Abstract:
To develop a high efficiency Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) yeast display system, we linked two CALB genes fused with Sacchromyces cerevisiae cell wall protein genes, the Sed1 and the 3'-terminal half of Sag1, separately by a 2A peptide of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) in a single open reading frame. The CALB copy number of recombinant strain KCSe2ACSa that harbored the ORF was identified, and the quantity of CALB displayed on the cell surface and the enzyme activity of the strain were measured. The results showed that the fusion of multiple genes linked by 2A peptide was translated into two independent proteins displayed on the cell surface of stain KCSe2ACSa. Judging from the data of immunolabeling assay, stain KCSe2ACSa displayed 94 % CALB-Sed1p compared with stain KCSe1 that harbored a single copy CALB-Sed1 and 64 % CALB-Sag1p compared with stain KCSa that harbored a single copy CALB-Sag1 on its surface. Besides, strain KCSe2ACSa possessed 170 % hydrolytic activity and 155 % synthetic activity compared with strain KCSe1 as well as 144 % hydrolytic activity and 121 % synthetic activity compared with strain KCSa. Strain KCSe2ACSa even owned 124 % hydrolytic activity compared with strain KCSe2 that harbored two copies CALB-Sed1. The heterogeneous glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins co-displaying yeast system mediated by FMDV 2A peptide was shown to be an effective method for improving the efficiency of enzyme-displaying yeast biocatalysts.
