Tóm tắt

Each of four conserved glutamate residues of Bacillus stearothermophilus leucine aminopeptidase II (BsLAPII) was replaced with aspartate, lysine, and leucine respectively by site-directed mutagenesis. The over-expressed wild-type and mutant enzymes were purified to homogeneity by nickel-chelate chromatography and the molecular mass of the subunit was determined to be 44.5 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The specific activity for the Glu-316 and Glu-340 mutants was completely abolished, while Glu-249 mutants showed comparable activity to that of the wild-type BsLAPII. Compared with the wild-type enzyme, the E250D and E250L mutant enzymes retained less than 18% of the enzyme activity and exhibited a dramatic decrease in the value of k cat/K m. These observations indicate that Glu-250, Glu-316, and Glu-340 residues are critical for the catalytic activity of BsLAPII.
