Protease inhibitors have a broad biotechnological application, which goes since the development of several drugs to your utilization as a bioinsecticide, antifungal and as an antibacterial agent. However, those are found in small quantities in their natural sources, which unfeasible it utilization in industrial scale. Therefore, the heterologous production ends up as a method that allows the increase of scale production of those proteins. The Inga laurina Trypsin Inhibitor (ILTI) previously characterized showed an inhibitory effect in proteases extracted from the midgut of insects, besides reducing its larval developments by up to 84%, therefore, boing a candidate to be used as a potential bioinsecticide. Thus, the present work aimed at the heterologous production of ILTI in Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris), followed by the optimization of the culture modes in a bioreactor with the objective of maximizing the production of the recombinant protein. For this, the gene that codifies ILTI were cloned in the expression vector pPIC9K, followed by your insertion on the strain GS115 by electroporation. PCR analysis showed that the recombinant vector was integrated into the genome of the yeast, and all the clones obtained had MutS genotype. The expression was performed for 96 hours by adding 0.5% methanol. An analysis of the proteins on the supernatant of the recombinant strain culture, by SDS-PAGE, confirmed the production of a protein with a size close to 20 KDa. Data from MALDI-TOF confirmed that the obtained protein is, in fact, the recombinant ILTI. Furthermore, inhibitory assays showed that the produced protein had activity against trypsin. Thus, culture in bioreactors was performed to optimize the production of this heterologous protein. In order to increase its expression, fed-batch was performed where on the batch phase the biomass production was favored, and the feeding phase was programmed to continuously supply methanol, based on the methanol specific consumption and its specific growth velocity, using methanol as carbon source. During the fermentations, 351.27 UIT were obtained in the extract of crude fermentation broth, and a specific activity of 2.07 UIT/mg protein. Although widely used as a host for the production of heterologous proteins, studies of the production of protease inhibitors in K. phaffii are still very limited. Until the moment, there is no report in the optimization of the production of serine protease inhibitors in K. phaffii, making this study pioneering and essential for the beginning of scaling up the process of this technology. |
