Abstrakt: Cysteine, a critical residue for catalytic process but also vulnerable to oxidative damage, was conventionally expressed as a buried catalytic site in most redox enzymes. In the present work, specific surface-exposed sites of a NADH oxidase from Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LrNox) were selected and mutated to cysteine to investigate its effects on catalytic function because LrNox has a buried catalytic cysteine but no surface-exposed one. The results showed that exception of the sites on dimer interface, the activities of LrNox mutants were improved to vary degrees when the polar uncharged and alanine residues were mutated to cysteine. But the cysteine mutations of polar charged and nonpolar residues except alanine showed obvious decline in catalytic activity. Substituting of Ala85 and Thr96 with other residues suggested that the cysteine mutation showed the highest activity. Structural analysis suggested that even a single cysteine mutation on the specific non-conserved surface area of LrNox could induce changes on the conformation of catalytic cysteine and lower the activation free energy to improve the catalytic activity.
