Production of high activity <i>Aspergillus niger</i> BCC4525 β-mannanase in <i>Pichia pastoris</i> and its application for mannooligosaccharides production from biomass hydrolysis
<p>A cDNA encoding β-mannanase was cloned from <i>Aspergillus niger</i> BCC4525 and expressed in <i>Pichia pastoris</i> KM71. The secreted enzyme hydrolyzed locust bean gum substrate with very high activity (1625 U/mL) and a relatively high <i>k</i><sub>cat</sub>/<i>K</i><sub><i>m</i></sub> (461 mg<sup>−1</sup> s<sup>−1</sup> mL). The enzyme is thermophilic and thermostable with an optimal temperature of 70 °C and 40% retention of endo-β-1,4-mannanase activity after preincubation at 70 °C. In addition, the enzyme exhibited broad pH stability with an optimal pH of 5.5. The recombinant enzyme hydrolyzes low-cost biomass, including palm kernel meal (PKM) and copra meal, to produce mannooligosaccharides, which is used as prebiotics to promote the growth of beneficial microflora in animals. An <i>in vitro</i> digestibility test simulating the gastrointestinal tract system of broilers suggested that the recombinant β-mannanase could effectively liberate reducing sugars from PKM-containing diet. These characteristics render this enzyme suitable for utilization as a feed additive to improve animal performance.</p> <p>A recombinant β-mannanase from <i>A. niger</i> BCC4525 exhibits high activity. It produces MOS from low-cost biomass and enhance the release of reducing sugars from diet.</p
Characterization of cellulolytic enzyme system of <i>Schizophyllum commune</i> mutant and evaluation of its efficiency on biomass hydrolysis
<p><i>Schizophyllum commune</i> is a basidiomycete equipped with an efficient cellulolytic enzyme system capable of growth on decaying woods. In this study, production of lignocellulose-degrading enzymes from <i>S. commune</i> mutant G-135 (SC-Cel) on various cellulosic substrates was examined. The highest cellulase activities including CMCase, FPase, and β-glucosidase were obtained on Avicel-PH101 while a wider range of enzymes attacking non-cellulosic polysaccharides and lignin were found when grown on alkaline-pretreated biomass. Proteomic analysis of SC-Cel also revealed a complex enzyme system comprising seven glycosyl hydrolase families with an accessory carbohydrate esterase, polysaccharide lyase, and auxiliary redox enzymes. SC-Cel obtained on Avicel-PH101 effectively hydrolyzed all agricultural residues with the maximum glucan conversion of 98.0% using corn cobs with an enzyme dosage of 5 FPU/g-biomass. The work showed potential of SC-Cel on hydrolysis of various herbaceous biomass with enhanced efficiency by addition external β-xylosidase.</p> <p>Enzymatic hydrolysis of alkaline-pretreated biomass by Sc-Cel and yield enhancement by external β-xylosidase (BX).</p
