    Cloning of AA9 Polysaccharide Monooxygenase gene AN3860 into pEX2B for expression in Aspergillus oryzae
    (Trường Đại học Nguyễn Tất Thành, 2020-06-29) Ngo, Thi Cam Nhung; Vu, Van Van
    Polysaccharide monooxygenases (PMOs) catalyze oxidative degradation of recalcitrant carbohydrate chains in cellulose, starch, and chitin. In biofuel industry, the conversion of rich lignocellulose source to fermentable sugars by hydrolytic cellulases can be synergistically boosted by cellulose-active PMOs (AA9 PMOs) found in a vast number of fungi that grow on biomass. Aspergillus nidulans, a filamentous fungus, possess a dozen of PMO-encoding genes, but only the AN3860 is expressed at a high level when cultured with wheat straw as the sole carbon source. Bioinformatic analysis indicates that AN3860 belongs to type 3 AA9 PMO subfamily that is capable of hydroxylating both C1 and C4 of the glycosidic linkages. Therefore, AN3860 may be a potential enzyme to improve cellulose hydrolysis efficiency, which has not been characterized. In this study, we describe the AN3860 cloning into Aspergillus oryzae AUT1-PlD. To facilitate the purification of AN3860, we added a CBM20 tag to its C-terminal. The recombinant vector was designed and constructed successfully. Simultaneously, we have obtained the clone of A. oryzae carrying the target gene by the ATMT method. Further expression optimization and characterization of AN3860 by both activity assays and spectroscopic techniques are underway.

    Study on AA10 expression in E. coli
    (Trường Đại học Nguyễn Tất Thành, 2021) Vu, Van Van; Ngo, Thi Cam Nhung
    The GlcNAc-binding protein A (GbpA) has been known as a virulent factor of Vibrio vulnificus pathogen. Domain 1 of GbpA adhesion takes responsibility of binding both human intestine and the chitinous surface. The domain 1 structure is similar to a polysaccharide monooxygenase (PMO) AA10-type (PMO), which catalyzed oxidation toward the recalcitrant chitin polymer. The role of the VvPMO10 module in catalytic functions has not been fulfilled characterized. To aim of the VvPMO10 study, this protein was cloned to the pET22b system and transformed into the E. coli BL21 (DE3) strain. The recombinant enzyme was expressed at 37 0C with IPTG induced. Total protein was checked by SDS-PAGE method and stained using Coomassie blue solution. The target band showed a band of 20 kDa as expectation. Thus, the heterologous protein was expressed successfully in E. coli BL21 (DE3) strain and becomes the materials for future study.
