development of enzyme engineering to improve, alter, or customise the functional properties of mTGase, e.g. thermoengineering for better heat stability and heat sensitivity, overview. The N-termius of mTGase is an important region that influences the thermal properties of the enzyme due to the fact that all single-point mutations related to the altered thermal properties are located in this area, random mutagenesis. Semirational mutagenesis is also successful to isolate mTGase variants with increased thermostabilities. Seven hot spot residues, which are reported to be the thermostabilizing sites, are mutated for the generation of mutant libraries to screen for thermostable variants. Later, variants with single amino acid substitution comprising of the highest thermostabilities are mixed by DNA shuffling to generate a secondary library for screening. Finally, the variants with improved thermostabilities are isolated via standard assay. For production of soluble enzyme, introduction of a fusion partner with the extension of the N-terminal region to contain few LacZ residues followed by the first 20 residues of enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase is done. This strategy results in the accumulation of high levels of mTGase in the cytoplasm. The thermoinducible expression system yields a lower protein yield but produces the enzyme with a higher specificity as no major modification is done to the enzyme making it preferable compared to constitutive expression system

engineering an automaturing transglutaminase with enhanced thermostability by genetic code expansion with two codon reassignments. The first amino acid, 3-chloro-L-tyrosine, is incorporated into microbial transglutaminase (MTG) in response to in-frame UAG codons to substitute for the 15 tyrosine residues separately. The two substitutions at positions 20 and 62 are found to each increase thermostability of the enzyme, while the seven substitutions at positions 24, 34, 75, 146, 171, 217, and 310 exhibit neutral effects. Then, these two stabilizing chlorinations are combined with one of the neutral ones, and the most stabilized variant is found to contain 3-chlorotyrosines at positions 20, 62, and 171, exhibiting a half-life 5.1fold longer than that of the wild-type enzyme at 60°C. Next, this MTG variant is further modified by incorporating the alpha-hydroxy acid analogue of Nepsilon-allyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine (AlocKOH), specified by the AGG codon, at the end of the N-terminal inhibitory peptide. The ester bond, thus incorporated into the main chain, efficiently self-cleaves under alkaline conditions (pH 11.0), achieving the autonomous maturation of the thermostabilized MTG in transformed Escherichia coli.

the S2P variant is generated by random mutagenesis of the wild-type enzyme, and found to be more thermostable, able to withstand incubation at 60°C, and more active than the wild-type enzyme. The synthetic operon construct (based on GenBank ID KX775947) consists of two parts: first a gene encoding the pro-domain crucial for proper folding of the enzyme and second the gene encoding the mTG thermostable variant S2P, with a C-terminal His-tag. Each part is paired with a preceding PelB secretory sequence. The Km value is 3fold lower for the mutant S2P as compared to the wild-type. Conversely, the turnover number is higher for the wild-type enzyme, although the enzymatic efficiency is 2fold higher for the mutant. The mutant unfolds at a slightly higher temperature (56.3°C vs. 55.8°C) indicating improved thermostability although not statistically significant

utility of single lysine substitutions and the C-terminal Lys447 for engineering efficient acyl acceptor sites suitable for site-specific conjugation to a range of glutamine-based acyl donor substrates. Because recombinant mAbs lack the C-terminal Lys447 due to cleavage by carboxypeptidase B in the production cell host, it is analyzed if blocking the cleavage of Lys447 by the addition of a C-terminal amino acid can result in transamidation of Lys447 by a variety of acyl donor substrates. MTG efficiently transamidates Lys447 in the presence of any nonacidic, nonproline amino acid residue at position 448. Scanning mutagenesis of the hinge region in a Fab' fragment reveals sites of transamidation that are not reactive in the context of the full-length mAb. A positive-control peptide with two known lysine acyl acceptor sites (GGSTKHKIPGGS) is genetically fused to the C-terminus of mAb1 HC or LC (HC-KTag or LC-KTag, respectively) and analyzed for transamidation. The addition of the KTag to the HC C-terminus blocks removal of Lys447, thereby allowing MTG to utilize Lys447 as an acyl acceptor site. Mutational analysis of binding sites
