The list of linear and branched IMOS described IMOS production in the literature includes isomaltose, isomaltotriose, Industrial production of IMOS frequently uses starch isomaltotetraose, panose, isopanose, linear panose series, as the substrate and the combined action of different glucose-maltotriose, nigerose, nigerotriose, kojibose, glycoside hydrolases (GH) enzymes with amylolytic, centose, and isomalto/maltooligosaccharides [6-22]. branching or transferase activity, yielding a complex An important group of cyclic isomaltooligosaccharides mixture of α-glucosides [32-34]. An alternative process (CIs) are those formed by glucose units bonded only to obtaining linear or branched IMOS with defined by α-1,6-linkages, also called cyclodextrans. The DP of composition is enzymatic synthesis, using maltose or cyclodextrans ranges from 7 to 12 [4,23-27]. In addition sucrose as substrates and the catalytic action of GH to cyclodextrans, there are CIs with both α-1,6 and α-1,4- enzymes with transferase activity [6,8,9,11,12,14,16,20]. In linkages, like the cyclic maltosylmaltose (CMM) [28,29], the case of CIs, most of them are produced from dextran or with both α-1,6 and α-1,3-linkages, such as the cyclic with the concourse of cycloisomaltooligosaccharide tetrasaccharide (CTS) cyclo{-6)-α-d-Glcp-1,3-α-d-Glcp- glucanotransferases (CITases) [23,24]. 1,6-α-d-Glcp-1,3-α-d-Glcp-(1-} and its branched variants It should be pointed out that the transferases used for 4-O-α-d-glucopyranosyl-CTS and 3-O-α-isomaltosyl-CTS IMOS synthesis are not “glycosyl transferases” labelled [30,31].

Chemical diversity of IMOS and related oligosaccharides.

Whereas glycosyl transferases are enzymes GH13_31) and dextransucrases (GH70).

From a structural point hand, CIs are produced by CITases (GH66) using dextran of view, in this kind of enzymes the distance between the as the substrate. In this work, structural and functional two carboxylic catalytic residues (either aspartic acid or aspects of relevant enzymes from these GH families, able glutamic acid) is around 5 Å [36]. Hydrolysis occurs in to synthesize IMOS as a result of a dual hydrolytic and two steps. In the first one (glycosylation), the acid/base transglycosylating activity, are described. residue (acting as acid) protonates the oxygen of the glycosidic linkage, while the nucleophile residue breaks the linkage by acting on the anomeric carbon and forms 3 Family GH31 a covalent enzyme-glycoside intermediate.

This glycosyl moiety is released keeping the configuration of enzyme (Fig. 2A) is composed by four protein domains: the original substrate [37,38]. Transglycosylation, as an an N-terminal β-sandwich, a (β/α) -barrel (i.e. TIM-barrel) alternative to hydrolysis, occurs when instead of water, 8 catalytic domain, a proximal C-terminal domain and a other molecule with an OH functional group, such as a distal C-terminal domain, both with a β-fold.

Hydrolysis called N-loop [20]. and transglycosylation reactions are performed by GH31 enzymes use maltose as the substrate to the same enzyme. The competition between the two produce IMOS with different chemical constitutions. mechanisms basically depends on the enzyme’s nature The α-glucosidases from Aspergillus niger (ANG), and the concentration of potential substrates in the Aspergillus oryzae (AOG) and Schwanniomyces reaction environment. The catalytic pocket of the enzyme occidentalis (SOG) synthesize isomaltose and panose harbours different binding subsites for each of the glycosyl as the main transglycosylation

Under certain environmental conditions, it has massive outbreaks, resulting in attacks of healthy trees, becoming a forest pest. It has been proposed that the bark beetle’s microbiome plays a key role in the insect’s ecology, providing nutrients, inhibiting pathogens, and degrading tree defense compounds, among other probable traits. During a study of bacterial associates from I. typographus, we isolated three strains identified as Pseudomonas from different beetle life stages. In this work, we aimed to reveal the taxonomic status of these bacterial strains and to sequence and annotate their genomes to mine possible traits related to a role within the bark beetle holobiont.

It shares 42-59% of amino acid sequence identity with common cyclomaltodextrinase (CDase)-family enzymes. The corresponding gene was cloned by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the dimeric enzyme with C-terminal 6-histidines was successfully overproduced and purified from recombinant Escherichia coli. BHCD showed the highest activity against β-CD at pH 7.0 and 50oC. Due to its versatile hydrolysis and transglycosylation activities, BHCD has been confirmed as a member of CDases. However, BHCD can be distinguished from other typical CDases on the basis of its novel multisubstrate specificity. While typical CDases have over 10 times higher activity on β-CD than starch or pullulan, the CD-hydrolyzing activity of BHCD is only 2.3 times higher than pullulan.

Newkome ___________________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT Trichoderma reesei RUT-C30 was cultivated in shaker flasks and pH-controlled, agitated batch fermentations to study the effects of soy-based media on the production of cellulase, xylanase, and pectinase (polygalacturonase) for the purposes of soybean polysaccharide hydrolysis. Growth on defatted soybean flour as sole nitrogen source was compared to the standard combination of ammonium sulfate, proteose peptone, and urea. Carbon source effect was also examined for a variety of substrates, including lactose, microcrystalline cellulose (Avicel), citrus pectin, soy molasses, soy flour hydrolysate, and soybean hulls (both pretreated and natural). Flask study results indicated exceptional enzyme induction by Avicel and soybean hulls, while citrus pectin, soy molasses, and soy flour hydrolysate did not promote enzyme production. Batch fermentation experiments reflected the flask system results, showing the highest cellulase and xylanase activities for systems grown with Avicel and soybean hulls at near-neutral pH levels, and the highest polygalacturonase activity resulting from growth on lactose and soybean hulls at lower pH levels, 4.0 to 4.5.

  • Is There Hidden Sugar in Your Drink?
    Is There Hidden Sugar in Your Drink? Anjali Shankar 9th Grade Moravian Academy Upper School June 5th, 2020 Motivation - I have a big passion for the medical field, showed by last year’s project. - Food labels and nutrition have caught my eye and are important when eating. How do glucose levels Research in different drinks change after adding Question an invertase enzyme? Given that the invertase enzyme breaks down sucrose, glucose levels will rise after adding the enzyme because the sucrose will convert to Hypothesis glucose and fructose. Coca Cola will have the most glucose because it has the most calories of each drink. Glucose - Chemical compound in the body - C6H12O6 - Comes from food and drink - Generally rich in sugars/carbohydrates - Used for many purposes: - Used to make energy (ATP) in cellular respiration - Stores energy - Used to build carbohydrates Chemical Reaction - A chemical reaction transfers a set of compounds into another - Reactants: Enter into a chemical reaction - Products: Compounds produced by the reaction - Catalyst: Speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction - Enzyme: Biological catalysts; usually proteins The formula for this experiment is: Invertase Sucrose + Water Glucose + Fructose Invertase C12H22O11 + H20 C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 In the Body - The most common sugar is eaten as sucrose. - Also known as table sugar - It is broken down in the body into glucose and fructose through a chemical reaction during digestion. - Fructose: Contains the same elements as glucose, but has a different chemical construction - Often used to make more glucose - The reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme named sucrase. - Modeled by invertase in experiment - The pancreas monitors blood sugar, or amount of glucose in the body.
