The genes rfbK and rfbM from the rfb cluster (O-antigen biosynthesis) of Salmonella enterica, group B, encoding for the enzymes phosphomannomutase (EC 5.4.2.8) and GDP-alpha-D-mannose pyrophosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.13) were overexpressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3) with specific activities of 0.1 U/mg and 0.3-0.6 U/mg, respectively. Both enzymes were partially purified to give specific activities of 0.26 U/mg and 2.75 U/mg, respectively. Kinetic characterization of the homodimeric (108 kDa) GDP-alpha-D-mannose pyrophosphorylase revealed a K(m) for GTP and mannose-1-P of 0.2 mM and 0.01 mM with substrate surplus inhibition constants (Kis) of 10.9 mM and 0.7 mM, respectively. The product GDP-alpha-D-mannose gave a competitive inhibition with respect to GTP (Ki 14.7 microM) and an uncompetitive inhibition with respect to mannose-1-P (Ki 115 microM). Both recombinant enzymes were used for repetitive batch synthesis of GDP-alpha-D-mannose staring from D-mannose and GTP. In three subsequent batches 581 mg (960 mumol) GDP-alpha-D-mannose was synthesized with 80% average yield. The overall yield after product isolation was 22.9% (329 mumol, 199 mg).
来自肠炎沙门氏菌B组rfb簇(O抗原生物合成)的rfbK和rfbM基因,编码磷酸甘露糖变位酶(EC 5.4.2.8)和GDP-α-D-甘露糖焦磷酸化酶(EC 2.7.7.13),在大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)中过表达,比活性分别为0.1 U/mg和0.3 - 0.6 U/mg。两种酶都经过部分纯化,比活性分别达到0.26 U/mg和2.75 U/mg。对同二聚体(108 kDa)的GDP-α-D-甘露糖焦磷酸化酶的动力学特性进行表征,结果显示其对GTP和甘露糖-1-P的K(m)分别为0.2 mM和0.01 mM,底物过剩抑制常数(Kis)分别为10.9 mM和0.7 mM。产物GDP-α-D-甘露糖对GTP表现出竞争性抑制(Ki 14.7 microM),对甘露糖-1-P表现出非竞争性抑制(Ki 115 microM)。两种重组酶都用于从D-甘露糖和GTP重复分批合成GDP-α-D-甘露糖。在随后的三批反应中,合成了581 mg(960 μmol)的GDP-α-D-甘露糖,平均产率为80%。产物分离后的总产率为22.9%(329 μmol,199 mg)。
