Characterization and Application of a New β-Galactosidase Gal42 From Marine Bacterium Bacillus sp. BY02

Abstract: β-Galactosidase plays an important role in medicine and dairy industry. In this study, a new glycoside hydrolase family 42 (GH42) β-galactosidase-encoding gene, gal42, was cloned from a newly isolated marine bacterium Bacillus sp. BY02 and expressed in Escherichia coli. Structural characterization indicated that the encoding β-galactosidase, Gal42, is a homotrimer in solution, and homology modeling indicated that it retains the zinc binding sites of the Cys cluster. The reaction activity of Gal42 was significa… Show more

“…The LacLM heterodimeric Lactobacillus acidophilus R22 β-galactosidase was activated by Mg 2+ which improved both activity and stability suggesting the possible presence of binding sites for Mg 2+ within the active site which might interact with Glu residues and, thus, could contribute to both subunit interactions and global enzyme stabilization. 9,46 Chitin is insoluble in water and organic solvents but could be processed by extensive alkaline deacetylation to obtain a more soluble product called chitosan. The chitin yield from the Achatina shells was 74.64%, while the chitosan yield was 58.60%.…”

“…The activity of β-gal can be estimated by liberating O-nitrophenol (ONP) from O-nitrophenyl-β-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG) as a substrate according to the method characterized by Zhou et al [ 22 ] with some modifications. The reaction was started by adding 0.1 ml of the enzyme solution (in the case of a free enzyme) or 0.1 g of beads (in the case of an immobilized enzyme) to 0.9 ml of 10 mM ONPG solution prepared in phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.0).…”
