Bst with point mutations for enhanced thermal stability codon optimized for E.coli

This part is an improvement from Bst Polymerase I (large fragment) for E.coli from the 2021 iGEM Fudan team: https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K3790000.

Usage and Biology

Bst polymerase Large Fragment is a family I DNA polymerase derived from the thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus stearothermophilus. Bst polymerase Large Fragment is notable for its strong strand displacement activity and thermal stability [1]. Bst also contains a 5' to 3' DNA polymerase activity but lacks 3' to 5' exonuclease activity [2]. These unique features allow Bst polymerase to facilitate isothermal amplification techniques such as LAMP and rt-LAMP.

Bst polymerase large fragment is structurally homologous to KlenTaq polymerase (large fragment of Taq polymerase used in PCR) [3] and Klenow fragment (large fragment of DNA polymerase I in E. coli) [4].

Enhanced Thermal stability

The origional codon optimized Bst polymerase (Part BBa_K3790000) was improved upon to further enhance the polymerases thermal stability such that it can carry out LAMP at a higher reaction temperature. Three point mutations were made in the polymerase thumb domain: K549W, K582L and Q584L. The increased thermal stability from these point mutations was validated using a protien simulation program called YASARA. The overall change in Gibbs free energy of wild-type Bst was calculated to be -150.13 kcal/mol, and the overall stability of the mutated Bst was calculated to be -151.81 kcal/mol thus indicative of a more thermally stable protein.

Thermal stability of mutated Bst polymerase computed from YASARA.
