ABSTRACT
Complete mannanase gene with two introns was cloned from Trichoderrna reesei by PCR. The two introns were then removed by overlap extension PCR. The gene encoding the mature mannanase protein was inserted into the expression vector pPIC9K, downstream of a alpha-factor signal peptide sequence. The resultant recombinant vector was named pM242. After linearized with Sac I , pM242 was transformed to Pichia pastoris GS115 by electroporation. After screening, the recombinant strain Gpmf25 that expresses the secretory protein at high level was obtained. The activity of the recombinant mannanase reached 12.5 IU/mL. Optimum pH and temperature for the recombinant enzyme were 5.0 and 80 degrees C, respectively. The enzyme was stable at pH 5.0-6.0 and maintained over 50% of original activity after incubation at 70 degrees C for 30 min.

The beta-glucosidase encoding gene bglA was cloned from Bacillus polymyxa 1.794. The bglA gene was inserted in expression vector pET28a(+) and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), finally the recombinant strain BL1979 was obtained. Induced by IPTG, the expression P-glucosidase activity reached to 24.7 IU/mL. The optimum temperature and optimum pH of the recombinant expression P-glucosidase in BL1979 were 37 degrees C and 7.0 respectively,the purity can reach to 92.7%. Analysis of the fusion protein by nondenaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, we found the fusion protein exists in dimmer, tetramer,hexamer and octamer, they all have hydrolase activity.
