Malate dehydrogenase (MDH) catalyzes the reduction of oxaloacetate to L-malate.Geobacillus stearothermophilusMDH (gs-MDH) is used as a diagnostic reagent; however, gs-MDH is robustly inhibited at high substrate concentrations, which limits its reaction rate. Here, we reduced substrate inhibition of gs-MDH by deleting its C-terminal residues. Computational analysis showed that C-terminal residues regulate the position of the active site loop. C-terminal deletions of gs-MDH successfully increasedKivalues by 5- to 8-fold with maintained thermal stability (>90% of the wild-type enzyme), althoughkcat/Kmvalues were decreased by <2-fold. The structure of the mutant showed a shift in the location of the active site loop and a decrease in its volume, suggesting that substrate inhibition was reduced by eliminating the putative substrate binding site causing inhibition. Our results provide an effective method to reduce substrate inhibition of the enzyme without loss of other parameters, including binding and stability constants.
