The integration of multicopper oxidases with electrodes enables exploitation of the substantial activity of these biocatalysts for the reduction of molecular oxygen. To date, many different strategies have been explored for the fabrication of bioelectrodes, aiming at a stable and favored orientation of immobilized enzymes for ensuring an adequate biocatalytic performance. In this work, we present electrochemical studies of the hyperthermostable Aquifex aeolicus multicopper oxidase (McoA) spontaneously adsorbed over gold surfaces. An extremely simple enzyme immobilization strategy is used, taking advantage of the protein structure, which integrates a loop rich in methionine residues (Met-loop) close to the active site. As a result, enzyme orientation for efficient direct electron transfer is ensured without requiring any prior electrode modification. Detailed analysis of the electrochemical responses supports a minimal dispersion of the enzyme orientation over the electrode. Moreover, using an enzyme variant obtained by directed evolution that shows a preferential conformation of the Met-loop over the active site in closed states is shown to improve the interaction with the electrode, resulting in enhanced performance. The obtained results highlight avenues for the use of multicopper oxidases under electrochemical communication with electrode surfaces and showcase the possibility of bioelectrochemical performance improvement, not only through stable and oriented enzyme immobilization but also by tuning the protein structure for improved electron transfer.
