RESUMO
In order to improve the fermentation potency of phytase in recombinant host and decrease the production cost, the pichia expression vector pGAPZalpha-A was modified by introduction of an AOX1 promoter from vector pPIC9 and the resulted vector pAOXZalpha is an methanol induced vector. After that, a phytase gene appA-m was cloned into pAOXZalpha to construct the recombinant vector pAOXZalpha-appA-m. The recombinant Pichia pastoris 74#, which already contains one copy of appA-m and its fermentation potency exceeded 7.5 x 10(6) IU/mL, was used as the host strain for the transformation of pAOXZalpha-appA-m. The Pichia pastoris transformants were gained by electroporation. PCR results indicated that the appA-m expression box has integrated into the genome of Pichia pastoris and the original construction of phytase gene has not changed. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed that phytase was overexpressed and secreted into the medium supernatant. Recombinants with high expression level were screened and used for fermentation. In 5L fermentor, the expression level of phytase protein achieved 4 mg/mL and the phytase activity (fermentation potency) exceeded 1.2 x 10(7) IU/mL, which was about 1.6-fold compared with that of the host strain 74#. Moreover, the improved recombinant Pichia pastoris is excellent at expression stability and heredity stability.

The hybrid xylanase TB was constructed by the substitution of the N-terminus segment of the Streptomyces olivaceoviridis xylanase XYNB with corresponding region of Thermomonosporafusca xylanase TfxA. The hybrid gene tb, encoding the TB, was correctly expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 and Pichia pastoris GS115. TB was purified and its enzymatic properties were determined. The results revealed that the optimal temperature and optimal pH of TB were at 70 degrees C and 6.0, which have been obviously improved compared with those of XYNB. The thermostability of TB were all about six-fold of XYNB's after incubating the properly diluted enzyme solutions at 80 degrees C and 90 degrees C for 3min, respectively. The pH stability of TB was 5 to approximately 9, which was narrower than that of XYNB. Still, TB remains a high specific activity as XYNB does. Analysis of a homology modeling and sequence similarity were used to reveal the factors influencing the enzymatic properties of TB and the discussion for the relationship between structure and function of xylanase was given.

A homology modeling of xylanase XYNB from Streptomyces olivaceoviridis A1 was made by Swiss-Model. The hydrophobic Interaction between beta-sheet B1 and B2 in the tertiary structure model of XYNB was compared with other thermophilic xylanase. A T11Y mutation was introduced in XYNB by site-dirrected mutagenesis to improve the thermostability of the enzyme. The XYNB and mutant xylanase (XYNB') expressed in Pichia pastoris were purified and their enzymatic properties were determined. The result revealed that the thermostability of XYNB' was obviously higher than that of XYNB. The optimal temperature of XYNB' for its activity was 60 degrees C, similar to XYNB. But, compare to XYNB, the optimal pH value, the Km value and the specific activity of XYNB' had also been changed. The research results suggested that the aromatic interaction between beta-sheet B1 and B2 in xylanase should increase enzyme thermostability. The mutant xylanase XYNB' is a good material for further research in the relationship between structure and function of xylanase.
