Active-site characterization of Candida boidinii formate dehydrogenase.
NAD+-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH) from Candida boidinii was cloned and expressed to a high level in Escherichia coli (20% of soluble E. coli protein). Molecular modelling studies were used to create a three-dimensional model of C. boidinii FDH, based on a known structure of the Pseudomonas sp. 101 enzyme. This model was used for investigating the catalytic mechanism by site-directed mu...
متن کاملSite Saturation Mutagenesis Applications on Candida methylica Formate Dehydrogenase
In NADH regeneration, Candida methylica formate dehydrogenase (cmFDH) is a highly significant enzyme in pharmaceutical industry. In this work, site saturation mutagenesis (SSM) which is a combination of both rational design and directed evolution approaches is applied to alter the coenzyme specificity of NAD+-dependent cmFDH from NAD+ to NADP+ and increase its thermostability. For this aim, two...
متن کاملFast enzyme dynamics at the active site of formate dehydrogenase.
The role of femtosecond-picosecond structural dynamics of proteins in enzyme-catalyzed reactions is a hotly debated topic. We report infrared photon echo measurement of the formate dehydrogenase-NAD+-azide ternary complex. In contrast to earlier studies of protein dynamics, the data show complete spectral diffusion on the femtosecond-picosecond time scale with no static heterogeneity. This resu...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of Formate Dehydrogenase
Anaylobacter aguaticus strain KNK607M, which had high NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH) activity, was newly isolated. The enzyme, purified to homogeneity, was a dimer composed of identical subunits with a molecular mass of 44 kDa. The specific activity was 9.5 ulmg, and the enzyme was optimum at pH 6.3 and 500C, most stabte at pH 7.0, and stable at 50"C or lovver. The apparent K. yalues...
متن کاملWhole-cell bioreduction of aromatic α-keto esters using Candida tenuis xylose reductase and Candida boidinii formate dehydrogenase co-expressed in Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND Whole cell-catalyzed biotransformation is a clear process option for the production of chiral alcohols via enantioselective reduction of precursor ketones. A wide variety of synthetically useful reductases are expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli to a high level of activity. Therefore, this microbe has become a prime system for carrying out whole-cell bioreductions at differe...
