Spodoptera frugiperda IPLB-SF-21-AE cells were cultivated in a spin-filter bioreactor with continuous perfusion for the recombinant $\beta$-galactosidase production. At the perfusion rate of 0.06 $hr^{-1}$, the maximum cell density of insect cells in this bioreactor system reached 3.5$\times$$l0^6$ viable cells/ml using the Grace media containing 5% FBS and 0.3% Pluronic F-68. The recombinant $\beta$-galactosidase production of 8, 100 units per reactor volume was also achieved at this perfusion rate.

T-flask와 air-lift 생물반응기를 이용하여 Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV)의 Tn5B1-4 세포에의 감염시 fatty acid 및 lipid, mannose, folic acid, $CaCl_2$등의 배지 첨가물이 재조합 ${\beta}-galactosidase\;({\beta}-gal)$ 생산에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Cholesterol, tocopherol, tricaprylin 또는 mannose를 첨가하거나 folic acid를 보강첨가 했을 때 AcNPV의 재조합 ${\beta}-gal$ 생산은 향상되었으나 $CaCl_2$의 보강 첨가는 ${\beta}-gal$ 생산을 높이는데 효과적이지 못했다. Air-lift 생물반응기에서 0.34 mM cholesterol, 2.2 mM mannose 및 0.045 M folic acid를 보강 첨가한 배지를 이용하였을 때 재조합 ${\beta}-gal$ 생산은 basal medium에 비해 약 2배 정도의 증진 효과가 있었다.

Recombinant heterologous proteins can be produced as insoluble aggregates partially or perfectly inactive in Escherichia coli. One of the strateges to improve the solubility of recombinant proteins is fusion with a partner that is excellent in producing soluble fusion proteins. To improve the production of soluble $\beta$-galactosidase, the gene of Thermus thermophilus KNOUC112 $\beta$-galactosidase (KNOUC112 $\beta$-gal) was fused with thioredoxin gene, and optimization of its expression in E. coli TOP10 was performed. KNOUC112 $\beta$-gal in pET-5b was isolated out, fused with thioredoxin gene in pThioHis C, and transformed to E. coli TOP10. The $\beta$-galactosidase fused with thioredoxin was produced in E. coli TOP10 as dimer and trimer. The productivity of fusion $\beta$ -galactosidase expressed via pThioHis C at 37$^{\circ}C$ was about 5 times higher than that of unfused $\beta$-galactosidase expressed via pET-5b at 37$^{\circ}C$. Inclusion body of $\beta$-galactosidase was formed highly, regardless of the induction by IPTG when KNOUC112 $\beta$ -gal was expressed via pET-5b at 37$^{\circ}C$. Fusion $\beta$ -galactosidase expressed at 37$^{\circ}C$ via pThioHis C without the induction by IPTG was soluble, but the induction by IPTG promoted the formation of inclusion body. Lowering the incubation temperature for the expression of fusion gene under 25$^{\circ}C$ prevented the formation of inclusion body, optimally at 25$^{\circ}C$. 0.07 mM of IPTG was sufficient for the soluble expression of fusion gene at 25$^{\circ}C$. The soluble production of Thermus thermophilus KNOUC112 $\beta$-galactosidase could be increased about 10 times by fusion with thioredoxin, and optimization of incubation temperature and IPTG concentration for induction.

We observed that an inclusion body (IB) of recombinant ${\beta}$-galactosidase that was produced by the araBAD promoter system in Escherichia coli (E. coil) showed enzyme activity. In order to improve its activity, the lowering of the transcription rate of the ${\beta}$-galactosidase structural gene was attempted through competition between an inducer (L-arabinose) and an inducer analog (D-fucose). In the deep-well microtiter plate culture and lab-scale fermentor culture, it was demonstrated that the addition of D-fucose caused an improvement in specific ${\beta}$-galactosidase production, although ${\beta}$-galactosidase was produced as an IB. In particular, the addition of D-fucose after induction led to an increase in the specific activity of ${\beta}$-galactosidase IB. Finally, we confirmed that the addition of D-fucose after induction caused changes in the structure of ${\beta}$-galactosidase IB, with higher enzyme activity. Based on these results, we expect that an improved enzyme IB will be used as a biocatalyst of the enzyme bioprocess, because an enzyme IB can be purified easily and has physical durability.

Recent advances in recombinant DNA techniques have provided a tool for breeding of microorganisms of hyper production. Enzyme production by cloned microorganism has some advantages. They are ⅰ) Enzymes can be produced by a microorganism easily cultured ⅱ) Hyper production. ⅲ) In some cases, such as thermophilic enzyme gene is cloned in a mesophilic bacteria, the enzyme purification procedure can be simplified. One example, production of thermophilic ${\beta}$-galactosidase in B. subtilis will be presented. Bacillus stearothermophilus IAM 11001 produced three ${\beta}$-galactosidases, ${\beta}$-galactosidase I, II and III (${\beta}$-gal-I, II and III). By connecting restriction fragments of the chromosomal DNA to plasmid vector, followed by transformation of Escherichia coli, two ${\beta}$-galactosidase genes (bgaA and bgaB) located close to each other on the chromosome were cloned.

Effects of IPTG induction on cell growth and production of ${\beta}$-galactosidase-preS2 fusion protein (${\beta}$gal-preS2) were studied in a defined medium using a recombinant Escherichia coli JM109/pCMHB30. IPTG was added (0.2 mM) to induce the cloned-gene expression in the early-, mid-, and late-log growth phases. The most serious decreases in growth rate and plasmid stability were observed for the induction in the early-log growth phase. The expression level of ${\beta}$gal-preS2 attained by the induction in the mid-log phase was about 0.51 mg fusion protein/mg total cellular protein, which was 2- and 5-fold improvement over the levels obtained with the inductions in the early- and late-log phases. Formation of acidic byproducts including acetate and pyruvate showed different profiles during the fermentation period for each cases of induction; pyruvate was the major byproduct for the induction in the early-log phase while acetate production became more significant for the cases of inductions in the mid- and late-log phases.

Galactooligosaccharides (GOSs) are known to be selectively utilized by Bifidobacterium, which can bring about healthy changes of the composition of intestinal microflora. In this study, ${\beta}-GOS$ were synthesized using bifidobacterial ${\beta}-galactosidase$ (G1) purified from recombinant E. coli with a high GOS yield and with high productivity and enhanced bifidogenic activity. The purified recombinant G1 showed maximum production of ${\beta}-GOSs$ at pH 8.5 and $45^{\circ}C$. A matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry analysis of the major peaks of the produced ${\beta}-GOSs$ showed MW of 527 and 689, indicating the synthesis of ${\beta}-GOSs$ at degrees of polymerization (DP) of 3 and DP4, respectively. The trisaccharides were identified as ${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-galactopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-galactopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranose, and the tetrasaccharides were identified as ${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-galactopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-galactopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-galactopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranose. The maximal production yield of GOSs was as high as 25.3% (w/v) using purified recombinant ${\beta}-galactosidase$ and 36% (w/v) of lactose as a substrate at pH 8.5 and $45^{\circ}C$. After 140 min of the reaction under this condition, 268.3 g/l of GOSs was obtained. With regard to the prebiotic effect, all of the tested Bifidobacterium except for B. breve grew well in BHI medium containing ${\beta}-GOS$ as a sole carbon source, whereas lactobacilli and Streptococcus thermophilus scarcely grew in the same medium. Only Bacteroides fragilis, Clostridium ramosum, and Enterobacter cloacae among the 17 pathogens tested grew in BHI medium containing ${\beta}-GOS$ as a sole carbon source; the remaining pathogens did not grow in the same medium. Consequently, the ${\beta}-GOS$ are expected to contribute to the beneficial change of intestinal microbial flora.

After overproduction of a recombinant $\beta$-galactosidase of Bifidobacterium infantis in Pichia pastoris, a synthesis of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) from 36% lactose using the enzyme (170.74 U/mg) was investigated. The transgalactosylation ratio reached up to 25.2% with 83.1% conversion of initial lactose and the maximum yield of GOS was 40.6%. The GOS syrup was composed of a 13.43% galacto-oligosaccharides, 5.06% lactose, and 8.76% monosaccharides. The prebiotic effect of GOS on the growth of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli strains was investigated in vitro. The maximum growth rate of Bifidobacterium breve and Lactobacillus acidophillus in GOS syrup (5%, v/v) media were 0.49 and 0.96/hr that are higher than those in 1%(w/v) galactose and 1%(w/v) lactose containing media. However, there was no significant difference between the specific growth rates of L. acidophillus in 1%(w/v) glucose and 5%(v/v) GOS syrup. Our data showed that GOS definitely promoted the growth of B. breve ATCC $15700^T$ and L. acidophilus ATCC 33323.
