Characterization and functional cloning of an aromatic nitrilase from Pseudomonas putida CGMCC3830 with high conversion efficiency toward cyanopyridine
چکیده انگلیسی


• First report on cloning of an aromatic nitrilase from Pseudomonas genus.
• Pseudomonas putida nitrilase is distinguished from other Pseudomonas nitrilases.
• The nitrilase showed outstanding catalytic activity toward cyanopyridine.

Nitrilases have long been considered as an attractive alternative to chemical catalyst in carboxylic acids biosynthesis due to their green characteristics and the catalytic potential in nitrile hydrolysis. A novel nitrilase from Pseudomonas putida CGMCC3830 was purified to homogeneity. pI value was estimated to be 5.2 through two-dimensional electrophoresis. The amino acid sequence of NH2 terminus was determined. Nitrilase gene was cloned through CODEHOP PCR, Degenerate PCR and TAIL-PCR. The open reading frame consisted of 1113 bp encoding a protein of 370 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequence showed the highest identity (61.6%) to nitrilase from Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1. The enzyme was highly specific toward aromatic nitriles such as 3-cyanopyridine, 4-cyanopyridine, and 2-chloro-4-cyanopyridine. It was classified as aromatic nitrilase. The nitrilase activity could reach up to 71.8 U/mg with 3-cyanopyridine as substrate, which was a prominent level among identified cyanopyridine converting enzymes. The kinetic parameters Km and Vmax for 3-cyanopyridine were 27.9 mM and 84.0 U/mg, respectively. These data would warrant it as a novel and potential candidate for creating effective nitrilases in catalytic applications of carboxylic acids synthesis through further protein engineering.
