Though some genetic features of lactobacillar fructan hydrolases were elucidated, information about their enzymology or mutational analyses were scarce. Lactobacillus casei IAM1045 exhibits extracellular activity degrading inulin. After partial purification of the inulin-degrading protein from the spent culture medium, several

Inulinase (β-2,1-D- fructan fructanohydrolase), EC 3.2.1.7, targets the β-2,1 linkage of inulin, a polyfructan consisting of linear β-2,1 linked fructose, and hydrolyzes it into fructose. This use provides an alternative to produce fructose syrup through the hydrolysis of inulin. The

The aim of this study is to improve exoinulinase production by expression of a cloned exoinulinase gene inuA1 (GenBank accession no. JF961344) from Penicillium janthinellum strain B01 in Pichia pastoris. A full-length cDNA of exoinulinase gene (inuA1) was cloned from

Ethanol fermentation from Jerusalem artichoke tubers by recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains expressing the inulinase gene (inu) from Kluyveromyces marxianus was investigated. The inu native and pgk promoters were used to drive the expression of the inu gene, and the inulinase

To date, all of microbial inulinases reported showed optimal activity at pH values ranging from 3.5 to 7.0. A bacterial strain, Marinimicrobium sp. LS-A18, showing high extracellular inulinolytic activity was isolated from a marine solar saltern of the Yellow Sea
