著者：Okada T, Ishiyama S, Sezutsu H, Usami A, Tamura T, Mita K, Fujiyama K, Seki T.題名：Molecular cloning and expression of two novel beta-N-acetylglucosaminidases from silkworm Bombyx mori.発表情報：Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry 巻: 71 号: 7 ページ: 1626-1635キーワード：概要：抄録：Beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase is a major glycosidase involved in several physiological processes, such as fertilization, metamorphosis, glycoconjugate degradation, and glycoprotein biosynthesis in insects. A search using the Bombyx mori cDNA database revealed the existence of two putative beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase genes. Their full-length cDNAs were cloned by rapid amplification of cDNA ends and polymerase chain reaction using specific primers, and named BmGlcNAcase1 and BmGlcNAcase2. A BLAST search revealed that BmGlcNAcase1 and BmGlcNAcase2 are homologous to a beta-subunit homolog encoded by Drosophila melanogaster HEXO2 and the Spodoptera frugiperda beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase gene respectively. The recombinant proteins of BmGlcNAcase1 and BmGlcNAcase2 without putative transmembrane domains were expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris. Both enzymes showed broad substrate specificity, and cleaved terminal N-acetylglucosamine residues from the alpha-3 and alpha-6 branches of a biantennary N-glycan substrate, and also hydrolyzed chitotriose to chitobiose.英語フィールド
