Abstract: Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) from the pyloric ceca of the starfish Asterina pectinifera showed high specific activity and characteristic substrate specificity, compared with commercially available PLA2 from porcine pancreas. To investigate enzymatic properties of the starfish PLA2 in further detail, we constructed a bacterial expression system for the enzyme. The starfish PLA2 cDNA isolated previously (Kishimura et al., 2000b. cDNA cloning and sequencing of phospholipase A2 from the pyloric ceca of the starfish Asterina pectinifera. Comp. Biochem. Physiol. 126B, 579-586) was inserted into the expression plasmid pET-16b and the PLA2 protein was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) by induction with isopropyl-β-(–)-thiogalactopyranoside. The recombinant PLA2 produced as inclusion bodies was dissociated with 8 M urea and 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol and renatured by dialyzing against 10 mM Tris–HCl buffer (pH 8.0). Renatured PLA2 was purified by subsequent column chromatographies on DEAE–cellulose (DE-52) and Sephadex G-50. Although an N-terminal Ser in the native starfish PLA2 was replaced by an Ala in the recombinant PLA2, the recombinant enzyme showed essentially the same properties as did the native PLA2 with respect to specific activity, substrate specificity, optimum pH and temperature, and Ca2+ requirement.
