Abstract: In order to study the effects of N-glycosylation on enzymological properties of phytase phy(QF), the recombinant phytase gene phy(QF) was expressed in pichia pastoris GS115.Phytase phy(QF) was deglycosylated by endoglycosylase Endo Hf.Enzymology properties of glycosylated phy(QF) and deglycosylated phy(QF) were analyzed.The results showed that the glycosylated phy(QF) had a specific activity of 3 201 U/mg with an MW of approximately 53 kDa and the Km and Vmax of glycosylated phy(QF) were 392 μmol/L and 3 267 U/mg, respectively.The optimal pH value of glycosylated phy(QF) was 4.5 and was consistented with that of deglycosylated phy(QF).However, the optimal temperature of glycosylated phy(QF) was 55 ℃, 5 ℃ higher than that of deglycosylated phy(QF) and 2 ℃ increased in the melting temperature (Tm).The glycosylated phy(QF) exhibited 13% residual activity after treatment at 70 ℃ for 10 min and deglycosylated phy(QF)was completely deactivated under the condition.As one of posttranslational modifications, N-glycosylation may play an important role in improving the stability of phytase phy(QF).

Key words: Phytase, N-glycosylation, Pichia pastoris, Thermal stability, Circular dichroism
