  • Agency Response Letter GRAS Notice No. GRN 000675
    . Janet Oesterling Novozymes North America, Inc. 77 Perry Chapel Church Road Franklinton, NC 27525 Re: GRAS Notice No. GRN 000675 Dear Ms. Oesterling: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, we) completed our evaluation of GRN 000675. We received the notice, dated October 10, 2016, that you submitted in accordance with the agency’s proposed regulation, proposed 21 CFR 170.36 (62 FR 18938; April 17, 1997; Substances Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS); the GRAS proposal) on July 17, 2016, and filed it on October 14, 2016. We received amendments containing clarifying information on February, 22, 2017 and March 09, 2017. FDA published the GRAS final rule on August 17, 2016 (81 FR 54960), with an effective date of October 17, 2016. As GRN 000675 was pending on the effective date of the GRAS final rule, we requested some additional information consistent with the format and requirements of the final rule. We received an amendment responding to this request on October 24, 2016. The subject of the notice is xylanase enzyme preparation produced by Trichoderma reesei carrying a xylanase gene from Talaromyces leycettanus (xylanase enzyme preparation). The notice informs us of the view of Novozymes North America, Inc. (Novozymes) that xylanase enzyme preparation is GRAS, through scientific procedures, for use as an enzyme at levels up to 48.33 mg Total Organic Solids (TOS) per kg raw material in brewing, cereal beverage processing, baking, and processing of cereal grains such as corn, wheat, barley, and oats. Commercial enzyme preparations that are used in food processing typically contain an enzyme component that catalyzes the chemical reaction as well as substances used as stabilizers, preservatives, or diluents.

  • THE ALPHA-GALACTOSIDASE SUPERFAMILY: SEQUENCE BASED CLASSIFICATION of ALPHA-GALACTOSIDASES and RELATED GLYCOSIDASES Naumoff D.G
    COMPUTATIONAL STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL PROTEOMICS THE ALPHA-GALACTOSIDASE SUPERFAMILY: SEQUENCE BASED CLASSIFICATION OF ALPHA-GALACTOSIDASES AND RELATED GLYCOSIDASES Naumoff D.G. State Institute for Genetics and Selection of Industrial Microorganisms, Moscow, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: α-galactosidase, melibiase, glycoside hydrolase, GH-D clan, GH31 family, GHX family, COG1649, enzyme classification, protein family, protein phylogeny Summary Motivation: About 1 % of genes in genomes code enzymes with glycosidase activities. On the basis of sequence similarity all known glycosidases have been classified into 90 families. In many cases proteins of different families have common evolution origin. It makes necessary to combine the corresponding families into a superfamily. Results: Using of the PSI-BLAST program we found significant sequence similarity of several glycosidase families, two of which includes enzymes with the α galactosidase activity. Sequence homology, common catalytic mechanism, folding similarities, and composition of the active center allowed us to group three of these families – GH27, GH31, and GH36 – into the α-galactosidase superfamily. Phylogenetic analysis of this superfamily revealed polyphyletic origin of GH36 family, which could be divided into four families. Glycosidases of the α-galactosidase superfamily have a distant relationship with proteins belonging to families GH13, GH70, and GH77 of glycosidases, as well as with two families of predicted glycosidases. Introduction Glycoside hydrolases or glycosidases (EC 3.2.1.-) are a widespread group of enzymes, hydrolyzing the glycosidic bonds between two carbohydrates or between a carbohydrate and an aglycone moiety. A large multiplicity of these enzymes is a consequence of the extensive variety of their natural substrates: di-, oligo-, and polysaccharides.

Mutants of ArthβDG: D207A and E517Q were designed to determine the significance of specific residues and to enable formation of complexes with lactulose and sucrose and to shed light onto the structural basis of the transglycosylation reaction. The catalytic assays proved loss of function mutation E517 into glutamine and a significant drop of activity for mutation of D207 into alanine. Solving crystal structures of two new mutants, and new complex structures of previously presented mutant E441Q enables description of introduced changes within active site of enzyme and determining the importance of mutated residues for active site size and character.

It is widely used in different applications Accepted 5 December 2016 based on its physicochemical properties associated with its molecular weight. Enzymatic digestion by Available online 6 December 2016 polysaccharides lyases is one of the most important ways to decrease the molecular weight of HA. Thus, it is important to understand the action patterns of lyases acting on HA.
