In the present study, the CotA protein from Bacillus licheniformis ANSB821 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Apart from the laccase activities, we found that the recombinant CotA could effectively oxidize aflatoxin B-1 in the absence of redox mediators. The K-m, K-cat and V-max values of the recombinant CotA towards aflatoxin B-1 were 60.62 mu M, 0.03 s(-1) and 10.08 mu g min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. CotA-mediated aflatoxin B-1 degradation products were purified and identified to be aflatoxin Q(1) and epi-aflatoxin Q(1). The treatment of human liver cells L-02 with aflatoxin Q(1) and epi-aflatoxin Q(1) did not suppress cell viability and induce apoptosis. Molecular docking simulation revealed that hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interaction played an important role in aflatoxin B-1-CotA stability. These findings in the current study are promising for a possible application of CotA as a novel aflatoxin oxidase in degrading AFB(1) in food.
