The recombinant IBP from an Antarctic bacterium, Flavobacterium frigoris PS1, FfIBP (Flavobacterium frigoris ice-binding protein), was produced using Pichia pastoris expression system. The optimum fermentation temperature and pH for fed-batch production of FfIBP were 30℃ and 5, respectively. The maximal cell density and purified FfIBP were 112 g/L and 70 mg/L, respectively. The thermal hysteresis (TH) activity (0.85℃) of FfIBP obtained using a glycerol-methanol fed-batch culture system was 2-fold higher than that of the LeIBP (Leucosporidium ice-binding protein). This work allows for large-scale production of FfIBP, which could be extended to further application studies using recombinant IBPs.

The recombinant AFP from an Antarctic bacterium, Flavobacterium frigoris PS1, FfIBP (Flavobacterium frigoris ice-binding protein), was produced using Pichia pastoris expression system. The optimum fermentation temperature (30°C) and pH (5) for FfIBP production was determined using a fed-batch culture system. The maximal cell density and purified FfIBP were 112 g/L and 70 mg/L, respectively. The thermal hysteresis (TH) activity (0.85℃) of FfIBP obtained using a glycerol-methanol fed-batch culture system was 2-fold higher than that of the LeIBP (Leucosporidium ice-binding protein). This work allows for large-scale production of FfIBP, which could be extended to further application studies using recombinant AFPs.

Based on previous studies of homologous proteins, CpsUbiX is thought to catalyze the decarboxylation of 3-octaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoate to produce 2-polyprenylphenol in the ubiquinone biosynthesis pathway using a noncovalently bound FMN molecule as a cofactor. However, the detailed mechanisms of this important enzyme are not yet clear and need to be further elucidated. In this study, we found that the V47S single mutation resulted in a loss of FMN binding, resulting in the production of the FMN-free CpsUbiX protein. This mutation likely destabilizes FMN-protein interactions without affecting overall structural folding. To fully characterize the conformational changes upon FMN binding and enzymatic mechanism at the molecular level, the wild-type (FMN-bound) and V47S mutant (FMN-free) CpsUbiX proteins were purified and crystallized using the sitting-drop vapor diffusion method. Furthermore, complete diffraction data sets of FMN-bound (space group C2221) and FMN-free (space group P23) forms were obtained to 2.0 and 1.76 A resolution, respectively.
