ABSTRACT
The 1,4-α-glucan branching enzyme (GBE, EC 2.4.1.18) has garnered considerable attention for its ability to increase the degree of branching of starch and retard starch digestion, which has great industrial applications. Previous studies have reported that the N-terminal domain plays an important role in the expression and stability of GBEs. To further increase the catalytic ability of Gt-GBE, we constructed five mutants in the N-terminal domain L19R, L19K, L25R, L25K, and L25A. Specific activities of L25R and L25A were increased by 28.46% and 23.46%, respectively, versus the wild-type Gt-GBE. In addition, the α-1,6-glycosidic linkage ratios of maltodextrin samples treated with L25R and L25A increased to 5.71%, which were significantly increased by 19.96% compared with that of the wild-type Gt-GBE. The results of this study suggest that the N-terminal domain selective modification can improve enzyme catalytic activity, thus further increasing the commercial application of enzymes in food and pharmaceutical industries.
