Characterization of the Paenibacillus beijingensis DSM 24997 GtfD and its glucan polymer products representing a new glycoside hydrolase 70 subfamily of 4,6-α-glucanotransferase enzymes

Abstract: Previously we have reported that the Gram-negative bacterium Azotobacter chroococcum NCIMB 8003 uses the 4,6-α-glucanotransferase GtfD to convert maltodextrins and starch into a reuteran-like polymer consisting of (α1→4) glucan chains connected by alternating (α1→4)/(α1→6) linkages and (α1→4,6) branching points. This enzyme constituted the single evidence for this reaction and product specificity in the GH70 family, mostly containing glucansucrases encoded by lactic acid bacteria (http://www.CAZy.org).

“…Glucansucrases are members of family GH70. Specific glucansucrases may be termed dextransucrases, mutansucrases, alternansucrases, reuteransucrases, α‐1,2‐branching dextransucrases, α‐4,6‐glucanotransferases, or α‐4,3‐glucanotransferases (Bai et al., ; Brison et al., ; Gangoiti, van Leeuwen et al., ; Gangoiti, Lamothe et al., ; Miao et al., ; Song et al., ). Gluansucrases are evolutionary intermediates between enzymes in the GH13 and GH70 families, but their substrate specificities are completely different (Kralj et al., ).…”

“…Amino acid residues that provide a catalytic nucleophile, an acid/base catalyst, and a transition‐state stabilizer and constitute the catalytic site, are present in all glucansucrases (Vujičić‐Žagar et al., ). However, the conserved amino acid residues in regions I, II, III and IV are different in glucansucrases, especially the residues in regions I and IV for the –1, +1 and +2 donor/acceptor substrate‐binding subsites (Gangoiti, Lamothe et al., ).…”

“…The genus Paenibacillus has been reported for production of several industrially important enzymes such as amylase, cellulase, hemicellulase, pectinase, lignin‐modifying enzymes , chitosanase , xylan‐degrading enzymes , 4,6‐α‐glucanotransferase enzymes . The enzymes have been used for many applications in industries such as biofuel, paper, textiles, detergents, food and feed, as well as healthcare.…”
