Manganese peroxidases (MnP) from the white-rot fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium catalyse the oxidation of Mn2+ to Mn3+, a strong oxidizer able to oxidize a wide variety of organic compounds. Different approaches have been used to unravel the enzymatic properties and potential applications of MnP. However, these efforts have been hampered by the limited production of native MnP by fungi. Heterologous expression of MnP has been achieved in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic expression systems, although with limited production and many disadvantages in the process. Here we described a novel molecular approach for the expression and purification of manganese peroxidase isoform 1 (MnP1) from P. chrysosporium using an E. coli-expression system. The proposed strategy involved the codon optimization and chemical synthesis of the MnP1 gene for optimised expression in the E. coli T7 shuffle host. Recombinant MnP1 (rMnP1) was expressed as a fusion protein, which was recovered from solubilised inclusion bodies. rMnP1 was purified from the fusion protein using intein-based protein purification techniques and a one-step affinity chromatography. The designated strategy allowed production of an active enzyme able to oxidize guaiacol or Mn2+.

Melittin is a novel peptide of biological activity isolated from bee venom. It has potential application value in medicine and agriculture. Here we encoded melittin gene with the EK recognition sequence in the N-terminus into expression vector pGEX-2T.The expressed fusion protein, which is about 29KDa, identified by Western Blot. To facilitate large-scale production of recombinant GST-fusion protein, we optimized different expression conditions to increase the overall production of the fusion protein. The production of the protein had increased about 10-fold when we used an auto-inducing medium. The GST fusion protein showed an equivalent activity with the natural melittin after digested by EK and can inhibited the proliferations of several human cancer lines. The expression system described in this study provides a feasible way for producing melittin in further studies.

ABSTRACT gp43 is the major diagnostic antigen of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) in humans. In the present study, cDNA of the gp43 gene (PbGP43) was obtained by reverse transcriptase PCR, inserted into a pGEX vector in frame with the glutathione S-transferase (GST) gene, and expressed in Escherichia coli as inclusion bodies. Immunoblotting showed that all sera from patients with chronic pulmonary and acute lymphatic forms of PCM reacted with the recombinant fusion protein of the mature gp43 (381 amino acids). Reactivity with fusion proteins containing subfragments of the N-terminal, internal, or C-terminal regions occurred eventually, and the C-terminal region was the most antigenic. Lack of reactivity with the subfragments may be due to the conformational nature of the gp43 epitopes. Sera from patients with aspergillosis, candidiasis, and histoplasmosis did not react with the gp43-GST fusion protein. Our results suggest that recombinant gp43 corresponding to the processed antigen can be a useful tool in the diagnosis of PCM.
