Improved conversion of ginsenoside Rb1 to compound K by semi-rational design of Sulfolobus solfataricus ?-glycosidase.

ABSTRACT: Ginsenoside compound K has been used as a key nutritional and cosmetic component because of its anti-fatigue and skin anti-aging effects. ?-Glycosidase from Sulfolobus solfataricus (SS-BGL) is known as the most efficient enzyme for compound K production. The hydrolytic pathway from ginsenoside Rb1 to compound K via Rd and F2 is the most important because Rb1 is the most abundant component in ginseng extract. However, the enzymatic conversion of ginsenoside Rd to F2 is a limiting step in the hydrolytic pathway because of the relatively low activity for Rd. A V209 residue obtained from error-prone PCR was related to Rd-hydrolyzing activity, and a docking pose showing an interaction with Val209 was selected from numerous docking poses. W361F was obtained by rational design using the docking pose that exhibited 4.2-fold higher activity, 3.7-fold higher catalytic efficiency, and 3.1-fold lower binding energy for Rd than the wild-type enzyme, indicating that W361F compensated for the limiting step. W361F completely converted Rb1 to compound K with a productivity of 843 mg l-1 h-1 in 80 min, and showed also 7.4-fold higher activity for the flavanone, hesperidin, than the wild-type enzyme. Therefore, the W361F variant SS-BGL can be useful for hydrolysis of other glycosides as well as compound K production from Rb1, and semi-rational design is a useful tool for enhancing hydrolytic activity of ?-glycosidase.

Project description:The local and global dynamics of the Sulfolobus solfataricus beta-glycosidase were studied by electron spin resonance and time-resolved fluorescence techniques. For electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) investigations, the protein was covalently modified by the maleimido nitroxide spin label, which is specific for cysteine -SH groups, at position 344 and at position 101, where Ser-101 was changed into a cysteine by site-directed mutagenesis. The greater reactivity of exposed Cys-101 suggested the exclusive modification of this amino acid compared with Cys-344. The labeled proteins underwent temperature perturbation in the range 290-335 K and the values of the spin-label rotation correlation frequencies (nu(c)) ranged from 6 x 10(7) to 2 x 10(8) sec(-1) for the protein labeled at position C344 and from 5.62 x 10(7) to 1.10 x 10(8) sec(-1) for the protein labeled at C101. These rotation correlation values are related to the local dynamic characteristics of the protein matrix. The temperature dependence of rotation correlation frequencies expressed in terms of Arrhenius coordinates (log (nu(c)) vs. 1/T) for the protein labeled at C344 exhibited a linear dependence but with a change in the slope at 311 K. For the protein labeled at C101, no change in the slope was observed at the same temperature. General dynamic information was deduced from the analysis of the fluorescence emission decay of the tryptophanyl residues that are present in each region of the protein structure. Fluorescence data analysis highlighted a bimodal distribution of fluorescence lifetimes arising from the contribution of two emitting groups: one consisting of closely clustered tryptophans responsible for the long-lived emission component (7.1 nsec) and the other composed of tryptophans nearer to the protein surface, which can be associated to the short-lived component (2.5 nsec). The temperature dependence of lifetime distribution parameters linked to the long-lived and short-lived components, expressed in Arrhenius coordinates, showed two different points in which the change in the slope occurred (i.e., 328 K and 338 K, respectively). The Arrhenius analysis of data provided the activation energy relative to the conformational changes characterizing the local and global movements running through the protein matrix.
