Abstract

A recombinant Pichia pastoris carrying double expression cassette of Rhodotorula glutinis epoxide hydrolase(RgEH) gene was developed and used for preparing enantiopure (S)-styrene oxide from racemic mixture of styrene oxide. BglII restriction site of original RgEH gene (pPICZ B/RgEH #2) of previous report was mutated using PCR technique for the construction of double expression cassette containing promoter ($P_{AOX1}$), EH gene and transcription terminator ($TT_{AOX1}$) in pPICZ C vector. Double expression cassette with RgEH was inserted into the chromosomal DNA of P. pastoris. $V_{max}$ ($2.2{\mu}mol\;min^{-1}mg\;dcw^{-1}$) on (R)-styrene oxide of P. pastoris with double expression cassette was about 6-fold higher than that ($0.4{\mu}mol\;min^{-1}mg\;dcw^{-1}$) of P. pastoris with single expression cassette. For the determination of the optimal condition, the effects of detergent and temperature on the enantioselective hydrolytic activity and yield of the enantiomer were investigated. When the reaction was performed at $10^{\circ}C$ for 10 min in the presence of 0.5% Tween 20, enantiopure (S)-styrene oxide with 99.9% ee was obtained as the yield 43.4 % from 20 mM racemic sustrate.

Rhodotorula glutinis epoxide hydrolase (EH) 유전자를 pPICZ vector에 이중발현 cassette로 재조합하여 발현시킨 재조합균주 Pichia pastoris를 제작하였으며 라세믹 styrene oxide 혼합물로부터 고순도 광학활성 (S)-styrene oxide를 제조하는데 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 R. glutinis EH 유전자는 전보에서 사용한 pPICZ B/RgEH plasmid DNA를 주형으로 하여 얻었으며 PCR 방법으로 BglII 제한자리를 돌연변이 시키고 AOX1 promoter $(P_{AOX1})$-RgEH 유전자-전사종결서열($TT_{AOX1}$)을 이중으로 가진 이중발현 cassette를 만들어 P. pastoris의 염색체 DNA에 삽입시켰다. 반응온도를 $30^{\circ}C$로 하였을 때, RgEH를 이중발현 cassette로 발현시킨 재조합균주 P. pastoris의 (R)-styrene oxide에 대한 $V_{max}$ 값은 $2.2{\mu}mol\;min^{-1} (mg\;dcw)^{-1}$으로 단일발현 cassette로 발현시킨 P. pastoris의 $0.4{\mu}mol\;min^{-1}(mg\;dcw)^{-1}$에 비하여 6배 향상되었다. 광학순도가 높은 (S)-styrene oxide를 제조하는 최적조건을 찾기 위하여 입체선택적 가수분해 속도 및 수율에 미치는 detergent 및 온도의 효과를 실험하였으며, Tween 20을 0.5% 첨가하고 $10^{\circ}C$로 반응시킨 경우 10분 반응을 통해 99.9% ee 이상의 고순도 (S)-styrene oxide를 43.4% 얻을 수 있었다.
