Abstract Objective: Isocitrate lyase (ICL) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) was acetylated at lysine 322. The aim was to investigate ICL Lys322 acetylation and its regulatory function in activity of ICL. Methods: The prokaryotic expression plasmids pET28a-icl was constructed and Lys322 of ICL was site-directed mutated into arginine (Arg, R) and glutamine (Gln, Q), respectively. Then recombinant proteins ICLWT,ICL322R and ICL322Q were expressed and purified in vitro. Acetylation of wild type ICL and its mutants were examined by Western blotting with anti-acetyllysine antibody, and enzyme activities of proteins were evaluated. Results: Western blotting showed that ICLWT,ICL322R and ICL322Q were indeed acetylated proteins. Compared with activity of ICLWT, mutation of Lys322 to arginine decreased the enzyme activity by approximately 50%, and glutamine substitution dramatically decreased the activity more than 70%. Conclusion: The results of Western blotting showed that the ICL and two mutant proteins can be acetylated effectively in E. coli expression system. Decreasing in ICL322Q activity suggested that Lys322 acetylation could negatively regulate isocitrate lyase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This provided a foundation to study an important aspect of Mtb, the metabolic regulation of Mtb, which may lead to new knowledge on latent infection.
