his-hutH

Histidine ammonia-lyase with a his-tag is involved in catalyzing the reaction of  changing L-histidine into trans-urocanate. Use Histidine ammonia-lyase to change L-histidine into trans-urocanate. And  his-tag is used to purify the protein.

Biology

HutH exists in various microorganisms in nature that could catalyze L-histidine to trans-urocanate (Fig. 1). In our project, the gene of HutH from Pseudomonas putida was expressed in chassis bacteria to produce histidine ammonia-lyase (HutH). After that, the product of trans-urocanate was further converted to glutamic acid.
HutH is found in the livers of vertebrates and bacteria, such as E. coli, Salmonella and pseudomonas, which is specific to L-histidine and can be inhibited by D-histidine or imidazole.

Usage

His-tag (6×His) is expressed at the N end of HutH for protein purification. A strong promoter (BBa_J23100) and HutH parts (RBS-HutH-Terminator) were connected to the pET-28a(+) vector by the standard assembly, which was further transformed into E. coli DH5α. After being selected by kanamycin and verified by colony PCR and sequencing, the positive colony with corrected plasmid was obtained.

Characterization

1. Agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE)

When we were building this circuit, regular PCR was used to certify that the plasmid was correct. Target bands (1877 bp) can be observed at the position around 2000 bp (Fig. 2).

2. SDS-PAGE

The plasmid verified by sequencing was successfully transformed into Vibrio natriegens. After being cultivated and induced by ITPG, GE AKTA Prime Plus FPLC System was employed to get purified protein from broken supernatant. Purified protein was verified by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-12% (wt/vol) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and Coomassie blue staining. As shown in SDS-PAGE of HutH-his (Fig. 3), the target protein (55.7 kDa) could be observed at the position around 50 kDa on the purified protein lanes (FR), but not in the negative control groups (NC).

3. Enzyme kinetic constants measurement

The absorbance of L-histidine was measured at 277 nm (ε = 18000 (mol · L-1)-1 · cm-1) to obtain the data of concentration, which was used to calculate the kinetic constants of Km and kcat (Fig. 4 and Table 1)
