Efficient production and characterization of a newly identified trehalase for inhibiting the formation of bacterial biofilms.
International journal of biological macromolecules(2024)
摘要
Trehalase has attracted widespread attention in medicine, agriculture, food, and ethanol industry due to its ability to specifically degrade trehalose. Efficient expression of trehalase remains a challenge. In this study, a putative trehalase-encoding gene (Tre-zm) from Zunongwangia mangrovi was explored using gene-mining strategy and heterologously expressed in E. coli. Trehalase activity reached 3374 U·mL-1 after fermentation optimization. The scale-up fermentation in a 15 L fermenter was achieved with a trehalase production of 15,068 U·mL-1. The recombinant trehalase TreZM was purified and characterized. It displayed optimal activity at 35 °C and pH 8.5, with Mn2+, Sn2+, Na+, and Fe2+ promoting the activity. Notably, TreZM showed significant inhibition effect on biofilm forming of Staphylococcus epidermidis. The combination of TreZM with a low concentration of antibiotics could inhibit 70 % biofilm formation of Staphylococcus epidermidis and 28 % of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Hence, this study provides a promising candidate for industrial production of trehalase and highlights its potential application to control harmful biofilms.
