Fermentation conditions and properties of a chitosanase from Acinetobacter sp. C-17

A species of bacterium with high chitosanase activity was isolated from soil samples in Haiyan City, China, and identified as an Acinetobacter species. This strain, named Acinetobacter sp. strain C-17, produced a chitosanase that was inducible and secreted into the medium. The optimal conditions for enzyme production were cells used to inoculate a medium containing 1% chitosan (pH 7.0) followed by culture at 30 degrees C. The chitosanase activity reached 1.7 U/ml when strain C-17 was incubated in a 250-ml flask under the optimal conditions for 24 h, and reached 2.8 U/ml when cells were incubated in a 3-l fermentor. The optimal pH and temperature for hydrolysis of chitosanase were 7.0 and 36 degrees C, respectively. The chitosanase activity was stable in the pH range of 5-8 and temperature range of 30-40 degrees C. The chitosanase of the strain was extracted by zinc acetate and ammonium sulfate precipitation. The molecular mass was estimated to be 35.4 kDa by SDS-PAGE.     

A high throughput method for rapid screening of chitosanase-producing fungal strain under acidic conditions

A novel high-throughput method was established for rapid screening of a large numbers of Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) mutants with high chitosanase production under acidic culture condition by exploiting the fact that iodine can be used as the indicator to stain chitosan but is ineffective for chitooligosaccharides. The mutant population was generated by irradiating A. fumigatus CICC 2434 with Co⁶⁰-γ rays. Mutants were cultured on acidic plates containing colloidal chitosan and preliminary screened according to diameter of haloes formed around colonies. Then, chitosanase production of the isolates were verified by dinitrosalicylic acid assay. Lastly, molecular masses on enzymolysis products of isolated mutants were rapidly compared by aniline blue plate assay. Using this method, the mutant strain Co-8 was selected, which had chitosanase activity of 24.87 U/mL (increased by 369.2 % as compared to that of its parental strain).Taking together, the method is easy, efficient and particularly suited to rapid screen acidophilic fungal strains with high chitosanase-production.

Biochemical and molecular characterization of a thermostable chitosanase produced by the strain Paenibacillus sp. 1794 newly isolated from compost

Chitosan raises a great interest among biotechnologists due to its potential for applications in biomedical or environmental fields. Enzymatic hydrolysis of chitosan is a recognized method allowing control of its molecular size, making possible its optimization for a given application. During the industrial hydrolysis process of chitosan, viscosity is a major problem; which can be circumvented by raising the temperature of the chitosan solution. A thermostable chitosanase is compatible with enzymatic hydrolysis at higher temperatures thus allowing chitosan to be dissolved at higher concentrations. Following an extensive micro-plate screening of microbial isolates from various batches of shrimp shells compost, the strain 1794 was characterized and shown to produce a thermostable chitosanase. The isolate was identified as a novel member of the genus Paenibacillus, based on partial 16S rDNA and rpoB gene sequences. Using the chitosanase (Csn1794) produced by this strain, a linear time course of chitosan hydrolysis has been observed for at least 6 h at 70 °C. Csn1794 was purified and its molecular weight was estimated at 40 kDa by SDS-PAGE. Optimum pH was about 4.8, the apparent K _m and the catalytic constant k_cat were 0.042 mg/ml and 7,588 min^?1, respectively. The half-life of Csn1794 at 70 °C in the presence of chitosan substrate was >20 h. The activity of chitosanase 1794 varied little with the degree of N-acetylation of chitosan. The enzyme also hydrolyzed carboxymethylcellulose but not chitin. Chitosan or cellulose-derived hexasaccharides were cleaved preferentially in a symmetrical way (“3?+?3”) but hydrolysis rate was much faster for (GlcN)₆ than (Glc)₆. Gene cloning and sequencing revealed that Csn1794 belongs to family 8 of glycoside hydrolases. The enzyme should be useful in biotechnological applications of chitosan hydrolysis, dealing with concentrated chitosan solutions at high temperatures.

Demonstration of catalytic proton acceptor of chitosanase from Paenibacillus fukuinensis by comprehensive analysis of mutant library

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.     

Thermostable chitosanase from Bacillus sp. Strain CK4: cloning and expression of the gene and characterization of the enzyme

A thermostable chitosanase gene from the environmental isolate Bacillus sp. strain CK4, which was identified on the basis of phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence and phenotypic analysis, was cloned, and its complete DNA sequence was determined. The thermostable chitosanase gene was composed of an 822-bp open reading frame which encodes a protein of 242 amino acids and a signal peptide corresponding to a 30-kDa enzyme. The deduced amino acid sequence of the chitosanase from Bacillus sp. strain CK4 exhibits 76.6, 15.3, and 14.2% similarities to those from Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus ehemensis, and Bacillus circulans, respectively. C-terminal homology analysis shows that Bacillus sp. strain CK4 belongs to cluster III with B. subtilis. The gene was similar in size to that of the mesophile B. subtilis but showed a higher preference for codons ending in G or C. The enzyme contains 2 additional cysteine residues at positions 49 and 211. The recombinant chitosanase has been purified to homogeneity by using only two steps with column chromatography. The half-life of the enzyme was 90 min at 80 degrees C, which indicates its usefulness for industrial applications. The enzyme had a useful reactivity and a high specific activity for producing functional oligosaccharides as well, with trimers through hexamers as the major products.     

Purification and Characterization of Three Chitosanase Activities from Bacillus megaterium P1

Bacillus megaterium P1, a bacterial strain capable of hydrolyzing chitosan, was isolated from soil samples. Chitosan-degrading activity was induced by chitosan but not by its constituent d-glucosamine. Extracellular secretion of chitosanase reached levels corresponding to 1 U/ml under optimal conditions. Three chitosan-degrading proteins (chitosanases A, B, and C) were purified to homogeneity. Chitosanase A (43 kilodaltons) was highly specific for chitosan and represented the major chitosan-hydrolyzing species. Chitosanases B (39.5 kilodaltons) and C (22 kilodaltons) corresponded to minor activities and possessed comparable specific activities toward chitosan, chitin, and cellulose. Chitosanase A was active from pH 4.5 to 6.5 and was stable on the basis of activity up to 45 degrees C. The optimum temperature for enzymatic chitosan hydrolysis was 50 degrees C. Kinetic studies on chitosanase A suggest that the enzyme is substrate inhibited. The apparent K(m) and V(max) determined at 22 degrees C and pH 5.6 were 0.8 mg/ml and 280 U/mg, respectively. End products of chitosan hydrolysis by each of the three chitosanases were identified as glucosamine oligomers, similar to those obtained for previously reported chitosanase digestions.     

Two glutamic acids in chitosanase A from Matsuebacter chitosanotabidus 3001 are the catalytically important residues.

Chitosanase is the glycolytic enzyme that hydrolyzes the glucosamine GlcN-GlcN bonds of chitosan. To determine the catalytically important residues of chitosanase A (ChoA) from Matsuebacter chitosanotabidus 3001, we performed both site-directed and random mutagenesis of choA, obtaining 31 mutants. These mutations indicated that Glu-121 and Glu-141 were catalytically important residues, as mutation at these sites to Ala or Asp drastically decreased the enzymatic activity to 0.1-0.3% of that of the wild type enzyme. Glu-141 mutations remarkably decreased kinetic constant k(cat) for hydrolysis of chitosan, meanwhile Glu-121 mutations decreased the activities to undeterminable levels, precluding parameter analysis. No hydrolysis of (GlcN)(6) was observed with the purified Glu-121 mutant and extremely slow hydrolysis with the Glu-141 mutant. We also found that Asp-139, Asp-148, Arg-150, Gly-151, Asp-164, and Gly-280 were important residues for enzymatic activities, although they are not directly involved in catalysis. In addition, mutation of any of the six cysteine residues of ChoA abrogated the enzymatic activity, and Cys-136 and Cys-231 were found to form a disulfide bond. In support of the significance of the disulfide bond of ChoA, chitosanase activity was impaired on incubation with a reducing agent. Thus, ChoA from M. chitosanotabidus 3001 uses two glutamic acid residues as putative catalytic residues and has at least one disulfide bond.
