pLAC4-KmarxMFα-NpaBGS-t-tTDH1

The composite part contains a pLac4 promoter[1], Kluyveromyces marxianus mating factor alpha[2], beta-glucosidase NpaBGS fused with type I dockerin[3] and tTDH1 terminator[4]. NpaBGS is a cellulase active on oligosaccharides(short polysaccharides) and cellobiose(disaccharide) that cleaves glycosidic bonds. The Kluyveromyces marxianus mating factor alpha is fused in order to enable secretion of NpaBGS by host K.marxianus.


Usage and Biology

Kluyveromyces marxianus mating factor alpha fused with NpaBGS would lead the polypeptide of NpaBGS-t through ER and Golgi apparatus and be secreted. NpaBGS is a β-glucosidase containing two glycosyl hydrolase Family 3 domains at N and C terminals .It was discovered from the buffalo rumen fungus Neocallimastix patriciarum W5. It’s activity could be enhanced at 50°C by adding Mg2+ or Mn2+ ions.


Characterization

Cellulases and cellulase boosters expression

The enzymatic digestion of the polysaccharide chains of cellulose was completed by exoglucanase, endoglucanase and 1-4 betaglucosidase, and this series of reactions are catalysed by LPMO and CDH. We constructed expression vectors for yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus with the unique origin of replication and antibiotic selection marker for the culturing of Kluyveromyces marxianus. Expression vectors were made distinct by the insertion of different sequences coding for the ligated form of the cellulase enzymes, LPMO and CDH. The enzymes were ligated with an alpha-mating factor secretion signal for Kluyveromyces marxianus at the N-terminus and a type I dockerin domain at the C-terminus (Fig.2A).The successful production and secretion of the protein NpaBGS, MtCDH and TrEGIII are examined by SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis (Fig.2D).

Cellulosome construction

We assembled the cellulose-like complex on the surface of E.coli by adding primary scaffold proteins, cellulases and cellulase boosters onto E.coli expressing secondary scaffold proteins. The mixture was centrifuged and resuspended in tris-HCl. The mixture underwent centrifugation and resuspension using tris-HCl, and cellulose was added to the mixture. After 24h, the mixture was filtered and tested for glucose by Benedict's test. From the result, we determined that the cellulosome-like complexes are able to degrade cellulose at a higher efficiency than cell-free cellulases mixture (Fig.3A and 3B). The overall success in engineering our project was verified by the successful construction of cellulosome complex and degrading cellulose to reducing sugars.
