A new method to express oligomerized feruloyl esterase (FAE) in Pichia pastoris GS115 to improve the catalytic efficiency was developed. It was realized by fusing the foldon domain at the C-terminus of FAE, and the fusion protein was purified by histidine tag. Fusion of the feruloyl esterase with the foldon domain resulted spontaneously forming a trimer FAE to improve the catalytic performance. The oligomerized FAE and monomeric FAE were obtained by purification. The apparent molecular weight of the oligomerized FAE was about 110 kDa, while the monomeric FAE about 40 kDa, and the optimum temperature of the oligomerized FAE was 50 °C, which is the same as the monomeric one. The optimal pH of the oligomerized FAE is 5.0, while the optimal pH of the monomer FAE is 6.0. When compared with the monomeric ones, the catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) of the oligomerized FAE increased 7.57-folds. The catalytic constant (kcat) of the oligomerized FAE increased 3.42-folds. The oligomerized FAE induced by foldon have advantages in the catalytic performances, which represents a simple and effective enzyme-engineering tool. The method proposed here for improving the catalytic efficiency of FAE would have great potentials for improving the catalytic efficiency of other enzymes.
