摘要
A gene encoding for a thermostable exopolygalacturonase (exo-PG) from hyperthermophilic Thermotoga maritima has been cloned into a T7 expression vector and expressed in Escherichia coli. The gene encoded a polypeptide of 454 residues with a molecular mass of 51,304 Da. The recombinant enzyme was purified to homogeneity by heat treatment and nickel affinity chromatography. The thermostable enzyme had maximum of hydrolytic activity for polygalacturonate at 95 degreesC, pH 6.0 and retains 90% of activity after heating at 90 degreesC for 5 h. Study of the catalytic activity of the exopolygalacturonase, investigated by means of H-1 NMR spectroscopy revealed an inversion of configuration during hydrolysis of alpha-(1 --> 4)-galacturonic linkage.
