Expression and site-directed mutagenesis of human protein disulfide isomerase in Escherichia coli. This multifunctional polypeptide has two independently acting catalytic sites for the isomerase activity

Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI, EC 5.3.4.1) is a highly unusual multifunctional polypeptide, being identical to the beta subunit of prolyl 4-hydroxylase, a cellular thyroid hormone binding protein and a component of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein complex, and highly similar to a polypeptide acting in vitro as a glycosylation site binding protein. It has two -Cys-Gly-His-Cys- sequences which, it has been proposed, act as catalytic sites for the isomerase activity, but few data have been available to indicate whether one or both of them do indeed act as catalytic sites and whether the two presumed catalytic sites act independently or cooperatively. We report here on the expression of human PDI in Escherichia coli with three different signal sequences. All three polypeptide variants were secreted into the periplasmic space as fully active enzymes. Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to convert either one or both of the -Cys-Gly-His- Cys- sequences to -Ser-Gly-His-Cys-. The PDI activity of both polypeptides containing a single modified sequence was about 50% of that of the wild-type polypeptide, whereas the polypeptide with two modified sequences had no isomerase activity. It is thus concluded that both -Cys-Gly-His-Cys- sequences act as catalytic sites for the isomerase activity, and the two catalytic sites appear to operate independently of one another.
