Sequence analysis revealed that the protein had 59% identity to the β-glucosidases CAA82733, which belongs to glycoside hydrolase family I(GH1). We cloned and expressed the gene in Escherichia coli BL21-Gold(DE3). The recombinant protein(AcBg) had an optimal pH and temperature of 7.0 and 70℃, respectively. The specific activities of AeBg under optimal conditions were 290 and 33 U/rag for p-nitrophenyl-fl-D-glucopyranoside(pNPG) and cellobiose, respectively. AcBg hydrolyzed the oligosaccharide sequentially from the non-reducing end to produce glucose units according to the results of HPLC analysis. AcBg showed high salt tolerance and monosaccharide-stimulation properties. Its activity rose more than 2-fold when 5 mol/L NaC1/KC1 were added. The activity of the β-glucosidase was remarkably enhanced in the presence of 0.2 mol/L D-glucose(increased more than 1.9-fold), 0.1 mol/L a-methyl-D-glucose(increased more than 1.4-fold) and 1.0 mol/L D-xylose(increased more than 1.9-fold). The catalysis kinetics and structural changes in various concentra- tions of glucose were determined. The results indicate that glucose reduces substrate affinity and causes conforma- tional changes.展开更多
