Objective To prepare endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (Endo-H) expressed in Pichia pastoris, and apply it to N-glycosylation analysis .Methods One complete gene was synthesized on the basis of the cDNA sequence encoding Streptomyces plicatus reported in GenBank .The gene was cloned into the expression vector pPIC 9.The expression vector pPIC9-Endo-H was transformed into P.pastoris(JC308).The expression products were induced by methanol , puri-fied by two-step chromatography , used to analyze the glycan structures of RNaseB by the DNA sequencer assisted fluoro-phore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (DSA-FACE)methods, and finally compared with peptide-N-asparagine amidase F(PNGase F).Results This enzyme expressed in P.pastoris(JC308) had the ability to hydrolyze natural or denatured high-mannose type of oligosaccharide linked by β-1,4-glycosidic bonds , but not complex-type oligosaccharide .The result of DSA-FACE showed that carbohydrate chains of Man 5 GlcNAc-Man9 GlcNAc could be obtained when RNaseB was hydrolyzed by Endo-H, and that Man5 GlcNAc2-Man9 GlcNAc2 chains became available when RNaseB was hydrolyzed by PNGase F . Conclusion Endo-H expressed in P.pastoris has bioactivity which can be used to analyze N-glycosylation with the method of DSA-FACE.

Intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) are common in the clinical practice, which include a variety of patholo-gical conditions. Severe IAIs can lead to sepsis, secondary organ dysfunction, and threaten the lives of patients. Patients with IAIs are under a high metabolic reaction, and often have gastrointestinal dysfunction, manifesting as impaired intestinal mucosal barrier function, out of control in intestinal flora regulation, and continuous loss of nutrients. The body is in a malnutrition condition, and body resistance severely declines, which further aggravates disease progression. Intestinal micro-ecology is the largest and most complex ecosystem in the human body. In the case of coexistence of many bacteria, the synergy and antagonism between different strains maintain the balance of digestive tract microecology. Intestinal flora and nutritional status under IAIs have their particularity. Understanding the mechanism of intestinal flora abnormalities under IAIs, reasonable and effective nutritional support treatment and management is essential for improving the prognosis of patients with IAIs.
