Description

TEV protease S219P autocatalysis resistant variant

Introduction :

This is the nuclear inclusion protease, endogenous to Tobacco Etch Virus and is used in the late lifecycle to cleave polyprotein precursors. The recognition sequence is ENLYFQG/S http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W9V-45PMGK3-9P&_user=217827&_coverDate=02%2F01%2F1994&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000011279&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=217827&md5=e075aad3a349720ad9484095d01a65be&searchtype=a] between QG or QSDue to it???s stringent sequence specificity, TEV is commonly used to cleave genetically engineered proteins.

Uses:

TEV proteinase is used to cleave fusion proteins. It is useful due to its high degree of specificity [http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W9V-45PMGK3-9P&_user=217827&_coverDate=02%2F01%2F1994&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000011279&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=217827&md5=e075aad3a349720ad9484095d01a65be&searchtype=a] and potential to be used in vivo or in vitro applications.


Auto-inactivation

Wild type TEV protease also cleaves itself at Met 218 and Ser 219 [http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6WXR-45R86R6-5X&_user=7635175&_coverDate=06%2F20%2F1995&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000011279&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=7635175&md5=0a1521e783c0bd4126b145f3f6d766d4&searchtype=a]
. This leads to auto-inactivation of the TEV protease and progressive loss of activity of the protein. The rate of inactivation is proportional to the concentration of protease []

More stable Mutants have been produced by single amino acid substitutions S219V (AGC(serine) to GTG(valine) and S219P (AGC(serine) to CCG(proline)

Table I. Kinetic parameters for wild-type and mutant TEV proteases with the peptide substrate TENLYFQSGTRR-NH2.
Enzyme Km (mM) kcat (s−1) kcat/Km (mM−1 s−1)
Wild-type 0.061 ?? 0.010 0.16 ?? 0.01 2.62 ?? 0.46
S219V* 0.041 ?? 0.010 0.19 ?? 0.01 4.63 ?? 1.16
S219P* 0.066 ?? 0.008 0.09 ?? 0.01 1.36 ?? 0.22

S219P* - virtually imperivious to autocatalysis
S219V* - retains same activity as wild type
