RESUMO

The glycoside hydrolase family 71 α-1,3-glucanase (Agn1p) of Schizosaccharomyces pombe was expressed in Escherichia coli Rosetta-gami B (DE3). Agn1p (0.5 nmol/mL) hydrolyzed insoluble α-1,3-glucan (1%), and about 3.3 mm reducing sugars were released after 1440 min of reaction. The analysis of reaction products by high-performance liquid chromatography revealed that pentasaccharides accumulated in the reaction mixture as the main products, along with a small amount of mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, and hexasaccharides. Soluble glucan was prepared from insoluble α-1,3;1,6-glucan by alkaline and sonication treatment to improve the hydrolytic efficiency. As a result, this solubilized α-1,3;1,6-glucan maintained a solubilized state for at least 6 h. Agn1p (0.5 nmol/mL) hydrolyzed the solubilized α-1,3;1,6-glucan (1%), and about 8.2 mm reducing sugars were released after 240 min of reaction. Moreover, Agn1p released about 12.3 mm reducing sugars from 2% of the solubilized α-1,3;1,6-glucan.

RESUMO

The glycoside hydrolase (GH) 71 α-1,3-glucanase (Agn1p) from Schizosaccharomyces pombe consists of an N-terminal signal sequence and a catalytic domain. Meanwhile, the GH87 α-1,3-glucanase (Agl-KA) from Bacillus circulans KA-304 consists of an N-terminal signal sequence, a first discoidin domain (DS1), a carbohydrate-binding module family 6 (CBM6), a threonine and proline repeat linker (TP), a second discoidin domain (DS2), an uncharacterized domain, and a catalytic domain. DS1, CBM6, and DS2 exhibit α-1,3-glucan binding activity. This study involved genetically fusing TP, DS1, CBM6, TP, and DS2 to the C-terminus of Agn1p, generating the fusion enzyme Agn1p-DCD. The fusion enzyme was then expressed in Escherichia coli and purified from the cell-free extract. Agn1p-DCD and Agn1p exhibited similar characteristics, such as optimal pH, optimal temperature, pH stability, and thermostability. Insoluble α-1,3-glucan (1%) hydrolyzing assay showed that Agn1p-DCD and Agn1p released approximately 7.6 and 5.0 mM of reducing sugars, respectively, after 48 h of reaction. Kinetic analysis and an α-1,3-glucan binding assay indicated that the addition of DS1, CBM6, and DS2 enhanced the affinity of Agn1p for α-1,3-glucan. Moreover, Agn1p-DCD contributed to enhancing the fungal growth inhibition activity when combined with a mixture of GH19 chitinase and GH16 ß-1,3-glucanase.

RESUMO

The α-1,3-glucanase Agl-EK14 from Flavobacterium sp. EK-14 comprises a signal peptide (SP), a catalytic domain (CAT), a first immunoglobulin-like domain (Ig1), a second immunoglobulin-like domain (Ig2), a ricin B-like lectin domain (RicinB), and a carboxy-terminal domain (CTD). SP and CTD are predicted to be involved in extracellular secretion, while the roles of Ig1, Ig2, and RicinB are unclear. To clarify their roles, domain deletion enzymes Agl-EK14ΔRicinB, Agl-EK14ΔIg2RicinB, and Agl-EK14ΔIg1Ig2RicinB were constructed. The insoluble α-1,3-glucan hydrolytic, α-1,3-glucan binding, and fungal cell wall hydrolytic activities of the deletion enzymes were almost the same and lower than those of Agl-EK14. Kinetic analysis revealed that the Km values of the deletion enzymes were similar and uniformly higher than those of Agl-EK14. These results suggest that the deletion of RicinB causes a decline in binding and hydrolytic activity and increases the Km value. To confirm the role of RicinB, Ig1, Ig2, and RicinB were fused with green fluorescent protein (GFP). As a result, RicinB-fused GFP (GFP-RicinB) showed binding to insoluble α-1,3-glucan and Aspergillus oryzae cell walls, whereas Ig1- and Ig2-fused GFP did not. These results indicated that RicinB is involved in α-1,3-glucan binding. The fusion protein GFP-Ig1Ig2RicinB was also constructed and GFP-Ig1Ig2RicinB showed strong binding to the cell wall of A. oryzae compared to GFP-RicinB. Gel filtration column chromatography suggested that the strong binding was due to GFP-Ig1Ig2RicinB loosely associated with itself.

RESUMO

Nigero-oligosaccharides are α-1,3-linked oligomers of glucose. Glycoside hydrolase 87 type α-1,3-glucanase Agl-KA from Bacillus circulans KA304 is an endo-lytic enzyme that releases nigero-oligosaccharides (tetra-, tri-, and di-saccharide) from α-1,3-glucan. α-1,3-Glucan is insoluble under natural conditions, thus the efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis is low and only 5 mM of reducing sugars were released from 1% glucan by Agl-KA. To improve hydrolytic efficiency, α-1,3-glucan was solubilized by 1 M NaOH and alkaline-solubilized glucan was adjusted to approximately pH 8. As a result, glucan maintained a solubilized state. This alkaline-pretreated α-1,3-glucan (1%) was hydrolyzed by Agl-KA (0.64 nmol/mL) and approximately 11.6 mM of reducing sugars were released at 240 min of reaction. When 0.016, 0.032, and 0.13 nmol/mL enzyme were added, reducing sugar reached approximately 5.1, 7.5, and 9.8 mM, respectively, and reaction mixtures containing 0.016 and 0.032 nmol/mL enzyme gradually became cloudy. Our findings suggest α-1,3-glucan cannot maintain its solubilized state and gradually becomes insoluble. For deletion enzyme of α-1,3-glucan binding domains from Agl-KA (AglΔDCD-UCD) on glucan hydrolysis (2%), reducing sugar concentrations released by AglΔDCD-UCD were almost the same as Agl-KA. These findings suggest that alkaline-pretreated α-1,3-glucan maintains a soluble state during a short time period and that glucan is efficiently hydrolyzed even by α-1,3-glucanase without α-1,3-glucan binding domains.

RESUMO

The glycoside hydrolase (GH) 87 α-1,3-glucanase (Agl-EK14) gene was cloned from the genomic DNA of the gram-negative bacterium Flavobacterium sp. EK14. The gene consisted of 2940 nucleotides and encoded 980 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of Agl-EK14 included a signal peptide, a catalytic domain, a first immunoglobulin-like domain, a second immunoglobulin-like domain, a ricin B-like lectin domain, and a carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) involved in extracellular secretion. Phylogenetic analysis of the catalytic domain of GH87 enzymes suggested that Agl-EK14 is distinct from known clusters, such as clusters composed of α-1,3-glucanases from bacilli and mycodextranases from actinomycetes. Agl-EK14 without the signal peptide and CTD hydrolyzed α-1,3-glucan, and the reaction residues from 1 and 2% substrates were almost negligible after 1440 min reaction. Agl-EK14 hydrolyzed the cell wall preparation of Aspergillus oryzae and released glucose, nigerose, and nigero-triose from the cell wall preparation. After treatment of A. oryzae live mycelia with Agl-EK14 (at least 0.5 nmol/ml), mycelia were no longer stained by red fluorescent protein-fused α-1,3-glucan binding domains of α-1,3-glucanase Agl-KA from Bacillus circulans KA-304. Results suggested that Agl-EK14 can be applied to a fungal cell wall lytic enzyme.
