| Abstract: |
This study is the first attempt to report the biochemical characterisation of the 10 S -dioxygenase (10 S -DOX) and 7 S , 10 S -diol synthase (7,10-DS). Both enzymes showed similar pH profiles with 10 S -DOX presenting the highest activity at 30 °C whereas 7,10-DS did not show a clear preferred temperature. These differences were reflected in the thermostability assay, the Km values were 0.89 ± 0.22 mM and 3.26 ± 0.31 mM for 10 S -DOX and 7,10-DS, respectively. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry indicated that both enzymes contained bound to haem group Fe2+ as a prosthetic group: 10 S -DOX (0.95 mol Fe2+/mol of protein) and 7,10-DS (1.18 mol Fe2+/mol of protein), respectively. Assays using metal cations as cofactors revealed that Mg2+ and Ni2+ enhance 7,10-DS activity, whereas Hg2+ decrease it up to 50 %. The activity of 10 S -DOX in the presence of Mn2+ and Fe2+ was reduced to 51.6 % and 61.8. Aggregated proteins producing 10 S -DOX and 7,10-DS were characterised as inclusion bodies: IBs-77 and IBs-78 respectively, was performed by Fourier Transform spectroscopy (FT-IR), Atomic Force Microscopy, dye binding, and proteolysis. The specific activity was 1.55 IU/mg for IBs-77 and 1.05 IU/mg for IBs-78. The presence of the oleate-diol synthase pathway in proteobacteria other than Pseudomonas aeruginosa was detected. [Display omitted] • Biochemical characterisation of recombinant 10 S -dioxygenase (10 S -DOX) and 7,10-diolsynthase (7,10-DS) from P. aeruginosa. • Production of 10 S- hydroxy(per)-oxi-(8 E)-octadecenoic acid using recombinant 10 S -DOX. • Aggregate proteins 10 S -DOX and 7,10-DS were characterised as inclusion bodies. • Oleic acid conversion by diol syntase system is not restricted to P. aeruginosa.
