Abstract

Thermostable proteins are of prime importance in protein science, but it has remained difficult to develop general strategies for stabilizing a protein. Site-directed mutagenesis based on comparisons with thermophilic homologs is rarely successful because the sequence differences are too numerous and dominated by neutral mutations. Here we used a method of directed evolution to increase the stability of a mesophilic protein, the cold shock protein Bs-CspB from Bacillus subtilis. It differs from its thermophilic counterpart Bc-Csp from Bacillus caldolyticus at 12 surface-exposed positions. To elucidate the stabilizing potential of exposed amino acid residues, six of these variant positions were randomized by saturation mutagenesis, the corresponding library of sequences was inserted into the gene-3-protein of the filamentous phage fd, and stabilized variants were selected by the Proside technique. Proside links the increased protease resistance of stabilized protein variants with the infectivity of the phage. Many strongly stabilized variants of Bs-CspB were identified in two selections, one in the presence of a denaturant and the other at elevated temperature. Several of them are significantly more stable than the naturally thermostable homolog Bc-Csp, and the best variant reaches Tm-Csp (the homolog from the hyperthermophile Thermotoga maritima) in stability. Remarkably, this variant differs from Tm-Csp at five and from Bc-Csp at all six randomized positions. This indicates that proteins can be strongly stabilized by many different sets of surface mutations, and Proside selects them efficiently from large libraries. The course of the selection could be directed by the conditions. In an ionic denaturant non-polar surface interactions were optimized, whereas at elevated temperature variants with improved electrostatics were selected, pointing to two different strategies for stabilization at protein surfaces.
