Abstract

The present study explored the optimization of exoglucanase production from waste cellulosic biomaterials using microbial cellulases, focusing on enhancing enzyme efficiency through mutagenesis techniques. Research illustrated the hyper-production and quantitative characterization of an exoglucanase from a thermophilic Aspergillus fumigatus strain via physical and chemical mutagenesis under optimized fermentation conditions. Physical mutagenesis via UV irradiation (15-min exposure) yielded the highest activity (96.57 U/mL), while chemical mutagenesis with ethyl methane sulfonates (250 µg/mL) resulted in 69.61 U/mL activity. Combined mutagenesis using EMS (250 µg/mL) concentration with 15-min UV exposure significantly enhanced exoglucanase production to 136.19 U/mL as compared to the native enzyme 52.46 U/mL. Among various cellulosic substrates, peanut shells exhibited superior suitability for exoglucanase production reaching a maximum activity of 202.41 U/mL. Fermentation parameters including pH, temperature, incubation period, and inoculum size were optimized, leading to a substantial increase in exoglucanase activity of 285.28 U/mL using response surface methodology followed by gel filtration chromatography. The mutant exoglucanase was characterized by its enhanced activities with a higher Vmax (0.6515) and lower Km (0.3142) than those of native enzyme. The characterization has confirmed the temperature and pH tolerance of the mutant enzyme, as well as its tolerance to metal ions and substrate concentrations. This study showed how mutagenesis-driven optimization could provide a means to enhance exoglucanase production from cellulosic biomass, with a rational insight toward enzyme kinetics and applications toward bioenergy generation.

嗜热烟曲霉本地菌株的物理、化学和联合诱变高产及外葡聚糖酶特性研究。
本研究探索了利用微生物纤维素酶从废弃纤维素生物材料中生产外葡聚糖酶的优化方法,重点是通过诱变技术提高酶的效率。研究表明,在优化的发酵条件下,通过物理和化学诱变,从嗜热的烟曲霉菌株中高产出一种外葡聚糖酶并进行了定量表征。紫外辐照(15 min)物理诱变活性最高,为96.57 U/mL;化学诱变(250µg/mL)甲烷磺酸乙酯诱变活性最高,为69.61 U/mL。用EMS(250µg/mL)和紫外线照射15分钟的联合诱变显著提高了外葡聚糖酶的产量,达到136.19 U/mL,而天然酶为52.46 U/mL。在不同的纤维素基质中,花生壳对外葡聚糖酶的适应性最强,其酶活最高可达202.41 U/mL。通过对pH、温度、培养时间、接种量等发酵参数的优化,采用响应面法和凝胶过滤色谱法,使外源葡聚糖酶活性显著提高,达到285.28 U/mL。突变体外葡聚糖酶活性显著增强,Vmax(0.6515)和Km(0.3142)均高于原酶。表征证实了突变酶的温度和pH耐受性,以及对金属离子和底物浓度的耐受性。这项研究表明诱变驱动的优化可以为提高纤维素生物质的外葡聚糖酶产量提供一种手段,并对酶动力学和生物能源生产的应用有了合理的认识。
