Cím:The substrate specificity of Metarhizium anisopliae and Bos taurus carboxypeptidases A : insights into their use as tools for the removal of affinity tags / Austin Brian P., Tözsér József, Bagossi Péter, Tropea Joseph E., Waugh David S.

Megjegyzések:Carboxypeptidases may serve as tools for removal of C-terminal affinity tags. In the present study, we describe the expression and purification of an A-type carboxypeptidase from the fungal pathogen Metarhizium anisopliae (MeCPA) that has been genetically engineered to facilitate the removal of polyhistidine tags from the C-termini of recombinant proteins. A complete, systematic analysis of the specificity of MeCPA in comparison with that of bovine carboxypeptidase A (BoCPA) was carried out. Our results indicate that the specificity of the two enzymes is similar but not identical. Histidine residues are removed more efficiently by MeCPA. The very inefficient digestion of peptides with C-terminal lysine or arginine residues, along with the complete inability of the enzyme to remove a C-terminal proline, suggests a strategy for designing C-terminal affinity tags that can be trimmed by MeCPA (or BoCPA) to produce a digestion product with a homogeneous endpoint.

Cím:Improved purification protocol for wild-type and mutant human foamy virus proteases / Péter Boross, József Tőzsér, Péter Bagossi
Dátum:2006
ISSN:1046-5928
Megjegyzések:Wild-type and an active site mutant (S25T) human foamy virus (HFV) proteases were expressed in fusion with maltose binding protein in Escherichia coli. The mutant enzyme contained a Ser to Thr mutation in the -Asp-Ser-Gly- active site triplet of the enzyme, which forms the "fireman's grip" between the two subunits of the homodimeric enzyme. The fusion proteins were purified by affinity chromatography on amylose resin, cleaved with factor Xa, and the processed enzymes were purified by gel filtration under denaturing condition. Refolding after purification resulted in active enzymes with comparable yields. Furthermore, both enzymes showed similar catalytic activities in an oligopeptide substrate representing an HFV Gag cleavage site. However, the S25T mutant showed increased stability in urea unfolding experiment, in a good agreement with the suggested role of the Thr residue of fireman's grip.

Cím:Expression of the murine leukemia virus protease in fusion with maltose-binding protein in Escherichia coli / Fehér Anita, Boross Péter, Sperka Tamás, Oroszlan Stephen, Tözsér József
Dátum:2004
ISSN:1046-5928
Megjegyzések:The protease of murine leukemia virus (MLV) was cloned into pMal-c2 vector, expressed in fusion with maltose-binding protein (MBP), and purified to homogeneity after Factor Xa cleavage of the chimeric protein. Substantial degradation of the fusion protein was observed during expression, which severely diminished the yield. The degree of degradation of the fusion protein was even more pronounced when a single-chain form of the MLV protease was cloned after the gene coding for MBP. To increase the yield, a hexahistidine tag with an additional Factor Xa cleavage site was cloned after the protease and nickel chelate affinity chromatography was used as the first purification step. The modified procedure resulted in substantially higher yield as compared to the original procedure. The degradation of hexahistidine-tagged active site mutant MLV protease was very low and comparable to that obtained with hexahistidine-tagged MBP, but purified MLV protease alone was not able to degrade purified MBP, suggesting that during expression the active MLV protease may activate bacterial proteases which appear to be responsible for the degradation of the fusion proteins.

Cím:Efficient site-specific processing of fusion proteins by tobacco vein mottling virus protease in vivo and in vitro / Nallamsetty Sreedevi, Kapust Rachel B., Tözsér József, Cherry Scott, Tropea Joseph E., Copeland Terry D., Waugh David S.
Dátum:2004
ISSN:1046-5928
Megjegyzések:Affinity tags are widely used as vehicles for the production of recombinant proteins. Yet, because of concerns about their potential to interfere with the activity or structure of proteins, it is almost always desirable to remove them from the target protein. The proteases that are most often used to cleave fusion proteins are factor Xa, enterokinase, and thrombin, yet the literature is replete with reports of fusion proteins that were cleaved by these proteases at locations other than the designed site. It is becoming increasingly evident that certain viral proteases have more stringent sequence specificity. These proteases adopt a trypsin-like fold but possess an unconventional catalytic triad in which Cys replaces Ser. The tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease is the best-characterized enzyme of this type. TEV protease cleaves the sequence ENLYFQG/S between QG or QS with high specificity. The tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV) protease is a close relative of TEV protease with a distinct sequence specificity (ETVRFQG/S). We show that, like TEV protease, TVMV protease can be used to cleave fusion proteins with high specificity in vitro and in vivo. We compared the catalytic activity of the two enzymes as a function of temperature and ionic strength, using an MBP-NusG fusion protein as a model substrate. The behavior of TVMV protease was very similar to that of TEV protease. Its catalytic activity was greatest in the absence of NaCl, but diminished only threefold with increasing salt up to 200 mM. We found that the optimum temperatures of the two enzymes are nearly the same and that they differ only two-fold in catalytic efficiency, both at room temperature and 4 degrees C. Hence, TVMV protease may be a useful alternative to TEV protease when a recombinant protein happens to contain a sequence that is similar to a TEV protease recognition site or for protein expression strategies that involve the use of more than one protease.

Cím:Molecular cloning, overproduction, purification and biochemical characterization of the p39 nsp2 protease domains encoded by three alphaviruses / Zhang D., Tözsér J., Waugh D. S.
Dátum:2009
ISSN:1046-5928
Megjegyzések:Alphaviruses cause serious diseases that pose a potential health threat to both humans and livestock. The nonstructural protein 2 (nsp2) encoded by alphaviruses is a multifunctional enzyme that is essential for viral replication and maturation. Its 39-kDa C-terminal domain (nsp2pro) is a cysteine protease that is responsible for cleaving a viral polyprotein at three sites to generate nonstructural proteins 1, 2, 3 and 4. In the present study, we evaluated nsp2pro domains from the following three sources as reagents for site-specific cleavage of fusion proteins: Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus (VEEV), Semliki Forest Virus (SFV) and Sindbis Virus (SIN). All three alphavirus proteases cleaved model fusion protein substrates with high specificity but they were much less efficient enzymes than potyviral proteases from tobacco etch virus (TEV) and tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV). Oligopeptide substrates were also cleaved with very low efficiency by the alphavirus proteases. We conclude that, in general, alphavirus nsp2pro proteases are not very useful tools for the removal of affinity tags from recombinant proteins although they do remain promising therapeutic targets for the treatment of a variety of diseases
