Secretory production in Escherichia coli of a GH46 chitosanase from Chromobacterium violaceum, suitable to generate antifungal chitooligosaccharides
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL MACROMOLECULES(2020)
摘要
A chitosanase (CvCsn46) from Chromobacterium violaceum ATCC 12472 was produced in Escherichia coli, purified, and partially characterized. When subjected to denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the enzyme migrated as two protein bands (38 and 36 kDa apparent molecular masses), which were both identified as CvCsn46 by mass spectrometry. The enzyme hydrolyzed colloidal chitosan, with optimum catalytic activity at 50 degrees C, and two optimumpH values (at pH 6.0 and pH 11.0). The chitosanolytic activity of CvCsn46was enhanced by some ions (Ca2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Sr2+, Mn2+) and DTT, whereas Fe2+, SDS and beta-mercaptoethanol completely inhibited its activity. CvCsn46 showed a non-Michaelis-Menten kinetics, characterized by a sigmoidal velocity curve (R-2 = 0.9927) and a Hill coefficient of 3.95. ESI- MS analysis revealed that the hydrolytic action of CvCsn46 on colloidal chitosan generated a mixture of low molecular mass chitooligosaccharides, containing from 2 to 7 hexose residues, as well as D-glucosamine. The chitosan oligomers generated by CvCsn46 inhibited in vitro themycelial growth of Lasiodiplodia theobromae, significantly reducing myceliumextension and inducing hyphal morphological alterations, as observed by scanning electronmicroscopy. CvCsn46 was characterized as a versatile biocatalyst that produces well-defined chitooligosaccharides, which have potential to control fungi that cause important crop diseases. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V.
