ABSTRACT
ß-1,3-glucanases can degrade ß-1,3-glucoside bonds in ß-glucan which is the main cell-wall component of most of fungi, and have the crucial application potential in plant protection and food processing. Herein, a ß-1,3-glucanase FlGluA from Flavobacterium sp. NAU1659 composed of 333 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 36.6 kDa was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21, purified and characterized. The deduced amino acid sequence of FlGluA showed the high identity with the ß-1,3-glucanase belonging to glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 16. Enzymological characterization indicated FlGluA had the highest activity on zymosan A, with a specific activity of 3.87 U/mg, followed by curdlan (1.16 U/mg) and pachymaran (0.88 U/mg). It exhibited optimal catalytic activity at the pH 5.0 and 40 °C, and was stable when placed at 4 °C for 12 h in the range of pH 3.0-8.0 or at a temperature below 50 °C for 3 h. Its catalytic activity was enhanced by approximately 36 % in the presence of 1 mM Cr3+. The detection of thin-layer chromatography and mass spectrometry showed FlGluA hydrolyzed zymosan A mainly to glucose and disaccharide, and trace amounts of tetrasaccharide and pentasaccharide, however, it had no action on laminaribiose, indicating its endo-ß-1,3-glucanase activity. The mycelium growth of F. oxysporum treated by FlGluA was inhibited, with approximately 37 % of inhibition rate, revealing the potential antifungal activity of the enzyme. These results revealed the hydrolytic properties and biocontrol activity of FlGluA, laying a crucial foundation for its potential application in agriculture and industry.
