Enzymatic Characterization and Coenzyme Specificity Conversion of a Novel Dimeric Malate Dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis

Abstract Malate is an important material to various industrials and clinical applications. Bacillus subtilis is a widely used biocatalyst tool for chemical production. However, the specific enzymatic properties of malate dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsMDH) remain largely unknown. In the present study, BsMDH was cloned, recombinantly expressed and purified to test its enzymatic properties. The molecular weight of single unit of BsMDH was 34,869.7 Da. Matrix-Assisted Laser-Desorption Ionization-Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry and gel filtration analysis indicated that the recombinant BsMDH could form dimers. The kcat/Km values of oxaloacetate and NADH were higher than those of malate and $ NAD^{+} $, respectively, indicating a better catalysis in the direction of malate synthesis than the reverse. Furthermore, six BsMDH mutants were constructed with the substitution of amino acids at the coenzyme binding site. Among them, BsMDH-T7 showed a greatly higher affinity and catalysis efficiency to NADPH than NADH with the degree of alteration of 2039, suggesting the shift of the coenzyme dependence from NADH to NADPH. In addition, BsMDH-T7 showed a relatively lower Km value, but a higher kcat and kcat/Km than NADPH-dependent MDHs from Thermus flavus and Corynebacterium glutamicum. Overall, these results indicated that BsMDH and BsMDH-T7 mutant might be promising enzymes for malate production..
