavy-chain (FTN-H) of human ferritin, which had been showed to be capable of facilitate the folding of several human protein expressed in E. coli. The hg-csf gene and gene encoding FTN-H were inserted into plasmid pET28a to form expression vector PET-FHG. 6xHis tag and TEV sequence (being recognized and cleaved by TEV protease) was added between of G-CSF and FTN-H to facilitate G-CSF purification and recovery afterwards. PET-FHG was transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). The expression of hG-CSF was induced by IPTG and confirmed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot using anti-hG-CSF antibody.
