Molecular cloning and biochemical characterization of a heat-stable type I pullulanase from Thermotoga neapolitana

The gene encoding a type I pullulanase from the hyperthermophilic anaerobic bacterium Thermotoga neapolitana (pulA) was cloned in Escherichia coli and sequenced. The pulA gene from T. neapolitana showed 91.5% pairwise amino acid identity with pulA from Thermotoga maritima and contained the four regions conserved in all amylolytic enzymes. pulA encodes a protein of 843 amino acids with a 19-residue signal peptide. The pulA gene was subcloned and overexpressed in E. coli under the control of the T7 promoter. The purified recombinant enzyme (rPulA) produced a 93-kDa protein with pullulanase activity. rPulA was optimally active at pH 5-7 and 80°C and had a half-life of 88 min at 80°C. rPulA hydrolyzed pullulan, producing maltotriose, and hydrolytic activities were also detected with amylopectin, starch, and glycogen, but not with amylose. This substrate specificity is typical of a type I pullulanase. Thin layer chromatography of the reaction products in the reaction with pullulan and aesculin showed that the enzyme had transglycosylation activity. Analysis of the transfer product using NMR and isoamylase treatment revealed it to be α-maltotriosyl-(1,6)-aesculin, suggesting that the enzyme transferred the maltotriosyl residue of pullulan to aesculin by forming α-1,6-glucosidic linkages. Our findings suggest that the pullulanase from T. neapolitana is the first thermostable type I pullulanase which has α-1,6-transferring activity.     

Cloning, sequencing, and characterization of a heat- and alkali-stable type I pullulanase from Anaerobranca gottschalkii

The gene encoding a type I pullulanase was identified from the genome sequence of the anaerobic thermoalkaliphilic bacterium Anaerobranca gottschalkii. In addition, the homologous gene was isolated from a gene library of Anaerobranca horikoshii and sequenced. The proteins encoded by these two genes showed 39% amino acid sequence identity to the pullulanases from the thermophilic anaerobic bacteria Fervidobacterium pennivorans and Thermotoga maritima. The pullulanase gene from A. gottschalkii (encoding 865 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 98 kDa) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) so that the protein did not have the signal peptide. Accordingly, the molecular mass of the purified recombinant pullulanase (rPulAg) was 96 kDa. Pullulan hydrolysis activity was optimal at pH 8.0 and 70 degrees C, and under these physicochemical conditions the half-life of rPulAg was 22 h. By using an alternative expression strategy in E. coli Tuner(DE3)(pLysS), the pullulanase gene from A. gottschalkii, including its signal peptide-encoding sequence, was cloned. In this case, the purified recombinant enzyme was a truncated 70-kDa form (rPulAg'). The N-terminal sequence of purified rPulAg' was found 252 amino acids downstream from the start site, presumably indicating that there was alternative translation initiation or N-terminal protease cleavage by E. coli. Interestingly, most of the physicochemical properties of rPulAg' were identical to those of rPulAg. Both enzymes degraded pullulan via an endo-type mechanism, yielding maltotriose as the final product, and hydrolytic activity was also detected with amylopectin, starch, beta-limited dextrins, and glycogen but not with amylose. This substrate specificity is typical of type I pullulanases. rPulAg was inhibited by cyclodextrins, whereas addition of mono- or bivalent cations did not have a stimulating effect. In addition, rPulAg' was stable in the presence of 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 20% Tween, and 50% Triton X-100. The pullulanase from A. gottschalkii is the first thermoalkalistable type I pullulanase that has been described.     

Pullulanase type I from Fervidobacterium pennavorans Ven5: cloning, sequencing, and expression of the gene and biochemical characterization of the recombinant enzyme

The gene encoding the type I pullulanase from the extremely thermophilic anaerobic bacterium Fervidobacterium pennavorans Ven5 was cloned and sequenced in Escherichia coli. The pulA gene from F. pennavorans Ven5 had 50.1% pairwise amino acid identity with pulA from the anaerobic hyperthermophile Thermotoga maritima and contained the four regions conserved among all amylolytic enzymes. The pullulanase gene (pulA) encodes a protein of 849 amino acids with a 28-residue signal peptide. The pulA gene was subcloned without its signal sequence and overexpressed in E. coli under the control of the trc promoter. This clone, E. coli FD748, produced two proteins (93 and 83 kDa) with pullulanase activity. A second start site, identified 118 amino acids downstream from the ATG start site, with a Shine-Dalgarno-like sequence (GGAGG) and TTG translation initiation codon was mutated to produce only the 93-kDa protein. The recombinant purified pullulanases (rPulAs) were optimally active at pH 6 and 80 degrees C and had a half-life of 2 h at 80 degrees C. The rPulAs hydrolyzed alpha-1,6 glycosidic linkages of pullulan, starch, amylopectin, glycogen, alpha-beta-limited dextrin. Interestingly, amylose, which contains only alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages, was not hydrolyzed by rPulAs. According to these results, the enzyme is classified as a debranching enzyme, pullulanase type I. The extraordinary high substrate specificity of rPulA together with its thermal stability makes this enzyme a good candidate for biotechnological applications in the starch-processing industry.

Isolation and characterization of a heat-stable pullulanase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus woesei after cloning and expression of its gene in Escherichia coli.

The gene encoding an extremely heat-stable pullulanase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus woesei was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Purification of the enzyme to homogeneity was achieved after heat treatment of the recombinant E. coli cells, affinity chromatography on a maltotriose-coupled Sepharose 6B column, and anion-exchange chromatography on Mono Q. The pullulanase, which was purified 90-fold with a final yield of 15%, is composed of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular mass of 90 kDa. The enzyme is optimally active at 100 degrees C and pH 6.0 and shows 40% activity at 120 degrees C. Enzyme activation up to 370% is achieved in the presence of calcium ions and reducing agents such as beta-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol, whereas N-bromosuccinimide and alpha-cyclodextrin are inhibitory. The high rigidity of the heat-stable enzyme is demonstrated by fluorescence spectroscopic studies in the presence of denaturing agents such as sodium dodecyl sulfate. At temperatures above 80 degrees C, the enzyme seems to switch from the compact to the unfolded form, which is accompanied by an apparent shift in the molecular mass from 45 to 90 kDa.     

A new thermoactive pullulanase from Desulfurococcus mucosus: cloning, sequencing, purification, and characterization of the recombinant enzyme after expression in Bacillus subtilis

The gene encoding a thermoactive pullulanase from the hyperthermophilic anaerobic archaeon Desulfurococcus mucosus (apuA) was cloned in Escherichia coli and sequenced. apuA from D. mucosus showed 45.4% pairwise amino acid identity with the pullulanase from Thermococcus aggregans and contained the four regions conserved among all amylolytic enzymes. apuA encodes a protein of 686 amino acids with a 28-residue signal peptide and has a predicted mass of 74 kDa after signal cleavage. The apuA gene was then expressed in Bacillus subtilis and secreted into the culture fluid. This is one of the first reports on the successful expression and purification of an archaeal amylopullulanase in a Bacillus strain. The purified recombinant enzyme (rapuDm) is composed of two subunits, each having an estimated molecular mass of 66 kDa. Optimal activity was measured at 85 degrees C within a broad pH range from 3.5 to 8.5, with an optimum at pH 5.0. Divalent cations have no influence on the stability or activity of the enzyme. RapuDm was stable at 80 degrees C for 4 h and exhibited a half-life of 50 min at 85 degrees C. By high-pressure liquid chromatography analysis it was observed that rapuDm hydrolyzed alpha-1,6 glycosidic linkages of pullulan, producing maltotriose, and also alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages in starch, amylose, amylopectin, and cyclodextrins, with maltotriose and maltose as the main products. Since the thermoactive pullulanases known so far from Archaea are not active on cyclodextrins and are in fact inhibited by these cyclic oligosaccharides, the enzyme from D. mucosus should be considered an archaeal pullulanase type II with a wider substrate specificity.     

New type of pullulanase from Bacillus stearothermophilus and molecular cloning and expression of the gene in Bacillus subtilis.

A new type of pullulanase which mainly produced panose from pullulan was found in Bacillus stearothermophilus and purified. The enzyme can hydrolyze pullulan efficiently and only hydrolyzes a small amount of starch. When pullulan was used as a substrate, the main product was panose and small amounts of glucose and maltose were simultaneously produced. By using pTB522 as a vector plasmid, the enzyme gene was cloned and expressed in Bacillus subtilis. Since the enzyme from the recombinant plasmid carrier could convert pullulan into not only panose but also glucose and maltose, we concluded that these reactions were due to the single enzyme. The new pullulanase, with a molecular weight of 62,000, was fairly thermostable. The optimum temperature was 60 to 65 degrees C, and about 90% of the enzyme activity was retained even after treatment at 60 degrees C for 60 min. The optimum pH for the enzyme was 6.0.     

Purification, characterization and functional analysis of an endo-arabinanase (AbnA) from Bacillus subtilis

Bacillus subtilis synthesizes at least one arabinanase encoded by the abnA gene that is able to degrade the polysaccharide arabinan. Here, we report the expression in Escherichia coli of the full-length abnA coding region with a His6-tag fused to the C-terminus. The recombinant protein was secreted to the periplasmic space and correctly processed by the E. coli signal peptidase. The substrate specificity of purified AbnA, the physico-chemical properties and kinetic parameters were determined. Functional analysis studies revealed Glu 215 as a key residue for AbnA hydrolytic activity and indicated that in addition to AbnA B. subtilis secretes other enzyme(s) able to degrade linear 1,5-alpha-l-arabinan.     

Cloning and expression of the Clostridium thermosulfurogenes glucose isomerase gene in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis.

The gene that encodes thermostable glucose isomerase in Clostridium thermosulfurogenes was cloned by complementation of glucose isomerase activity in a xylA mutant of Escherichia coli. A new assay method for thermostable glucose isomerase activity on agar plates, using a top agar mixture containing fructose, glucose oxidase, peroxidase, and benzidine, was developed. One positive clone, carrying plasmid pCGI38, was isolated from a cosmid library of C. thermosulfurogenes DNA. The plasmid was further subcloned into a Bacillus cloning vector, pTB523, to generate shuttle plasmid pMLG1, which is able to replicate in both E. coli and Bacillus subtilis. Expression of the thermostable glucose isomerase gene in both species was constitutive, whereas synthesis of the enzyme in C. thermosulfurogenes was inducible by D-xylose. B. subtilis and E. coli produced higher levels of thermostable glucose isomerase (1.54 and 0.46 U/mg of protein, respectively) than did C. thermosulfurogenes (0.29 U/mg of protein). The glucose isomerases synthesized in E. coli and B. subtilis were purified to homogeneity and displayed properties (subunit Mr, 50,000; tetrameric molecular structure; thermostability; metal ion requirement; and apparent temperature and pH optima) identical to those of the native enzyme purified from C. thermosulfurogenes. Simple heat treatment of crude extracts from E. coli and B. subtilis cells carrying the recombinant plasmid at 85 degrees C for 15 min generated 80% pure glucose isomerase. The maximum conversion yield of glucose (35%, wt/wt) to fructose with the thermostable glucose isomerase (10.8 U/g of dry substrate) was 52% at pH 7.0 and 70 degrees C.
