Abstract
Cariogenic biofilms have a matrix rich in exopolysaccharides (EPS), mutans and dextrans, that contribute to caries development. Although several physical and chemical treatments can be employed to remove oral biofilms, those are only partly efficient and use of biofilm-degrading enzymes represents an exciting opportunity to improve the performance of oral hygiene products. In the present study, a member of a glycosyl hydrolase family 66 from Flavobacterium johnsoniae (FjGH66) was heterologously expressed and biochemically characterized. The recombinant FjGH66 showed a hydrolytic activity against an early EPS-containing S. mutans biofilm, and, when associated with a α-(1,3)-glucosyl hydrolase (mutanase) from GH87 family, displayed outstanding performance, removing more than 80% of the plate-adhered biofilm. The mixture containing FjGH66 and Prevotella melaninogenica GH87 α-1,3-mutanase was added to a commercial mouthwash liquid to synergistically remove the biofilm. Dental floss and polyethylene disks coated with biofilm-degrading enzymes also degraded plate-adhered biofilm with a high efficiency. The results presented in this study might be valuable for future development of novel oral hygiene products.

Abstract
A variety of glucosaccharides composed of glucosyl residues can be classified into α- and β-type and have wide application in food and medicine areas. Among these glucosaccharides, β-type, such as cellulose and α-type, such as starch and starch derivatives, both contain 1 → 4 linkages and are well studied. Notably, in past decades also α1 → 6 glucosaccharides obtained increasing attention for unique physiochemical and biological properties. Especially in recent years, α1 → 6 glucosaccharides of different molecular weight distribution have been created and proved to be functional. However, compared to β- type and α1 → 4 glucosaccharides, only few articles provide a systematic overview of α1 → 6 glucosaccharides. This motivated, the present first comprehensive review on structure, function and synthesis of these α1 → 6 glucosaccharides, aiming both at improving understanding of traditional α1 → 6 glucosaccharides, such as isomaltose, isomaltooligosaccharides and dextrans, and to draw the attention to newly explored α1 → 6 glucosaccharides and their derivatives, such as cycloisomaltooligosaccharides, isomaltomegalosaccharides, and isomalto/malto-polysaccharides.

Abstract
We performed whole genome sequence analyses of Agreia sp. D1110 and Microbacterium trichothecenolyticum D2006 that secrete enzymes to produce cyclo-{→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→} (CI4) from dextran. Full-length amino acid sequences of CI4-forming enzymes were identified by matching known N-terminal amino acid sequences with products of the draft genome. Domain searches revealed that the CI4-forming enzymes are composed of Glycoside Hydrolase family 66 (GH66) domain, Carbohydrate Binding Module family 35 (CBM35) domain, and CBM13 domain, categorizing the CI4-forming enzymes in the GH66. Furthermore, the amino acid sequences of the two CI4-forming enzymes were 71% similar to each other and up to 51% similar to cycloisomaltooligosaccharide glucanotransferases (CITases) categorized in GH66. Differences in sequence between the CI4-forming enzymes and the CITases suggest mechanisms to produce specific cycloisomaltooligosaccharides, and whole genome sequence analyses identified a gene cluster whose gene products likely work in concert with the CI4-forming enzymes.

Abstract
Glucanotransferases that can synthesize cyclo-{→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→} (CI4) from dextran were purified to homogeneity from the culture supernatant of Agreia sp. D1110 and Microbacterium trichothecenolyticum D2006. The molecular mass of both enzymes was estimated to be 86 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The glucanotransferase, named CI4-forming enzyme, from Agreia sp. exhibited the highest activity at pH 6.0 and 40 °C. The enzyme was stable on the pH range of 4.6-9.9 and up to 40 °C. On the other hand, the enzyme from M. trichothecenolyticum exhibited the highest activity at pH 5.7 and 40 °C. The enzyme was stable on the pH range of 5.0-6.9 and up to 35 °C. Both enzymes catalyzed 4 reactions, namely, intramolecular α-1,6-transglycosylation (cyclization), intermolecular α-1,6-transglycosylation, hydrolysis of CI4, and coupling reaction. Furthermore, the CI4-forming enzyme produced CI4 from α-1,6-linked glucan synthesized from starch by 6-α-glucosyltransferase. These findings will enable the production of CI4 from starch.

Abstract
Two bacterial strains isolated from soil, namely Agreia sp. D1110 and Microbacterium trichothecenolyticum D2006, were found to produce a novel oligosaccharide. The oligosaccharide was enzymatically produced from dextran using the culture supernatant of Agreia sp. D1110 or M. trichothecenolyticum D2006. LC-MS and NMR analysis identified the novel oligosaccharide as cyclo-{→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→6)-α-d-Glcp-(1→}, which was named cycloisomaltotetraose, and abbreviated as CI4. CI4 was subsequently crystalized and its X-ray crystallographic structure was determined. CI4 crystals were shown to be pentahydrate, with the CI4 molecules in the crystal structure displaying a unique 3D structure, in which two glucosyl residues in the molecule were facing each other. This unique 3D structure was quite different from the 3D structure of known cyclic tetrasaccharides. This is the first report of CI4 molecules and their unique crystal structure.

Abstract
Paenibacillus sp. 598K cycloisomaltooligosaccharide glucanotransferase (CITase), a member of glycoside hydrolase family 66 (GH66), catalyses the intramolecular transglucosylation of dextran to produce CIs with seven or more degrees of polymerization. To clarify the cyclization reaction and product specificity of the enzyme, we determined the crystal structure of PsCITase. The core structure of PsCITase consists of four structural domains: a catalytic (β/α)8-domain and three β-domains. A family 35 carbohydrate-binding module (first CBM35 region of Paenibacillus sp. 598K CITase, (PsCBM35-1)) is inserted into and protrudes from the catalytic domain. The ligand complex structure of PsCITase prepared by soaking the crystal with cycloisomaltoheptaose yielded bound sugars at three sites: in the catalytic cleft, at the joint of the PsCBM35-1 domain and at the loop region of PsCBM35-1. In the catalytic site, soaked cycloisomaltoheptaose was observed as a linear isomaltoheptaose, presumably a hydrolysed product from cycloisomaltoheptaose by the enzyme and occupied subsites -7 to -1. Beyond subsite -7, three glucose moieties of another isomaltooiligosaccharide were observed, and these positions are considered to be distal subsites -13 to -11. The third binding site is the canonical sugar-binding site at the loop region of PsCBM35-1, where the soaked cycloisomaltoheptaose is bound. The structure indicated that the concave surface between the catalytic domain and PsCBM35-1 plays a guiding route for the long-chained substrate at the cyclization reaction.

Abstract
Sugarcane vinegar is produced in various countries of southern Asia. It is also a niche product of the Kagoshima and Okinawa Prefectures in Japan. Turbid compounds are sometimes found in sugarcane vinegar, thereby lowering the market value. In this study, the turbid compounds were precipitated with a 1:2 (v/v) volume of ethanol, and they were identified as α-1,6-glucan using enzymatic digestion tests and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. Moreover, Lactobacillus nagelii was isolated from sugarcane juice, and it produced α-1,6-glucan when grown with sugar. The turbid compounds found in sugarcane vinegar were assumed to be α-1,6-glucan produced from sugar by lactic acid bacteria that exist in sugarcane juice.

Abstract
Cycloisomaltooligosaccharide glucanotransferase (CITase) is a member of glycoside hydrolase family 66 and it produces cycloisomaltooligosaccharides (CIs). Small CIs (CI-7-9) and large CIs (CI-≥10) are designated as oligosaccharide-type CIs (oligo-CIs) and megalosaccharide-type CIs (megalo-CIs) respectively. CITase from Bacillus circulans T-3040 (BcCITase) produces mainly CI-8 with little megalo-CIs. It has two family 35 carbohydrate-binding modules (BcCBM35-1 and BcCBM35-2). BcCBM35-1 is inserted in a catalytic domain of BcCITase and BcCBM35-2 is located at the C-terminal region. Our previous studies suggested that BcCBM35-1 has two substrate-binding sites (B-1 and B-2) [Suzuki et al. (2014) J. Biol. Chem. 289, 12040-12051]. We implemented site-directed mutagenesis of BcCITase to explore the preference for product size on the basis of the 3D structure of BcCITase. Mutational studies provided evidence that B-1 and B-2 contribute to recruiting substrate and maintaining product size respectively. A mutant (mutant-R) with four mutations (F268V, D469Y, A513V and Y515S) produced three times as much megalo-CIs (CI-10-12) and 1.5 times as much total CIs (CI-7-12) as compared with the wild-type (WT) BcCITase. The 3D structure of the substrate-enzyme complex of mutant-R suggested that the modified product size specificity was attributable to the construction of novel substrate-binding sites in the B-2 site of BcCBM35-1 and reactivity was improved by mutation on subsite -3 on the catalytic domain.

Abstract
Bacillus circulans T-3040 cycloisomaltooligosaccharide glucanotransferase belongs to the glycoside hydrolase family 66 and catalyzes an intramolecular transglucosylation reaction that produces cycloisomaltooligosaccharides from dextran. The crystal structure of the core fragment from Ser-39 to Met-738 of B. circulans T-3040 cycloisomaltooligosaccharide glucanotransferase, devoid of its N-terminal signal peptide and C-terminal nonconserved regions, was determined. The structural model contained one catalytic (β/α)8-barrel domain and three β-domains. Domain N with an immunoglobulin-like β-sandwich fold was attached to the N terminus; domain C with a Greek key β-sandwich fold was located at the C terminus, and a carbohydrate-binding module family 35 (CBM35) β-jellyroll domain B was inserted between the 7th β-strand and the 7th α-helix of the catalytic domain A. The structures of the inactive catalytic nucleophile mutant enzyme complexed with isomaltohexaose, isomaltoheptaose, isomaltooctaose, and cycloisomaltooctaose revealed that the ligands bound in the catalytic cleft and the sugar-binding site of CBM35. Of these, isomaltooctaose bound in the catalytic site extended to the second sugar-binding site of CBM35, which acted as subsite -8, representing the enzyme·substrate complex when the enzyme produces cycloisomaltooctaose. The isomaltoheptaose and cycloisomaltooctaose bound in the catalytic cleft with a circular structure around Met-310, representing the enzyme·product complex. These structures collectively indicated that CBM35 functions in determining the size of the product, causing the predominant production of cycloisomaltooctaose by the enzyme. The canonical sugar-binding site of CBM35 bound the mid-part of isomaltooligosaccharides, indicating that the original function involved substrate binding required for efficient catalysis.

Abstract
Bacillus circulans T-3040 cycloisomaltooligosaccharide glucanotransferase (BcCITase) catalyses an intramolecular transglucosylation reaction and produces cycloisomaltooligosaccharides from dextran. BcCITase was overexpressed in Escherichia coli in two different forms and crystallized by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystal of BcCITase bearing an N-terminal His₆ tag diffracted to a resolution of 2.3 Å and belonged to space group P3₁21, containing a single molecule in the asymmetric unit. The crystal of BcCITase bearing a C-terminal His6 tag diffracted to a resolution of 1.9 Å and belonged to space group P2₁2₁2₁, containing two molecules in the asymmetric unit.

Abstract
The metabolism of the storage polysaccharides glycogen and starch is of vital importance to organisms from all domains of life. In bacteria, utilization of these α-glucans requires the concerted action of a variety of enzymes, including glycoside hydrolases, glycoside phosphorylases, and transglycosylases. In particular, transglycosylases from glycoside hydrolase family 13 (GH13) and GH77 play well established roles in α-glucan side chain (de)branching, regulation of oligo- and polysaccharide chain length, and formation of cyclic dextrans. Here, we present the biochemical and tertiary structural characterization of a new type of bacterial 1,4-α-glucan 4-α-glucosyltransferase from GH31. Distinct from 1,4-α-glucan 6-α-glucosyltransferases (EC 2.4.1.24) and 4-α-glucanotransferases (EC 2.4.1.25), this enzyme strictly transferred one glucosyl residue from α(1→4)-glucans in disproportionation reactions. Substrate hydrolysis was undetectable for a series of malto-oligosaccharides except maltose for which transglycosylation nonetheless dominated across a range of substrate concentrations. Crystallographic analysis of the enzyme in free, acarbose-complexed, and trapped 5-fluoro-β-glucosyl-enzyme intermediate forms revealed extended substrate interactions across one negative and up to three positive subsites, thus providing structural rationalization for the unique, single monosaccharide transferase activity of the enzyme.

Abstract
Dextranase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes dextran α-1,6 linkages. Streptococcus mutans dextranase belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 66, producing isomaltooligosaccharides of various sizes and consisting of at least five amino acid sequence regions. The crystal structure of the conserved fragment from Gln(100) to Ile(732) of S. mutans dextranase, devoid of its N- and C-terminal variable regions, was determined at 1.6 Å resolution and found to contain three structural domains. Domain N possessed an immunoglobulin-like β-sandwich fold; domain A contained the enzyme's catalytic module, comprising a (β/α)(8)-barrel; and domain C formed a β-sandwich structure containing two Greek key motifs. Two ligand complex structures were also determined, and, in the enzyme-isomaltotriose complex structure, the bound isomaltooligosaccharide with four glucose moieties was observed in the catalytic glycone cleft and considered to be the transglycosylation product of the enzyme, indicating the presence of four subsites, -4 to -1, in the catalytic cleft. The complexed structure with 4',5'-epoxypentyl-α-d-glucopyranoside, a suicide substrate of the enzyme, revealed that the epoxide ring reacted to form a covalent bond with the Asp(385) side chain. These structures collectively indicated that Asp(385) was the catalytic nucleophile and that Glu(453) was the acid/base of the double displacement mechanism, in which the enzyme showed a retaining catalytic character. This is the first structural report for the enzyme belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 66, elucidating the enzyme's catalytic machinery.
