Abstract: acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a key enzyme used to detect organophosphorus pesticide residues by the enzyme inhibition method. An accidental discovery of a mutant strain with AChE activity was made in our laboratory during the process of AChE expression by Pichia pastoris. The pPIC9K-Drosophila melanogaster acetylcholinesterase (DmAChE)-like expression vector was constructed by codon optimization of this mutant strain, which was transformed into P. pastoris GS115, and positive clones were selected on yeast peptone dextrose (YPD) plate with G418 at 4.0 mg/mL. The GS115-pPIC9K-DmAChE-like strain was subjected to 0.5% methanol induction expression for 120 h, with a protein band at 4.3 kDa found by the tricine-sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) pattern of the fermentation supernatant. After preliminary purification by ammonium sulfate precipitation, the enzyme activity was detected to be 76.9 U/(mL⋅min). In addition, the pesticide sensitivity test proved that DmAChE-like is selective and sensitive to organophosphorus pesticides.
