Abstract
To harness the diverse industrial applications of cellulase, including its use in the food, pulp, textile, agriculture, and biofuel sectors, this study focused on the high-yield production of a bioactive insect-derived endoglucanase, Monochamus saltuarius glycoside hydrolase family 5 (MsGHF5). MsGHF5 was introduced into the genome of Kluyveromyces lactis to maintain expression stability, and mass production of the enzyme was induced using fed-batch fermentation. After 40 h of cultivation, recombinant MsGHF5 was successfully produced in the culture broth, with a yield of 29,000 U/L, upon galactose induction. The optimal conditions for the activity of purified MsGHF5 were determined to be a pH of 5 and a temperature of 35 °C, with the presence of ferrous ions enhancing the enzymatic activity by up to 1.5-fold. Notably, the activity of MsGHF5 produced in K. lactis was significantly higher than that produced in Escherichia coli, suggesting that glycosylation is crucial for the functional performance of the enzyme. This study highlights the potential use of K. lactis as a host for the production of bioactive MsGHF5, thus paving the way for its application in various industrial sectors.
期刊介绍:
Protein Expression and Purification is an international journal providing a forum for the dissemination of new information on protein expression, extraction, purification, characterization, and/or applications using conventional biochemical and/or modern molecular biological approaches and methods, which are of broad interest to the field. The journal does not typically publish repetitive examples of protein expression and purification involving standard, well-established, methods. However, exceptions might include studies on important and/or difficult to express and/or purify proteins and/or studies that include extensive protein characterization, which provide new, previously unpublished information.
