Compound K Production from Red Ginseng Extract by ?-Glycosidase from Sulfolobus solfataricus Supplemented with ?-L-Arabinofuranosidase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus.

ABSTRACT: Ginsenoside compound K (C-K) is attracting a lot of interest because of its biological and pharmaceutical activities, including hepatoprotective, antitumor, anti-wrinkling, and anti-skin aging activities. C-K has been used as the principal ingredient in skin care products. For the effective application of ginseng extracts to the manufacture of cosmetics, the PPD-type ginsenosides in ginseng extracts should be converted to C-K by enzymatic conversion. For increased yield of C-K from the protopanaxadiol (PPD)-type ginsenosides in red-ginseng extract (RGE), the ?-L-arabinofuranoside-hydrolyzing ?-L-arabinofuranosidase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus (CS-abf) was used along with the ?-D-glucopyranoside/?-L-arabinopyranoside-hydrolyzing ?-glycosidase from Sulfolobus solfataricus (SS-bgly) because SS-bgly showed very low hydrolytic activity on the ?-L-arabinofuranoside linkage in ginsenosides. The optimal reaction conditions for C-K production were as follows: pH 6.0, 80°C, 2 U/mL SS-bgly, 3 U/mL CS-abf, and 7.5 g/L PPD-type ginsenosides in RGE. Under these optimized conditions, SS-bgly supplemented with CS-abf produced 4.2 g/L C-K from 7.5 g/L PPD-type ginsenosides in 12 h without other ginsenosides, with a molar yield of 100% and a productivity of 348 mg/L/h. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest concentration and productivity of C-K from ginseng extract ever published in literature.

Project description:The local and global dynamics of the Sulfolobus solfataricus beta-glycosidase were studied by electron spin resonance and time-resolved fluorescence techniques. For electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) investigations, the protein was covalently modified by the maleimido nitroxide spin label, which is specific for cysteine -SH groups, at position 344 and at position 101, where Ser-101 was changed into a cysteine by site-directed mutagenesis. The greater reactivity of exposed Cys-101 suggested the exclusive modification of this amino acid compared with Cys-344. The labeled proteins underwent temperature perturbation in the range 290-335 K and the values of the spin-label rotation correlation frequencies (nu(c)) ranged from 6 x 10(7) to 2 x 10(8) sec(-1) for the protein labeled at position C344 and from 5.62 x 10(7) to 1.10 x 10(8) sec(-1) for the protein labeled at C101. These rotation correlation values are related to the local dynamic characteristics of the protein matrix. The temperature dependence of rotation correlation frequencies expressed in terms of Arrhenius coordinates (log (nu(c)) vs. 1/T) for the protein labeled at C344 exhibited a linear dependence but with a change in the slope at 311 K. For the protein labeled at C101, no change in the slope was observed at the same temperature. General dynamic information was deduced from the analysis of the fluorescence emission decay of the tryptophanyl residues that are present in each region of the protein structure. Fluorescence data analysis highlighted a bimodal distribution of fluorescence lifetimes arising from the contribution of two emitting groups: one consisting of closely clustered tryptophans responsible for the long-lived emission component (7.1 nsec) and the other composed of tryptophans nearer to the protein surface, which can be associated to the short-lived component (2.5 nsec). The temperature dependence of lifetime distribution parameters linked to the long-lived and short-lived components, expressed in Arrhenius coordinates, showed two different points in which the change in the slope occurred (i.e., 328 K and 338 K, respectively). The Arrhenius analysis of data provided the activation energy relative to the conformational changes characterizing the local and global movements running through the protein matrix.
