Abstract
This study presents an exhaustive characterization of the enzymatic attributes and structural properties of trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase (TPP) derived from Fusarium graminearum. Enzyme activity was evaluated through a meticulously designed enzymatic assay. The findings indicate that the molecular weight of the enzyme is approximately 99.8 kDa, with an optimal reaction temperature and pH of 40 °C and 6.5, respectively. Magnesium ions (Mg2+) markedly enhance the enzymatic activity, resulting in a specific activity of 1.795 U/μg. Kinetic analysis revealed a Km value of 0.96 μmol/L and a Vmax of 15.79 μmol/L/min. Subsequent computational analysis elucidated the three-dimensional architecture of the enzyme and identified the binding site for the substrate trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P). T6P was found to form hydrogen bonds with TPP at residues Lys754, Arg720, His665, Glu758, and Asn756. Additionally, hydrophobic interactions were observed between T6P and residues Phe802, Ile610, Asp801, Pro752, and Gly753. The binding energy calculated for the T6P-TPP complex stood at −5.7 kcal/mol.
期刊介绍:
Protein Expression and Purification is an international journal providing a forum for the dissemination of new information on protein expression, extraction, purification, characterization, and/or applications using conventional biochemical and/or modern molecular biological approaches and methods, which are of broad interest to the field. The journal does not typically publish repetitive examples of protein expression and purification involving standard, well-established, methods. However, exceptions might include studies on important and/or difficult to express and/or purify proteins and/or studies that include extensive protein characterization, which provide new, previously unpublished information.
