Abstract

Candida Antarctica lipase A (CalA) has been used because of its suitability in industrial applications. CalA has unique features capable to accept tertiary and sterically hindered alcohols among many hydrolases. CalA gene was cloned and constructed in expression vector such as pColdIII/CalA and $pPICZ{\alpha}A$/CalA. The gene encoding pColdIII/CalA was functionally expressed in the cytoplasm of Escherichia coli $Origami^{TM}$ B (DE3) cells. The plasmid $pPICZ{\alpha}A$/CalA linearized by BstX I was integrated into 5'AOX1 region of the chromosomal DNA and was functionally expressed in the methyl atrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. Expressed CalA in P. pastoris (0.7 Unit/mL) showed 35 times higher activity than that in E. coli expression system (0.02 Unit/mL).

본 연구에서는 Candida antarctica로부터 genomic DNA을 추출하여 lipase A(CalA) 유전자를 PCR 증폭하였고, 재조합 pColdIII/CalA, $pPICZ{\alpha}A$/CalA, $pPICZ{\alpha}A$/CalA$his{\times}6$을 구축하였다. 재조합 CalA 유전자의 기능적 발현을 위해 최적화된 시스템을 구축하고자 Escherichia coli와 Pichia pastoris 시스템에서 각각 수행하여 비교, 분석하였다. SDS PAGE gel을 통해 CalA의 발현의 여부 및 발현양을 확인하였고, pNPP를 기질로 한 가수분해 반응을 통해 활성을 측정하였다. E. coli 발현 시스템은 형질전환 방법이 간단하고, 미생물의 성장 속도가 빠르다는 장점을 갖지만 CalA의 활성이 0.02 Unit/ml으로 비교적 낮았으며 세포질 (cytoplasm)에서 발현되므로 비목적 단백질과의 분리 및 정제과정이 필요하다. 재조합 $pPICZ{\alpha}A$/CalA을 P. pastoris 시스템에서 발현한 경우 높은 발현양 뿐만 아니라 분비작용으로 인해 고순도 발현이 용이하였고, 활성 또한 약 0.7 Unit/ml으로 가장 높았다. 결론적으로 CalA의 기능적 발현을 위해 P. pastoris 시스템을 구축하는 것이 가장 적합함을 확인하였다.
