Expression in Pichia pastoris of Thermostable Endo-1,4-β-xylanase from the Actinobacterium Nocardiopsis halotolerans: Properties and Use for Saccharification of Xylan-Containing Products.

ABSTRACT: A gene encoding a polysaccharide-degrading enzyme was cloned from the genome of the bacterium Nocardiopsis halotolerans. Analysis of the amino acid sequence of the protein showed the presence of the catalytic domain of the endo-1,4-β-xylanases of the GH11 family. The gene was amplified by PCR and ligated into the pPic9m vector. A recombinant producer based on Pichia pastoria was obtained. The production of the enzyme, which we called NhX1, was carried out in a 10 L fermenter. Enzyme production was 10.4 g/L with an activity of 927 U/mL. Purification of NhX1 was carried out using Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The purified enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of xylan but not other polysaccharides. Endo-1,4-β-xylanase NhX1 showed maximum activity and stability at pH 6.0-7.0. The enzyme showed high thermal stability, remaining active at 90 °C for 20 min. With beechwood xylan, the enzyme showed K_m 2.16 mg/mL and V_max 96.3 U/mg. The products of xylan hydrolysis under the action of NhX1 were xylobiose, xylotriose, xylopentaose, and xylohexaose. Endo-1,4-β-xylanase NhX1 effectively saccharified xylan-containing products used for the production of animal feed. The xylanase described herein is a thermostable enzyme with biotechnological potential produced in large quantities by P. pastoria.

Project description:Mannans are key components of lignocellulose present in the hemicellulosic fraction of plant primary cell walls. Mannan endo-1,4-beta-mannosidases (1,4-beta-D-mannanases) catalyze the random hydrolysis of beta-1,4-mannosidic linkages in the main chain of beta-mannans. Biodegradation of beta-mannans by the action of thermostable mannan endo-1,4-beta-mannosidase offers significant technical advantages in biotechnological industrial applications, i.e. delignification of kraft pulps or the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass rich in mannan for the production of second generation biofuels, as well as for applications in oil and gas well stimulation, extraction of vegetable oils and coffee beans, and the production of value-added products such as prebiotic manno-oligosaccharides (MOS).A gene encoding mannan endo-1,4-beta-mannosidase or 1,4-beta-D-mannan mannanohydrolase (E.C. 3.2.1.78), commonly termed beta-mannanase, from Aspergillus niger BK01, which belongs to glycosyl hydrolase family 5 (GH5), was cloned and successfully expressed heterologously (up to 243 microg of active recombinant protein per mL) in Pichia pastoris. The enzyme was secreted by P. pastoris and could be collected from the culture supernatant. The purified enzyme appeared glycosylated as a single band on SDS-PAGE with a molecular mass of approximately 53 kDa. The recombinant beta-mannanase is highly thermostable with a half-life time of approximately 56 h at 70 degrees C and pH 4.0. The optimal temperature (10-min assay) and pH value for activity are 80 degrees C and pH 4.5, respectively. The enzyme is not only active towards structurally different mannans but also exhibits low activity towards birchwood xylan. Apparent Km values of the enzyme for konjac glucomannan (low viscosity), locust bean gum galactomannan, carob galactomannan (low viscosity), and 1,4-beta-D-mannan (from carob) are 0.6 mg mL-1, 2.0 mg mL-1, 2.2 mg mL-1 and 1.5 mg mL-1, respectively, while the kcat values for these substrates are 215 s-1, 330 s-1, 292 s-1 and 148 s-1, respectively. Judged from the specificity constants kcat/Km, glucomannan is the preferred substrate of the A. niger beta -mannanase. Analysis by thin layer chromatography showed that the main product from enzymatic hydrolysis of locust bean gum is mannobiose, with only low amounts of mannotriose and higher manno-oligosaccharides formed.This study is the first report on the cloning and expression of a thermostable mannan endo-1,4-beta-mannosidase from A. niger in Pichia pastoris. The efficient expression and ease of purification will significantly decrease the production costs of this enzyme. Taking advantage of its acidic pH optimum and high thermostability, this recombinant beta-mannanase will be valuable in various biotechnological applications.

Project description:BackgroundEndo-1,4-β-mannanase is an enzyme that can catalyze the random hydrolysis of β-1, 4-mannosidic linkages in the main chain of mannans, glucomannans and galactomannans and has a number of applications in different biotechnology industries. Penicillium oxalicum is a powerful hemicellulase-producing fungus (Bioresour Technol 123:117-124, 2012); however, few previous studies have focused on the cloning and expression of the endo-1,4-β-mannanase gene from Penicillium oxalicum.ResultsA gene encoding an acidophilic thermostable endo-1,4-β-mannanase (E.C. 3.2.1.78) from Penicillium oxalicum GZ-2, which belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 5, was cloned and successfully expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115. A high enzyme activity (84.4 U mL(-1)) was detected in the culture supernatant. The recombinant endo-1,4-β-mannanase (rPoMan5A) was tagged with 6 × His at its C-terminus and purified using a Ni-NTA Sepharose column to apparent homogeneity. The purified rPoMan5A showed a single band on SDS-PAGE with a molecular mass of approximately 61.6 kDa. The specific activity of the purified rPoMan5A was 420.9 U mg(-1) using locust bean gum as substrate. The optimal catalytic temperature (10 min assay) and pH value for rPoMan5A are 80 °C and pH 4.0, respectively. The rPoMan5A is highly thermostable with a half-life of approximately 58 h at 60 °C at pH 4.0. The K m and V max values for locust bean gum, konjac mannan, and guar gum are 7.6 mg mL(-1) and 1425.5 μmol min(-1) mg(-1), 2.1 mg mL(-1) and 154.8 μmol min(-1) mg(-1), and 2.3 mg mL(-1) and 18.9 μmol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. The enzymatic activity of rPoMan5A was not significantly affected by an array of metal ions, but was inhibited by Fe(3+) and Hg(2+). Analytical results of hydrolytic products showed that rPoMan5A could hydrolyze various types of mannan polymers and released various mannose and manno-oligosaccharides, with the main products being mannobiose, mannotriose, and mannopentaose.ConclusionOur study demonstrated that the high-efficient expression and secretion of acid stable and thermostable recombinant endo-1, 4-β-mannanase in Pichia pastoris is suitable for various biotechnology applications.
