Abstract
Genetically engineered organophosphorus acid anhydrolases (OPAA) with improved catalytic efficiency and relaxed stereospecificity are provided. The variants typically include a mutation at the residue corresponding to H343 of wildtype Alteromonas sp. OPAA. The mutation allows the OPAA enzyme to effectively process both VR enantiomers. The OPAA optionally include one or more mutations selected the residues corresponding to Y212, V342, and I215 of wildtype Alteromonas sp. OPAA which improve the enzyme's catalytic efficiency for VX and VR. A particularly preferred OPAA includes mutations at the residues corresponding Y212F, V342L, I215Y, and H343D relative to wildtype Alteromonas sp. OPAA. Compositions including an effective amount of OPAA to increase hydrolysis of an organophosphate, and methods of use thereof for treating subjects exposed to an organophosphate, or a surface or liquid contaminated with an organophosphate are also provided.
