Abstract
The pathogenic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum secretes dipeptidyl peptidase (Dpp) IV enzyme activity and has two putative
DPPIV homologs (HcDPPIVA and HcDPPIVB). We previously showed that HcDPPIVB is the gene responsible for the majority of
secreted DppIV activity in H. capsulatum culture supernatant, while we could not detect any functional contribution from
HcDPPIVA. In order to determine whether HcDPPIVA encodes a functional DppIV enzyme, we expressed HcDPPIVA in Pichia
pastoris and purified the recombinant protein. The recombinant enzyme cleaved synthetic DppIV substrates and had similar
biochemical properties to other described DppIV enzymes, with temperature and pH optima of 42uC and 8, respectively.
Recombinant HcDppIVA cleaved the host immunoregulatory peptide substance P, indicating the enzyme has the potential to
affect the immune response during infection. Expression of HcDPPIVA under heterologous regulatory sequences in H.
capsulatum resulted in increased secreted DppIV activity, indicating that the encoded protein can be expressed and secreted
by its native organism. However, HcDPPIVA was not required for virulence in a murine model of histoplasmosis. This work
reports a fungal enzyme that can function to cleave the immunomodulatory host peptide substance P.
