Upscale production of a recombinant cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase from Paenibacillus macerans in Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT: Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) is an important enzyme with multiple functions in starch utilization. In the present study, a fermentation process for the production of CGTase from Escherichia coli harboring the recombinant plasmid pET28b(+)-CGTase was investigated and optimized. The optimal fermentation and expression conditions were 10.0 g/L glycerol, 20.0 g/L tryptone, and 10.0 g/L yeast extract with an initial pH of 7.0, an IPTG concentration of 0.1 mM and an induction temperature of 28 °C for 10 h. The resulting CGTase activity reached up to 36.4 U/L and was 2.1-fold higher than before optimization. Under these optimal fermentation conditions, the up-scaled fermentation was carried out in a 500-L fermentor, and a CGTase activity of 45.2 U/L was achieved. This study provides a foundation for the industrial production of CGTase.

Project description:BackgroundRecombinant protein-based therapeutics have become indispensable for the treatment of many diseases. They are produced using well-established expression systems based on bacteria, yeast, insect and mammalian cells. The majority of therapeutic proteins are glycoproteins and therefore the post-translational attachment of sugar residues is required. The development of an engineered Escherichia coli-based expression system for production of human glycoproteins could potentially lead to increased yields, as well as significant decreases in processing time and costs.ResultsThis work describes the expression of functional human-derived glycosyltransferase UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (GalNAcT2) in a recombinant E. coli strain. For expression, a codon-optimised gene encoding amino acids 52-571 of GalNAcT2 lacking the transmembrane N-terminal domain was inserted into a pET-23 derived vector encoding a polyhistidine-tag which was translationally fused to the N-terminus of the glycosyltransferase (HisDapGalNAcT2). The glycosyltransferase was produced in E. coli using a recently published expression system. Soluble HisDapGalNAcT2 produced in SHuffle® T7 host cells was purified using nickel affinity chromatography and was subsequently analysed by size exclusion chromatography coupled to multi-angle light scattering (SEC-MALS) and circular dichroism spectroscopy to determine molecular mass, folding state and thermal transitions of the protein. The activity of purified HisDapGalNAcT2 was monitored using a colorimetric assay based on the release of phosphate during transfer of glycosyl residues to a model acceptor peptide or, alternatively, to the granulocyte-colony stimulating growth factor (G-CSF). Modifications were assessed by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time-of-flight Mass Spectrometry analysis (MALDI-TOF-MS) and Electrospray Mass Spectrometry analysis (ESI-MS). The results clearly indicate the glycosylation of the acceptor peptide and of G-CSF.ConclusionIn the present work, we isolated a human-derived glycosyltransferase by expressing soluble HisDapGalNAcT2 in E. coli. The functional activity of the enzyme was shown in vitro. Further investigations are needed to assess the potential of in vivo glycosylation in E. coli.
