Up to date, the reported fucosidases generally show poor activities toward the IgG core-fucose, which limits the efficiency of ENGase-catalyzed glycoengineering process. However, EndoS or EndoS2 owns excellent activity and great selectivity towards the N-glycosylation of IgGs, and their non-catalytic domains are deduced to have specific interactions to IgG Fc domain that result in the great activity and selectivity. Herein, we constructed a series fusion protein of AlfC (an α-l-fucosidase fromLactobacillus caseiBL23) with EndoS/S2 non-catalytic domain by replacing the catalytic GH (glycan hydrolase) domain of EndoS/S2 with the AlfC. We found that all these fused AlfCs showed significantly enhanced defucosylation activity toward the deglycosylated IgGs (Fucα1,6GlcNAc-IgG). We also performed the kinetic study of these fusion enzymes, and our results tend to tell that the EndoS-based fusion proteins have higherkcatvalues while the EndoS2-based ones possess lowerKmvalues other than higherkcat. Conclusively, our research provides an effective approach to improve the activity of AlfC and remarkably shortened the defucosylation process within several minutes, which will significantly promote the development of glycoengineered antibodies in the future.
