Definitions
- the invention relates generally to a purification protocol for obtaining a low molecular weight, thermostable ⁇ -D-glucosidasc from Acidotkermus cellulolyticus.
- the present application incorporates by reference the entirety of U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 08/125,115.
- the invention pertains more specifically to a process for obtaining a low molecular weight, thermostable ⁇ -D-glucosidase from Acidothermus cellulolyticus culture broth or bacterium, submitted to the American Type Culture Collection under collection number 43068.
- the address where the Acidothermus celluloly ⁇ cus was deposited is 12301 Par lawn Drive, Rockville, Maryland 20852.
- Cellulose consists of long insoluble chains of covalently bonded glucose molecules, and in this condition, these long insoluble chains are too large to be transported through human and animal cell walls.
- enzymes known as cellulases are secreted, and these enzymes hydrolyze or depolyrnerize the cellulose into its monomeric component of glucose, which is a sugar that can be readily transported through the cell wall and metabolized.
- the fermentable fractions of cellulosic biomass include cellulose ( ⁇ -l,4-linked glucose) and hemicellulose, a substantial heterogeneous fraction that is composed of xylose and minor five- and six -carbon sugars. Although it is an abundant biopolymer, cellulose is unique in that it is highly crystalline, insoluble in water, and highly resistant to depolymerization.
- the definitive enzymatic degradation of cellulose to glucose is generally accomplished by the synergistic action of three distinct classes of enzymes: first, the "endo-l,4- ⁇ -glucanases” or 1,4- ⁇ -glucan 4- glucanohydrolases (EC 3.2.1.4), which act at random on soluble and insoluble 1,4- ⁇ - glucan substrates and are commonly measured by the detection of reducing groups released from carboxymethylcellulose (CMC); second, the "exo-l,4- ⁇ -glucosidases,” including both the 1,4- ⁇ -glucan glucohydrolases (EC 3.2.1.74), which liberate D-glucose from 1,4- ⁇ -glucans and hydrolyze D-cellobiose slowly, and 1,4- ⁇ -D-glucan cellobiohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.91), which liberates D-cellobiose from 1,4- ⁇ -glucans; and third, the " ⁇ -D-glucosid
- the synergistic reaction occurs as a result of a sequential, cooperative action among the three enzyme components in a complex in which the product of one enzyme reaction becomes the substrate for the next enzyme.
- thermostable cellulase enzymes are known to be secreted by the cellulolytic thermophilic Acidothermus cellulolyticus gen. nov., sp. nov., a bacterium originally isolated from decaying wood in an acidic, thermal pool at Yellowstone National Park and deposited with the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) under collection number
