Lee HN, Lim HJ, Park JY, Choi JH, Hong SJ, Jang DE, Kim TS, Seong SH, Kim BR, Kim JH, Seo C, Park JH, Jeong JW, Kim YM. Effect of modification methods on the physical properties and immunomodulatory activity of particulate β-glucan. Food Sci Biotechnol 2024; 33:1615-1621. [PMID: 38623421 PMCID: PMC11016045 DOI: 10.1007/s10068-023-01473-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/17/2024] Open
Abstract
β-Glucan is an immunoenhancing agent whose biological activities are linked to molecular structure. On that basis, the polysaccharide can be physiochemically modified to produce valuable functional materials. This study investigated the physical properties and immunostimulatory activity of modified β-glucan. Alkali-treated β-glucan had a distinct shape and smaller particle size than untreated β-glucan. The reduced particle size was conducive to the stability of the suspension because the β-glucan appeared to be completely dissolved by this treatment, forming an amorphous mass. Furthermore, alkali treatment improved the immunostimulating activity of β-glucan, whereas exposure of macrophages to heat-treated β-glucan decreased their immune activity. β-Glucan with reduced particle size by wet-grinding also displayed immunomodulatory activities. These results suggested that the particle size of β-glucan is a key factor in β-glucan-induced immune responses of macrophages. Thus, the modification of the β-glucan particle size provides new opportunities for developing immunoenhancing nutraceuticals or pharmacological therapies in the future.

Abstract
Bacillus clausii is a probiotic that benefits human health. Its key characteristics include the ability to form spores; the resulting tolerance to heat, acid, and salt ensures safe passage through the human gastrointestinal tract with no loss of cells. Although B. clausii has been widely used for many decades, the beneficial properties of other probiotics, such as Lactobacillus spp. and Bifidobacterium spp., are better disseminated in the literature. In this review, we summarize the physiological, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory properties of probiotic B. clausii strains. We also describe findings from studies that have investigated B. clausii probiotics from the perspective of quality and safety. We highlight innovative properties based on biochemical investigations of non-probiotic strains of B. clausii, revealing that B. clausii may have further health benefits in other therapeutic areas.

Gamma-Irradiation-Induced Degradation of the Water-Soluble Polysaccharide from Auricularia polytricha and Its Anti-Hypercholesterolemic Activity. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27031110. [PMID: 35164371 PMCID: PMC8838432 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27031110] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Revised: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
The water-soluble polysaccharides (APPs) isolated from the edible mushroom Auricularia polytricha were irradiated by γ-ray at doses of 10, 100, and 1000 kGy. The effect of gamma irradiation on the degradation of the polysaccharide was investigated. After irradiation treatment, the viscosity and molecular weight of APPs decreased with the increase in the irradiation dose. The changes in the enthalpy of APPs after irradiation treatment were observed. Meanwhile, SEM showed that R-APPs were crushed into fragments and the surfaces became smooth and wrinkled after irradiation. In further spectrum analysis, it was found that the glycoside bonds of the polysaccharides were broken and accompanied by the formation of double bonds. This suggested that gamma irradiation could cause the depolymerization and oxidation of polysaccharides. In addition, irradiated APPs could reduce the body weight of hyperlipidemia mice. The levels of serum and liver TC, TG, and serum LDH-c significantly decreased in hyperlipidemia mice after treatment by irradiated APPs. It indicated that gamma irradiation significantly improved the anti-hypolipidemic activity of APPs. The relationship between the physicochemical properties and hypolipidemic activity of polysaccharides was interpreted, which provides a theoretical basis for the further development of APP products. Gamma irradiation is a viable technology for macromolecular modification for degradation.

Abstract
Marine macroalgae have a very high carbohydrate content due to complex algal polysaccharides (APS) like agar, alginate, and ulvan in their cell wall. Despite numerous reports on their biomedical properties, their hydrocolloid nature limits their applications. Algal oligosaccharides (AOS), which are hydrolyzed forms of complex APS, are gaining importance due to their low molecular weight, biocompatibility, bioactivities, safety, and solubility in water that makes it a lucrative alternative. The AOS produced through enzymatic hydrolysis using microbial enzymes have far-reaching applications because of its stereospecific nature. Identification and characterization of novel microorganisms producing APS hydrolyzing enzymes are the major bottlenecks for the efficient production of AOS. This review will discuss the marine microbial enzymes identified for AOS production and the bioactive potential of enzymatically produced AOS. This can improve our understanding of the biotechnological potential of microbial enzymes for the production of AOS and facilitate the sustainable utilization of algal biomass. Enzymatically produced AOS are shown to have bioactivities such as antioxidant, antiglycemic, prebiotic, immunomodulation, antiobesity or antihypercholesterolemia, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antimicrobial activity. The myriad of health benefits provided by the AOS is the need of the hour as there is an alarming increase in physiological disorders among a wide range of the global population.

Abstract
Global requirement for algal foods is increasing, as they are progressively consumed for its nutrition and health. Macroalgae is a proven source of metabolites, proteins, pigments, bioactive compounds, and algal polysaccharides. The unique polysaccharides such as agar, carrageenan, porphyran, alginate, fucoidan, laminarin, and ulvan are known for its wide range of bioactivities and extensively used for applications from tissue engineering to drug delivery. However, there are few limitations due to its high molecular size, low compatibility, and hydrocolloid nature. Hence, the enzymatically produced algal oligosaccharides have drawn tremendous attention due to its green synthesis, solubility, and lower molecular size. They are reported to have bioactivities including antioxidant, antiglycemic, immunostimulatory, anti-inflammatory, and prebiotic activities, which can be used in the healthcare and nutraceutical industry for the manufacture of functional foods and dietary supplements. However, identification of potential microorganisms, producing polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzymes, remains a major bottle neck for efficient utilization of bioactive algal oligosaccharides. This review summarizes the recent developments in the identification and characterization of microbial enzymes for the production of bioactive algal oligosaccharides. This can improve our understanding of bioactive algal oligosaccharides and pave way for efficient utilization of macroalgae to prevent various chronic diseases.

Abstract
The β-1,3-glucanase gene in Ostrinia furnacalis was first obtained by RT-PCR. The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR showed that the expression level of β-1,3-glucanase in the midgut of O. furnacalis was higher than in other tissues. Moreover, the expression level in the larval stage was higher in egg, pupa, and adult stages. The optimal pH of recombinant O. furnacalis β-1,3-glucanase OfLam to the substrate laminarin was 4.5, and the optimum reaction temperature was 50°C. The enzyme exhibited a KM of 1.59 ± 0.28 mg/mL and a kcat of 15.8 ± 0.66 s-1 . Ostrinia furnacalis β-1,3-glucanase has a similar catalytic efficiency to other insect-derived β-1,3-glucanases. The recombinant OfLam has a broad substrate spectrum and can hydrolyze fungal cell walls, suggesting a new source of enzymes for biological control strategies that target fungal cell walls.

In vitro prebiotic potential, digestibility and biocompatibility properties of laminari-oligosaccharides produced from curdlan by β-1,3-endoglucanase from Clostridium thermocellum. 3 Biotech 2020; 10:241.

Abstract
Curdlan or laminarin, a β-1,3-glucan was hydrolysed by β-1,3-endoglucanase (CtLam81A) from Clostridium thermocellum to produce laminari-oligosaccharides. TLC analysis of hydrolysed curdlan showed the presence of laminari-oligosaccharides of the degree of polymerization, DP2-DP7. This mixture of laminari-oligosaccharides displayed prebiotic properties. Laminari-oligosaccharides showed an increase in the growth of probiotic bacteria such as Lactobacillus plantarum DM5 and Lactobacillus acidophilus, while they did not promote the growth of non-probiotic bacteria (Escherichia coli and Enterobacter aerogenes). Laminari-oligosaccharides showed higher prebiotic activity score of 0.92 ± 0.01 and 0.64 ± 0.08 for L. plantarum DM5 and L. acidophilus NRRL B-4496, respectively, similar to those shown by inulin. Laminari-oligosaccharides showed higher resistance or low digestibility against α-amylase, artificial gastric juice and intestinal fluid than inulin indicating their bioavailability to the probiotic bacteria present in the gastrointestinal tract of human. The probiotic bacteria consumed laminaribiose and laminariotriose more readily than higher laminari-oligosaccharides as carbon source for their growth. The in vitro cytotoxicity assay of laminari-oligosaccharides (1 mg/ml) on human embryonic kidney (HEK 293) cells showed that the cell viability was not affected even after 72 h indicating their biocompatible nature. All the results amply indicated that laminari-oligosaccharides can serve as potential prebiotic additives for functional food products.

Abstract
The fundamental and assorted roles of β-1,3-glucans in nature are underpinned on diverse chemistry and molecular structures, demanding sophisticated and intricate enzymatic systems for their processing. In this work, the selectivity and modes of action of a glycoside hydrolase family active on β-1,3-glucans were systematically investigated combining sequence similarity network, phylogeny, X-ray crystallography, enzyme kinetics, mutagenesis and molecular dynamics. This family exhibits a minimalist and versatile (α/β)-barrel scaffold, which can harbor distinguishing exo or endo modes of action, including an ancillary-binding site for the anchoring of triple-helical β-1,3-glucans. The substrate binding occurs via a hydrophobic knuckle complementary to the canonical curved conformation of β-1,3-glucans or through a substrate conformational change imposed by the active-site topology of some fungal enzymes. Together, these findings expand our understanding of the enzymatic arsenal of bacteria and fungi for the breakdown and modification of β-1,3-glucans, which can be exploited for biotechnological applications.

Abstract
We isolated a laminarin-degrading cold-adapted bacterium strain LA from coastal seawater in Sagami Bay, Japan and identified it as a Pseudoalteromonas species. We named the extracellular laminarinase LA-Lam, and purified and characterized it. LA-Lam showed high degradation activity for Laminaria digitata laminarin in the ranges of 15-50°C and pH 5.0-9.0. The major terminal products degraded from L. digitata laminarin with LA-Lam were glucose, laminaribiose, and laminaritriose. The degradation profile of laminarioligosaccharides with LA-Lam suggested that the enzyme has a high substrate binding ability toward tetrameric or larger saccharides. Our results of the gene sequence and the SDS-PAGE analyses revealed that the major part of mature LA-Lam is a catalytic domain that belongs to the GH16 family, although its precursor is composed of a signal peptide, the catalytic domain, and three-repeated unknown regions.

The increasing interest of curdlan oligosaccharides (COS) in medicine and plant protection fields implies a necessity to identify and quantify this product. In the present study, an efficient and sensitive analytical method based on high-performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD) was established for the simultaneous separation and determination of D-glucose and ß-1,3-linked COS ranging from (COS)2 to (COS)6 within 20 min. Detection limits were 0.01 to 0.03 mg/L. The optimized assay was performed on a CarboPac-PA100 analytical column (4 mm × 250 mm) using isocratic elution with water-0.2 M sodium hydroxide-0.5 M sodium acetate mixture (50 : 30 : 20, v/v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. Regression equations indicated a good linear relationship (R 2 = 0.9992-1.0000, n = 6) within the test ranges. Quality parameters including precision and accuracy were fully validated and found to be satisfactory. More important, the regression of natural logarithm values of retention times (log10 RT) versus the degree polymerization (DP), as well as the slope coefficient of each COS's linear equation versus the corresponding DP, fitted a linear relationship well. These inherent linear relationships could provide valuable information to tentatively identify and quantify the COS even with the DP more than 6 without authentic standard. Furthermore, when the log10 RT was plotted against log10 flow rate for each COS, a perfect linear relationship was also observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laminarin is a potential biomass feedstock for the production of glucose, which is the most preferable fermentable sugar in many microorganisms by which it can be converted to biofuels and bio-based chemicals. Also, laminarin is a good resource as functional materials because it consists of β-1,3-glucosidic linkages in its backbone and β-1,6-glucosidic linkages in its branches so that its oligosaccharides driven from laminarin have a variety of biological activities. It is industrially important to be able to produce laminarioligosaccharides as well as glucose from laminarin by a single enzyme because the enzyme cost accounts for a large part of bio-based products. In this study, we investigated the industrial applicability of Bgl1B, a unique β-glucosidase from Saccharophagus degradans 2-40T, belonging to the glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1) by characterizing its activity of hydrolyzing laminarin under various conditions. RESULTS Bgl1B was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli from S. degradans 2-40T, and its enzymatic activity was characterized. Similar to most of β-glucosidases in GH1, Bgl1B was able to hydrolyze a variety of disaccharides having different β-linkages, such as laminaribiose, cellobiose, gentiobiose, lactose, and agarobiose, by cleaving β-1,3-, β-1,4-, and β-1,6-glycosidic linkages. However, Bgl1B showed the highest specific activity toward laminaribiose with a β-1,3-glycosidic linkage. In addition, it was able to hydrolyze laminarin, one of the major polysaccharides in brown macroalgae, into glucose with a conversion yield of 75% of theoretical maximum. Bgl1B also showed transglycosylation activity by producing oligosaccharides from laminarin and laminaribiose under a high mass ratio of substrate to enzyme. Furthermore, Bgl1B was found to be psychrophilic, exhibiting relative activity of 59-85% in the low-temperature range of 2-20 °C. CONCLUSIONS Bgl1B can directly hydrolyze laminarin into glucose with a high conversion yield without leaving any oligosaccharides. Bgl1B can exhibit high enzymatic activity in a broad range of low temperatures (2-20 °C), which is advantageous for establishing energy-efficient bioprocesses. In addition, under high substrate to enzyme ratios, Bgl1B can produce high-value laminarioligosaccharides via its transglycosylation activity. These results show that Bgl1B can be an industrially important enzyme for the production of biofuels and bio-based chemicals from brown macroalgae.

Abstract
Crystal structures of a β-1,3-glucanase from the thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum were determined at 1.20 and 1.42Å resolution in the free and glucose-bound form, respectively. This is the third structure of a family 55 glycoside hydrolase (GH55) member and the second from a fungus. Based on comparative structural studies and site-directed mutagenesis, Glu654 is proposed as the catalytic acid residue. The substrate binding cleft exhibits restricted access on one side, rendering the enzyme as an exo-β-1,3-glucanase as confirmed also by thin layer chromatography experiments. A lack of stacking interactions was found at the substrate binding cleft, suggesting that interactions at positions -1, +1 and +2 are sufficient to orientate the substrate. A binding pocket was identified that could explain binding of branched laminarin and accumulation of laminaritriose.

Abstract
One of the β-1,3-glucans, laminarin, has been widely used as a substrate for enzymes including endo-1,3-β-glucanase. To obtain quantitative information about the molecular interaction between laminarin and endo-1,3-β-glucanase, the structural properties of laminarin should be determined. The results from pioneering work using analytical ultracentrifugation for carbohydrate analysis showed that laminarin from Laminaria digitata predominantly exists as a single-chain species with approximately 5% of triple-helical species. Differential scanning calorimetry experiments did not show a peak assignable to the transition from triple-helix to single-chain, supporting the notion that a large proportion of laminarin is the single-chain species. The interaction of laminarin with an inactive variant of endo-1,3-β-glucanase from Cellulosimicrobium cellulans, E119A, was quantitatively analyzed using isothermal titration calorimetry. The binding was enthalpically driven and the binding affinity was approximately 10(6) M(-1). The results from binding stoichiometric analysis indicated that on average, E119A binds to laminarin in a 2:1 ratio. This seems to be reasonable, because laminarin mainly exists as a monomer, the apparent molecular mass of laminarin is 3.6 kDa, and E119A would have substrate-binding subsites corresponding to 6 glucose units. The analytical ultracentrifugation experiments could detect different complex species of laminarin and endo-1,3-β-glucanase.

Abstract
β-glucans exert receptor-mediated immunomodulating activities, including oxidative burst activity and cytokine secretion. The role of the β-glucan receptors dectin-1 and complement receptor 3 (CR3) in the response of immune cells towards β-glucans is still unresolved. Dectin-1 is considered as the main β-glucan receptor in mice, while recent studies in man show that CR3 is more important in β-glucan-mediated responses. This incited us to elucidate which receptor contributes to the response of innate immune cells towards particulate β-glucans in pigs as the latter might serve as a better model for man. Our results show an important role of CR3 in β-glucan recognition, as blocking this receptor strongly reduced the phagocytosis of β-glucans and the β-glucan-induced ROS production by porcine neutrophils. Conversely, dectin-1 does not seem to play a major role in β-glucan recognition in neutrophils. However, recognition of β-glucans appeared cell type-specific as both dectin-1 and CR3 are involved in the β-glucan-mediated responses in pig macrophages. Moreover, CR3 signalling through focal adhesion kinase (FAK) was indispensable for β-glucan-mediated ROS production and cytokine production in neutrophils and macrophages, while the Syk-dependent pathway was only partly involved in these responses. We may conclude that CR3 plays a cardinal role in β-glucan signalling in porcine neutrophils, while macrophages use a more diverse receptor array to detect and respond towards β-glucans. Nonetheless, FAK acts as a master switch that regulates β-glucan-mediated responses in neutrophils as well as macrophages.

Abstract
We analyzed the human monocyte-stimulating ability of laminarin from Eisenia bicyclis, lichenan from Cetraria islandica, and their oligomers depolymerized with endo-1,3-beta-glucanase from Arthrobacter sp. The respective beta-glucan oligomers with different degrees of polymerization (DP) were fractionated from hydrolytic products of laminarin and lichenan using gel-filtration chromatography. The monocyte-conditioned medium pre-cultured in the presence of a fraction of beta-glucan oligomer (DP>/=8) from laminarin exhibited inhibitory activity against the proliferation of human myeloid leukemia U937 cells, while those pre-cultured with other beta-glucan oligomers and the original laminarin and lichenan showed little or no activity. NMR analysis indicated that the beta-glucan oligomer (DP>/=8) has an average DP value of 13, and its ratio of beta-1,3- to beta-1,6-linkages in glucopyranose units was estimated to be 1.3:1. These results indicate that the beta-1,3-glucan oligomer with a higher content of beta-1,6-linkage stimulates monocytes to inhibit the proliferation of U937 cells.

Abstract
Background β-1,3-Glucanases catalyze the hydrolysis of glucan polymers containing β-1,3-linkages. These enzymes are of great biotechnological, agricultural and industrial interest. The applications of β-1,3-glucanases is well established in fungal disease biocontrol, yeast extract production and wine extract clarification. Thus, the identification and characterization of novel β-1,3-glucanases with high catalytic efficiency and stability is of particular interest. Results A β-1,3-glucanase gene designated PglA was cloned from a newly isolated strain Paenibacillus sp. S09. The gene PglA contained a 2631-bp open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 876 amino acids which shows 76% identity with the β-1,3-glucanase (BglH) from Bacillus circulans IAM1165. The encoded protein PglA is composed of a signal peptide, an N-terminal leader region, a glycoside hydrolase family 16 (GH16) catalytic domain and a C-terminal immunoglobulin like (Ig-like) domain. The Escherichia coli expression system of PglA and five truncated derivatives containing one or two modules was constructed to investigate the role of catalytic and non-catalytic modules. The pH for optimal activity of the enzymes was slightly affected (pH 5.5-6.5) by the presence of different modules. However, the temperature for optimal activity was strongly influenced by the C-terminal domain and ranged from 50 to 60°C. Deletion of C-terminal domain resulted in obviously enhancing enzymatic thermostability. Specific activity assay indicated that PglA specifically hydrolyzes β-1,3-glucan. Insoluble β-1,3-glucan binding and hydrolysis were boosted by the presence of N-and C-terminal domains. Kinetic analysis showed that the presence of N-and C-terminus enhances the substrate affinity and catalytic efficiency of the catalytic domain toward laminarin. Carbohydrate-binding assay directly confirmed the binding capabilities of the N-and C-terminal domains. Conclusions This study provides new insight into the impacts of non-catalytic modules on enzymatic properties of β-1,3-glucanase. Activity comparison of full-length PglA and truncated forms revealed the negative effect of C-terminal region on thermal stability of the enzyme. Both the N-and C-terminal domains exerted strong binding activity toward insoluble β-1,3-glucan, and could be classified into CBM families.

Abstract
Small reducing and linear oligo-beta-(1,3)-glucans, which are able to act as phytoallexin elicitors or as immunostimulating agents in anticancer therapy, were synthesized according to an iterative strategy that involved a unique key monosaccharidic donor. To avoid anomeric mixtures, the reducing entity of the target oligomers was first locked with benzyl alcohol and further selective deprotection of the 3-OH with DDQ afforded the desired building block as an acceptor. The latter was then used in a second cycle of glycosylation/deprotection to afford the desired disaccharide, and successive reiterations of this process provided the desired oligomers. Unusual conformational behaviors were observed by standard NMR sequences and supported by NOESY studies. Finally, removal of protecting groups afforded free tri-, tetra-, and pentaglucosides in good overall yields. Two oligosaccharides representing linear laminaritetraose and laminaripentaose were compared to the recently described beta-(1,3)-glucan phycarine. Following an intraperitoneal injection, the influx of monocytes and granulocytes into the blood and macrophages into the peritoneal cavity was comparable to that caused by phycarine. Similarly, both oligosaccharides stimulated phagocytic activity of granulocytes and macrophages. Using ELISA, we also demonstrated a significant stimulation of secretion of IL-1beta. Together these results suggest that the synthetic oligosaccharides have similar stimulatory effects as natural beta-(1,3)-glucans.

Abstract
Glucans have a long history as nonspecific biological modulators. A novel glucan-Phycarine-was isolated from sporophytes of Laminaria digitata. Phycarine showed significant stimulation of phagocytic activity as well as potentiation of synthesis and release of IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-alpha. In addition, Phycarine increased NK cell-mediated killing of tumor cells both in vitro and in vivo while acting via complement receptor type 3 (CR3) receptors.

Abstract
A novel sensor system equipped with a reactor packed with beads containing immobilized beta-1,3-glucanase and glucose oxidase was developed for the amperometric determination of laminarin concentration. The proposed sensor system consisted of a reactor, an oxygen electrode, a flow cell, a pump, a buffer tank, and a recorder. The measurement was performed with a flow injection system. The optimum conditions for the sensor system were as follows: transfer solution, pH 7.0; 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution; flow rate, 0.15 ml/min; and sample volume, 50 microl. The response was correlated to the laminarin concentration. The calibration curve was obtained between 50 and 0.5 mg/ml laminarin (R2 = 0.994). The detection limit was 50 microg/ml laminarin (the ratio of signal/noise = 3). The relative standard deviations were 2.0% (n = 15) and 2.5% (n = 15) for 0.4 and 1.0 mg/ml laminarin solutions, respectively. One assay was completed within 5 min. Results suggest that the sensor can be used not only for the analysis of seaweed and health-enhancing foods but also for monitoring the initial pollution of the marine environment.
