Abstract
A novel prolyl endopeptidase from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, SmPEP, was discovered and characterized. The specific activity of the recombinant SmPEP expressed by Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), was 68.3 U/mg at pH 8.0 and 37 °C. In order to improve the substrate specificity for long-chain peptide, rational design was applied based on the structure constructed by homology modeling. Inter-domain sites within the β-propeller domain were chosen for the mutation to weaken the inter-domain interaction and form an open conformation for long-chain substrate entering into the active site. The substrate specificity on a designed long-chain substrate, PQPQLPYPQPQLP, of the mutants F263A and E184 G increased 8.77 and 5.75 times respectively versus wild-type. After the saturated mutation of the both sites, the reactive rate of mutant F263 V on 13-mer peptide was 10.2 times higher than that of the wild-type. Then the mutant F263 V was used in the hydrolysis of casein, and the ACE inhibitory activity of the hydrolysate was significantly improved compared with wild type enzyme, which verified the efficiency of the design strategy.
