Carbonic Anhydrase 2(L203K)-C-LCTASR

We constructed this new biobrick by connecting the C-terminal of the mutant human carbonic anhydrase 2 [CA2(L203K)] (BBa_K2547004) with the six-residue sulfatase submotif (LCTPSR). Formylglycine generating enzyme can selectively recognize and oxidize the cysteine residues in the sulfatase subunit of the protein terminal to form formylglycine (FGly) residues containing aldehyde groups, which can be immobilized via forming covalent bond with amino functionalized support (Unisil 30-100 NH2) through the Schiff base reaction.

In order to further improve the industrial application of CA2 for CO2 capture, basing on the existing part we designed last year, we have constructed a new biobrick[CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR] by connecting the C-terminal of the mutant human carbonic anhydrase 2 [CA2(L203K)](BBa_K2547004) coding sequences with the six-residue sulfatase submotif(LCTPSR) in a way similar to that of CA2(L203K)-N-LCTPSR, to achieve enzyme immobilization and maintain high thermal stability and CA2 reuse by modifying its gene sequence.

1.1 Construction of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR expression plasmid

The coding sequence of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR was synthesized, and then cloned into pET-30a(+) expression vector (Fig.1).

1.2 Expression and purification of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein in E.coli TB1

The expression of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR in E.coli TB1 were detected by SDS-PAGE. The results showed that CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR could be successfully expressed in our chassis E.coli TB1.(Fig.4)

We successfully co-transformed pBAD-FGE and pET-30a(+)-CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR expression vectpr into E.coli TB1 for the following CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR immobilization. Then the improve part of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein was further purified through nickel column and detected by SDS-PAGE, as shown in Fig.5.

2. Identification of the function for CO2 capture

2.1 The efficiency of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein immobilization

FGE can selectively identify and oxidize cysteine residues in the sulfatase subunit (LCTPSR) at the end of the protein to form aldehyde-containing formylglycine, which can be used for enzyme immobilization. Then we immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein, and our formula for calculating the enzyme immobilized efficiency is as follows:

η: The efficiency of immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein;
W1: The concentration of total CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein;
W2: The concentration of free CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein.

According to the formula, we got the efficiency of immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein is 39.09%.

2.2 Enzyme activity asssay of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein

To further demonstrate the activity of our improved part, the enzyme activity of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR and CA2(L203K) protein of CO2 capture were tested experimentally by esterase activity assay at 37℃ and 50℃.

As shown in Fig.6 and Fig.7, immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein was stable at high temperature and retained its activity, and free CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein has a higher activity than CA2(L203K) protein.

3. Application model for detecting CO2 capture

Because the immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein have higher activity than immobilized CA2(L203K)-N-LCTPSR protein, so the reuse ability of the immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR was tested by our designed simulation model (Fig.8). Compared with the original enzyme, the immobilized enzyme still retained 54 percent activity after five times of repeated absorption experiments of CO2, as indicated in Fig.9. The result showed that the immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR could absorb CO2 under the simulation model and showed potential reuse ability.

4. Conclusion

Our results demonstrated that the function of CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR part has been improved with higher activity than original part, especially achieved enzyme immobilization, and the immobilized CA2(L203K)-C-LCTPSR protein showed reuse ability, which might be suitable for industrial production.
