Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
wild-type and mutant genes gctA and gctB encoding the two subunits GctA and GctB are cloned and expressed together in Escherichia coli XL1-Blue Acidaminococcus fermentans

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
E54A mutation in the subunit GctB, inactive mutant Acidaminococcus fermentans
E54A 0.02% as active as wild-type enzyme Acidaminococcus fermentans
E54D mutation in the subunit GctB Acidaminococcus fermentans
E54D above 7% as active as wild-type enzyme, mutant with changed catalytic mechanism without CoASH intermediate, the Escherichia coli strain producing mutant enzyme shows a lower growth rate and reduced amount of recombinant enzyme Acidaminococcus fermentans
E54Q mutation in the subunit GctB Acidaminococcus fermentans
E54Q mutant activity increases from 1% to almost 100% upon incubation with acetyl-CoA and glutaconate at 37°C within 40 h, the substrates induce the conversion of the mutant glutamine residue into the glutamate residue of the wild-type enzyme Acidaminococcus fermentans
E64A mutation in the subunit GctB, 30% as active as wild-type enzyme Acidaminococcus fermentans
