Project description:Dextransucrases released by certain lactic acid bacteria form glucose polymers with predominantly α-1,6-linkages and may be exploited biotechnologically for the tailored production of polysaccharides with application potential. Despite releasing two closely related dextransucrases, previous studies showed that water kefir borne Liquorilactobacillus (L.) hordei TMW 1.1822 and L. nagelii TMW 1.1827 produce different amounts of polysaccharides with distinct particle sizes (molecular weight and radius of gyration) and molecular architectures. To investigate where these differences originate and thus to provide deeper insights into the functionally diverse nature of polysaccharide formation during water kefir fermentation, we constructed two variants of the L. nagelii dextransucrase-a full-length enzyme and a truncated variant, devoid of a C-terminal glucan-binding domain that reflects the domain architecture of the L. hordei dextransucrase-and applied them at various enzyme concentrations to form dextran over 24 h. The full-length enzyme exhibited a high activity, forming constant amounts of dextran until a four-fold dilution, whereas the truncated variant showed a gradual decrease in activity and dextran formation at an increasing dilution. The application of the full-length enzyme resulted in higher average particle sizes compared to the truncated variant. However, the dilution of the enzyme extracts also led to a slight increase in the average particle size in both enzymes. Neither the domain architecture nor the enzyme concentration had an impact on the structural architecture of the dextrans. The presented results thus suggest that the comparatively higher processivity of the L. nagelii dextransucrase is predominantly caused by the additional C-terminal glucan-binding domain, which is absent in the L. hordei dextransucrase. The average particle size may be influenced, to some extent, by the applied reaction conditions, whereas the structural architecture of the dextrans is most likely caused by differences in the amino acid sequence of the catalytic domain.
