An intracellular beta-glycoside hydrolase with beta-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase activity, designated beta-glucosidase BGL1, was isolated to apparent homogeneity from the thermophilic ascomycete Talaromyces thermophilus CBS 236.58. The monomeric enzyme has a molecular mass of 50 kDa (SDS-PAGE) and an isoelectric point of 4.5-4.6. The enzyme is active with both glucosides such as cellobiose and galactosides including lactose; based on the catalytic efficiencies determined glucosides are the preferred substrates. beta-Galactosidase activity of BGL1 is activated by various mono and divalent cations including Na+, K+ and Mg2+, and it is moderately inhibited by its reaction products glucose and galactose. Its pH optimum for the hydrolysis of galactosides is in the range of 5.5-6.0, and its optimum temperature was found to be 50 degrees C (15 min assay). In addition to its hydrolytic activity, BGL1 shows a significant transferase activity which results in the formation of galacto-oligosaccharides. These have recently attracted interest because of possible applications in food industry. The highest yields of oligosaccharides was approximately 20% when using 38 g 1(-1) lactose as the starting material. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
