A comparative study of two α-L-rhamnosidases with high sequence identity

The GH78 α-L-rhamnosidase from Aspergillus tubingensis (AT-Rha) was proved to be a new clade of Aspergillus α-L-rhamnosidases in the previous study. A putative α-L-rhamnosidase from A. kawachii IFO 4308 (AK-Rha) has 92 % identity in amino acid sequence with AT-Rha. In this study, AK-Rha was expresse...

Zusammenfassung:The GH78 α-L-rhamnosidase from Aspergillus tubingensis (AT-Rha) was proved to be a new clade of Aspergillus α-L-rhamnosidases in the previous study. A putative α-L-rhamnosidase from A. kawachii IFO 4308 (AK-Rha) has 92 % identity in amino acid sequence with AT-Rha. In this study, AK-Rha was expressed in P. pastoris and characterized. Similar to AT-rRha, the recombinant AK-Rha (AK-rRha) showed a narrow substrate specificity to naringin. Interestingly, the enzyme activity of AK-rRha was 0.816 U/mg toward naringin, significantly lower than 125.142 U/mg of AT-rRha. Their large differences in catalytic efficiency was mainly due to their differences in kcat values between AK-rRha (0.67 s−1) and AT-rRha (4.89 × 104 s−1). The molecular dynamics simulation exhibited that the overall conformation of AK-Rha was rigid and that of AT-Rha was flexible; the Loop Y-L located above the catalytic domain formed different steric hindrances to naringin, and interacted with the flavonoid matrices at different strengths. The polar solvation energy analysis implied that the glycosidic bond was more easily hydrolysed in AT-Rha. The comparative study verified that the main feature of AK-Rha and AT-Rha represented Aspergillus α-L-rhamnosidase was the narrow substrate specificity toward naringin, and provided an insight of the relationships between their catalytic abilities and structures. •A putative α-L-rhamnosidase AK-Rha has 92 % identity with AT-Rha.•AK-rRha enzyme activity was 0.65 % of AT-rRha enzyme activity.•kcat value of AK-rRha was 3 orders of magnitude lower than AT-rRha.•Overall and local conformation flexibility was essential to high enzyme activity.•Steric hindrance effect of Loop Y-L was closely related to enzyme activity.
