High-Level Expression of Aspergillus ficuum Acetyl Xylan Esterase Gene in Pichia pastoris,

Pichia pastoris에서 Aspergillus ficuum 유래 Acetyl Xylan Esterase 유전자의 과발현

  • Published : 2002.12.01

Abstract

Acetyl xylan esterase gene (AXE) from Aspergillus ficuum was cloned and its Pichia expression plasmid, pPICZ$\alpha$C-AXE (4.6 kb), was constructed, in which the AXE gene was under the control of the AOXI promoter and connected downstream of mating factor u-1 signal sequence. The plasmid linearized by Sacl was integrated into the 5'AOXI region of the chromosomal DNA of P. pastoris. In the flask batch culture of P. pastoris transformant on methanol medium, the cell concentration and total AXEase activity reached at 6.0 g-dry cell weight/1 and 77 unit/ml after 36 h cultivation, respectively. In the fed-batch culture employing the optimized methanol and histidine feeding strategy, the cell concentration and total AXEase activity were significantly increased to about 97 g-dry cell weight/1 and 930 unit/ml. Most of AXEase activity (>90%) was found in the extracellular medium and the majority of extracellular protein (>80%) was AXEase enzyme (33.5 kDa). This result means that about 9.8 g/1 of AXEase protein was produced in the extracellular medium.

Aspergillus ficuum 유래 acetyl xylan esterase(AXEase) 유전자(AXE)를 Pichia pastoris에서 과발현ㆍ분비 생산하기 위해 AOXI promoter와 mating factor $\alpha$-1 분비신호서열 하류에 AXE를 연결한 염색체 삽입 발현계(pPICZ$\alpha$C-AXE, 4.6 kb)를 구축하였다. 이것을 SacI으로 절단한 뒤 P. pastoris의 염색체 DNA 5'AOX1 부위에 삽입시켰다. 형질전환된 P. pastoris 균주를 메탄을 배지에서 플라스크 회분배양한 결과, 배양 36시간 때의 건조균체농도는 6 g-DCW/1, AXEase 총 발현량은 77 unit/ml이었다. 최적화된 methanol과 histidine 공급방법을 채용한 유가배양시 균체농도는 97 g-DCW/1, AXEase 총발현량은 930 unit/m1로 크게 증가하였다. 효소활성의 90% 이상은 배양 상등액에 존재하였으며, 상등액 단백질의 80%이상이 AXEase 단백질(33.5 kDa)였다. 이러한 결과는 9.8 g/l의 AXEase 단백질을 배양 상등액으로 대량 분비ㆍ생산할 수 있음을 의미한다.
