RESUMO

The high affinity interaction streptavidin-biotin provides an excellent system for industrial enzyme separation or immobilization involving a fused streptavidin-enzyme and a biotinylated support. In order to produce proteins with affinity to biotin, we have modified the commercial K. lactis system, pKLAC1 (New England Biolabs), a LAC4 promoter-driven integration vector for protein expression, with the gene coding streptavidin. The codifying sequence for biotin binding domain of streptavidin (cStp) was amplified by PCR from pSTP4, purified and subcloned to the pCR2.1TOPO (Invitrogen). The fragment has revealed 100% identity with streptavidin gene according to Gene Bank and it was inserted into Xho I / Bgl II pKLAC1 in frame with mating-α-factor signal peptide. The pKLAC1/cStp cut by Ahd I enzyme was used to transform the strains K. lactis MW 98.8C and CB S2359. The transformants selected in Yeast Carbon Base (YCB) containing 5 mM acetamide and confirmed by PCR were mitotically stable. A high cell biomass (OD 600 = 18), obtained in shake-flask 50 mL YPD medium, was centrifuged and transferred to an induction medium, containing 2% of lactose. The cell free medium was qualitatively analyzed for streptavidin and proteins by SDS PAGE. The samples were collected in each 24 hours during 6 days of bath culture. The biotin binding activity of streptavidin in the culture supernatant was determined by HABA test. The medium YPL and YNB with 0,5% of yeast extract have exhibited the best yields for streptavidin extracellular protein production.
