Choukade R, Kango N
Characterization of a mycelial fructosyltransferase from Aspergillus tamarii NKRC 1229 for efficient synthesis of fructooligosaccharides
Food Chemistry 286 (2019) 434-440
 

An efficient system for biotransformation of sucrose to fructooligosaccharides (FOS) was obtained using Aspergillus tamarii NKRC 1229 mycelial fructosyltransferase (m-FTase). Zymographic analysis confirmed mycelial localization of the FTase (36 U/g) and lyophilized fungal pellets were used for bioconversion. m-FTase had molecular weight ~75 kDa with optimum activity at pH 7.0 and 20 °C. FOS production after parametric optimization (sucrose - 50% w/v, m-FTase dose - 4.5% w/v, inoculum age - 48 h and incubation time - 24 h) reached 325 g/L (55% yield) with 14% residual sucrose, 25% glucose and 6% fructose. FTase activity was enhanced after pre-treatment with organic solvents and SDS. FOS was purified in a single step using gel filtration matrix, Bio-Gel P2. FOS was characterized using Diffusion ordered spectroscopy-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H DOSY-NMR) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Continuous generation of FOS was achieved using recyclable mycelia upto 10 consecutive cycles.
