Manganese peroxidase (MnP) is the key enzyme in our degrading system. In order to improve its catalyzing ability, we tried rational design. And according to the computational redesign results, 6 mutants were chosen and tested, including their relative enzyme activity and the effect of temperature/pH/organic solvents on them. MnP(E74L) is the fifth promising mutant of MnP, possessing lower energy after mutation and would probably has a better stability.

===Usage and Biology===
+
Manganese peroxidase (MnP), a glycosylated heme enzyme derived from the white-rot fungus <i>Phanerochaete chrysosporium</i>, can oxidize Mn<sup>2+</sup> to Mn<sup>3+</sup> under the action of H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>. Mn<sup>3+</sup> can be released outside the enzyme under the action of a chelate such as malonic acid and can oxidise a wide range of phenolic and non-phenolic compounds as a common substrate. The Mn<sup>3+</sup>-malonic acid chelate can be detected at 469 nm by oxidation of 2,6-dimethyloxyphenol (2,6-DMP), which is also the main enzyme activity detection method for MnP. MnP (E74L) is obtained by mutating the glutamate at position 74 of wild-type MnP (<partinfo>BBa_K3853000</partinfo>) to leucine.

<p>MnP activity of MnP (E74L) was measured by monitoring the oxidation of 2,6-dimethyloxyphenol (2,6-DMP) at 469 nm<sup>[1]</sup>. H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> concentration were determined using ε<sub>240</sub> = 43.6 M<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-1</sup>.The reaction mixtures contained 0.4 mM MnSO<sub>4</sub>, 50 mM sodium malonate (pH 4.5), and 1 mM 2, 6-DMP. For a 96-well plate, 140 μl of the above reaction mixtures and 20 μl enzyme solution were mixed uniformly in advance and then 40 μl 0.1 mM H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> were added to initiate reaction. The concentration of 2, 6-DMP's oxidation products, 2, 2', 6, 6'-tetramethoxydibenzo-1, 1'-diquinone, were determined using ε<sub>469</sub> = 49.6 mM<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-1</sup>. One unit (U) of MnP activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to convert 1 μM 2, 6-DMP to 2, 2', 6, 6'-tetramethoxydibenzo-1, 1'-diquinone in 1 minute.</p>

<p>As shown in <b>Fig. 3A</b>, the absorbance of the reaction system with MnP (E74L) continued to rise within 1 min, while the absorbance of the control group (without enzyme) did not change.

MnP(E74L)

Manganese peroxidase (MnP) is the key enzyme in our degrading system. In order to improve its catalyzing ability, we tried rational design. And according to the computational redesign results, 6 mutants were chosen and tested, including their relative enzyme activity and the effect of temperature/pH/organic solvents on them. MnP(E74L) is one of the most promising mutant of MnP. We use BBa_K3853060 to construct the expression system to express and purify the protein.

Biology

Manganese peroxidase (MnP), a glycosylated heme enzyme derived from the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, can oxidize Mn2+ to Mn3+ under the action of H2O2. Mn3+ can be released outside the enzyme under the action of a chelate such as malonic acid and can oxidise a wide range of phenolic and non-phenolic compounds as a common substrate. The Mn3+-malonic acid chelate can be detected at 469 nm by oxidation of 2,6-dimethyloxyphenol (2,6-DMP), which is also the main enzyme activity detection method for MnP. MnP (E74L) is obtained by mutating the glutamate at position 74 of wild-type MnP (BBa_K3853000) to leucine.

Usage

We mutated the glutamate at position 74 of wild-type MnP to leucine through single-point mutation in order to improve the stability of wild-type MnP. We use BBa_K3853060 to construct the expression system to express and purify the protein.

Characterization

1. Identification

After receiving the synthetic plasmid, we electrotransformed it into Pichia pastoris, and selected monoclonal colonies for colony PCR to verify the successful transformation.

2. Proof of the expression

After the expressed protein was re-dissolved by ammonium sulfate precipitation, it was verified by running gel, and the target protein band was observed by SDS-PAGE (Fig. 2).

3. Enzyme Activity

MnP activity of MnP (E74L) was measured by monitoring the oxidation of 2,6-dimethyloxyphenol (2,6-DMP) at 469 nm[1]. H2O2 concentration were determined using ε240 = 43.6 M-1 cm-1.The reaction mixtures contained 0.4 mM MnSO4, 50 mM sodium malonate (pH 4.5), and 1 mM 2, 6-DMP. For a 96-well plate, 140 μl of the above reaction mixtures and 20 μl enzyme solution were mixed uniformly in advance and then 40 μl 0.1 mM H2O2 were added to initiate reaction. The concentration of 2, 6-DMP's oxidation products, 2, 2', 6, 6'-tetramethoxydibenzo-1, 1'-diquinone, were determined using ε469 = 49.6 mM-1 cm-1. One unit (U) of MnP activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to convert 1 μM 2, 6-DMP to 2, 2', 6, 6'-tetramethoxydibenzo-1, 1'-diquinone in 1 minute.

As shown in Fig. 3A, the absorbance of the reaction system with MnP (E74L) continued to rise within 1 min, while the absorbance of the control group (without enzyme) did not change. Through UV-visible spectrum of the reaction system after 1 min, the characteristic absorption at 469 nm was observed (Fig. 3B).

4. Thermostability

To evaluate thermal stability, the purified MnP (E74L) were incubated in 20 mM sodium malonate buffer (pH 5.5) with 100 mM NaCl at different temperatures for 6 h (Fig. 4) and the residual enzyme activity were measured and calculated every 2 h. The relative enzyme activity under different temperatures were calculated with the following equation:

As shown in Fig. 4, relative enzyme activity of MnP (E74L) under different incubation temperatures displayed distinct characteristics. When the temperature exceeded 50℃, a sharp decline of enzyme activity within 2 h could be observed, but it gradually stabilized in the following 4 hours.

Fig. 4 Thermal stability of MnP (E74L). The initial MnP activity before incubation was set as 100%.

Compared to the MnP without any mutation, MnP (E74L) exhibited significantly higher stability at room temperature after 6 h incubation (Fig. 5).

5. pH stability

To evaluate pH stability, the purified MnP (E74L) were incubated in 20 mM sodium malonate buffer with 100 mM NaCl under pH 3-7 for 12 h at room temperature. The relative enzyme activity at different pH conditions were calculated with the following equation:

Compared to the MnP without any mutation, MnP (E74L) exhibited poorer performance at pH = 3 (Fig. 6), which may caused by the decrease in the number of hydrogen bonds after mutating the glutamate at position 74 to leucine, as the former formed more hydrogen bonds with surrounding amino acid residues (Fig. 7).

Fig. 6 Effect of pH on the stability of MnP (E74L) and MnP after 12 h incubation. The initial MnP activity before incubation was set as 100%. Mutant 7# refers to MnP (E74L). *P < 0.05, **P <0.01.

The dashed line indicates the hydrogen bond formed by glutamate at position 74 and the surrounding amino acid residues. For glutamate, the red dashed line indicates the hydrogen bond acceptor, while the blue dashed line indicates the hydrogen bond donor. Green ball indicates Ca2+ and purple ball indicates Mn2+.
