Simultaneous improvement of thermostability and maltotriose-forming ability of a fungal α-amylase for bread making by directed evolution.
International Journal of Biological Macromolecules 2024 Februrary 30
For applications in food industries, a fungal α-amylase from Malbranchea cinnamomea was engineered by directed evolution. Through two rounds of screening, a mutant α-amylase (mMcAmyA) was obtained with higher optimal temperature (70 °C, 5 °C increase) and better hydrolysis properties (18.6 % maltotriose yield, 2.5-fold increase) compared to the wild-type α-amylase (McAmyA). Site-directed mutations revealed that Threonine (Thr) 226 Serine (Ser) substitution was the main reason for the property evolution of mMcAmyA. Through high cell density fermentation, the highest expression level of Thr226Ser was 3951 U/mL. Thr226Ser was further used for bread baking with a dosage of 1000 U/kg flour, resulting in a 17.8 % increase in specific volume and a 35.6 % decrease in hardness compared to the control. The results were a significant improvement on those of McAmyA. Moreover, the mutant showed better anti-staling properties compared to McAmyA, as indicated by the improved sensory evaluation after 4 days of storage at 4 and 25 °C. These findings provide insights into the structure-function relationship of fungal α-amylase and introduce a potential candidate for bread-making industry.
