Functional diversity of family 3 β-glucosidases from thermophilic cellulolytic fungus Humicola insolens Y1
The fungus Humicola insolens is one of the most powerful decomposers of crystalline cellulose. However, studies on the β-glucosidases from this fungus remain insufficient, especially on glycosyl hydrolase family 3 enzymes. In the present study, we analyzed the functional diversity of three distant family 3 β-glucosidases from Humicola insolens strain Y1, which belonged to different evolutionary...
متن کاملThe role of Glu87 and Trp89 in the lid of Humicola lanuginosa lipase.
The importance of Glu87 and Trp89 in the lid of Humicola lanuginosa lipase for the hydrolytic activity at the water/lipid interface was investigated by site-directed mutagenesis. It was found that the effect on the hydrolytic activity upon the replacement of Trp89 with Phe, Leu, Gly or Glu was substrate dependent. The Trp89 mutants displayed an altered chain length specificity towards triglycer...
متن کاملThe use of T-DNA insertional mutagenesis to improve cellulase production by the thermophilic fungus Humicola insolens Y1
Humicola insolens is an excellent producer of pH-neutral active, thermostable cellulases that find many industrial applications. In the present study, we developed an efficient Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation system for H. insolens. We transformed plasmids carrying the promoter of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene of H. insolens driving the transcription of gen...
متن کاملSequential Statistical Optimization of Media Components for the Production of Glucoamylase by Thermophilic Fungus Humicola grisea MTCC 352
Glucoamylase is an industrially important enzyme which converts soluble starch into glucose. The media components for the production of glucoamylase from thermophilic fungus Humicola grisea MTCC 352 have been optimized. Eight media components, namely, soluble starch, yeast extract, KH2PO4, K2HPO4, NaCl, CaCl2, MgSO4 ·7H2O, and Vogel's trace elements solution, were first screened for their effec...
متن کاملImpact of the tryptophan residues of Humicola lanuginosa lipase on its thermal stability.
Thermal stability of wild type Humicola lanuginosa lipase (wt HLL) and its two mutants, W89L and the single Trp mutant W89m (W117F, W221H, and W260H), were compared. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed unfolding of HLL at T(d)=74.4 degrees C whereas for W89L and W89m this endotherm was decreased to 68.6 and 62 degrees C, respectively, demonstrating significant contribution of the above T...
