Resumo
A glucoamilase é uma enzima hidrolítica que catalisa a liberação sucessiva de β-D-glicose a partir do amido e oligossacarídeos relacionados. Neste trabalho foram estudadas as glucoamilases de Aspergillus awamori expressas em levedura Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Foram utilizadas duas linhagens alteradas denominadas M1 e M2, e uma linhagem selvagem (WT), utilizada como parâmetros na comparação dos resultados. As enzimas foram produzidas em fermentação submersa, e amidos de diferentes origens vegetais foram utilizados como uma fonte extra de carbono na produção das enzimas. O melhor substrato para a produção da glucoamilase selvagem e da mutante M2 foi o amido de batata com 8,2 e 6,6 U/mL, respectivamente. Para a linhagem M1 foi o amido de mandioca com atividade enzimática de 5,9 U/mL. O amido de milho mostrou ser um substrato menos indicado para a produção destas enzimas. Para a purificação foi preparada uma coluna de afinidade com resina sepharoseTM 6B epóxi ativada ligada a acarbose, onde diferentes concentrações do ligante foram avaliadas. A coluna apresentou boa eficiência no processo de purificação conforme análise por eletroforese SDS-PAGE, com massas moleculares estimada em 100 kDa. A temperatura ótima de atividade das enzimas M1 e M2 foi 65 °C, enquanto que a selvagem teve sua atividade máxima em 60 °C. O pH ótimo de atuação das enzimas foi 4,5. As glucoamilases mutantes apresentaram maior termoestabilidade que a glucoamilase selvagem durante o processo de termoinativação, destacando principalmente a glucoamilase M2. A meia vida a 70 °C foi de 8,1 minutos para a enzima mutante M2, 4,1 minutos para a M1 e 3,0 minutos para a enzima selvagem. A energia de ativação para a desnaturação (Ead) foi de 252,9 e 262,8 KJ mol-1 para as enzimas M1 e M2 respectivamente, e de 234,3 KJ mol-1 para a selvagem. A maior energia dos mutantes indica maior resistência...
Glucoamylase is a hydrolytic enzyme that catalyzes the consecutive liberation of β-D-glucose from starch and related oligosaccharides. In this work glucoamylases from Aspergillus awamori expressed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae were studied. Two mutant strains, denominated M1 and M2, were used and one wild strain (WS) was used as parameter to compare the results. The enzymes were produced in submerged fermentation and starches from different botanical origins were used as extra carbon source for enzyme production. The best substrate for the production of wild glucoamylase and of mutant M2 was potato starch with 8.2 and 6.6 U/mL, respectively. For strain M1 the best substrate was cassava starch with enzymatic activity of 5.9 U/mL. Corn starch revealed to be a less indicated starch for the production of these enzymes. For purification, an affinity column was prepared with activated SepharoseTM 6B epoxy linked to acarbose, and different concentrations of ligand were evaluated. The column exhibited good efficiency during the purification process according to SDS-PAGE analysis, with molecular masses estimated in 100 kDa. Optimum temperature for activities of M1 and M2 enzymes was 65°C, while the wild one exhibited maximum activity at 60°C. Optimum pH for enzyme action was 4.5. Mutant glucoamylases presented higher thermostability than wild glucoamylase during the thermoinactivation process, with M2 standing out. Half life at 70°C was of 8.1 minutes for mutant enzyme M2, 4.1 minutes for M1 and 3.0 minutes for wild enzyme. Activation energy for denaturation (Ead) was 252.9 and 262.8 KJ mol-1 for enzymes M1 and M2 respectively, and 234.3 KJ mol-1 for the wild one. The higher energy of the mutants indicates higher resistance of the protein structure, since more energy is required for the molecule to enter a transition and unfolding state. Thermodynamic parameter ΔG was higher... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
