Academic Editor: Roberto Fernandez-Lafuente Received: 27 July 2016; Accepted: 12 August 2016; Published: 17 August 2016 Abstract: Glycoside hydrolases (GH) are enzymes capable to hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between two carbohydrates or even between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. Because of the increasing interest for industrial applications of these enzymes, the immobilization of GH has become an important development in order to improve its activity, stability, as well as the possibility of its reuse in batch reactions and in continuous processes. In this review, we focus on the broad aspects of immobilization of enzymes from the specific GH families. A brief introduction on methods of enzyme immobilization is presented, discussing some advantages and drawbacks of this technology. We then review the state of the art of enzyme immobilization of families GH1, GH13, and GH70, with special attention on the enzymes β-glucosidase, α-amylase, cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase, and dextransucrase. In each case, the immobilization protocols are evaluated considering their positive and negative aspects. Finally, the perspectives on new immobilization methods are briefly presented. Keywords: enzyme immobilization; glycoside hydrolases; β-glucosidase; α-amylase; cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase; dextransucrase 1. Introduction Carbohydrates are important natural molecules presented in their free moieties or in association in glycoproteins, glycolipids, and polysaccharides, playing fundamental roles in the cell physiology and development of all organisms [1]. The enzymes that cleave or, inversely, mediate the ligation of glycosidic bonds of glycoconjugates, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides can be classified by two different systems. The IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature of the Enzyme Commission (EC) is based on distinct enzymatic activities, substrate specificity and occasionally on their molecular mechanism [2]. In this system, the EC 3.2.1 comprises the enzymes that hydrolyze O- and S-glycosyl compounds and comprises enzymes from EC 3.2.1.1 trough EC 3.2.1.196, with some deletions and reclassifications. The second system of enzyme classifications is based on the carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZy) database (http://www.cazy.org/), where the enzymes are classified into several families based on their amino acid sequence similarities [3,4]. Currently, the Glycoside Hydrolases (GH) family classification from CAZy extends from GH1 to GH135, with 190 different enzyme activities (based on the EC code), mainly glycosidases from EC 3.2.1, but also some glycotransferases from EC 2.4.1. Among the enzymes from the GH families, some, such as amylase, cellulase, pectinase, hemicellulase, glucansucrase, lactase, invertase, and β-glucosidase, are of great interest to various Molecules 2016, 21, 1074; doi:10.3390/molecules21081074 www.mdpi.com/journal/molecules Molecules 2016, 21, 1074 2 of 38 industries.

Molecules 2016, 21, 1074 3 of 38 There are several reviews dealing with enzyme immobilization, explaining in details all advantages and disadvantages of each protocol [10–12,17–19,22–24], chemical [25–27], and genetic [28,29] modifications of enzymes in order to improve immobilization, one-step purification and immobilization of enzymes [30], stabilization of protein quaternary structure by immobilization [31], the effect of different supports on enzyme properties [32–36], as well as the different enzymatic reactors using immobilized enzymes [37,38]. Considering that the focus of this review is to discuss on the immobilization of glycoside hydrolases and the fact that methods of immobilization have been extensively reviewed, in this paper we will attain to present the basic concepts of each type of immobilization, as mentioned before, in order to better elucidate the discussion that will follow. 2.1.

  • Structure, Function, and Regulation of Intestinal Lactase-Phlorizin Hydrolase and Sucrase- Isomaltase in Health and Disease
    Gastrointestinal Functions, edited by Edgard E. Delvin and Michael J. Lentze. Nestle Nutrition Workshop Series, Pediatric Program, Vol. 46. Nestec Ltd.. Vevey/Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Philadelphia © 2001. Structure, Function, and Regulation of Intestinal Lactase-Phlorizin Hydrolase and Sucrase- Isomaltase in Health and Disease Hassan Y. Nairn Department of Physiological Chemistry, School of Veterinary Medicine Hannover, Hannover, Germany Carbohydrates are essential constituents of the mammalian diet. They occur as oligosaccharides, such as starch and cellulose (plant origin), as glycogen (animal origin), and as free disaccharides such as sucrose (plant) and lactose (animal). These carbohydrates are hydrolyzed in the intestinal lumen by specific enzymes to mono- saccharides before transport across the brush border membrane of epithelial cells into the cell interior. The specificity of the enzymes is determined by the chemical structure of the carbohydrates. The monosaccharide components of most of the known carbohydrates are linked to each other in an a orientation. Examples of this type are starch, glycogen, sucrose, and maltose. (3-Glycosidic linkages are minor. Nevertheless, this type of covalent bond is present in one of the major and most essential carbohydrates in mammalian milk, lactose, which constitutes the primary diet source for the newborn. The enzymes implicated in the digestion of carbohydrates in the intestinal lumen are membrane-bound glycoproteins that are expressed at the apical or microvillus membrane of the enterocytes (1-3). In this chapter, the structural and biosynthetic features of the most important disaccharidases, sucrase-isomaltase and lac- tase-phlorizin hydrolase, and the molecular basis of sugar malabsorption (i.e., en- zyme deficiencies) are discussed.

  • Carbohydrate Metabolism
    CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM By Prof. Dr SOUAD M. ABOAZMA MEDICAL BIOCHEMISTRY DEP. Digestion of carbohydrate The principle sites of carbohydrate digestion are the mouth and small intestine. The dietary carbohydrate consist of : • polysaccharides : Starch, glycogen and cellulose • Disaccharides : Sucrose and Lactose • Monosaccharides : Mainly glucose and fructose monosaccharides need no digestion prior to absorption, wherease disaccharides and polysaccharides must be hydrolysed to simple sugars before their absorption. DIGESTION OF CARBOHYDRATE •Salivary amylase partially digests starch and glycogen to dextrin and few maltoses. It acts on cooked starch. •Pancreatic amylase completely digests starch, glycogen, and dextrin with help of 1: 6 splitting enzyme into maltose and few glucose. It acts on cooked and uncooked starch. Amylase enzyme is hydrolytic enzyme responsible for splitting α 1: 4 glycosidic link. •Cellulose is not digested due to absence of β-glucosidase •Maltase, lactase and sucrase are enzymes secreted from intestinal mucosa, which hydrolyses the corresponding disaccharides to produce glucose, fructose, and galactose. •HCl secreted from the stomach can hydrolyse the disaccharides and polysaccharides. ABSORPTION OF MONOSACCHARIDES •Simple absorption (passive diffusion): The absorption depends upon the concentration gradient of sugar between intestinal lumen and intestinal mucosa. This is true for all monosaccharides especially fructose & pentoses. •Facilitative diffusion by Na+-independent glucose transporter system (GLUT5). There are mobile carrier proteins responsible for transport of fructose, glucose, and galactose with their conc. gradient. •Active transport by sodium-dependent glucose transporter system (SGLUT1). In the intestinal cell membrane there is a mobile carrier protein coupled with Na+- K+ pump. The carrier protein has 2 separate sites one for Na+ ,the other for glucose.

  • The Comparison of Commercially Available Β-Galactosidases for Dairy Industry: Review
    FOOD SCIENCE DOI:10.22616/rrd.23.2017.032 THE COMPARISON OF COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE β-GALACTOSIDASES FOR DAIRY INDUSTRY: REVIEW Kristine Zolnere, Inga Ciprovica Latvia University of Agriculture [email protected] Abstract β-Galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) is one of the widely used enzymes for lactose-free milk production and whey permeate treatment. Enzymes can be obtained from microorganisms, plants and animals. Nowadays, microorganisms are becoming an important source for production of commercially available enzymes, which are of great interest and offer several advantages such as easy handling and high production yield. The aim of this review was to summarize findings of research articles on the application of commercially available β-galactosidase preparates in dairy industry, to analyse and compare the most suitable β-galactosidase commercial preparates for lactose hydrolysis. The results showed that the main factor to choose an appropriate β-galactosidase for lactose hydrolysis was reaction condition. Enzymes from microorganisms contain a wide range of optimal pH from 4.0 (Penicillium simplicissimum and Aspergillus niger) to 8.5 (Bacillus subtilis). The greatest commercial potential have enzymes obtained from fungi (Aspergillus oryzae and Aspergillus niger) and yeasts (Kluyveromyces lactis and Kluyveromyces fragilis). Fungal origin enzymes are more suitable for the hydrolysis of lactose in acid whey due to its acidic pH but yeasts origin enzymes for milk and sweet whey. In the study, commercial preparates from different suppliers with the purpose to analyse their lactose hydrolysis potential and give more detailed characteristics of each preparate advantages and drawbacks were also summarized. Key words: β-Galactosidase, lactose hydrolysis, commercial preparates.

Most agricultural wastes are lignocellulosic in nature; a large fraction of it is composed of carbohydrates. Agricultural residues can thus be used for the production of various value-added products, such as industrially important enzymes. Agro-industrial wastes, such as sugar cane bagasse, corn cob and rice bran, have been widely investigated via different fermentation strategies for the production of enzymes. Solid-state fermentation holds much potential compared with submerged fermentation methods for the utilization of agro-based wastes for enzyme production. This is because the physical–chemical nature of many lignocellulosic substrates naturally lends itself to solid phase culture, and thereby represents a means to reap the acknowledged potential of this fermentation method. Recent studies have shown that pretreatment technologies can greatly enhance enzyme yields by several fold.

  • What Is Lactose Intolerance? Lactose Intolerance Means You Have Symptoms Such As Bloating, Diarrhea, and Gas After You Have Milk Or Milk Products
    What is lactose? Lactose* is a sugar found in milk and milk products. The small intestine produces lactase, an enzyme that breaks down lactose. The small intestine is an organ that breaks down the food you eat. Enzymes are proteins that help to cause chemical changes in the body. What is lactose intolerance? Lactose intolerance means you have symptoms such as bloating, diarrhea, and gas after you have milk or milk products. If your small intestine does not produce much lactase, you cannot break down much lactose. Lactose that does not break down goes to your colon. The colon is an organ that absorbs water from stool and changes it from a liquid to a solid form. In your colon, bacteria that normally live in the colon break down the lactose and create fluid and gas, causing you to have symptoms. *See the Pronunciation Guide for tips on how to say the words in bold type. What I need to know about Lactose Intolerance 1 The causes of low lactase in your small intestine can include the following: ● In some people, the small intestine makes less lactase starting at about age 2, which may lead to symptoms of lactose intolerance. Other people start to have symptoms later, when they are teenagers or adults. ● Infection, disease, or other problems that harm the small intestine can cause low lactase levels. Low lactase levels can cause you to become lactose intolerant until your small intestine heals. ● Being born early may cause babies to be lactose intolerant for a short time after they are born.

  • Congenital Lactose Intolerance Is Triggered by Severe Mutations on Both Alleles of the Lactase Gene Lena Diekmann, Katrin Pfeiffer and Hassan Y Naim*
    Diekmann et al. BMC Gastroenterology (2015) 15:36 DOI 10.1186/s12876-015-0261-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Congenital lactose intolerance is triggered by severe mutations on both alleles of the lactase gene Lena Diekmann, Katrin Pfeiffer and Hassan Y Naim* Abstract Background: Congenital lactase deficiency (CLD) is a rare severe autosomal recessive disorder, with symptoms like watery diarrhea, meteorism and malnutrition, which start a few days after birth by the onset of nursing. The most common rationales identified for this disorder are missense mutations or premature stop codons in the coding region of the lactase-phlorizin hydrolase (LPH) gene. Recently, two heterozygous mutations, c.4419C > G (p.Y1473X) in exon 10 and c.5387delA (p.D1796fs) in exon 16, have been identified within the coding region of LPH in a Japanese infant with CLD. Methods: Here, we investigate the influence of these mutations on the structure, biosynthesis and function of LPH. Therefore the mutant genes were transiently expressed in COS-1 cells. Results: We show that both mutant proteins are mannose-rich glycosylated proteins that are not capable of exiting the endoplasmic reticulum. These mutant proteins are misfolded and turnover studies show that they are ultimately degraded. The enzymatic activities of these mutant forms are not detectable, despite the presence of lactase and phlorizin active sites in the polypeptide backbone of LPH-D1796fs and LPH-Y1473X respectively. Interestingly, wild type LPH retains its complete enzymatic activity and intracellular transport competence in the presence of the pathogenic mutants suggesting that heterozygote carriers presumably do not show symptoms related to CLD.

    Assigned Reading: Chapter 55, Chemical Tools for Inhibiting Glycosylation Essentials in Glycobiology, 3rd edition Chapter 57, Glycans in Biotechnology and the Pharmaceutical Industry Essentials in Glycobiology, 3rd edition Chapter 55, Chemical Tools for Inhibiting Glycosylation Essentials in Glycobiology, 3rd edition Chapter 55 Chemical Tools for Inhibiting Glycosylation Authors: Jeffrey D. Esko, Carolyn Bertozzi, and Ronald Schnaar The use of chemical tools to inhibit glycosylation provides a powerful approach for studying glycan functions and serves as a starting point for drug discovery. This chapter discusses various types of inhibitors, including natural products, substrate- based tight-binding inhibitors, glycoside primers, inhibitors found through screening chemical libraries, and examples of rationally designed inhibitors based on three-dimensional structures of enzymes. ADVANTAGES OF INHIBITORS Chapters 44, 45, and 49 describe various natural and induced mutants with defects in glycosylation. These mutants have helped to define genes that encode various transferases and glycosidases, and in some cases alternate biosynthetic pathways have been uncovered. Mutants also provide insights into the function of glycosylation in cells and tissues and models for human inborn errors in metabolism and disease. However, one limitation of studying mutants is that the analyses are usually restricted to the cell or organism from which the mutant strain was isolated. Additionally, many mutations are lethal in animals, which makes the study of the gene in adult animals more difficult. Inhibitors of glycosyltransferases and glycosidases provide another approach for studying glycosylation in cells, tissues, and whole organisms that avoids some of the problems associated with studying mutants. Many of these compounds are small molecules that are taken up readily by a variety of cell types and some can be absorbed through the gut, providing an opportunity for designing drugs to treat human diseases and disorders correlated with altered glycosylation (Chapter 57).

  • LAB Enzymatic Activity of Lactase
    Name Date Block Enzymatic Activity of Lactase OBJECTIVE The purpose of this lab is to explore the properties of the enzyme lactase. By the end of this lab, you should understand the biological function of enzymes and why they are important in the body. You should also examine the specificity of an enzyme to a specific substrate. INTRODUCTION Enzymes are a class of protein molecules that act as biological catalysts. You may already know some properties of chemical catalysts. They increase the rate of a reaction, but are not used up in the reaction. Enzymes share these features with chemical catalysts, but also have some important differences. One of the most important differences is that enzymes are usually much more specific than chemical catalysts. Enzymes recognize particular reactant molecules, called substrates, and convert them into products. In contrast, chemical catalysts usually act on a broad range of reactants. In an enzymatic reaction, the enzyme “recognizes” the substrate by its shape and by the position of its hydrogen bonding sites and binds the substrate to itself at the active site. Once at the active site, the substrate rapidly undergoes the enzyme catalyzed reaction. The enzyme you will be studying in this experiment is lactase, and the reaction it catalyzes is the hydrolysis of the disaccharide lactose into the monosaccharides galactose and glucose. Humans require this enzyme for digestion of lactose found in milk and other dairy products. The medical condition known as lactose intolerance results when the body produces insufficient amounts of lactase to digest the lactose found in these foods.
