Extremities of proteins are potent sites for functionalization. Carboxy terminus variants of the Trametes sp. strain C30 LAC3 laccase were generated and produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A variant deleted of the last 13 residues (CΔ) and its 6 His tagged counterpart (CΔ6H) were found active enzymes. The production of CΔ6H resulted in the synthesis of a unusually high proportion of highly glycosylated forms of the enzyme therefore allowing the additional purification of a hyper-glycosylated form of CΔ6H noted CΔ6Hh. Properties of CΔ, CΔ6H and CΔ6Hh were compared. Globally, LAC3 catalytic efficiency was moderately affected by terminal modifications except in CΔ for which the kcat/KM ratio decreased 4 fold (with syringaldazine as substrate) and 10 fold (with ABTS as substrate) respectively. The catalytic parameters kcat and KM of CΔ6H and CΔ6Hh were found to be strictly comparable revealing that over glycosylation does not affect the enzyme catalytic efficiency. To the contrary, in vitro deglycosylation of laccase drastically reduced its activity. So, despite a complex glycosylated pattern observed for some of the variant enzymes, terminal sequences of laccases appear to be appropriate sites for the functionalization/immobilization of laccase.
