10ppmテトラサイクリンを添加したLB培地500μLを分注した96穴ディープウェルプレートに(1)で得た組換え枯草菌コロニーを植菌した後、32℃、1500rpmで一晩培養した。翌日、培養液20μLを2×L-マルトース培地(2%トリプトン、1%酵母エキス、1%NaCl、7.5%マルトース、7.5ppm硫酸マンガン五水和物、0.04%塩化カルシウム二水和物、10ppmテトラサイクリン;%は(w/v)%)500μLを分注した96穴ディープウェルプレートに植菌し、32℃、1500rpmで2日間培養した後、菌体から産生された酵素を含む培養上清を遠心分離により回収し酵素溶液とした。
表2記載の変異体及び各親酵素のキレート剤存在下での保存安定性を評価した。AATCC High Efficiency Standard Reference Detergent WITHOUT Brightenerを100mMクエン酸バッファー(pH5.0)で10倍希釈したものにイオン交換水で5倍希釈した培養上清を添加し、50℃で10分~1時間インキュベートした後にイオン交換水にて10倍希釈したものを用いて活性測定を行った。また、安定性の比較のために、Termamyl 300L(Sigma-Aldrich)をイオン交換水で200ppmになるように希釈した溶液についても同様の評価を行った。用いて50℃処理前のサンプルの活性値を初発活性として、50℃処理による単位時間(h)当たりの失活速度を算出し、そこから半減期(h)を計算した。各変異体の半減期(h)を親ポリペプチド又はTermamylの半減期(h)で割ることで相対安定性を求めた。表3-1及び表3-2にその結果を示す。いずれの変異体も親ポリペプチド及びTermamylと比較して安定性が向上していることが示された。
AATCC High Efficiency Standard Reference Detergent WITHOUT Brightenerを20mMクエン酸バッファー(pH5.0)で10倍希釈したものにイオン交換水で5倍希釈した培養上清を添加し、50℃で30分~18時間インキュベートした後に50mMTris-HCl(pH7.5)にて10倍希釈したものを用いて活性測定を行った。その後(4)と同様の方法で変異体の相対安定性を求めた。表4-1及び表4-2にその結果を示す。いずれの変異体も親ポリペプチド及びTermamylと比較して安定性が向上していることが示された。
