Further insights into the catalytical properties of deglycosylated pyranose dehydrogenase from Agaricus meleagris recombinantly expressed in Pichia pastoris.

ABSTRACT: The present study focuses on fragmented deglycosylated pyranose dehydrogenase (fdgPDH) from Agaricus meleagris recombinantly expressed in Pichia pastoris . Fragmented deglycosylated PDH is formed from the deglycosylated enzyme (dgPDH) when it spontaneously loses a C-terminal fragment when stored in a buffer solution at 4 °C. The remaining larger fragment has a molecular weight of ∼46 kDa and exhibits higher volumetric activity for glucose oxidation compared with the deglycosylated and glycosylated (gPDH) forms of PDH. Flow injection amperometry and cyclic voltammetry were used to assess and compare the catalytic activity of the three investigated forms of PDH, "wired" to graphite electrodes with two different osmium redox polymers: [Os(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)2(poly(vinylimidazole))1
