D-Fructose dehydrogenase (FDH), a heterotrimeric membrane-bound enzyme, exhibits strong activity in direct electron transfer- (DET-) type bioelectrocatalysis. We constructed a variant (Delta 1cFDH) that lacks 143 amino acid residues involving one heme c moiety (called heme 1c) on the N-terminus of subunit II, and characterized the bioelectrocatalytic properties of Delta 1cFDH using cyclic voltammetry. A clear DET-type catalytic oxidation wave of D-fructose was observed at the Delta 1cFDH-adsorbed Au electrodes. The result clearly indicates that the electrons accepted at the Flavin adenine dinucleotide catalytic center in subunit I are transferred to electrodes via two of the three heme c moieties in subunit II without going through heme lc. In addition, the limiting current density of A1cFDH was one and a half times larger than that of the native FDH in DET-type bioelectrocatalysis. The downsizing protein engineering causes an increase in the surface concentration of the electrochemically effective enzymes and an improvement in the heterogeneous electron transfer kinetics.
