Abstract  

Objective: The preparation of 4-vinyl derivatives by biological decarboxylation has many advantages and promising prospects. In this study, the enzymatic properties of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Q-426 phenolic acid decarboxylase (BaPAD-Q-426) were studied in detail to provide theoretical basis for its future application. Methods: In this study, the phenolic acid decarboxylase gene was cloned from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Using pET-28a (+) as vector, the recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3), to achieve high expression of BaPAD-Q-426. It was purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography, and the enzymatic properties were identified. Results: BaPAD-Q-426 maintained good pH stability in the range of pH 7.0~9.0, and the optimum pH was 8.0. The enzyme maintained high enzyme activity in the range of 25~40℃, and the optimum temperature was 35℃. After holding at 4℃ for 30 minutes, the enzyme still maintained more than 95% enzyme activity. K+ significantly promoted the enzyme activity of BaPAD-Q-426 with an increase of 60%. This enzyme was well tolerated in petroleum ethers and retained more than 50% of the enzyme activity in the presence of 40% petroleum ethers. The optimum substrate of BaPAD-Q-426 was ferulic acid, and its enzyme activity reached 19.5 IU/mL. Conclusion: Compared with phenolic acid decarboxylases from other sources, BAPAD-Q-426 has better stability at low temperature and has the strongest catalytic decarboxylation of ferulic acid in weakly alkaline environment.
