Popis | Two haloalkane dehalogenases, LinBUT and LinBMI, each with 296 amino acid (aa) residues, exhibit only seven amino acid residue differences between them, but LinBMI‘s catalytic performance towards beta-hexachlorocyclohexane (beta-HCH) is considerably higher than LinBUT‘s. To elucidate the molecular basis governing this difference, intermediate mutants between LinBUT and LinBMI were constructed and kinetically characterized. The activities of LinBUT-based mutants gradually increased by cumulative mutations into LinBUT, and the effects of the individual amino acid substitutions depended on combination with other mutations. These results indicated that LinBUT‘s b-HCH degradation activity can be enhanced in a stepwise manner by the accumulation of point mutations. |
