One-pot bioconversion of sucrose to trehalose using enzymatic sequential reactions in combined cross-linked enzyme aggregates

초록

Amylosucrase (AS), maltooligosyltrehalose synthase (MTS), and maltooligosyltrehalose trehalohydrolase (MTH) were used in combined cross-linked enzyme aggregates (combi-CLEAs) to achieve one-step bio-conversion of sucrose to trehalose. Combi-CLEAs of three enzymes were successfully established with acetone and glutaraldehyde (GA) as a precipitant and a cross-linker, respectively. The optimum enzyme ratio was 8:0.5:0.5 (AS, 4 mg:MTS, 0.25 mg:MTH, 0.25 mg). To improve trehalose production, bovine serum albumin was co-aggregated with enzymes as a proteic feeder. The trehalose production yield of combi-CLEAs was about 8% in each cycle on the basis of substrate added up to 400 mM. Finally, the combi-CLEAs used in this experiment showed reusability of about five cycles without any activity loss. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
