Abstract
The applications of lipases in esterification, amidation, and transesterification have broadened their potential in the production of fine compounds with high cumulative values. Mostly, the catalytic triad of lipases is covered by either one or two mobile peptides called the "lid" that control the substrate channel to the catalytic center. The lid holds unique conformational allostery via interfacial activation to regulate the dynamics and catalytic functions of lipases, thereby highlighting its importance in redesigning these enzymes for industrial applications. The structural characteristic of lipase, the dynamics of lids, and the roles of lid in lipase catalysis were summarized, providing opportunities for rebuilding lid region by biotechniques (e.g., metagenomic technology and protein engineering) and enzyme immobilization. The review focused on the advantages and disadvantages of strategies rebuilding the lid region. The main shortcomings of biotechnologies on lid rebuilding were discussed such as negative effects on lipase (e.g., a decrease of activity). Additionally, the main shortcomings (e.g., enzyme desorption at high temperatre) in immobilization on hydrophobic supports via interfacial action were presented. Solutions to the mentioned problems were proposed by combinations of computational design with biotechnologies, and improvements of lipase immobilization (e.g., immobilization protocols and support design). Finally, the review provides future perspectives about designing hyperfunctional lipases as biocatalysts in the food industry based on lid conformation and dynamics.

Conformational dynamics of [Formula: see text]-conotoxin PnIB in complex solvent systems. Mol Divers 2019; 24:1291-1299. [PMID: 31502188 DOI: 10.1007/s11030-019-09993-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
Cone snails are slow-moving animals that secure survival by injecting to their prey a concoction of highly potent and stable neurotoxic peptides called conotoxins. These small toxins (~ 10-30 AA) interact with ion channels and their diverse structures account for various variables such as the environment and the prey of preference. This study probed the conformational space of α-conotoxin PnIB from Conus pennaceus by performing all-atom molecular dynamics simulations on the conotoxin in complex solvent systems of water and octanol. Secondary structure analyses showed a uniform conformation for the pure (C100Oc, C100W) and minute (C95Oc, C5Oc) systems. In C50Oc, however, structural changes were observed. The original helices were converted to turns and were shown to happen simultaneously with the elongation of the helix and shortening of end-to-end distance. The transitions complement the orientation of the peptide at the interface. The shift to the broken helix conformation is marked by the rearrangement of solvent molecules to a framework that favors the accumulation of water molecules at residues 6-11 of the H2 region. This promotes specific protein-solvent interactions that facilitate secondary structure transitions. As PnIB has shown favorable binding toward neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, this study may provide insights on this conotoxin's therapeutic potential. Description: Structural changes in PnIB are accompanied by a simultaneous change in solvent density.
