1. A purified cellulolytic component C(1) was isolated free from associated activities of the cellulase complex and shown to act as a beta-1,4-glucan cellobiohydrolase on both simple and complex forms of native cellulose. 2. The enzyme releases terminal cellobiose units from cellulose, its extent of action being determined principally by the product and by the nature of the substrate. 3. Component C(x) of the cellulase system is not required for the action of component C(1) (cellobiohydrolase). The enzyme synergizes extensively with cellobiase in extending the hydrolysis of native and of less-complex forms of cellulose to at least 70% with the liberation of glucose. 4. The cellobiohydrolase is relatively unstable, with an optimum at pH5 and a K(m) of 0.05mg/ml. The enzyme is inhibited by its product, from which it is released by cellobiase. 5. Of other compounds tested against the cellobiohydrolase the metal ions Cu(2+), Zn(2+), phenylmercuric and Fe(3+) are increasingly effective inhibitors. Glucose has no action at concentrations found inhibitory with cellobiose. 6. The relationship of the enzyme to the entire cellulase complex is discussed.  相似文献

An experimental study of cellobiose inhibition in cellulose hydrolysis by synergism of cellobiohydrolyse I and endoglucanase I is presented. Cellobiose is the structural unit of cellulose molecules and also the main product in enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose. It has been identified that cellobiose can strongly inhibit hydrolysis reaction of cellulase, whereas it has no effect on the adsorption of cellulase on cellulose surface. The experimental data of FT-IR spectra, fluorescence spectrum and circular dichroism suggested that cellobiose can be combined with tryptophan residue located near the active site of cellobiohydrolase and then form steric hindrance, which prevents cellulose molecule chains from diffusing into active site of cellulase. In addition, the molecular conformation of cellobiohydrolase changes after cellobiose binding, which also causes most of the non-productive adsorption. Under these conditions, microfibrils cannot be separated from cellulose chains, thus further hydrolysis of cellulose can hardly proceed.  相似文献

Understanding the enzymatic mechanism that cellulases employ to degrade cellulose is critical to efforts to efficiently utilize plant biomass as a sustainable energy resource. A key component of cellulase action on cellulose is product inhibition from monosaccharide and disaccharides in the product site of cellulase tunnel. The absolute binding free energy of cellobiose and glucose to the product site of the catalytic tunnel of the Family 7 cellobiohydrolase (Cel7A) of Trichoderma reesei (Hypocrea jecorina) was calculated using two different approaches: steered molecular dynamics (SMD) simulations and alchemical free energy perturbation molecular dynamics (FEP/MD) simulations. For the SMD approach, three methods based on Jarzynski's equality were used to construct the potential of mean force from multiple pulling trajectories. The calculated binding free energies, -14.4 kcal/mol using SMD and -11.2 kcal/mol using FEP/MD, are in good qualitative agreement. Analysis of the SMD pulling trajectories suggests that several protein residues (Arg-251, Asp-259, Asp-262, Trp-376, and Tyr-381) play key roles in cellobiose and glucose binding to the catalytic tunnel. Five mutations (R251A, D259A, D262A, W376A, and Y381A) were made computationally to measure the changes in free energy during the product expulsion process. The absolute binding free energies of cellobiose to the catalytic tunnel of these five mutants are -13.1, -6.0, -11.5, -7.5, and -8.8 kcal/mol, respectively. The results demonstrated that all of the mutants tested can lower the binding free energy of cellobiose, which provides potential applications in engineering the enzyme to accelerate the product expulsion process and improve the efficiency of biomass conversion.  相似文献

The enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose and lignocellulosic materials is marked by a rate decrease along the reaction time. Cellobiohydrolase slow dissociation from the substrate and its inhibition by the cellobiose produced are relevant factors associated to the rate decrease. In that sense, addition of β-glucosidases to the enzyme cocktails employed in cellulose enzymatic hydrolysis not only produces glucose as final product but also reduces the cellobiohydrolase inhibition by cellobiose. The digestive β-glucosidase GH1 from the fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda, hereafter called Sfβgly, containing the mutation L428V showed an increased kcat for cellobiose hydrolysis. In comparison to assays conducted with the wild-type Sfβgly and cellobiohydrolase TrCel7A, the presence of the mutant L428V increased in 5 fold the initial rate of crystalline cellulose hydrolysis and reduced to one quarter the time needed to TrCel7A produce the maximum glucose yield. As our results show that mutant L428V complement the action of TrCel7A, the introduction of the equivalent replacement in β-glucosidases is a promising strategy to reduce costs in the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials.  相似文献

Sequence analysis of a Paenibacillus sp. BP-23 recombinant clone coding for a previously described endoglucanase revealed the presence of an additional truncated ORF with homology to family 48 glycosyl hydrolases. The corresponding 3509-bp DNA fragment was isolated after gene walking and cloned in Escherichia coli Xl1-Blue for expression and purification. The encoded enzyme, a cellulase of 1091 amino acids with a deduced molecular mass of 118 kDa and a pI of 4.85, displayed a multidomain organization bearing a canonical family 48 catalytic domain, a bacterial type 3a cellulose-binding module, and a putative fibronectin-III domain. The cloned cellulase, unique among Bacillales and designated Cel48C, was purified through affinity chromatography using its ability to bind Avicel. Maximum activity was achieved at 45 degrees C and pH 6.0 on acid-swollen cellulose, bacterial microcrystalline cellulose, Avicel and cellodextrins, whereas no activity was found on carboxy methyl cellulose, cellobiose, cellotriose, pNP-glycosides or 4-methylumbeliferyl alpha-d-glucoside. Cellobiose was the major product of cellulose hydrolysis, identifying Cel48C as a processive cellobiohydrolase. Although no chromogenic activity was detected from pNP-glycosides, TLC analysis revealed the release of p-nitrophenyl-glycosides and cellodextrins from these substrates, suggesting that Cel48C acts from the reducing ends of the sugar chain. Presence of such a cellobiohydrolase in Paenibacillus sp. BP-23 would contribute to widen up its range of action on natural cellulosic substrates.  相似文献

Endoglucanase 2 (EG2) of the cellulolytic ruminal anaerobe Bacteroides succinogenes is a 118-kilodalton (kDa) enzyme which binds to cellulose and produces cellotetraose as the end product of hydrolysis. The purified enzyme was treated with the protease trypsin in an attempt to isolate peptides which retained the ability to either hydrolyze soluble carboxymethyl cellulose or bind to insoluble cellulose. There was no loss in endoglucanase activity (carboxymethylcellulase) over a period of 2 h following the addition of trypsin. In comparison, there was a greater than eightfold reduction in the binding of carboxymethylcellulase activity to crystalline cellulose. A Lineweaver-Burk plot with amorphous cellulose as the substrate revealed that the trypsin-digested enzyme had an identical Vmax but a 1.9-fold-lower Km in comparison with the intact enzyme. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the trypsin-digested enzyme revealed two major peptides of 43 and 51 kDa (p43 and p51). The 43-kDa peptide was able to bind to both amorphous and crystalline cellulose, whereas p51 did not. Purified p51 had a molar activity toward carboxymethyl cellulose which was identical to that of the intact enzyme, but activity toward both amorphous and crystalline cellulose was reduced approximately twofold. Two high-titer monoclonal antibodies from mice immunized with the intact protein recognized p43 but not p51. The results are consistent with a bifunctional organization of EG2, in which the 118-kDa enzyme is composed of a 51-kDa catalytic domain and a highly antigenic 43-kDa substrate-binding domain. In terms of its domain structure and activity toward cellulose, EG2 is very similar to cellobiohydrolase II of Trichoderma reesei.  相似文献

Cel6D from Paenibacillus barcinonensis is a modular cellobiohydrolase with a novel molecular architecture among glycosyl hydrolases of family 6. It contains an N-terminal catalytic domain (family 6 of glycosyl hydrolases (GH6)), followed by a fibronectin III-like domain repeat (Fn31,2) and a C-terminal family 3b cellulose-binding domain (CBM3b). The enzyme has been identified and purified showing catalytic activity on cellulosic substrates and cellodextrins, with a marked preference for phosphoric acid swollen cellulose (PASC). Analysis of mode of action of Cel6D shows that it releases cellobiose as the only hydrolysis product from cellulose. Kinetic parameters were determined on PASC showing a K m of 68.73 mg/ml and a V max of 1.73 U/mg. A series of truncated derivatives of Cel6D have been constructed and characterized. Deletion of CBM3b caused a notable reduction in hydrolytic activity, while deletion of the Fn3 domain abolished activity, as the isolated GH6 domain was not active on any of the substrates tested. Mutant enzymes Cel6D-D146A and Cel6D-D97A were constructed in the residues corresponding to the putative acid catalyst and to the network for the nucleophilic attack. The lack of activity of the mutant enzymes indicates the important role of these residues in catalysis. Analysis of cooperative activity of Cel6D with cellulases from the same producing P. barcinonensis strain reveals high synergistic activity with processive endoglucanase Cel9B on hydrolysis of crystalline substrates. The characterized cellobiohydrolase can be a good contribution for depolymerization of cellulosic substrates and for the deconstruction of native cellulose.

An amperometric biosensor for the detection of cellobiose has been introduced to study the kinetics of enzymatic hydrolysis of crystalline cellulose by cellobiohydrolase. By use of a sensor in which pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent glucose dehydrogenase was immobilized on the surface of electrode, direct and continuous observation of the hydrolysis can be achieved even in a thick cellulose suspension. The steady-state rate of the hydrolysis increased with increasing concentrations of the enzyme to approach a saturation value and was proportional to the amount of the substrate. The experimental results can be explained well by the rate equations derived from a three-step mechanism consisting of the adsorption of the free enzyme onto the surface of the substrate, the reaction of the adsorbed enzyme with the substrate, and the liberation of the product. The catalytic constant of the adsorbed enzyme was determined to be 0.044+/-0.011s(-1).  相似文献

The exo-loop of Trichoderma reesei cellobiohydrolase Cel7A forms the roof of the active site tunnel at the catalytic centre. Mutants were designed to study the role of this loop in crystalline cellulose degradation. A hydrogen bond to substrate made by a tyrosine at the tip of the loop was removed by the Y247F mutation. The mobility of the loop was reduced by introducing a new disulphide bridge in the mutant D241C/D249C. The tip of the loop was deleted in mutant Delta(G245-Y252). No major structural disturbances were observed in the mutant enzymes, nor was the thermostability of the enzyme affected by the mutations.The Y247F mutation caused a slight k(cat) reduction on 4-nitrophenyl lactoside, but only a small effect on cellulose hydrolysis. Deletion of the tip of the loop increased both k(cat) and K(M) and gave reduced product inhibition. Increased activity was observed on amorphous cellulose, while only half the original activity remained on crystalline cellulose. Stabilisation of the exo-loop by the disulphide bridge enhanced the activity on both amorphous and crystalline cellulose. The ratio Glc(2)/(Glc(3)+Glc(1)) released from cellulose, which is indicative of processive action, was highest with Tr Cel7A wild-type enzyme and smallest with the deletion mutant on both substrates. Based on these data it seems that the exo-loop of Tr Cel7A has evolved to facilitate processive crystalline cellulose degradation, which does not require significant conformational changes of this loop.  相似文献

The kinetics of the hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose (MC) by a Trichoderma reesei cellulase complex and by the individual endoglucanase (pI 4.4–5.2) and cellobiohydrolase (pI 4.0–4.2) has been studied. A flow chart for the enzymatic hydrolysis of the cellulose has been revealed, which formed a basis for a computer simulation of the kinetic regularities observed. As a result of it, the values of the catalytic rate constants for the individual stages of the enzymatic degradation of MC have been calculated. Then, the synergistic behaviour of endoglucanase and cellobiohydrolase in the hydrolysis of MC has been described both quantitatively and graphically. The relative efficiency of the individual stages for the MC hydrolysis in terms of glucose and cellobiose formation for cellulase complexes of various composition has been calculated. It was quantitatively shown that cellobiohydrolase plays the key role in the MC hydrolysis by T. reesei cellulase preparations, because it gives up to 80% glucose and up to 80–90% cellobiose in the presnce of endoglucanase which in turn plays a relatively minor role in a direct formation of both soluble products of the hydrolysis.  相似文献

Abstract A cellobiohydrolase component was isolated from an anaerobic thermophilic cellulolytic bacterium, Clostridium stercorarium . When acting alone, the enzyme showed minimal activity towards ordered substrates such as cellulose and filter paper but it has been shown to attack phosphoric-acid swollen cellulose giving cellobiose as principal product. When recombined with endoglucanase it did allow an extensive hydrolysis demonstrating a marked synergism in the action of those two components; the addition of β-glucosidase resulted in a further increase in activity.  相似文献

The crystalline polymorphic form of cellulose (cellulose I(alpha)-rich) of the green alga, Cladophora, was converted into cellulose III(I) and I(beta) by supercritical ammonium and hydrothermal treatments, respectively, and the hydrolytic rate and the adsorption of Trichoderma viride cellobiohydrolase I (Cel7A) on these products were evaluated by a novel analysis based on the surface density of the enzyme. Cellobiose production from cellulose III(I) was more than 5 times higher than that from cellulose I. However, the amount of enzyme adsorbed on cellulose III(I) was less than twice that on cellulose I, and the specific activity of the adsorbed enzyme for cellulose III(I) was more than 3 times higher than that for cellulose I. When cellulose III(I) was converted into cellulose I(beta) by hydrothermal treatment, cellobiose production was dramatically decreased, although no significant change was observed in enzyme adsorption. This clearly indicates that the enhanced hydrolysis of cellulose III(I) is related to the structure of the crystalline polymorph. Thus, supercritical ammonium treatment activates crystalline cellulose for hydrolysis by cellobiohydrolase.  相似文献

Cellobiohydrolase 58 (Cel7D) is the major cellulase produced by the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, constituting approximately 10 % of the total secreted protein in liquid culture on cellulose. The enzyme is classified into family 7 of the glycosyl hydrolases, together with cellobiohydrolase I (Cel7A) and endoglucanase I (Cel7B) from Trichoderma reesei. Like those enzymes, it catalyses cellulose hydrolysis with net retention of the anomeric carbon configuration.The structure of the catalytic module (431 residues) of Cel7D was determined at 3.0 A resolution using the structure of Cel7A from T. reesei as a search model in molecular replacement, and ultimately refined at 1.32 A resolution. The core structure is a beta-sandwich composed of two large and mainly antiparallel beta-sheets packed onto each other. A long cellulose-binding groove is formed by loops on one face of the sandwich. The catalytic residues are conserved and the mechanism is expected to be the same as for other family members. The Phanerochaete Cel7D binding site is more open than that of the T. reesei cellobiohydrolase, as a result of deletions and other changes in the loop regions, which may explain observed differences in catalytic properties. The binding site is not, however, as open as the groove of the corresponding endoglucanase. A tyrosine residue at the entrance of the tunnel may be part of an additional subsite not present in the T. reesei cellobiohydrolase.The Cel7D structure was used to model the products of the five other family 7 genes found in P. chrysosporium. The results suggest that at least two of these will have differences in specificity and possibly catalytic mechanism, thus offering some explanation for the presence of Cel7 isozymes in this species, which are differentially expressed in response to various growth conditions.  相似文献

The catalytic domain of cellobiohydrolase I from Trichoderma reesei has been obtained by papain treatment of the native enzyme adsorbed onto the surface of microcrystalline cellulose. Both the intact and the truncated enzyme are almost equally active toward soluble fluorogenic derivatives of cellobi-, -tri-, -tetra-, and -pentaose, the fastest and the slowest fluorophore liberation being observed for MUF-cellopenta- and -tetraose, respectively. Titration of the active centers of the intact enzyme and its catalytic domain with MUF-cellotetraose showed their molecular masses to be 49 and 39 kD, respectively, the dissociation constants of the enzyme-soluble ligand complexes being almost equal (65 and 70 nM at 20 degrees C, respectively). In contrast, the intact enzyme and its catalytic core have been shown to significantly (50-60 times) differ in their affinity to insoluble microcrystalline cellulose at low enzyme loading (up to 10 mg per g of the substrate). At 20 degrees C the dissociation constants for the two forms of the enzyme are estimated to be 10 and 500 nM, respectively. Surprisingly, under these conditions the reaction product and inhibitor, cellobiose (Ki = 10 microM), at the concentration 10 mM, increased 3-4-fold the affinity of both the intact cellobiohydrolase and its catalytic domain to cellulose.  相似文献

Cellulose, a polysaccharide of beta-1,4-linked D-glucosyl units, is the major component of plant cell walls and one of the most abundant biopolymers in nature. Cellulases (cellobiohydrolases and endoglucanases) are enzymes that catalyse the hydrolysis of cellulose to smaller oligosaccharides, a process of paramount importance in biotechnology. The thermophilic fungus Melanocarpus albomyces produces a 20 kDa endoglucanase known as 20K-cellulase that has been found particularly useful in the textile industry. The crystal structures of free 20K-cellulase and its complex with cellobiose have been determined at 2.0 A resolution. The enzyme, classified into the glycoside hydrolase family 45, exhibits the characteristic six-stranded beta-barrel found before in Humicola insolens endoglucanase V structure. However, the active site in the 20K-cellulase shows a closing of approximately 2.5-3.5A while a mobile loop identified previously in Humicola insolens endoglucanase V and implicated in the catalytic mechanism is well-defined in 20K-cellulase. In addition, the crystal structure of the cellobiose complex shows a shift in the cellobiose position at the substrate-binding cleft. It is therefore proposed that these alterations may reflect differences in the binding mechanism and catalytic action of the enzyme.  相似文献

Cellobiose oxidase from the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has been purified to homogeneity by a new method. The enzyme has been cleaved by papain into two fragments: one containing the heme group and one containing the flavin group. The flavin fragment can oxidize cellobiose and is reoxidized by oxygen. Cellobiose oxidase binds to cellulose to approximately the same extent as cellobiohydrolase I. The cellulose-binding site is located on the flavin domain. The enzyme cannot be totally displaced from cellulose by cellobiose, and it is still active when adsorbed to cellulose. The possible role of the enzyme in lignocellulose degradation is discussed.  相似文献

Efforts to improve the activity of cellulases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of insoluble cellulose, have been hindered by uncertainty surrounding the mechanistic origins of rate-limiting phenomena and by an incomplete understanding of complementary enzyme function. In particular, direct kinetic measurements of individual steps occurring after enzymes adsorb to the cellulose surface have proven to be experimentally elusive. This work describes an experimental and analytical approach, derived from a detailed mechanistic model of cellobiohydrolase action, for determining rates of initial- and processive-cut product generation by Trichoderma longibrachiatum cellobiohydrolase I (TlCel7A) as it catalyzes the hydrolysis of bacterial microcrystalline cellulose (BMCC) alone and in the presence of Talaromyces emersonii endoglucanase II (TemGH5). This analysis revealed that the rate of TlCel7A-catalyzed hydrolysis of crystalline cellulose is limited by the rate of enzyme complexation with glycan chains, which is shown to be equivalent to the rate of initial-cut product generation. This rate is enhanced in the presence of endoglucanase enzymes. The results confirm recent reports about the role of morphological obstacles in enzyme processivity and also provide the first direct evidence that processive length may be increased by the presence of companion enzymes, including small amounts of TemGH5. The findings of this work indicate that efforts to improve cellobiohydrolase activity should focus on enhancing the enzyme's ability to complex with cellulose chains, and the analysis employed provides a new technique for investigating the mechanism by which companion enzymes influence cellobiohydrolase activity.  相似文献
