- Abstract: D-mannose has many functional activities and is widely used in food, medicine, agriculture and other industries. D-mannitol oxidase that can efficiently convert D-mannitol into D-mannose has potential application in the enzymatic preparation of D-mannose. A D-mannitol oxidase (PsOX) was found from Paenibacillus sp. HGF5. The similarity between PsOX and the D-mannitol oxidase (AldO) from Streptomyces coelicolor was 50.94%. The molecular weight of PsOX was about 47.4 kDa. A recombinant expression plasmid pET-28a-PsOX was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The Km and kcat/Km values of PsOX for D-mannitol were 5.6 mmol/L and 0.68 L/(s·mmol). Further characterization of PsOX showed its optimal pH and temperature were 7.0 and 35 ℃, respectively, while its enzyme activity could be stably remained below 60 ℃. The molar conversion rate of 400 mmol/L D-mannitol by PsOX was 95.2%. The whole cells of PsOX and AldO were used to catalyze 73 g/L D-mannitol respectively. The reaction catalyzed by PsOX completed in 9 h and 70 g/L D-mannose was produced. PsOX showed a higher catalytic efficiency compared to that of AldO. PsOX may facilitate the enzymatic preparation of D-mannose as a novel D-mannose oxidase.
