S-Adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHase) encoded by sahase gene is a determinant when catalyzing the reversible conversion of adenosine and homocysteine to S-adenosylhomocysteine in most living organisms. The sahase gene was isolated from the genome of the highly thermostable anaerobic bacteria Thermotoga maritima, and then it was cloned, characterized, overexpressed using Escherichia coli, and partially purified by thermal precipitation. The thermal purification of the recombinant SAHase resulted in changes in the circular dichroism spectra. As a result of this analysis, it was possible to determine the structural changes in the composition of the α-helix and β-sheet content of the recombinant enzyme after purification. Moreover, a predicted secondary structure and 3D structural model was rendered by comparative molecular modeling to further understand the molecular function of this protein including its attractive biotechnological use.
