Why a benign mutation kills enzyme activity. Structure-based analysis of the A176V mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae L-asparaginase I

Bonthron D. T. , Jaskolski M.

nr 3

A conservative and apparently harmless AI76V mutation in intracellular S. cerevisiae L-asparaginase (ScerAI) completely abolishes the enzyme activity. Sequence and structural comparisons with type II bacterial L-asparaginases show that the mutated residue is in a very conservative region and plays a vital role in the cohesion of functional tetramers of these enzymes through participation in side-chain...main-chain (Ser) Oy...O (Ala) hydrogen bonds across the tetramer interface. The fact that bacterial L-asparaginases of type I show less conservation in this region suggests that they may have different quaternary structure while adopting the subunit fold and intimate dimer architecture of type II enzymes. A comparison of all available sequences of microbial L- asparaginases confirms that separate intra- and extra-cellular enzymes evolved in prokaryotes and eukaryotes independently. However, an analysis of the available complete genome sequences reveals a surprising fact that Haemophilus influenzae possesses only a type II asparaginase while the archaebacterium Methanococcus jannaschii has a type I gene, but not a type II.

nr 3

Marine actinomycetes were isolated from sediment samples collected from Pitchavaram mangrove ecosystem situated along the southeast coast of India. Maximum actinomycete population was noted in rhizosphere region. About 38% of the isolates produced L-asparaginase. One potential strain KUA106 produced higher level of enzyme using tryptone glucose yeast extract medium. Based on the studied phenotypic characteristics, strain KUA106 was identified as Streptomyces parvulus KUA106. The optimization method that combines the Plackett-Burman design, a factorial design and the response surface method, which were used to optimize the medium for the production of L-asparaginase by Streptomycetes parvulus. Four medium factors were screened from eleven medium factors by Plackett-Burman design experiments and subsequent optimization process to find out the optimum values of the selected parameters using central composite design was performed. Asparagine, tryptone, d))extrose and NaCl components were found to be the best medium for the L-asparaginase production. The combined optimization method described here is the effective method for screening medium factors as well as determining their optimum level for the production of L-asparaginase by Streptomycetes parvulus KUAP106.
