Enzyme activity: Bgl162 β-glucosidase catalyses deglycosylations and transglycosylation reactions with retaining mechanism. The enzyme can both catalyse hydrolysis of various glycosides and transglycosylations with alcohols.

Activity determination: Glycosidase activity was determined at 85°C in a 20 mM citrate phosphate buffer at pH 5.6 and incubated for 5 minutes with 2.92 mM final concentration of p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucanopyranoside.

 

Unit definition: One unit (U) of enzyme activity is the amount that leads to the release of 1 μmol of p-nitrophenyl from p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucanopyranoside (pNPG) per minute.

 

Synonyms: β-glucosidase, glycoside hydrolase, β-D-glucoside glucohydrolase

Substrates and Applications:

Polyphenol glycoside hydrolysis: The enzyme may be used for hydrolysis of various glycosides such as polyphenol glycosides including naturally occurring antioxidants such as quercetin-glycosides found in various vegetables (Fig. 2). For complete hydrolysis of 1 μmol of quercetin-4-glycoside in 5 minutes at 80°C and pH 5.5, about 28 pmol (~25 μg) enzyme was needed (Turner et al 2006)

 

Alkyl glycoside synthesis: The enzyme may be used for transglycolysation with alcohols as acceptors such as in  synthesis of alkyl glycosides. At 60°C, the ratio of alcoholysis to hydrolysis is 5.1 with a pNPG conversion rate of 153U/mg whereas at 90°C the ratio of alcoholysis to hydrolysis is 4.5 and the pNPG conversion rate of is 831U/mg. (Turner et al. 2007)
