Abstract

This study investigated the optimal conditions of high yield production of cyclofructan (CF) using recombinant deletion mutant enzyme CFT108 which is constructed by N-terminal deletion from cycloinulooligosaccharide fructanotransferase (CFTase) gene of Penibacillus polymyxa. The production yield was dependent on reaction time, substrate concentration and enzyme concentration. The optimum reaction time for industrial purpose was achieved at 3 hr reaction. The optimal concentrations of substrate and enzyme were found to be inulin and 40 unit/ g inulin, respectively. At optimum condition, 9.5 g/l of maximum yield and of conversion efficacy were achieved. For purification of CF produced, the reaction mixture was treated with 1 unit/ml exoinulinase and then added CaO three times with blowing gas, resulted in purity.
