Abstract

Inulo-oligosaccharides (IOSs), a novel food additive and health product, represent a promising alternative to antibiotics. As prebiotics, IOSs can be obtained from inulin by endo-inulinase-mediated hydrolysis. Nonetheless, enzymatic catalysis is not feasible industrially because of the required catalytic conditions and cost. In this study, a 2331-bp optimized gene inuQ (from Pseudomonas mucidolens) encoding endo-inulinase was cloned into shuttle vector PHY300PLK and transfected into Bacillus subtilis WB800-R, with the simultaneous deletion of gene sacC encoding levanase. The maximal IOS yield after hydrolysis of the crude extract of inulin was 67.84 ± 0.72 g/L for a recombinant strain with the signal peptide nprB from alkaline protease and promoter P43. The conversion rate reached 75.38%. For the major IOSs, the degree of polymerization was between 3 and 5. This study offers a simple and efficient one-step bioprocess for IOS production from inulin through secretion of an extracellular heterologous endo-inulinase by B. subtilis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 June 2018.
All research outputs
#17,980,413
of 23,090,520 outputs
Outputs from Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology
#1,734
of 2,533 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#236,688
of 328,114 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology
#10
of 28 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,090,520 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,533 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.2. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 328,114 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 28 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its contemporaries.
