expression of wild-type and mutant enzymes in Escherichia coli Serratia marcescens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
F396A site-directed mutagenesis of the +2 subsite residue of isozyme ChiA, the mutant shows only modest reductions in processivity, and shows reduced efficiency toward chitin and an up to 20fold higher activity toward chitosan Serratia marcescens
W167A site-directed mutagenesis of the -3 subsite residue of isozyme ChiA, the mutant shows almost abolished progressivity, reduced efficiency toward chitin and an up to 20fold higher activity toward chitosan Serratia marcescens
W167A/W275A site-directed mutagenesis of the -3 and +1 subsites residues of isozyme ChiA, the mutant shows reduced efficiency toward chitin and an up to 20fold higher activity toward chitosan Serratia marcescens
W275A site-directed mutagenesis of the +1 subsite residue of isozyme ChiA, the mutant shows only modest reductions in processivity, and shows reduced efficiency toward chitin and an up to 20fold higher activity toward chitosan Serratia marcescens

additional information aromatic residues in the catalytic center of chitinase A affect processivity, enzyme activity, and biomass converting efficiency. Progressivity of isozymes is dependent on the substrate, the processive mechanism is essential for an efficient conversion of crystalline substrates but comes at a large cost in terms of intrinsic enzyme speed, overview Serratia marcescens ?
