Abstract
- [Display omitted] • Multigene integration in A. niger was achieved using a modified CRISPR-Cas9 system. • The xynA activity in A. niger was enhanced 3,650-fold via a combined strategy. • A two-step enzymatic pathway for extracting β-glucan (85.1% purity) was developed. The high cost and process complexity limit the enzymatic extraction of β-glucan. In this study, β-glucan was extracted from oat bran in a two-step enzymatic pathway using a recombinant strain of Aspergillus niger AG11 overexpressing the endogenous xylanase (xynA) and amylolytic enzyme. First, co-optimization of promoter and signal peptide and a fusion of glucoamylase (glaA) fragment were integrated into the β-glucosidase (bgl) locus to improve xynA expression. Then, the optimized expression cassette was simultaneously integrated into bgl , α-amylase amyA , and acid α-amylase ammA loci, yielding the Rbya with 3,650-fold and 31.2% increase in xynA and amylolytic enzyme activity than the wild-type strain, respectively. Finally, Rbya's supernatants at 72 h (rich in xynA and amylolytic enzyme) and 10 d (rich in proteases) were used to decompose xylan/starch and proteins in oat bran, respectively, to obtain 85.1% pure β-glucan. Rbya could be a robust candidate for the cost-effective extraction of β-glucan. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
