Cloning of the pullulanase gene and overproduction of pullulanase in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella aerogenes.

The pullulanase gene (pul) of Klebsiella aerogenes was cloned into a pBR322 vector in Escherichia coli. Deletion analysis of the recombinant plasmid showed that the pul coding sequence, probably with the regulator gene, was located entirely within a 4.2-kilobase segment derived from the chromosomal DNA of K. aerogenes. E. coli cells carrying the recombinant plasmids produced about three- to sevenfold more pullulanase than did the wild-type strain of K. aerogenes W70. When the cloned cells of E. coli were grown with pullulan or maltose, most pullulanase was produced intracellularly, whereas K. aerogenes produced pullulanase extracellularly. Transfer of the plasmid containing the pul gene into K. aerogenes W70 resulted in about a 20- to 40-fold increase in total production of pullulanase, and the intracellular enzyme level was about 100- to 150-fold higher than that of the parent strain W70. The high level of pullulanase activity in K. aerogenes cells carrying the recombinant plasmid was maintained for at least 2 weeks.

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.

Cloning and expression of keratinase gene in Bacillus megaterium and optimization of fermentation conditions for the production of keratinase by recombinant strain

AIMS: Cloning and expression of keratinase gene in Bacillus megaterium and optimization of fermentation conditions for the production of keratinase by recombinant strain. METHODS AND RESULTS: The keratinase gene with and without leader sequence from the chromosomal DNA of Bacillus licheniformis MKU3 was amplified by PCR and cloned into pET30b and transferred into Escherichia coli BL21. The ker gene without leader sequence only expressed in E. coli and the recombinant strain produced an intracellular keratinase activity of 74.3 U ml(-1). The ker gene was further subcloned into E. coli-Bacillus shuttle vector, pWH1520. Bacillus megaterium ATCC 14945 carrying the recombinant plasmid pWHK3 expressed the ker gene placed under xylA promoter and produced an extracellular keratinase activity of 95 U ml(-1). Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize the fermentation condition and to improve the level of keratinase production by the recombinant strain. A maximum keratinolytic activity of 166.2 U ml(-1) (specific activity, 33.25 U mg(-1)) was obtained in 18 h of the fermentation carried out with an initial inoculum of 0.4 OD600 nm and xylose concentration of 0.75% w/v. CONCLUSIONS: Bacillus licheniformis keratinase was cloned and successfully expressed using T7 promoter in E. coli and xylose inducible expression system in B. megaterium. Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the process parameters, which resulted in a three-fold higher level of keratinase production by the recombinant B. megaterium (pWHK3) than the wild type strain B. licheniformis MKU3. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study suggests that B. megaterium is a suitable host for the expression of cloned genes from heterologous origin. Optimization of fermentation conditions improved the keratinase production by B. megaterium (pWHK3) and suggested that this recombinant strain could be used for the production of keratinase.

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.     

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.
