Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a glucoamylase with better thermal stability, and also relates to the encoding gene and application of the thermostable glucoamylase. Background technique
[0002] Glucoamylase (α-1,4-Glucanglucohydrolases, EC3.2.1.3) is an exo-active glycosidase, which can use starch, dextrin and other polysaccharides or oligosaccharide carbon chains as substrates to convert from non-reducing glucoamylases. End-to-end hydrolysis of α-1,4-glucosidic bonds one by one to generate β-D-glucose, and can also slowly hydrolyze α-1,6-glucosidic bonds of amylopectin to generate glucose. It is one of the main enzymes in the process of hydrolyzing starch to generate glucose. First, it has important commercial value in the fields of food processing, ethanol production and brewing.
[0003] The glucoamylase currently used in the market is basically produced by fermentation of Aspergillus niger. Although the enzyme activity is high, the optimum temperature ...
