Cloning and Functional Expression of Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase from Citrobacter amalonaticus Y19 in E. coli

초록

영어

Industrialization has resulted in emission of large amount of carbon monoxide into the atmosphere, which is hazardous to living organisms. Therefore conversion of CO to non toxic materials is highly essential. Hydrogen production from CO will be a value added contribution in replacing fossil fuels, as hydrogen has enormous potential as future energy due to its abundance and non-polluting nature. Citrobacter amalonaticus Y19, a facultative anaerobic bacterium, isolated by Jung et al. (2002) [1], was characterized for hydrogen production from the toxic carbon monoxide gas. Contig genome analysis of this microorganism revealed that cooFSCTJhypB genes are involved in expressing functional carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH). These genes were heterologously overexpressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3) by cloning in pACYCDuet vector. This resulted in an enzyme activity of 269 μmol CO min-1mg protein-1, which is comparatively higher than the CODH activity in wild type Y19 [2].
