摘要
The functional significance of amino acid residues Lys-265, Asp-270, Lys-277, Asp-288, Asp-347, Glu-349, and Arg-351 of Bacillus kaustophilus leucine aminopeptidase was explored by site-directed mutagenesis. Variants with an apparent molecular mass of approximately 54 kDa were overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity by nickel-chelate chromatography. The purified mutant enzymes had no LAP activity, implying that these residues are important for the catalytic reaction of the enzyme.
