Abstract:
Purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) are dinuclear metallohydrolases of widespread occurrence. In a first step to understand structure-function relationship of PAP from red kidney bean (kbPAP), we cloned its cDNA and functionally expressed the enzyme in insect cells. kbPAP cDNA encodes a protein of 459 amino acids with 99% identity to the published primary structure (T. Klabunde et al., Eur. J. Biochem. 226 (1994) 369-375). N-terminally the cDNA encodes 27 amino acids with characteristics for a signal directing the nascent protein to the endoplasmic reticulum. A baculovirus vector was constructed containing cDNAs of kbPAP and green fluorescent protein, the latter to serve as transfection and infection marker. Heterologous expression in High Five insect cells afforded a dimeric, disulfide-linked phosphatase of 110 kDa, identical to the mass of native kbPAP. Purification in three steps yielded 1.5 mg recombinant protein per liter of culture medium with a specific activity of 266 units/mg, slightly exceeding that of native kbPAP. The recombinant protein was functionally indistinguishable from native kbPAP, despite differences in glycosylation and sensitivity to redox reagents.
