چکیده
A chitosanase produced constitutively by Bacillus sp. MET 1299 was purified by SP-Sephadex column chromatography. The molecular weight was estimated to be 52 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Optimal enzyme activity was observed at a pH of 5.5 and temperature of 60 degrees C. The purified chitosanase showed high activity on 90% deacetylated colloidal chitosan and beta-glucan, but not on hydrolyzed colloidal chitin, CMC, or their derivatives. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was determined. The cloned full length gene, 1362 bp in size, encoded a single peptide of 453 amino acids and had a conserved amino acid sequence of glycosyl hydrolase family 8. A search of the cDNA sequence with NCBI BLAST showed homology with chitosanase of Bacillus sp. KTCC 0377BP and Bacillus sp. No. 7-M. The recombinant protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified using affinity chromatography and characterized.

Background & Objective: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major causative agent of diarrhea. Enterotoxins and the colonization factors (CFs) are major virulence factors in ETEC infections. The bacterium binds to the intestinal epithelial cell surface through colonization factors and produces enterotoxins that cause excessive fluid and electrolyte secretion in the lumen of the intesti...
