英文摘要Levoglucosan, cellulosic pyrolysate, is converted to glucose-6-phosphate by a specific levoglucosan kinase in fungi. A novel cDNA of levoglucosan kinase gene (lgk) from yeast Lipomyces starkeyi YZ-215 was isolated by RACE method. The 1,445 bp cDNA fragment (lgk) harbouring the kinase gene exhibited one open reading frame (ORF) composed of 1,317 bp flanked by a 14 bp 5'-UTR and a 114 bp 3'-UTR, including a 25 bp poly(A) tail. The ORF encoded a 439 amino acid polypeptide with a 48.4 kDa predicted molecular mass. Analysis of amino sequence revealed that the kinase belonged to the bacterial anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid kinase (AnmK) family, and kinase-like proteins existed in some fungi, especially in filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus. The kinase gene was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), recombinant E. coli could grow in M9 minimal medium with levoglucosan as a sole carbon source when induced by IPTG. In addition, the recombinant kinase was overexpressed, purified and characterized. The kinase was stable at pH 7-10 and showed maximum activity at 30A degrees C and pH 9.0 as natural kinase, but presented higher thermostability. Kinetic constants (apparent K (m) values) for LG and ATP were 105.3 +/- A 12.5 and 0.20 +/- A 0.02 mM, respectively. Furthermore, the kinase showed substrate specificity for LG. This novel levoglucosan kinase gene would be useful in constructing recombinant microbial strains for the efficient bioconversion of cellulosic pyrolysate to ethanol.
