Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable efficient obtaining of N-acetyllactosamine by reacting beta- galactosidase with a substrate composed of lactose and N-acetylglucosamine in the presence of a salting out agent. CONSTITUTION:Lactose is mixed with N-acetylglucosamine at 1:(1-5) molar ratio to provide a substrate, which is then prepared so as to afford 20-70wt.% substrate. Thereby, a reaction solution is obtained. A salting out agent, such as (NH4)2SO4, in an amount of 5-30wt.% is then added to the aforementioned reaction solution and beta-galactosidase originating from a fungus Aspergillus niger, etc., in an amount of 0.5-5U/ml is subsequently added to afford an enzymic reaction solution, which is then reacted at 5-50 deg.C and pH 4-9 for 2-50hr to provide a reaction product. The resultant reaction product is subsequently purified by active carbon column chromatography, etc., to produce N-acetyllactosamine.

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a method for producing N-acetyllactosamine contained in the sugar chains of large milk oligosaccharides and complex carbohydrates. (Prior art) ) N-acetyllactosamine is an amino disaccharide in which galactose and N-acetylglucosamine are linked with β-l.4, and was first isolated from the decomposition product of blood group glycoprotein. , is a biochemically very important oligosaccharide that exists in the sugar chains of various glycoproteins and glycolipids.It is also known as a growth factor for bifidobacteria, which is one of the intestinal muscle cells, and is highly functional. It is also a useful substance as a food material. Traditionally, N-acetyllactosamine has been manufactured by chemical synthesis or by combining the high-energy compound LIDP-galactose and N-acetyllactosamine.
It is known that lactose is synthesized using lactose synthetase using acetylglucosamine as a substrate, but these methods are complicated and expensive, and are still difficult to manufacture industrially. On the other hand, as a simple method, Lactobacillus bifidus (Lactobacillus bifidus) is grown using lactose and N-acetylglucosamine as substrates.
There have been reports using live bacterial cells of S. bifidusl and S. orobolomyces singularis [J. Bi-ol. chem. ..
217.79 (1955). Can. J. Chem.
, 42, 2307 (19641) and a report on the action of β-galactosidase produced by Lactobacillus bifidus [J. Riot. Chem.
208, 299 (1954)]. or,
Recently, galactose and N-acetylglucosamine have been used as substrates for Escherichia coli.
A report on the production of N-acetyllactosamine through a dehydration condensation reaction using β-galactosidase produced by A. coli [Proceedings of the 10th Carbohydrate Symposium, p.i.
o7+tc+a7)] is shown. <Problems to be Solved by the Invention> However, both production methods have the drawback that the amount of N-acetyllactosamine produced is very small. Therefore, as a result of various studies in order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present inventors decided to use lactose and N-acetylglucosamine as substrates,
The present inventors have discovered that the amount of N-acetyllactosamine produced increases by allowing galactosidase to act in the presence of a salting-out agent, leading to the completion of the present invention. <Means for Solving the Problems> The present invention uses lactose and N-acetylglucosamine as substrates, allows β-galactosidase to act in the presence of a dissipating agent, and efficiently produces N-acetyllactosamine through a galactose transfer reaction. The purpose is to provide a method to do this. -acill as β-galactosidase used in the present invention
For example, enzymes originating from P. circulans can be used, and these commercially available enzymes can be used. Examples of the salting-out agent of the present invention include ammonium sulfate, sodium sulfate, potassium phosphate, magnesium sulfate, sodium citrate, and sodium chloride, and one or more of these can be used, and the concentration is: 5 to 30% is preferable. Lactose and N used in the reaction
-The amount of acetylglucosamine is in molar ratio l:1-1:
5, and the total substrate concentration is preferably 20 to 70%. Furthermore, the β-galactosidase used in the present invention is
0 in the reaction system. It is preferable to add it so that it becomes 50/n+flood to 50/mQ, maintain the pH at 4 to 9, the temperature at 5°C to 50°C, and let it act for 2 hours to 50 hours.
