摘要： 对已公布的全基因组进行检索发现, 杨树 (Populus tomentosa) 至少含有 24 个预测为可溶性环氧水解酶的基因. 从中选取了 7 个可能的环氧水解酶基因进行克隆, 通过扩增得到其中 5 个毛白杨 (Populus tomentosa Carr) 环氧水解酶基因. 序列分析显示, 它们与已克隆的巨大芽胞杆菌环氧水解酶的同源性仅为 24%~26%. 对该系列基因进行了在 E. coli 中的异源表达, 并将得到的 5 个环氧水解酶 (PTEH 1~5) 用于缩水甘油苯基醚和对硝基苯乙烯氧化物的酶促水解反应. 结果发现, 其中 3 个重组酶具有显著的环氧水解酶活性. 进一步研究表明, PTEH1 和 PTEH2 对于缩水甘油苯基醚显示了一定的反常规的 (R)-选择性, 而 PTEH5 则优先水解 (S)-构型的缩水甘油苯基醚. 因此, 毛白杨中环氧水解酶表现出多样性.

Abstract: The genome of Populus tomentosa was the first to be reported in trees. Based on the mining results of the database, a gene pool encoding 24 potential soluble epoxide hydrolases was proposed. In which, 7 genes were selected in this study, and 5 genes were successfully cloned and sequenced. Sequence analysis showed that the cloned epoxide hydrolases had merely 24%–26% similarity to the newly cloned Bacillus megaterium epoxide hydrolase. Then the 5 genes were heterogeneously expressed in E. coli and used for hydrolytic reactions of two model substrates, phenyl glycidyl ether and p-nitrostyrene oxide. Epoxide hydrolysis activity was detected in 3 recombinant epoxide hydrolases, in which PTEH1 and PTEH2 showed (R)-selectivity in hydrolysis of phenyl glycidyl ether, while PTEH5 preferred to hydrolyze (S)-phenyl glycidyl ether. This work proves the diversity of epoxide hydrolases from P. tomentosa.
