Structure characterization, antioxidant and emulsifying capacities of exopolysaccharide derived from Tetragenococcus halophilus SNTH-8
International Journal of Biological Macromolecules(2022)
摘要
Tetragenococcus halophilus exopolysaccharides (THPS) are metabolites released by T. halophilus SNTH-8 to resist a high-salt environment. Although many studies have investigated the mechanisms underlying salt tolerance shown by T. halophilus, structural characteristics as well as antioxidant and emulsifying capacities of THPS remain unclear. In this study, we isolated and purified two components, THPS-1 and THPS-2, from T. halophilus SNTH-8. Purified THPS-1 and THPS-2 were composed of arabinose, xylose, fucose, galactose, glucose, and glucuronic acid at a molar ratio of 1.66:38.95:2.11:26.12:29.73:1.43 and 0.46:40.3:0.54:30.8:1.36:25.54, respectively. The average molecular weights of THPS-1 and THPS-2 were 14.98 kDa and 21.03 kDa, respectively. Moreover, the structures of THPS-1 and THPS-2 were investigated via fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), and methyl-ation analysis. THPS-1 was a highly branched polysaccharide with a backbone of alpha-D-(1,4)-Xyl, alpha-D-(1,6)-Glc and alpha-D-Xyl as the terminal, while THPS-2 was a highly branched polysaccharide with a backbone of alpha-D-(1,4)-Xyl and beta-D-GlcA as the terminal. The branches were identified as beta-D-(1,4,6)-Gal and beta-D-(1,6)-Gal. Both THPS-1 and THPS-2 exhibited high antioxidant and emulsifying capacities. Overall, our structural analysis of THPS may further enhance research on natural emulsifiers and antioxidants.
