The object of the present invention is to provide an &agr;-isomaltosylglucosaccharide-forming enzyme, process of the same, cyclotetrasaccharide, and saccharide composition comprising the saccharide which are obtainable by using the enzyme; and is solved by establishing an &agr;-isomaltosylglucosaccharide-forming enzyme which forms a saccharide, having a glucose polymerization degree of at least three and having both the &agr;-1,6 glucosidic linkage as a linkage at the non-reducing end and the &agr;-1,4 glucosidic linkage other than the linkage at the non-reducing end, by catalyzing the &agr;-glucosyl-transfer from a saccharide having a glucose polymerization degree of at least two and having the &agr;-1,4 glucosidic linkage as a linkage at the non-reducing end without substantially increasing the reducing power; &agr;-isomaltosyl-transferring method using the enzyme; method for forming &agr;-isomaltosylglucosaccharide; process for producing a cyclotetrasaccharide having the structure of cyclo{→6)-&agr;-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-&agr;-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-&agr;-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-&agr;-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→} using both the &agr;-isomaltosylglucosaccharide-forming enzyme and the &agr;-isomaltosyl-transferring enzyme; and the uses of the saccharides obtainable therewith.
本发明的目的是提供一种α-异麦芽糊精葡萄糖醛酸形成酶、其制备方法、环四糖和含有使用该酶可获得的糖分的糖组成物;并通过建立一种α-异麦芽糊精葡萄糖醛酸形成酶来解决该问题,该酶可形成一种葡萄糖聚合度至少为三且具有α-1,6葡萄糖苷键作为非还原端连接和α-1,4葡萄糖苷键作为非还原端连接以外的连接的糖分,通过催化具有至少二个葡萄糖聚合度且具有α-1,4葡萄糖苷键作为非还原端连接的糖分的α-葡萄糖基转移而形成,而不实质性地增加还原能力;使用该酶的α-异麦芽糊精转移方法;形成α-异麦芽糊精葡萄糖醛酸的方法;使用α-异麦芽糊精葡萄糖醛酸形成酶和α-异麦芽糊精转移酶同时制备具有环四糖结构的环四糖的方法;以及使用可获得的糖分的用途。
