Versatile peroxidase (VP) from Pleurotus eryngii is a high redox potential peroxidase. It has aroused great biotechnological interest due to its ability to oxidize a wide range of substrates, but its application is still limited due to low pH and thermal stability. Since CiP (Coprinopsis cinerea peroxidase) and PNP (peanut peroxidase) exhibited higher pH and thermal stability than VP, several motifs, which might contribute to their pH and thermal stability, were identified through structure and sequence alignment. Six VP variants incorporating the beneficial motifs were designed and constructed. Most variants were nearly completely inactivated except V1 (Variant 1) and V4. V1 showed comparable activity to WT VP against ABTS, while V4 exhibited reduced activity. V1 displayed improved pH stability than WT VP, at pH 3.0 in particular, whereas the pH stability of V4 did not change a lot. The thermal stabilities of V1 and V4 were enhanced with T50 raised by 3°C. The results demonstrated that variants containing the beneficial motifs of CiP and PNP conferred VP with improved pH and thermal stability.
