AI Technical Summary
Existing industrial β-glucosidases have poor thermal stability and a narrow range of applicable reaction conditions, making them difficult to apply effectively to the bioenzymatic conversion of ginsenoside CK. Furthermore, the natural sources of rare ginsenoside CK are limited, making efficient production difficult.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, specifically relating to a β-glucosidase, its encoding gene, recombinant vector, engineered bacteria, and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21), also known as β-D-glucosidase or cellobiase, is an important component of the cellulose-degrading enzyme system. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of terminal non-reducing β-D-glycosidic bonds, producing β-D-glucose and its corresponding ligand. Furthermore, β-glucosidase can also act on glycosidic bonds between glycosyl groups and aromatic or hydrocarbon groups, degrading the corresponding glycosides to generate ligands (aglycones) and glucose. Therefore, β-glucosidase can be used in the degradation of glycosides to produce desired aglycone compounds. Currently, most industrially used β-glucosidases are derived from plants and mesophilic microorganisms. Their application is limited by poor thermal stability and a narrow range of applicable reaction conditions. β-glucosidases derived from thermophilic fungi, due to their good thermal stability, have potential applications in high-temperature industrial processes.
[0003] Ginsenosides are the main active ingredients isolated from ginseng plants. Compared to common saponins, rare saponins (CK) are difficult to isolate due to their limited natural sources, similar structures, and complex structures, making them challenging to synthesize. Ginsenoside CK is a steroid and has been proven to be the main active component of ginseng in the human body. Pharmacological studies have confirmed that ginsenoside CK exhibits high absorption rates in the blood and exerts pharmacological activity in vivo. As a drug, ginsenoside CK has attracted widespread attention due to its anti-tumor, anti-diabetic, anti-allergic, and hepatoprotective effects. However, rare ginsenoside CK is absent in ginseng and difficult to produce. Ginsenoside CK and ginsenoside Rb1 share the same core structure and belong to the PPD type of ginsenosides. Bioenzymatic conversion of derivatives with similar core structures but different degrees of glycosylation is more feasible. Compared to physical and chemical methods with harsh reaction conditions, bioenzymatic methods offer relatively mild, efficient, and specific reaction conditions, producing almost no waste and thus are pollution-free and environmentally friendly. Therefore, developing a highly efficient, specific, mild, low-cost, and environmentally friendly process for producing ginsenoside CK, converting ginsenoside Rb1 into rare ginsenoside CK, is an important approach. Using an enzymatic conversion method with low pollution and high purity and specificity to obtain rare ginsenoside CK is both an urgent practical need and has significant practical application value.
