Abstract
For the conversion of β-glycosides, 3 genes (BLA_0039, BLA_0141, and BLA_0893) annotated as β-glucosidase (E.C 3.2.1.21) from the genome of Bifidobacterium lactis AD011 were cloned and expressed both in Escherichia coli DH5α and Bifidobacterium bifidum BGN4 using previously established bifidobacterial expression system under the control of 16S rRNA promoter. Deduced amino acid sequence analysis revealed that BLA_0141 is highly similar to β-d-glucosidase from Bifidobacterium breve clb and is included in glycosyl hydrolase family 1 (GHF1) while BLA_0893 belongs to glycosyl hydrolase family 3 (GHF3). Recombinant BLA_0893 showed β-glucosidase activity and converted ginsenoside Rb1 to Rd. Recombinant BLA_0141 showed broad range of activities including β-glucosidase, β-galactosidase, β-xylosidase, cellobiosidase, and α-arabinopyranosidase and converted ginsenoside Rb1 and Rb2 to Rd. They also hydrolized cellobiose into glucose. The recombinant enzyme activities of both BLA_0141 and BLA_0893 were stable around pH 4.5–7.5 and below 50°C.
