Abstract: | Chitosanase from Paenibacillus fukuinensis D2 is an attractive enzyme, and it exhibits both chitosanase and β-1, 4 glucanase activities. In our previous study, we generated
P. fukuinensis chitosanase-displaying yeast cells using a yeast cell surface-displaying system. Chitosanase-displaying yeast can be utilized
as a chitosanase cluster without many time-consuming purification steps. In this study, using the system, we have investigated
whether Glu302, which is supposed as a putative proton acceptor, is an essential amino acid residue for exhibiting chitosanase
activity and analyzed the contribution of mutual interaction between Glu302 and Asn312 to the activity. A mutant library in
which Glu302 and Asn312 were comprehensively substituted by the other amino acid residues was constructed on the yeast cell
surface. From the results of chitosanase and β-1, 4 glucanase activity assays, we demonstrated that Glu302 was a proton acceptor
for chitosanase activity, and Asn312 also participated in the hydrolysis of chitosan and cellulose. |
