Abstract
The studies have revealed alkaline exoinulinase produced by haloalkaliphilic phototrophic bacteria Ectothiorhodospirea mobilis Al-2 for the first time. A new method for the isolation of a homogeneous exoinulinase from the culture broth was developed and the properties of this enzyme have been investigated. It was shown that specified exoinulinase in contrast to the studied exoinulinases produced by microorganisms exhibits catalytic activity at the wide range of pH (7.0-10) and a temperature (20-60 °C) with a maximum of the inulolitic activity at pH 9.0 and 50 °C. The studied exoinulinase possessing also invertase activity (I/S1.4) is a monomeric protein with molecular mass 57Kda, as well as Km and Vmax for inulin 3.8 mM/ml and 10 µmol/ml/min-1, respectively. The studies of the influence of different metal ions on enzyme activity have shown that Mn+2, Cu+2, Co+2, Mg+2, NaCl 5-7% promote relatively higher catalytic activity while Zn+2, Cu+2 and Fe+2 partially suppress the enzyme activity and Hg2+completely inactivates the enzyme.The formation of only fructose and glucose at the enzymatic hydrolysis of inulin confirms that the studied exoinulinase belongs to the exo-type of enzymes. The obtained results supplement our fundamental knowledge in biochemistry-enzymology, as well as the biodiversity of microorganisms expressing exoinulinase. The studied exoinulinase exhibits activity at salinity of the medium and can potentially be used in the biotechnology of inulin bioconversion into bioproducts under alkaline conditions.

Rhizopus oryzae Inulinase Production and Characterization with Application in Chicory Root Saccharification. MICROBIOLOGY RESEARCH 2023.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to create a fermentation process for the production of inulinase, an important enzyme with numerous applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries, using low-cost agricultural waste as substrates for Rhizopus oryzae NRRL 3563. High titer inulinase production in chicory roots by Rhizopus oryzae in a submerged culture was accomplished using a statistical experimental design. A two-level Plackett–Burman design followed by a three-level Box–Behnken design producing a high inulinase titer of 1085.11 U/mL, 2.83-fold the maximum level, was obtained in the screening experiment. The optimal levels were as follows: chicory root, 10 g/L; NaNO3, 5 g/L; and KCl, 0.2 g/L. The produced inulinase enzyme was purified using 70% ammonium sulfate precipitation and ultra-filtration causing 3.63-fold purification with 60% activity recovery. The enzyme had a molecular weight of approximately 130 KDa. The purified enzyme showed optimum activity at 50 °C and pH 6.0. The pH stability range was three to six and the temperature stability was up 70 °C. The purified inulinase could hydrolyze inulin and sucrose, but not cellobiose or soluble starch. Km and Vmax for inulin were determined to be 0.8 mg/mL and 50,000 U/mg, respectively. The two-level Plackett–Burman design was applied followed by a Box–Behnken model for optimization of fermentation conditions. Accordingly, the optimal combination of fermentation was a reaction time of seven hours, a temperature of 60 °C, and an enzyme concentration of 40,000 U/mL, which resulted in a 58.07% saccharification yield. The characteristics of the enzyme and its kinetic parameters suggested that it was highly effective in the fermentation of inulin and inulin-containing substrates. Additionally, it raises the potential of using inulinase enzymes in pharmaceutical and food industries.

Food Sci Biotechnol 2021; 30:959-969. [PMID: 34395027 DOI: 10.1007/s10068-021-00931-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Revised: 05/15/2021] [Accepted: 06/08/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The crude extract containing inulinase from Rhodotorula mucilaginosa was obtained by submerged fermentation. Inulinase was immobilized on chicken eggshell by physical adsorption and covalent crosslinking, using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking reagent, and Celite by adsorption. Fructooligosaccharides production was performed using immobilized inulinase (5%, w/v) and inulin substrate solution under experimental conditions evaluated through Doehlert experimental design. The production of inulinase was optimized for concentrations of D-glucose and yeast extract at 12.5 and 0.5 g/L, respectively, resulting in an optimal activity of 0.62 U. The optimal pH and temperature for enzyme activity were 8.0 and 75 °C, respectively, leading to an optimal activity of 3.54 U. The highest immobilization efficiency (46.27%) was obtained upon immobilization on Celite. Immobilization by adsorption to eggshell allowed for specific activity of 4.15 U/g, and adsorption to Celite resulted in specific activity of 3.70 U/g. The highest titer in fructooligosaccharides was obtained with an initial inulin concentration of 250 g/L (25%, w/v), and a reaction time of 16 h. Hence, immobilized inulinase proved to be a promising catalyst for fructooligosaccharides production since the formulation is performed through a simple, low-cost, and large-scale applicable methodology.
