| Abstract: | The gene of xylanase (xynA) was amplified by RT-PCR from the total RNA of a themophilic fungus Thermomyces lanuginosus SY2. The sequence analysis showed that gene coding region of mature peptide contained 0.585 kb, which coded 194amino acids. The putative amino acid sequence and DNA sequence of xylanase from T. lanuginosus SY2 (GenBank no.:GU166389) were 98.97 and 99.49% identical to the other T. lanuginosus (GenBank no.: U35436). A recombinant plasmid pPIC9K-xynA was constructed by inserting gene xynA into Pichia pastoris secretory vector pPIC9K. Linearized pPIC9K-xynA was transformed into P. pastoris GS115 with the method of electroporation. The recombinant strain was identified by G418 selection and confirmed by PCR analysis. It was induced by 1.0% methanol at 28℃ to express the recombinant xylanase. The results showed that the recombinant xylanase was secreted into extracellular fermentation liquid. The highest enzyme activity of 113.5 IU mL-1 and protein content of 889.7 μg mL-1 were detected for 216 h of induction. The optimal pH value and temperature of the enzyme activity was 5.5 and 65℃, respectively. The xylanase activity retained above 80% from pH value 2.5 to 8.5 for 48 h. The enzyme activity was above 85% at incubation temperature of 55℃. |
