Whole-cell biocatalysts could be used in wide-ranging applications. In this study, a new kind of whole-cell biocatalyst was successfully constructed by genetically immobilizing soybean seed coat peroxidase (SBP) on the cell surface of Yarrowia lipolytica Polh, using a new integrative surface display expression vector (pMIZY05). The coding sequence of SBP was optimized and chemically synthesized, then inserted into pMIZY05 to generate expression plasmid pMIZY05-oEp. A DNA fragment corresponding to SBP and selection marker expression cassettes, without bacterial sequences, was released from pMIZY05-oEp by enzyme digestion and used to transform host yeast cells. A transformant (CM11) with a high recombinant SBP activity of 1571.9 U/mL was obtained, and recombinant SBP was proved to be successfully anchored on cell surface by testing the activities of different cellular fractions. After optimization of culture conditions, the recombinant SBP activity of CM11 was increased to 4187.8 U/mL. Afterwards, biochemical properties of the recombinant SBP were determined: optimum catalytic conditions were 37.5 degrees C at pH 3.5, and recombinant SBP exhibited high stability during thermal or acidic treatment. Recombinant activity of cell-displayed SBP was re-examined at optimum temperature and pH, which promoted an increase up to 4432.5 U/mL. To our knowledge, this represents the highest activity ever reported for heterologous expression of SBP. This study also provides a useful strategy for heterologous expression of proteins which could be toxic to intracellular content of host cells. |
