Previous studies reported that D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) activity was closely associated with neuropathic pain, cognitive characteristics of schizophrenia and so on. To determine DAAO mutant sites in different strains of mice and their effects on enzyme activity, we successfully constructed a prokaryotic expression system for heterologous expression of DAAO in vitro. There were total five nucleotide mutations distributed in exons 2, 8, 9, 10 of C57 mice. Three mutations located on exons 8 and 9 were synonymous mutations and had no variation on the encoded amino acid. The remaining two mutations in exons 2 (V64A) and 10 (R295H) were non-synonymous mutations, which might affect enzymatic activity and protein structure of mDAAO. Based on the determination of the kinetic constants and IC50 of mDAAO mutants in vitro, the differences in amino acid levels at these two sites (V64A, R295H) increased the affinity of C57 DAAO with substrate and enhanced its catalytic efficiency. Besides, the IC50 value of C57 DAAO was less than that of Balb/c and other DAAO mutants (SUN: reducted by about 11.9%; CBIO: reducted by about 26.5%), which meant that the affinity of C57 DAAO with CBIO was higher.
