β-半乳糖苷酶是广泛使用的食品添加剂,主要用于降解乳制品中的乳糖,缓解乳糖不耐受症状。该研究对实验室保藏菌株马克斯克鲁维酵母的发酵条件进行了优化。在20 g/L半乳糖、20 g/L玉米浆干粉、40 ℃、初始pH 6.5、150 r/min的条件下,粗酶液的酶活力为26.3 U/mL,表明该菌株具有利用廉价碳氮源高效生产β-半乳糖苷酶的潜力。通过DEAE阴离子交换层析进一步纯化得到比活力为124.09 U/mg的纯化酶。纯化后酶的最适温度40 ℃,最适pH 6,Km为5.28 mmol/L,kcat为4.74 s-1。此外,发现该酶受Mg2+的促进,在20~40 ℃表现出优异的热稳定性,40 ℃下30 min仍能保持95.6%的活力。因此,马克斯克鲁维酵母β-半乳糖苷酶比乳酸克鲁维酵母的热稳定性更好,具有潜在的工业应用潜力。
β-Galactosidase is a widely used food additive, primarily used to degrade lactose in dairy products and alleviate symptoms of lactose intolerance. In this study, we optimized the fermentation conditions of Kluyveromyces marxianus, a strain preserved in our laboratory. Under the conditions of 20 g/L galactose, 20 g/L corn steep powder, 40 ℃, initial pH 6.5, and 150 r/min, the crude enzyme displayed an enzyme activity of 26.3 U/mL, indicating that the strain had the potential to efficiently produce β-galactosidase using cheap carbon and nitrogen sources. Further purification via DEAE anion exchange chromatography resulted in a purified enzyme with a specific activity of 124.09 U/mg. The purified enzyme exhibited an optimal temperature of 40 ℃, an optimal pH of 6, a Michaelis constant of 5.28 mmol/L, and a catalytic constant of 4.74 s-1. Additionally, the enzyme was found to be promoted by Mg2+ and exhibited excellent thermal stability between 20-40 ℃, retaining 95.6% activity at 40 ℃ for 30 min. As K. marxianus, which belongs to the same edible strain as Kluyveromyces lactis, its β-galactosidase has better thermal stability than common K. lactis, and has potential industrial application potential.
