Preparation of Active Chitooligosaccharides with a Novel Chitosanase AqCoA and Their Application in Fungal Disease Protection

Abstract: Enzymes that degrade fungal cell walls and the resulting oligosaccharides are promising weapons to combat plant fungal disease. In this study, we identified a novel endo-chitosanase, AqCoA, from Aquabacterium sp. A7-Y. The enzyme showed a specific activity of 18 U/mg toward 95% deacetylated chitosan at pH 5.0 and 40 °C. AqCoA also showed activity toward sodium carboxymethylcellulose, indicating substrate promiscuity. AqCoA hydrolyzed chitosan into chitooligosaccharides (CoA-COSs) with degrees of polymerization… Show more

“…The EC 50 of M. oryzae and C. higginsianum with COSs-Csn treatment were 4.84 and 8.47 mg/mL, respectively, while the values with COSs-SGY treatment were 6.06 and 9.91 mg/mL, respectively. These results were consistent with previous study showing that COSs exhibited good antifungal activity (Wang et al, 2021b), because the cationic -NH 2 groups of COSs can form ammonium groups by absorbing H + , and then bind to negatively charged components of the microbial cell wall, resulting in agminated microbes and further lysis (Liaqat and Eltem, 2018).…”

“…Among them, DP ≥ 5 was essential for antimicrobial activity of fully deacetylated COS (Li et al, 2014). The growth inhibition rate (27.35%) of M. oryzae with 4 mg/mL COSs-Csn treatment (Figure 5A) was higher than CoA-COSs (20.0%) in a previous study (Wang et al, 2021b); the reason may be related to the difference of DP. COSs-Csn was composed of DP2-6, whereas CoA-COSs consisted of DP3-5.…”

“…Co39) to assess the plant response. The culture of rice, extraction of RNA, and determination of expression levels of the plant resistance genes were performed as described by Wang et al The stable expression OsActin (ABF98567.1) amplified by primer pairs Os Actin-QF/ Os Actin-QR (Table ) was used as an internal control. The expression levels of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes (pathogenesis-related protein 1a ( PR1a ) (AJ278436.1), probenazole-inducible protein ( PBZ1 ) (D38170.1), and chitinase ( CHT1 ) (XM_015788082)) were detected by the primer pairs (PR1a-QF/PR1a-QR, PBZ1-QF/PBZ1-QR, and CHT1-QF/CHT1-QR).…”
