AI Technical Summary
Existing heparan sulfate enzymes are insufficient in terms of thermal stability and substrate specificity, making it difficult to meet industrial requirements. Furthermore, existing heparin lyases also lack sufficient thermal stability, hindering their ability to cleave substrate structures and limiting the precision analysis of complex glycan structures.
Using heparan sulfate enzyme (WJS HPSE) derived from the white jade snail, the coding sequence of WJS HPSE was isolated from the white jade snail using gene cloning technology. Recombinant expression was achieved using an insect baculovirus expression system, and high-purity active enzyme was obtained by affinity chromatography purification. WJS HPSE exhibited the best catalytic activity at pH 4.0 and 57℃, and can efficiently and specifically cleave the β-1,4 glycosidic bond between IdoA2S or GlcA and GlcNAc.
WJS HPSE exhibits significantly superior thermal stability compared to human HPSE and possesses the ability to efficiently and specifically cleave HS and heparin glycan chains. It is suitable for applications such as HS glycan structure analysis and low molecular weight heparin preparation, providing a novel tool enzyme for glycan structure analysis and targeted preparation of pharmacological oligosaccharide fragments.
