Modular Assembly of Phosphite Dehydrogenase and Phenylacetone Monooxygenase for Tuning Cofactor Regeneration.

ABSTRACT: The use of multienzyme complexes can facilitate biocatalytic cascade reactions by employing fusion enzymes or protein tags. In this study, we explored the use of recently developed peptide tags that promote complex formation of the targeted proteins: the dimerization-docking and anchoring domain (RIDD-RIAD) system. These peptides allow self-assembly based on specific protein-protein interactions between both peptides and allow tuning of the ratio of the targeted enzymes as the RIAD peptide binds to two RIDD peptides. Each of these tags were added to the C-terminus of a NADPH-dependent Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase (phenylacetone monooxygenase, PAMO) and a NADPH-regenerating enzyme (phosphite dehydrogenase, PTDH). Several RIDD/RIAD-tagged PAMO and PTDH variants were successfully overproduced in E. coli and subsequently purified. Complementary tagged enzymes were mixed and analyzed for their oligomeric state, stability, and activity. Complexes were formed in the case of some specific combinations (PAMO_RIAD-PTDH_RIDD and PAMO_RIAD/RIAD-PTDH_RIDD). These enzyme complexes displayed similar catalytic activity when compared with the PTDH-PAMO fusion enzyme. The thermostability of PAMO in these complexes was retained while PTDH displayed somewhat lower thermostability. Evaluation of the biocatalytic performance by conducting conversions revealed that with a self-assembled PAMO-PTDH complex less PTDH was required for the same performance when compared with the PTDH-PAMO fusion enzyme.

Project description:BackgroundThe large-scale biocatalytic application of oxidoreductases requires systems for a cost-effective and efficient regeneration of redox cofactors. These represent the major bottleneck for industrial bioproduction and an important cost factor. In this work, co-expression of the genes of invertase and a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase from Burkholderia xenovorans to E. coli W ΔcscR and E. coli BL21 (DE3) enabled efficient biotransformation of cyclohexanone to the polymer precursor, ε-caprolactone using sucrose as electron source for regeneration of redox cofactors, at rates comparable to glucose. E. coli W ΔcscR has a native csc regulon enabling sucrose utilization and is deregulated via deletion of the repressor gene (cscR), thus enabling sucrose uptake even at concentrations below 6 mM (2 g L-1). On the other hand, E. coli BL21 (DE3), which is widely used as an expression host does not contain a csc regulon.ResultsHerein, we show a proof of concept where the co-expression of invertase for both E. coli hosts was sufficient for efficient sucrose utilization to sustain cofactor regeneration in the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone. Using E. coli W ΔcscR, a specific activity of 37 U gDCW-1 was obtained, demonstrating the suitability of the strain for recombinant gene co-expression and subsequent whole-cell biotransformation. In addition, the same co-expression cassette was transferred and investigated with E. coli BL21 (DE3), which showed a specific activity of 17 U gDCW- 1. Finally, biotransformation using photosynthetically-derived sucrose from Synechocystis S02 with E. coli W ΔcscR expressing BVMO showed complete conversion of cyclohexanone after 3 h, especially with the strain expressing the invertase gene in the periplasm.ConclusionsResults show that sucrose can be an alternative electron source to drive whole-cell biotransformations in recombinant E. coli strains opening novel strategies for sustainable chemical production.
