Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Several L-amino acid dehydrogenases are expected to apply to quantify amino acid concentration in plasma. In this study, we utilized L-threonine dehydrogenase as research target. Two artificial SDR-TDHs were designed by utilizing sequence database to improve their enzymatic function. The artificial SDR-TDHs bore high thermal stability, NAD+ affinity and productivity compared with native SDR-TDH. Furthermore, enzyme kinetics parameters of the artificial SDR-TDHs are almost identical to the native SDR-TDH. In addition, we can elucidate product release mechanism of SDR-TDH through structural and functional analysis of monomeric SDR-TDH.
