Levan is a functional fructooligosaccharide that belongs to the class of fructans and displays a range of physiological and dietary benefits. Levansucrase, classified as a fructosyltransferase, catalyzes the synthesis of levan fructans through the transfer of d-fructosyl residues from sucrose. Recombinant levansucrase exhibits a significantly high level of expression and activity in E. coli, however, its industrial applicability is limited due to its relatively poor thermal stability. In this study, we generated six single mutants by targeting either the high flexibility regions (242-250) or the 382Glu residue within the -TEAP- motif, and further developed two double mutants featuring concurrent mutations encompassing both regions. We expressed multiple levansucrase mutant proteins in E. coli DH5α using site-directed mutagenesis and measured the enzymatic activity and thermal stability of each mutant by levan formation reactions. The E246Y mutant displayed half-time 5.02-fold and 1.89-fold higher at 55℃ and 56℃, respectively, when compared to the WT, whereas the E382L mutant exhibited a 1.06-fold enhancement in half-time at 55℃. Furthermore, E246Y/E382L exhibited 1.95-fold and 1.86-fold higher thermal stability at 55℃ and 56℃, respectively. These findings suggest the potential for the developed thermally stable levansucrases to be applied in industrial settings, highlighting the effectiveness of our targeted mutagenesis approach.
Abstract
Levan is a functional fructooligosaccharide that belongs to the class of fructans and displays a range of physiological and dietary benefits. Levansucrase, classified as a fructosyltransferase, catalyzes the synthesis of levan fructans through the transfer of d-fructosyl residues from sucrose. Recombinant levansucrase exhibits a significantly high level of expression and activity in E. coli, however, its industrial applicability is limited due to its relatively poor thermal stability. In this study, we generated six single mutants by targeting either the high flexibility regions (242-250) or the 382Glu residue within the -TEAP- motif, and further developed two double mutants featuring concurrent mutations encompassing both regions. We expressed multiple levansucrase mutant proteins in E. coli DH5α using site-directed mutagenesis and measured the enzymatic activity and thermal stability of each mutant by levan formation reactions. The E246Y mutant displayed half-time 5.02-fold and 1.89-fold higher at 55℃ and 56℃, respectively, when compared to the WT, whereas the E382L mutant exhibited a 1.06-fold enhancement in half-time at 55℃. Furthermore, E246Y/E382L exhibited 1.95-fold and 1.86-fold higher thermal stability at 55℃ and 56℃, respectively. These findings suggest the potential for the developed thermally stable levansucrases to be applied in industrial settings, highlighting the effectiveness of our targeted mutagenesis approach.
