Single Amino Acid Mutation of Pyranose 2-Oxidase Results in Increased Specificity for Diabetes Biomarker 1,5-Anhydro-D-Glucitol.

ABSTRACT: Pyranose 2-oxidases catalyze the oxidation of various pyranose sugars at the C2 position. However, their potential application for detecting sugars other than glucose in blood is hindered by relatively high activity towards glucose. In this study, in order to find a mutant enzyme with enhanced specificity for 1,5-anhydro-D-glucitol (1,5-AG), which is a biomarker for diabetes mellitus, we conducted site-directed mutagenesis of pyranose 2-oxidase from the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium ( Pc POX). Considering the three-dimensional structure of the substrate-binding site of Pc POX and the structural difference between glucose and 1,5-AG, we selected alanine 551 of Pc POX as a target residue for mutation. Kinetic studies of the 19 mutants of Pc POX expressed as recombinant proteins in E. coli revealed that the ratio of k _cat / K _m for 1,5-AG to k _cat / K _m for glucose was three times higher for the A551L mutant than for wild-type Pc POX. Although the A551L mutant has lower specific activity towards each substrate than the wild-type enzyme, its increased specificity for 1,5-AG makes it a promising lead for the development of POX-based 1,5-AG detection systems.

Project description:BackgroundPlasma 1,5-anhydro-D-glucitol (1,5-AG) may be a easily accessible marker for glycemic variability under mild-to-moderate hyperglycemia. The present study was to investigate the association of 1,5-AG with peripheral nerve function and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in patients with T2D and mild-to-moderate hyperglycemia.MethodsWe recruited 574 T2D patients with mild-to-moderate hyperglycemia (HbA1c < 8.0%) for this cross-sectional study, with plasma 1,5-AG synchronously detected. All patients were questioned for neurologic symptoms, examined for neurologic signs and screened for peripheral nerve function. Nerve function included the latency, amplitude and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) of limbs nerves (median, ulnar nerve, common peroneal, superficial peroneal, tibial and sural nerve). Besides, composite Z-score of latency, amplitude and NCV were calculated. DPN was identified as both at least a neurologic symptom/sign and an abnormality of peripheral nerve function.ResultsAmong the recruited patients, 23.9% (n = 137) were identified to be with DPN, and the prevalence of DPN decreased from 36.6%, 24.5%, 21.2%, 13.3% from first (Q1), second (Q2), and third (Q3) to fourth quartile (Q4) of 1,5-AG. Moreover, multivariable linear regression analysis showed 1,5-AG was associated with composite Z-score of nerve latency (β = - 0.18, t = - 3.84, p < 0.001), amplitude(β = 0.26, t = 5.35, p < 0.001) and NCV (β = 0.24, t = 5.61, p < 0.001), respectively. Furthermore, compared to Q4 of 1,5-AG as reference, the adjusted odds ratios and 95% CIs for DPN of Q3, Q2, and Q1 were 1.29(0.59-2.81), 1.85(0.87-3.97), and 2.72(1.16-6.34), respectively. Additionally, receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that optimal cutoff value of 1,5-AG to indicate DPN was ≤ 30.8 μmol/L, with sensitivity of 56.20% and specificity of 66.36%.ConclusionsLow plasma 1,5-AG is closely associated with impaired peripheral nerve function and DPN in T2D patients under mild-to-moderate hyperglycemia.
