The amino acid residue Asp 577 is located in calcium-binding site III (CaIII) of the cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.19, CGTase) from Bacillus circulans STB01. In the present study, the effects of replacing Asp577 with glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine on the catalytic efficiency of this CGTase were investigated. Two of these replacements, D577G and D577A, increased the beta-cyclization activity of CGTase. Kinetic studies showed that the K-m values of D577G and D577A were 36.1% and 18.0% lower and the k(cat)/K-m values were 43.9% and 23.0% higher than those of the wild-type enzyme, respectively. These mutations increased both the affinity of CGTase for maltodextrin and the catalytic efficiency of the cyclization reaction. Furthermore, although D577G and D577A only slightly enhanced beta-cyclodextrin production, compared with the wild-type enzyme, their higher beta-cyclization activities resulted in a significant reduction in the amount of mutant protein required during the cyclodextrin production process. Thus, the two mutants are more suitable for the industrial production of beta-cyclodextrin than the wild-type enzyme. The enhancement of catalytic efficiency may be due to the smaller size of the glycine and alanine side chains, which may weaken the impact of this residue on CaIII. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
