Gluconobacter strains effectively produce L-sorbose from D-sorbitol because of strong activity of the D-sorbitol dehydrogenase (SLDH). L-sorbose is one of the important intermediates in the industrial vitamin C production process. Two kinds of membrane-bound SLDHs, which consist of three subunits, were reportedly found in Gluconobacter strains [Agric. Biol. Chem. 46 (1982) 135,FEMS Microbiol. Lett. 125 (1995) 45]. We purified a one-subunit-type SLDH (80 kDa) from the membrane fraction of Gluconobacter suboxydans IFO 3255 solubilized with Triton X-100 in the presence of D-sorbitol, but the cofactor could not be identified from the purified enzyme. The SLDH was active on mannitol, glycerol and other sugar alcohols as well as on D-sorbitol to produce respective keto-aldoses. Then, the SLDH gene (sldA) was cloned and sequenced. It encodes the polypeptide of 740 residues, which contains a signal sequence of 24 residues. SLDH had 35-37% identity to those of membrane-bound quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenases (GDHs) from Escherichia coli, Gluconobacter oxydans and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus except the N-terminal hydrophobic region of GDH. Additionally, the sldB gene located just upstream of sldA was found to encode the polypeptide consisting of 126 very hydrophobic residues that is similar to the one-sixth N-terminal region of the GDH. Development of the SLDH activity in E. coli required co-expression of the sldA and sldB genes and the presence of PQQ. The sldA gene disruptant showed undetectable oxidation activities on D-sorbitol in growing culture, and resting-cell reaction (pH 4.5 and 7); in addition, they showed undetectable activities on D-mannitol and glycerol. The disruption of the sldB gene by a gene cassette with a downward promoter to express the sldA gene resulted in formation of a larger size of the SLDH protein and in undetectable oxidation of the polyols. In conclusion, the SLDH of the strain 3255 functions as the main polyol dehydrogenase in vivo. The sldB polypeptide possibly has a chaperone-like function to process the SLDH polypeptide into a mature and active form. << Less
