단위진동전류 검출기를 정착한 고성능 액체 크로마토그래프를 이용하여 생체내에 저동도로 존재하며 항생제 및 면역억제제로 그 사용이 주목받고 있는 glucose-1-phosphate (G-1-P)를 분리, 분석하였다. 기존의 본석방법인 세 가지 효소의 혼합사용을 이용한 자외선분석법과 선형성 (2 - $20{\mu}M$ 범위에서 기울기는 $4.8{\times}10^4$ 피크면적/${\mu}M$)과 재현성을 비교한 결과 본 분석법이 더 효율적임을 알 수 있었다. 최저 측정한계는 $2{\mu}M$이었다. 실재 내열성 효소반응액을 이용한 분석에서 G-1-P 및 부산물인 glucose-G-phosphate도 분리되었다. 본 분석방법은 생체내에 존재하는 여러 형태의 탄수화물 이성질체의 분리를 가능케 해, 생체내 탄수화물 대사연구에 효율적으로 이용될 수 있다.

The debranching enzyme of Nostoc punctiforme (NPDE) is a novel enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of $\alpha$-1,6-glycosidic linkages in starch, followed by the sequential hydrolysis of $\alpha$-1,4-glycosidic linkages. The debranching activity of NPDE is highly specific for branched chains with a degree of polymerization (DP)>8. Moreover, the rate of hydrolysis of $\alpha$-1,4-linkages by NPDE is greatly enhanced for maltooligosaccharides (MOs) with a DP>8. An analysis of reaction mixtures containing various starches revealed the accumulation of maltooctaose (G8) with glucose and maltose. Based on the novel enzymatic properties of NPDE, an MO mixture containing more than 60% G8 with yield of 18 g G8 for 100 g starch was prepared by the reaction of NPDE with soluble starch, followed by ethanol precipitation and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The yield of the G8-rich mixture was significantly improved by the addition of isoamylase. In summary, a 4-step process for the production of a G8-rich mixture was developed involving the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch by NPDE.

시판 식혜에는 설탕과 프룩토오스, 글루코오스, 말토오스 및 여러 사이즈의 말토올리고당, 한계덱스트린이 함유되어 있다. 그 중 한계덱스트린은 0.09%, 밥알은 0.2%를 나타냈다. 1H-NMR 분석 결과, 한계덱스트린은 $\alpha$-1,4-결합 및 $\alpha$-1,6-결합이 15:1의 비율을 나타냈다. Pullulanase 처리로, 말토오스에서 글루코오스 10잔기 이상의 말토올리고당까지 다양한 분포를 나타냈다. 한계덱스트린은 여러 아미라아제 처리 결과, 전통식혜보다 가수분해율이 훨씬 높았다. $\alpha$-글루코시다아제와 타액 $\alpha$-아밀라아제를 공동 작용시킨 경우는 62% 가수분해되었다. 그러나, 밥알의 가수분해율이 매우 낮았다. 그래서 전통 식혜에 비해 한계덱스트린의 비피두스 인자로서의 효과는 적고, 밥알의 식이섬유 작용은 커졌다.

Pullulanase의 역반응능을 이용하여 maltose와 $\beta$-cyclodextrin으로부터 maltosyl-$\beta$-cyclodextrin을 중합합성하기 위한 최적효소반응조건을 검토하였다. Maltose와 $\beta$-CD를 기질로 maltosyl-$\beta$-CD을 합성하였을 경우, 기질의 농도 70( w/w, 70g/100ml $H2_O$ ), malto-loigo당 /$\beta$-CD의 혼합비 12.7, 그리고 사용효소량 350 units/100ml일 때 최대전융인 43(w/w, g branched-CD/g CD)를 얻었고, 생성량은 2.31g/100ml였다. Maltosyl-$\beta$-CD의 효소합성의 적정 pH 및 온도는 각각 4.9와 $60^{\circ}C$ 였다. 또한 maltose와 $\alpha ,\beta$-그리고 $\gamma$-CD 각각을 기질로하여 maltosyl $\Alpha, \beta$ 그리고 $\gamma$-CD를 합성하였을 경우 전환율은 51.8, 42.6, 그리고 48.1로써, 생성량은 각각 2.8, 2.3 그리고 2.6g/100ml였다.

올리고당중에서 ${\alpha}$-1, 6-결합을 가진 isomaltose, isomaltotriose, panose 등을 주성분으로 하는 이소말토올리고당의 생산을 위해 A. niger 유래의 transglucosidase　（TG)의 효소학적 특성을 살펴보았다. TG는 maltose를 포도당으로 가수분해하여 panose와 포도당을 생성하였다. panose가 초기기질일 때 TG는 panose를 maltose와 포도당으로 가수분해하였다. ${\alpha}$-1, 6-결합을 가진 isomaltose나 isomaltotriose, isomaltotetraose를 기질로 하였을 때 반응산물의 생성은 ${\alpha}$-1,4-결합을 가진 maltose가 기질일 경우와는 다른 양상을 보였다. 반면 maltotriose를 기질로 한 경우에는 maltose와 유사한 양상을 보였다. TG는 maltotetraose(G4)에서 maltodecaose (G10)가 주성분인 말토올리고당을 기질로 한 경우에도 이소말토올리고당을 생성하였다. 기질인 maltose로부터 TG에 의해 panose가 생성되는 반응은 Michaelos-Menten 식으로 표현되었으며 최대속도, $V_{max}$와 Michaelis 상수, $K_m$은 각각 400 ${\mu}M/min$과 21.4${\mu}M$이었다.

The expression of the Paenibacillus sp. A11 cyclodextrinase (CDase) gene using the pUC 18 vector in Escherichia coli JM 109 resulted in the formation of an insoluble CDase protein in the cell debris in addition to a soluble CDase protein in the cytoplasm. Unlike the expression in Paenibacillus sp. A11, CDase was primarily observed in cytoplasm. However, by adding 0.5 M sorbitol as an osmolyte, the formation of insoluble CDase was prevented while a three-fold increase in cytoplasmic CDase activity was achieved after a 24 h-induction. The recombinant CDase protein was purified to approximately 14-fold with a 31% recovery to a specific activity of 141 units/mg protein by 40-60% ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Toyopearl 650 M, and Phenyl Sepharose CL-4B chromatography. It was homogeneous by non-denaturing and SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was a single polypeptide with a molecular weight of 80 kDa, as determined by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE. It showed the highest activity at pH 7.0 and $40^{\circ}C$. The catalytic efficiency ($k_{cat}/K_m$) values for $\alpha$-, $\beta$-, and $\gamma$-CD were $3.0{\times}10^5$, $8.8{\times}10^5$, and $5.5{\times}10^5\;M^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, respectively. The enzyme hydrolyzed CDs and linear maltooligosaccharides to yield maltose and glucose with less amounts of maltotriose and maltotetraose. The rates of hydrolysis for polysaccharides, soluble starch, and pullulan were very low. The cloned CDase was strongly inactivated by N-bromosuccinimide and diethylpyrocarbonate, but activated by dithiothreitol. A comparison of the biochemical properties of the CDases from Paenibacillus sp. A11 and E. coli transformant (pJK 555) indicates that they were almost identical.

Prebiotic isomaltooligosaccharide preparations contain $\alpha$-D-glucooligosaccharides comprising isomaltooligosaccharides (IMOs) and non-prebiotic maltooligosaccharides (MOs). They are both glucose oligosaccharides characterized by their degree of polymerization (DP) value (from 2 to $\sim$10), linkages types and positions (IMOs: $\alpha$-(1$\rightarrow$2, 3, 6 and in a lower proportion internal 1$\rightarrow$4) linkages, MOs: α-(1$\rightarrow$4) linkages). Their structure is the key factor for their prebiotic potential. In order to determine and elucidate the exact structure of unknown IMOs and MOs, unambiguous assignments of $^{13}C$ and $^1H$ chemical shifts of commercial standards, representative of IMOs and MOs diversity, have been determined using optimized standard one and two-dimensional experiments such as $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, APT and ${^1}H-{^1}H$ COSY, TOCSY, NOESY and <$^1H-{^{13}}C$ heteronuclear HSQC, HSQC-TOCSY, and HMBC. Here we point out the differential effect of substitution by a glucose residue at different positions on chemical shifts of anomeric as well as ring carbons together with the effect of the reducing end configuration for low DP oligosaccharides and diasteroisotopic effect for H-6 protons. From this study, structural $^{13}C$ specific spectral features can be identified as tools for structural analysis of isomaltooligosaccharides.

A gene encoding a putative glycogen-debranching enzyme in Sulfolobus shibatae(abbreviated as SSGDE) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme was purified to homogeneity by heat treatment and Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The recombinant SSGDE was extremely thermostable, with an optimal temperature at $85^{\circ}C$. The enzyme had an optimum pH of 5.5 and was highly stable from pH 4.5 to 6.5. The substrate specificity of SSGDE suggested that it possesses characteristics of both amylo-1,6-glucosidase and $\alpha$-1,4-glucanotransferase. SSGDE clearly hydrolyzed pullulan to maltotriose, and $6-O-\alpha-maltosyl-\beta-cyclodextrin(G2-\beta-CD)$ to maltose and $\beta$-cyclodextrin. At the same time, SSGDE transferred maltooligosyl residues to the maltooligosaccharides employed, and maltosyl residues to $G2-\beta-CD$. The enzyme preferentially hydrolyzed amylopectin, followed in a decreasing order by glycogen, pullulan, and amylose. Therefore, the present results suggest that the glycogen-debranching enzyme from S. shibatae may have industrial application for the efficient debranching and modification of starch to dextrins at a high temperature.

The trehalose $({\alpha}-D-glucopyranosyl-[1,1]-{\alpha}-D-glucopyranose)$ biosynthesis genes MhMTS and MhMTH, encoding a maltooligosyltrehalose synthase (MhMTS) and a maltooligosyltrehalose trehalohydrolase (MhMTH), respectively, have been cloned from the hyperthermophilic archaebacterium Metallosphaera hakonesis. The ORF of MhMTS is 2,142 bp long, and encodes 713 amino acid residues constituting a 83.8 kDa protein. MhMTH is 1,677 bp long, and encodes 558 amino acid residues constituting a 63.7 kDa protein. The deduced amino acid sequences of MhMTS and MhMTH contain four regions highly conserved for MTSs and three for MTHs that are known to constitute substrate-binding sites of starch-hydrolyzing enzymes. Recombinant proteins obtained by expressing the MhMTS and MhMTH genes in E. coli catalyzed a sequential reaction converting maltooligosaccharides to produce trehalose. Optimum pH of the MhMTS/MhMTH enzyme reaction was around 5.0 and optimum temperature was around 70 C. Trehalose-producing activity of the MhMTS/ MhMTH was notably stable, retaining 80% of the activity after preincubation of the enzyme mixture at $70^{\circ}C$ for 48 h, but was gradually abolished by incubating at above $85^{\circ}C$. Addition of thermostable $4-{\alpha}-glucanotransferase$ increased the yield of trehalose production from maltopentaose by 10%. The substrate specificity of the MhMTS/MhMTH-catalyzed reaction was extended to soluble starch, the most abundant maltodextrin in nature.
