    Example 3: Preparation of Self-Assembly Enzyme System

    [0089] In this example, different self-assembly enzyme systems were prepared. In order to explore an optimal linker length, the assembly efficiency of LGOX-RIAD and KatG-RIDD fused with different linker lengths was analyzed.

    [0090] The self-assembly enzyme systems were prepared as follows: The LGOX-RIAD and KatG-RIDD fusion enzymes with different linker lengths of fused short peptides prepared according to the method in Example 1 were mixed at a molar ratio of 1:2 to prepare a protein solution (that is, a multi-enzyme complex mixed solution), where a concentration of LGOX-RIAD was 1 mg.Math.mL.sup.1. Using the strong specific affinity between the RIAD-RIDD short peptides, the LGOX-RIAD and KatG-RIDD in the mixed solution achieved the self-assembly of LGOX and catalase, forming the self-assembly enzyme system.

    [0091] As shown in Table 2, nine different combinations of the self-assembly enzyme systems were obtained, which was used as experimental groups. A mixed solution (LK) of free enzymes LGOX and KatG was used as a control group, and other conditions were the same as those of the experimental groups. The assembly status of enzyme complexes with different linker lengths of fused short peptides was analyzed using non-reducing SDS-PAGE (FIG. 3) and dynamic light scattering (FIG. 4). Non-reducing SDS-PAGE of the nine combinations all obtained bands of an expected molecular size of about 250 KDa for the tri-enzyme assembly. In LK-1, a peak with a significantly increased radius was observed, with an average radius distribution of 345 nm. Samples LK-7 and LK-8 also showed clear peaks, with an average radius of about 80 nm. A common feature of LK-1, LK-7, and LK-8 was that the corresponding radius of LGOX was almost not distributed, indicating that all LGOX molecules were in an assembled state. Particle size distribution of LK-2, LK-4, LK-5, and LK-6 was uniform, ranging from 5 nm to 250 nm. In LK-3 and LK-9, two distinct overlapping peaks were observed, corresponding to average particle size distribution of about 10.00 nm and 55.75 nm.

    Comparative Example 1

    [0124] According to the method described in Example 1, the C-terminal of LGOX was linked to the short peptides RIAD and RIDD respectively through a (GGGGS).sub.3 linker, and the C-terminal of KatG was linked to the short peptides RIAD and RTDD respectively through a (GGGGS).sub.3 linker, and the crude enzyme activity was measured. The enzymatic activity of resulting crude enzymes was measured. Results are shown in Table 6. SDS-PAGE analysis was also performed, results are shown in FIG. 7.

    [0125] As shown in Table 3 and FIG. 7, LGOX fused with RIDD forms a large amount of inclusion bodies, resulting in a nearly complete loss of enzymatic activity. Therefore, the connection of C-terminal of LGOX with the short peptides RIAD peptide had minimal impact on the enzyme activity.
