Embodiment 1

[0014] Example 1 Expression and purification of wild Bacillus pumilus CotA laccase.

[0015] The recombinant expression strain CotA / pColdII / BL21 (DE3) constructed from glycerol tube inoculation earlier stage was cultivated overnight in LB liquid medium (containing 100mg / L ampicillin), and the seeds were inserted into LB liquid fermentation medium (containing 100mg / L ampicillin) by 2% inoculum. 100mg / L ampicillin). After culturing Escherichia coli at 37°C for 2 hours, add 0.3mM IPTG at a final concentration for induction, and continue fermentation and culture in a shaker at 15°C for 24 hours, then centrifuge the fermentation broth at 4°C and 8000rpm for 10 minutes to remove the supernatant and collect the bacteria. The collected cells were resuspended in phosphate buffer, and after resuspension, the cells were crushed with an ultrasonic cell disruptor to release intracellular proteins. After the crushing was completed, the crushed liquid was centrifuged at 4°C and 8000 rpm for ...

Embodiment 2

[0017] Example 2 CotA laccase mutant construction and preparation

[0018] (1) Site-directed mutation

[0019] Using the previously constructed recombinant plasmid pColdII-CotA containing the B. pumilus CotA laccase gene as a template, the 386th position of leucine (Leu) in the laccase was mutated into tryptophan (Trp), which was named L386W.

[0020] The site-directed mutagenesis primers for introducing the L386W mutation are:

[0021] Forward primer 5'-TATGGGCGCCCTATTT GG TTACTAGATAAC-3' (the underline is the mutation site)

[0022] reverse primer 5'- CC AAATAGGGCGCCCATATTTATCTTGTGT-3' (underline is the mutation site)

[0023] Using the above primers, the recombinant plasmid pColdII-CotA was used as a template to carry out PCR reaction. All reactions were carried out in a 50 μL system, and the reaction conditions were: 95°C pre-denaturation for 3 minutes, followed by 25 cycles (95°C for 20 s, 57°C for 20 s, 72°C for 6 min), after the cycle, 72°C extension for 7 minute...

Embodiment 3

[0026] Example 3 Enzyme activity analysis of CotA laccase mutants.

[0027] (1) Definition of enzyme activity unit

[0028] When using the ABTS method to measure the enzyme activity of laccase, the amount of enzyme required to convert 1 μmol of substrate per minute is defined as an activity unit.

[0029] (2) Enzyme Activity Determination Steps

[0030] Preheating: Take 2.4mL pH4.0 citrate buffer solution in a test tube, add 0.5mL ABTS solution (the final concentration of ABTS is 0.5mM) into the test tube and place it in a 37°C water bath to preheat for 2min.

[0031] Reaction: Add 0.1mL sample enzyme solution and shake evenly.

[0032] Measurement: Use a spectrophotometer to measure the kinetics of the uniformly oscillating sample, measure the change in OD value per second within 30s at a wavelength of 420nm (the reaction rate is a uniform reaction) and calculate the enzyme activity.

Abstract

The invention discloses a bacillus pumilus CotA laccase mutant capable of improving the substrate specificity, and belongs to the field of genetic engineering and enzyme engineering. A pColdII-CotA recombinant plasmid constructed in the earlier stage of a laboratory is used as a template, the 386th Leu in a wild type CotA laccase amino acid sequence is mutated into Trp, and then the wild type CotA laccase is used as a contrast. It is found that the mutant L386W has the higher specificity on a substrate of 2,2-azino-bi(3-ethyl-benzothiazole-6-sulfonic acid)ABTS, and the industrial application prospect of the bacillus pumilus CotA laccase is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bacillus pumilus CotA laccase mutant with improved substrate specificity, which belongs to the fields of genetic engineering and enzyme engineering. Background technique [0002] Laccase (laccase, E.C.1.10.3.2) is a copper-containing polyphenol oxidase, which can catalyze the redox reaction of phenolic substances, and plays an important role in the biodegradation of lignin and its precursor analogs. Laccase has a wide range of oxidation substrates, including phenols and their derivatives, aromatic amines and their derivatives, aromatic carboxylic acids and their derivatives, etc., so the application potential of laccase is huge. In the field of wood processing, laccase can replace chemical adhesives, which can not only improve product quality, but also reduce the harm to human health and environmental pollution; in the paper industry, laccase is used for paper biological bleaching and pulping, which can Reducing pollution in...
