Rational design of a novel propeptide for improving active production of Streptomyces griseus trypsin in Pichia pastoris.

ABSTRACT: Applying in silico simulations and in vitro experiments, the amino acid proline was proved to have a profound influence on Streptomyces griseus trypsinogen, and the hydrogen bond between H(57) and D(102) was found to be crucial for trypsin activity. By introducing an artificial propeptide, IVEF, the titer of trypsin was increased 6.71-fold.
