The α-galactosidase that effectively catalyzes a reverse reaction of galactose, Aspergillus niger APC-9319 α-galactosidase, was screened from industrial enzyme preparations for food processing containing α-galactosidase activity. Reverse reaction of A. niger APC-9319 α-galactosidase was performed using a supersaturated solution (90% galactose [w/v]). A. niger APC-9319 α-galactosidase was not inhibited even in high substrate concentration, and effectively catalyzed the reverse reaction. The yield of the reaction product, α-linked galactooligosaccharide (α-GOS), increased greatly as the initial concentration of galactose increased to 90% (w/v), and was more than 50%. Furthermore, the half life of enzyme activity was about three times as long as that using 60% galactose (w/v). α-GOS (1.4 g) was prepared from galactose (3.0 g) by reverse reaction of A. niger APC-9319 α-galactosidase. The α-GOS contained 58% α-galactobiose (α-Gal2), 28% α-galactotriose, and 14% oligosaccharides larger than α-galactotriose. The main component of positional isomers in α-Gal2 was α-1,6Gal2.
从含有α-半乳糖苷酶活性的食品加工工业酶制剂中筛选出能有效催化半乳糖逆反应的Aspergillus niger APC-9319 α-半乳糖苷酶。使用过饱和溶液(90%半乳糖[w/v])进行A. niger APC-9319 α-半乳糖苷酶的逆反应。即使在高的底物浓度下,A. niger APC-9319 α-半乳糖苷酶也没有被抑制,并且能有效催化逆反应。反应产物α-半乳糖寡糖(α-GOS)的产率随着半乳糖初始浓度的增加而大幅增加,达到90%(w/v)时超过50%。此外,酶活性的半衰期约为使用60%半乳糖(w/v)时的三倍。通过A. niger APC-9319 α-半乳糖苷酶的逆反应,从3.0 g半乳糖制备了1.4 g的α-GOS。α-GOS含有58%的α-半乳二糖(α-Gal2),28%的α-半乳三糖,以及14%的大于α-半乳三糖的寡糖。α-Gal2中的主要位置异构体是α-1,6Gal2。
