Biochemical characterization of a thermophilic hyaluronate lyase TcHly8C from Thermasporomyces composti DSM22891.
2020
Abstract Hyaluronic acid (HA) is an anionic linear polysaccharide abundantly distributed in the extracellular matrix of mammalian connective, growing, and tumor tissues. Hyaluronidase is used as an important drug diffusion promoter and a tool enzyme to produce HA oligosaccharides. However, there is no thermostable hyaluronidase suitable for application to date. In this study, a thermophilic hyaluronate lyase, TcHly8C, from Thermasporomyces composti DSM22891 was expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant TcHly8C was most active at 70 °C, and it retained about 30% of initial activity after incubation at 60 °C for 28 days. The half-lives of TcHly8C at 60 °C and 70 °C were 16.1 d and 2.3 h, respectively. The optimum pH of TcHly8C is 5.93, and it was stable at pH 6.15–10.90. The presence of Mg2+ could enhance its enzymatic activity significantly. Km, kcat, and kcat/Km of TcHly8C towards HA were 3.69 mg∙ml−1, 17.82 s−1, and 4.82 ml∙mg−1∙s−1, respectively. TcHly8C degraded HA in an exolytic mode, and the end product was unsaturated HA disaccharide (ΔUA-GlcNAc). Overall, our results show that TcHly8C is the first reported PL8 exo-type hyaluronate lyase with high thermostability, which provides a potential enzyme used in medicine and production of HA oligosaccharides.
