The gene encoding the cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) of Paenibacillus pabuli US132, previously described as efficient antistaling agent and good candidate for cyclodextrins production, was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli. Sequence analysis showed that the mature enzyme (684 amino acids) was preceded by a signal peptide of 34 residues. The enzyme exhibited the highest identity (94%) to the beta-CGTase of Bacillus circulans no. 8. The production of the recombinant CGTase, as active form, was very low (about 1 U/mL) in shake flasks at 37 degrees C. This production reached 22 U/mL after 22 hours of induction by mainly shifting the postinduction temperature from 37 to 19 degrees C and using 2TY instead of LB medium. High enzyme production (35 U/mL) was attained after 18 hours of induction in fermentor using the same culture conditions as in shake flask. The recombinant enzyme showed V(max) and K(m) values of 253 +/- 36 mumol of beta-cyclodextrin/mg/min and 0.36 +/- 0.18 g/L, respectively.

β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) is an important cyclic oligosaccharide, which is widely applicated in foods, environmental protection, and cosmetics, primarily prepared from enzymatic synthesis in traditional industry. However, several challenges persist, including cumbersome processes and difficulties in achieving continuous fermentation and catalysis. This research introduced a biofilm-based immobilized fermentation, integrating with enzyme catalysis system of surface display in Bacillus subtilis.

Article Synopsis
- * The study found that glycosylation efficiencies for various polyphenols were significantly higher—up to 20.9 times—compared to non-complexed systems.
- * The research identified the rate-limiting step in the glycosylation process, showing that the enzyme's ability to open cyclodextrin was much more effective than its ability to glycosylate polyphenols, leading to an optimal yield of 84.1% for rutin.

γ-Cyclodextrin (γ-CD) is an attractive material among the natural cyclodextrins owing to its excellent properties. γ-CD is primarily produced from starch by γ-cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (γ-CGTase) in a controlled system. However, difficulty in separation and low conversion rate leads to high production costs for γ-CD.
