Encapsulation in a Bacterial Microcompartment Shell Improves Thermal Stability of a Glycolytic Enzyme

NTNicholas M. Tefft NYNeetu S. Yadav MCMegan C Gruenberg Cross

Key Points

This research aims to examine how encapsulation in bacterial microcompartment shells affects the thermal stability of the glycolytic enzyme TPI.
Utilized variable loading of bacterial microcompartment (BMC) shells for targeted encapsulation of TPI.
Conducted thermal stability assessments of encapsulated versus free TPI.
Encapsulated TPI showed enhanced thermal stability up to 62 °C compared to free TPI.

Abstract

assembly (IVA) for targeted enzyme encapsulation. We achieved variable loading of BMC shells with targeted amounts of TPI and demonstrated enhanced thermal stability of encapsulated TPI versus free TPI up to 62 °C.
