Abstract

To develop effective and powerful probiotic, Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains producing cellulolytic enzymes were genetically brooded. For the production of exoglucanase, the plasmid pVT-TExo (8.8 kb) was constructed, in which Thermomonosporafusca exoglucanase gene (E3) was under the control of ADHl promoter, and introduced into S. cerevisiae SEY2102. When the transformant, S. cerevisiae SEY2102/pVT-TExo, was cultivated on YPD medium, the total expression level of avicelase reached about 190 unit/l. The secretion efficiency and plasmid stability were about $50\%\;and\;91\%$, respectively. Recombination exoglucanase enzyme bound to avicel better than Clostridium endoglucanase (CelA) and Trichoderma endoglucanase (C4) enzymes. The mixing ratio of E3 and CelA displaying the best synergistic hydrolysis for avicel was observed at 4:1. The mixture of endoglucanase (CelA) and exoglucanase (E3) resulted in 3.2-fold increase of avicelase activity and 2.5-fold enhanced production of sugar production from avicel, compared to the single enzyme treatment.

효과적이고 강력한 효모 생균제를 개발하기 위해, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 균주들 에서 섬유소 분해효소를 유전공학적 방법으로 생산하였다. Thermomonospora fusca 유래의 exoglucanase유전자(E3)를 구성적 ADHl promoter 하류에 subcloning하여 구성적 발현계인 plasmid pVT-TE태(8.8 kb)를 제작하였고, 이를 S. cerevisiae 숙주세포 SEY2102에 형질전환 시켜, YPD에서 배양한 결과, 총 생산된 exoglucanase의 avicelase 활성은 190 unit/l에 도달하였고, 분비효율은 $50\%$, plasmid 안정성은 $91\%$로 나타났다. 재조합 exoglucanase의 양은 Clostridium endoglucanase(CelA)와 Trichoderma endoglucanase(C4) 보다 더 높은 avicel 결합능을 나타냈다. 각 혼합비에 대한 avicel분해에 대한 상승효과와 당 생성은, E3와 CelA의 흔합비가 4:1일 때 가장 좋은 포도당 생성이 관찰되었으며 , endoglucanase(CelA)와 exoglucanase(E3)의 혼합물은, 단독으로 처리했을 때보다, 포도당의 생산은 2.5배 향상되었고, avicelase활성은 결과적으로 3.2배 증가하였다.
