来自环境DNA的葡聚糖延伸酶 Glucan elongation enzyme from environmental DNA

A thermostable 4-α-glucanotransferase that elongates linear alpha-glucan chains in starch and amylose by catalyzing the transfer of one glucose unit from the non-reducing end to a new position in an acceptor, which may be triose or larger. The enzyme can be used various applications, such as for modifications of alpha-polysaccharides and is ideal for making clear size ladders of oligosaccharides larger than maltose. The enzyme was developed from metagenome DNA obtained from environmental sample from a geothermal environment.

Mode of action: The enzyme catalyzes the formation of the alpha-1,4-glucosidic linkages. The enzyme transfers a segment of a (1->4)-alpha-D-glucan to a new position in an acceptor, which may be glucose or a (1->4)-alpha-D-glucan.

Unit Definition: Half unit (U) is defined as the amount of enzyme which  lowers the OD at 650 nm from 1.2 to 0.7 in 30minutes.

Unit Assay Conditions:  Branching enzyme activity was routinely determined in a 50mM KPO4 pH 8.0 buffer for 10 minutes, with 0.01% (w/v) final conc. of amylose.
