Abstract

Thermococcus onnurineus NA1 is a hyperthermophilic archaeon that grows optimally at >80°C. The deblocking aminopeptidase (DAP) (TNA1-DAP1) encoded in Ton_1032 of T. onnurineus NA1 is considered a major DAP. However, four genes encoding putative DAP have been identified from a genomic analysis of T. onnurineus NA1. A proteomic analysis revealed that all four DAPs were differentially induced in YPS culture medium and, particularly, two DAPs (TNA1-DAP1 and TNA1-DAP2) were dominantly expressed in T. onnurineus NA1. The biochemical properties and enzyme activity of DAPs induced in an E. coli expression system suggested that the two major DAPs play complementary roles in T. onnurineus NA1.
