An endo-1,3-ß-glucanase was purified from Tunicase®, a crude enzyme preparation from Cellulosimicrobium cellulans DK-1, and determined to be a 383-residue protein (Ala1-Leu383), comprising a catalytic domain of the glycoside hydrolase family 16 and a C-terminal carbohydrate-binding module family 13. The Escherichia coli expression system of the catalytic domain (Ala1-Thr256) was constructed, and the protein with N-terminal polyhistidine tag was purified using a Ni-nitrilotriacetic acid column. We analyzed enzymatic properties of the recombinant catalytic domain, its variants, and the Tunicase®-derived full-length endo-1,3-ß-glucanase. Substitution of Glu119 with Ala and deletion of Met123, both of the residues are located in the catalytic motif, resulted in the loss of hydrolytic activity. In comparison between the full-length enzyme and isolated catalytic domain, their hydrolytic activities for soluble substrates such as laminarin and laminarioligosaccharides were similar. In contrast, the hydrolytic activity of the full-length enzyme for insoluble substrates such as curdlan and yeast-glucan was significantly higher than that of the catalytic domain. It should be noted that the acid stabilities for the hydrolysis of laminarin were clearly different. Secondary structure analysis using circular dichroism showed that the full-length enzyme was more acid stable than was the catalytic domain, possibly because of domain interactions between the catalytic domain and the carbohydrate-binding module.
