Information Content Entity
An aprE mutant from B. subtilis 168 lacking the connecting loop Leu 75 - Leu 82 which is predicted to encode a Ca 2 binding site was constructed. Expression of the mutant gene (aprE Δ L e u 75 - L e u 82) produced B. subtilis colonies lacking protease activity. Intrinsic fluorescence analysis revealed spectral differences between wild-type AprE and AprE Δ L 75 - L 82. An AprE Δ L 75 - L 82 variant with reestablished enzyme activity was selected by directed evolution. The novel mutations Thr 66 Met/ Gly 102 Asp located in positions which are predicted to be important for catalytic activity were identified in this variant. Although these mutations restored hydrolysis, they had no effect with respect to thermal inactivation of AprE Δ L 75 - L 82 T 66 M G 102 D. These results support the proposal that in addition to function as a calcium binding site, the loop that connects -sheet e3 with -helix c plays a structural role on enzyme activity of AprE from B. subtilis 168.

Engineering and directed evolution of a Ca2 binding site A-Deficient AprE mutant reveal an essential contribution of the loop leu 75 -leu 82 to enzyme activity
An aprE mutant from B. subtilis 168 lacking the connecting loop Leu 75 - Leu 82 which is predicted to encode a Ca 2 %2b binding site was constructed. Expression of the mutant gene (aprE Δ L e u 75 - L e u 82) produced B. subtilis colonies lacking protease activity. Intrinsic fluorescence analysis revealed spectral differences between wild-type AprE and AprE Δ L 75 - L 82. An AprE Δ L 75 - L 82 variant with reestablished enzyme activity was selected by directed evolution. The novel mutations Thr 66 Met/ Gly 102 Asp located in positions which are predicted to be important for catalytic activity were identified in this variant. Although these mutations restored hydrolysis, they had no effect with respect to thermal inactivation of AprE Δ L 75 - L 82 T 66 M G 102 D.
