| Abstract: |
PoCel12A, PoCel12B, and PoCel12C are genes that encode glycoside hydrolase family 12 (GH12) enzymes in Penicillium oxalicum. PoCel12A and PoCel12B are typical GH12 enzymes that belong to fungal subfamilies 12-1 and 12-2, respectively. PoCel12C contains a low-complexity region (LCR) domain, which is not found in PoCel12A or PoCel12B and independent of fungal subfamily 12-1 or 12-2. Recombinant enzymes (named rCel12A, rCel12B and rCel12C) demonstrate existing diversity in the substrate specificities. Although most members in GH family 12 are typical endoglucanases and preferentially hydrolyze β-1,4-glucan (e.g., carboxymethylcellulose), recombinant PoCel12A is a non-typical endo-(1-4)-β-glucanase; it preferentially hydrolyzes mix-linked β-glucan (barley β-glucan, β-1,3-1,4-glucan) and slightly hydrolyzes β-1,4-glucan (carboxymethylcellulose). Recombinant PoCel12B possesses a significantly high activity against xyloglucan. A specific activity of rCel12B toward xyloglucan (239 µmol/min/mg) is the second-highest value known. Recombinant PoCel12C shows low activity toward β-glucan, carboxymethylcellulose, or xyloglucan. All three enzymes can degrade phosphoric acid-swollen cellulose (PASC). However, the hydrolysis products toward PASC by enzymes are different: the main hydrolysis products are cellotriose, cellotetraose, and cellobiose for rCel12A, rCel12B, and rCel12C, correspondingly. A synergistic action toward PASC among rCel12A and rCel12B is observed, thereby suggesting a potential application for preparing enzyme cocktails used in lignocellulose hydrolysis.
