Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a P450 enzyme mutant, a fusion protein and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] Organosulfur compounds are important components and structural skeletons of many natural metabolites, drugs and functional materials. Traditional chemical methods, such as cross-coupling reactions involving transition metals, usually face the challenges of harsh reaction conditions, low catalytic efficiency and poor sustainability when synthesizing C-S bonds. In contrast, the bioenzymatic method can greenly synthesize compounds containing C-S bonds under mild conditions. As a "golden catalyst", cytochrome P450 enzyme has the advantages of broad substrate spectrum and diverse catalytic functions, and has been widely studied and applied in many fields such as drug synthesis and fine chemical production.
[0003] The electron transfer system is required in the process of P450 enzyme catalysis, and it is divided into Class I-X according to the electron transfer system. Among them, for example: Class I consists of three parts: heme, ferredoxin containing iron-sulfur clusters, and ferredoxin reductase containing FAD, and the typical representative is CYP101A1; Class II consists of two parts: Heme and cytochrome P450 enzyme reductase containing FAD / FMN; Class VII is a single-component catalytic system that is a natural fusion of Heme and a reducing partner protein containing FMN / Fe2S2, such as P450RhF. Since Narhi and Fulco identified the P450 BM3 self-sufficient catalytic system in 1986, P450 enzyme fusion proteins have been widely studied and applied. Protein fusion engineering can not only improve the catalytic efficiency of P450 enzymes, but also may improve the stability of proteins. Researchers usually fuse the heme domain and the reductase domain of P450 enzymes to obtain artificial self-sufficient P450 enzymes.
[0004] In recent years, research on key P450 enzymes in the synthesis pathway of sulfur-containing compounds has made some progress, such as glaucocyanin, phytoalexin and innovomycin. Among them, P450 TleB enzyme can catalyze the formation of C-S bond within (S)-N-((S)-1-hydroxy-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propan-2-yl)-2-mercapto-3-methylbutanamide molecules, thereby obtaining two sulfur-containing indole lactam derivatives. However, there are still few P450 enzymes reported that can catalyze the synthesis of C-S bonds. In addition, the natural TleB enzyme has a mixture problem when catalyzing (S)-N-((S)-1-hydroxy-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propan-2-yl)-2-mercapto-3-methylbutanamide to generate products, which makes it difficult to specifically synthesize high-purity sulfur-containing indole lactam derivatives by enzymatic method. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, it is necessary to develop new P450 enzymes or their mutants with high product specificity. This will help to further analyze the molecular mechanism of P450 TleB enzyme selectively catalyzing the formation of CS bonds and provide new ideas and methods for the synthesis of sulfur-containing compounds.

[0049] In the present invention, the terms "CYP116B46" or "CYP116B46 reductase domain" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably herein, and both refer to the reductase domain of CYP116B46 with an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO:6, such as TleB-CYP116B46 is a fusion protein formed by TleB and the reductase domain of CYP116B46, CYP107E49-CYP116B46 is a fusion protein formed by CYP107E49 and the reductase domain of CYP116B46, and the like.
[0050] Using bioinformatics methods, sequence retrieval was performed in the NCBI database, and four P450 enzymes were analyzed and mined, namely CYP107E49, CYP107E50, CYP107E51, and CYP107E52. These four P450 enzymes were derived from Kitasatospora humi, Streptomyces clavuligerus, Streptomyces alkaliphilus, and Streptomyces luteoverticillatus (their publication numbers in NCBI are WP_230051513.1, WP_065757225.1, WP_182604341.1, and WP_126913049.1, respectively), and their amino acid sequences are SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO: 3, SEQ ID NO: 4, and SEQ ID As shown in NO:5, the sequence identities with TleB are 83.59%, 84.09%, 81.66% and 79.34% respectively, with only about 100 amino acids not being exactly the same. The 40 amino acids within are basically the same. According to the naming committee of P450 enzymes, TleB and four P450 enzymes belong to the CYP107E family, and TleB is named CYP107E48.
[0051] The four P450 enzymes CYP107E49, CYP107E50, CYP107E51, and CYP107E52 can also catalyze the substrate (S)-N-((S)-1-hydroxy-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propan-2-yl)-2-mercapto-3-methylbutanamide to generate carbon-sulfur heterocyclic products P1 and P2. Among them, CYP107E49 catalyzes the production of P1 and P2 in a ratio of 67% and 33%, CYP107E50 catalyzes the production of P1 and P2 in a ratio of 69% and 31%, CYP107E51 catalyzes the production of P1 and P2 in a ratio of 65% and 35%, and CYP107E52 catalyzes the production of P1 and P2 in a ratio of 67% and 33%.
[0052] In order to improve the catalytic activity of TleB and enhance the product selection specificity, the inventors first obtained the three-dimensional structure of TleB through the PDB database (PDB: 6J83), and then used Yasara to molecularly dock the TleB structure with the substrate molecule, determined the hotspot amino acids around the active pocket and some amino acid sites that may interact, and through rational analysis and semi-rational design, used the means of directed evolution to perform site-directed mutagenesis and saturation mutagenesis on these amino acids to construct a mutant library, and finally screened out mutants TleB DPM, TleB TPM1 and TleB TPM2, wherein the 282nd amino acid of the mutant TleB DPM mutated to leucine, and the 387th amino acid mutated to leucine; the 282nd amino acid of the mutant TleB TPM1 mutated to leucine, the 387th amino acid mutated to leucine, and the 234th amino acid mutated to phenylalanine; the 282nd amino acid of the mutant TleB TPM2 mutated to leucine, the 387th amino acid mutated to leucine, and the 234th amino acid mutated to histidine. The mutants TleB DPM, TleB TPM1 and TleB TPM2 can significantly increase the yield of product P2, and the selectivity for product P2 is 74%, 90% and 77%, respectively.
[0053] When TleB and its mutants catalyze the above reaction, additional reductase (ferredoxin (Fdx) containing an iron-sulfur cluster and ferredoxin reductase (Fdr) containing FAD) needs to be added. In order to achieve self-sufficiency in the catalytic reaction, the inventors prepared a fusion protein combining the above mutants with the reductase domain of CYP116B46, wherein the amino acid sequence of the reductase domain of CYP116B46 is shown in SEQ ID NO:5. Specifically, the inventors performed protein fusion on the basis of the original wild-type TleB, used T5 exonuclease for Gibson assembly, and connected the reductase domain of CYP116B46 (CYP116B46) to the C-terminus of TleB to obtain TleB-CYP116B46. In this way, electrons are directly transferred to the active center of TleB through CYP116B46, making TleB-CYP116B46 self-sufficient without the need to add reductase to participate in the reaction, and at the same time facilitating protein purification and mutant library screening.
[0054] In one or more embodiments, when the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein is used for substrate catalysis, NADP is added to the reaction system. + , glucose and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH);
[0055] In another or more embodiments, when the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein is used for substrate catalysis, NADPH is added to the reaction system;
[0056] In a preferred embodiment, a reducing agent such as TCEP may be added to the reaction system to avoid oxidation of the substrate.
[0057] Compared with the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein, when the P450 enzyme mutant is used for substrate catalysis, it is necessary to additionally add ferredoxin (Fdx) containing an iron-sulfur cluster and ferredoxin reductase (Fdr) containing FAD.
[0058] Preferably, the catalytic reaction temperature is 25°C.
[0059] The mutation sites of the fusion protein are consistent with the mutation of TleB. The amino acid at position 282 of the fusion protein TleB-CYP116B46 mutates to leucine, and the amino acid at position 387 mutates to leucine to form the mutant TleB DPM-CYP116B46. The amino acid at position 282 of the fusion protein TleB-CYP116B46 mutates to leucine, the amino acid at position 387 mutates to leucine, and the amino acid at position 234 mutates to phenylalanine to form the mutant TleB TPM1-CYP116B46. The amino acid at position 282 of the fusion protein TleB-CYP116B46 mutates to leucine, the amino acid at position 387 mutates to leucine, and the amino acid at position 234 mutates to histidine to form the mutant TleB TPM2-CYP116B46. All of them can significantly increase the yield of the product P2, and the selectivity for the product P2 is 77%, 95% and 81%, respectively.
[0060] At the same time, the inventors used AlphaFold to construct 3D models of four P450 enzymes CYP107E49, CYP107E50, CYP107E51, and CYP107E52, and compared them with the sequence and spatial structure of TleB, respectively, to find out the sites of the four enzymes corresponding to the key sites I234, I282, and Q387 of TleB, and then performed site-directed mutagenesis, and finally obtained the mutants CYP107E49 DPM (mutation sites: I286L, I391L), CYP107E49 TPM1 (mutation sites: I238F, I286L, I391L), CYP107E49TPM2 (mutation sites: I238H, I286L, I391L), CYP107E50 DPM (mutation sites: I290L, Q395L), CYP107E50 TPM1 (mutation site: I242F, I290L, Q395L), CYP107E50 TPM2 (mutation site: I242H, I290L, Q395L), CYP107E51 DPM (mutation site: I282L, I387L), CYP107E51 TPM1 (mutation site: I234F, I282L, I387L), CYP107E51 TPM2 (mutation site: I234H, I282L, I387L), CYP107E52DPM (mutation site: I286L, I391L), CYP107E52 TPM1 (mutation sites: I238F, I286L, I391L), CYP107E52TPM2 (mutation sites: I238H, I286L, I391L), the mutants obtained can significantly increase the yield of product P2.

[0062] Similarly, the inventors combined the mutants CYP107E49 DPM, CYP107E49 TPM1, CYP107E49 TPM2, CYP107E50 DPM, CYP107E50 TPM1, CYP107E50TPM2, CYP107E51 DPM, CYP107E51 TPM1, CYP107E51 TPM2, CYP107E52 DPMM, CYP107E52 TPM1, and CYP107E52 TPM2 with the reducing domain of CYP116B46, respectively, to prepare fusion proteins CYP107E49DPM-CYP116B46, CYP107E49 TPM1-CYP116B46, CYP107E49TPM2-CYP116B46, and CYP107E50 DPM-CYP116B46, CYP107E50TPM1-CYP116B46, CYP107E50 TPM2-CYP116B46, CYP107E51DPM-CYP116B46, CYP107E51 TPM1-CYP116B46, CYP107E51TPM2-CYP116B46, CYP107E52 DPM-CYP116B46, CYP107E52TPM1-CYP116B46 and CYP107E52 TPM2-CYP116B46, the obtained P450 enzyme mutant fusion proteins can significantly increase the yield of product P2.

Generally speaking, the following steps are involved: (1) transforming or transducing suitable host cells with the polynucleotide of the P450 enzyme mutant or P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein of the present invention or a recombinant expression vector containing the polynucleotide; (2) culturing the host cells in a suitable culture medium; (3) isolating and purifying the protein from the culture medium or cells.
[0069] In the present invention, the polynucleotide sequence of the P450 enzyme mutant or the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein can be inserted into a recombinant expression vector. As long as it can be stably replicated in the host, any plasmid and vector can be used. An important feature of the expression vector is that it usually contains a replication origin, a promoter, a marker gene and a translation control element. Methods well known to those skilled in the art can be used to construct an expression vector containing a P450 enzyme mutant or a P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein encoding DNA sequence and a suitable transcription / translation control signal. The DNA sequence can be effectively connected to an appropriate promoter of the expression vector to guide mRNA synthesis. The expression vector also includes a ribosome binding site and a transcription terminator for translation initiation. The expression vector preferably contains one or more selectable marker genes to provide phenotypic traits for selecting transformed host cells.
[0070] The vector containing the above-mentioned appropriate DNA sequence and an appropriate promoter or control sequence can be used to transform appropriate host cells to enable them to express proteins.
[0071] In the present invention, the host cell can be any microorganism suitable for expressing P450 enzymes or P450 enzyme mutants or P450 enzyme mutant fusion proteins, including bacteria and fungi, preferably Escherichia coli (E. coli), Corynebacterium glutamicum, Bacillus subtilis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, Aspergillus oryzae, more preferably Escherichia coli. In one or more of the following embodiments, Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) is used.
[0072] In the present invention, a polynucleotide sequence (coding sequence) encoding a P450 enzyme mutant or a P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein can also be applied to the present invention, wherein the coding sequences of TleB, CYP107E49, CYP107E50, CYP107E51, CYP107E52 and CYP116B46 reductase domains are shown in SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:10, SEQ ID NO:11 and SEQ ID NO:12, respectively, and the coding sequence of the P450 enzyme mutant or the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein can also be a degenerate variant of the polynucleotide sequence provided by the present invention, and the degenerate variant refers to a nucleic acid sequence that encodes the P450 enzyme mutant or the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein in the present invention, but is different from the nucleotide sequence in the examples of the present invention.
[0073] It is well known that the expression results of the same nucleotide sequence in different microbial hosts are often very different. In order to optimally express P450 enzymes or their mutants in Escherichia coli, which is the most commonly used in genetic engineering, the expression genes of these enzymes can be codon optimized.
[0074] Codon optimization is a kind of technology that can be used for maximizing protein expression in organism by increasing the translation efficiency of gene of interest.Different organisms usually show the special preference for one of some codons of the same amino acid of coding due to mutation tendency and natural selection.For example, in fast-growing microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, the composition of its genome tRNA library separately is reflected by optimizing codon.Therefore, in fast-growing microorganisms, the low-frequency codon of amino acid can be replaced with codons for the same amino acid but with high frequency.Therefore, the expression of optimized DNA sequence is improved in fast-growing microorganisms.
[0075] Those skilled in the art will appreciate how to select appropriate vectors, promoters, enhancers and host cells. The recombinant cells (host cells) established by the present invention can be cultured using conventional methods to express the polypeptide encoded by the gene of the present invention. Depending on the host cell used, the culture medium used in the culture can be selected from various conventional culture media. Culture is carried out under conditions suitable for the growth of the host cells. After the host cells grow to an appropriate cell density, the promoter selected is induced using a suitable method (such as temperature conversion or chemical induction), and the cells are cultured for a period of time.
[0076] During expression, the P450 enzyme mutant or P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein of the present invention can be expressed in cells and secreted outside the cells. If necessary, the recombinant protein can be separated and purified by various separation methods using its physical, chemical and other properties. These methods are well known to those skilled in the art. Examples of these methods include but are not limited to: conventional renaturation treatment, treatment with protein precipitants (salting out method), centrifugation, osmotic breaking, ultrasonic treatment, high-speed centrifugation, molecular sieve chromatography (gel filtration), adsorption chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and other various liquid chromatography techniques and combinations of these methods.

[0078] The substrate is When the P450 enzyme mutant and the P450 mutant fusion protein of the present invention can improve the selectivity of the catalytic production of the product P2, and can be used for selectively catalyzing the synthesis of the product P2, the structural formula of P2 is:
[0079] It should be understood that host cells expressing P450 enzyme mutants or P450 enzyme mutant fusion proteins or their expression products (such as cleavage products or secretion products) also have this use.

[0082] In a preferred embodiment, a reducing agent such as TCEP may be added to the reaction system to avoid oxidation of the substrate.
[0083] Compared with the P450 enzyme mutant fusion protein, when the P450 enzyme mutant is used for substrate catalysis, it is necessary to additionally add ferredoxin (Fdx) containing an iron-sulfur cluster and ferredoxin reductase (Fdr) containing FAD.

Sambrook et al., Science Press, and the specific experimental conditions can be determined by simple experiments when necessary.
