Abstract
GDSL-type esterases are promising biocatalysts for the food and pharmaceutical industries. Here, a GDSL-type esterase from Aspergillus niger CCTCC No. M2012538 (INANE1) was expressed and purified in Pichia pastoris GS115, and its catalytic performances were evaluated, including the synthesis of cinnamyl acetate and deacetyl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid (D-7-ACA). In addition, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations analyzed INANE1's substrate specificity. The substrate specificity profile indicated the recombinant esterase (rINANE1) was an acetylesterase with high specificity for p-nitrophenyl acetate (p-NPA). The rINANE1 exhibited maximum activity at pH 8.0 and 35 °C, where Km and Vmax were calculated as 0.13±0.03 mM and 22.56 ± 0.32 μmoL/min/mg, respectively. The yield of cinnamyl acetate of about 85 % was achieved in 24 h. The conversion rate of 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA) could reach 92.71 ± 1.78 % at 25 °C and 2.5 h. Moreover, the INANE1 structure model, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation demonstrated that the pocket of the catalytic triad Ser34, Asn267, and His270 could only accommodate p-NPA. INANE1 may be the first fungi esterase with cinnamyl acetate synthetic activity and 7-ACA hydrolysis activity. Therefore, INANE1 would be a promising enzyme with industrial values.
期刊介绍:
Enzyme and Microbial Technology is an international, peer-reviewed journal publishing original research and reviews, of biotechnological significance and novelty, on basic and applied aspects of the science and technology of processes involving the use of enzymes, micro-organisms, animal cells and plant cells.
We especially encourage submissions on:
Biocatalysis and the use of Directed Evolution in Synthetic Biology and Biotechnology
Biotechnological Production of New Bioactive Molecules, Biomaterials, Biopharmaceuticals, and Biofuels
New Imaging Techniques and Biosensors, especially as applicable to Healthcare and Systems Biology
New Biotechnological Approaches in Genomics, Proteomics and Metabolomics
Metabolic Engineering, Biomolecular Engineering and Nanobiotechnology
Manuscripts which report isolation, purification, immobilization or utilization of organisms or enzymes which are already well-described in the literature are not suitable for publication in EMT, unless their primary purpose is to report significant new findings or approaches which are of broad biotechnological importance. Similarly, manuscripts which report optimization studies on well-established processes are inappropriate. EMT does not accept papers dealing with mathematical modeling unless they report significant, new experimental data.
